Kim Kardashian held up at gunpoint in Paris

Where was her armed guard?

Private bodyguards can't legally be armed.

There are easier ways to get attention..... She could have just made another video !!

A police source is saying there was at least 5 men wearing jackets marked "POLICE", not just two.
No bodyguard present.
The hotel concierge was held at gun and handcuffed.
Kardashian was tied up in her bathroom, her wedding ring (apparently worth 4 million dollars), 2 cellphones and a box of jewlery was stolen.
Most of the jewlery might not have been her property, probably lended to her why she was at the fashion week.

Kardashian at Fashion Week. TMZ's equivalent of Pimp my Ride.

...Pimp my Ride.

That's what Kanye says when he buys her jewelry.

Another article cofirmed Kim Kardashian's bodyguard as out at the time of the robbery.
Apparently he also protects the other sisters who were at a club nearby when the robbery took place.

Wow. "Several million dollars worth of jewelry stolen". I am somewhat surprised that was not in the hotel safe?

Bank is gonna be pi$$ed when they find out they've lost their collateral

Hate to see any one robbed, hope the thieves get caught before they hurt anyone.

So, he has money troubles and she gets robbed of ten mil in jewelry. Yep, seems legit.

Lots of celebrities borrow jewlery to go to fashion shows and special events.It doens't mean she owned the jewlery she had with her at the time.

The Pink Panther Gang.

They took something over $100 million in Cannes a few years ago.

I get it. Robbery is only bad when we like the victim or when the victim "needs" what was stolen.

Seems legit.

I'm posting this before reading through the full thread, but my first impression is that she most likely does not own the jewelry personally.

Aren't celebrities often being given clothes, cars, jewelry, etc. In exchange for promoting the designer, dealer, retailer etc.?

This stuff was almost certainly insured, which could be a motive for an inside job or insurance scam.

Where was Ryan lochte ?

Guaranteed those diamonds were over the border into Switzerland by 9AM France time. Most have probably been removed from their mounts already. They'll cut up the ring.

I guess there's something to be said for not posting your every move on social media.

That is her lively hood.

 

[longbow]

At least she didn't step on her cat.....she will recover. Something smells fishy to me........

 

[BogWalker]

Pretty professional job. If legit that's a group of guys that need caught.

Just sounds so much like something from a movie.

Yeah, not sure it has to be an inside job since she advertises what kind of jewlery she's wearing and her location.Several times a day apparently.
While her "famous bodyguard", who's also on Twitter, can be seen at a different location with her other famous sisters.
