Kim's multimillion dollar robbery is raising some eyebrows. Could it have been the means to create a media firestorm? Because that's exactly what's happening. According to a report from TMZ on Tuesday, there was no surveillance video inside or outside the ultra-expensive, ultra-private hotel. Is that even possible?
How did Kardashian free herself from being tied up in the bathroom? Or who found Kardashian in the hotel room or bathroom? Where was her security and hotel security personnel or hotel security cameras,” wonders pivate investigator Patricia D’Orsa-Dijamco. “If this was a publicity stunt, she could be in big trouble for making a false police report. Does 'Ryan Lochte' sound familiar?”
Lochte is the U.S. swimmer who got in hot water at the Rio Olympics for claiming he was robbed at gunpoint, which later turned out not to be the case.He's also the only Olympian that wasn't invited to the White House.
According to the news, Kanye was performing when he heard about the robbery. He stopped mid-song and abruptly ended his performance at the Meadows Music & Arts Festival in New York. The news was that thieves dressed as police officers had broken into her hotel room, tied her up in her bathtub, and held her at gunpoint while stealing more than $10 million worth of jewelry, including her $4 million engagement ring.
Kim wasn't hurt, and flew to New York on a private jet as soon as she could. And while Paris authorities are taking the robbery very seriously, the internet believes that it may be a publicity stunt.
Social media is going crazy about the story. Like B28KING, who tweeted: "This Kim Kardashian story is so fake."
One internet news site even laid out a complete case for the story being “bullshit.”
On the other hand, Kim has her ardent social media defenders who claim that she doesn't need any stunts to make headlines. Her famous friends stood up for her too. Like James Corden, who tweeted: “People making jokes about @KimKardashian tonight would do well to remember that she’s a mother, a daughter, a wife, a friend. Be nice or shut up”
One thing is true: she doesn't need to do anything to draw media attention towards her. She's being followed 24/7. And it just took a couple of missing undergarments during Paris Fashion Week to have the whole world talking about her. So, if the robbery was true or fake, only time will tell...
