Kris Jenner Says Kim Kardashian Couldn't Breathe Or See In Met Gala Outfit

Back in September, the Met Gala returned to New York City, with a packed event. Things seemed much more normal, as 2020's Met Gala was canceled, due to the COVID-19 pandemic.

One of the most interesting outfits of this year, was Kim Kardashian's Balenciaga attire. She sported an all black look, which included a mask, that covered her face. For much of the night, many attendees didn't even know that it was Kardashian, under that incognito outfit.

Fans at home also wondered if Kim could even see anything, or had trouble breathing through it. According to her mother, Kris Jenner, this was the case. Kris appeared on The Ellen DeGeneres Show, and went into detail. She revealed that her boyfriend, Corey Gamble, helped Kim walk through the venue.

"The whole evening of the Met Ball, Kim couldn't see and she couldn't breathe. So my boyfriend Corey was walking around, we were all together, and he was leading her to where we were supposed to go and helping with her ponytail. Suddenly he was somebody pulling her around and a hairstylist all at the same time."

During Kris' TV appearance, she also revealed how Kim decided to have even more fun, at the Met Gala. Kim went on to do a quick dance, which was labeled as "funny," to Kris.

"Halfway through the Met Ball they asked [Kardashian West] to do something, like do a dance for Vogue. And we were on the stage. She had no idea what she was doing. It was so funny."

With Kim's Met Gala outfit, it reminded many of how Kanye West dresses now, who is her estranged husband. Lately, Kanye has been seen wearing attire which covers his face, and these looks have since transitioned to Kim. According to PEOPLE, Kim was introduced to Balenciaga's Creative Director Demna Gvasalia, by Kanye.

"Even though Kanye is not attending tonight, his presence will be felt on the carpet," said a source to PEOPLE. "It was Kanye who introduced Kim to Demna and was instrumental in the newly formed relationship between her and Balenciaga."

Kim is also part of one of the biggest trending topics of 2021, which is the fact that she and Kanye are going through a divorce. This was initially announced back in the first few days of January, and documents were officially filed by Kim, in mid-February. She is being assisted by attorney, Laura Wasser.

Recently, Kim also received her and Kim's Hidden Hills home, which was initially bought by the two, in 2014. At the time, it was purchased for $20 million. Now, the property is said to be worth $60 million. Kim was able to reach a buyout with Kanye though, where she paid $20 million. Kanye also recently purchased a home in Malibu, for $5.3 million, which is one of the rarest homes in the US.
