Cocoa Puff October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 I just had a thought as i was walking my dog, the reason why there weren't many security cameras at the "no name hotel" is due to they cater to celebrities and they don't want to have anything caught on security cameras to be sold to the highest bidder. Like the Jay-Z Solange elevator fight, if you watched that video it was someone recording the feed off the screen using thier cell phone. Or like most have said the famous folks have thier own security so no need for it to be like fort Knox, but i bet you they'll have strict access now. 4 Link to comment
ChocolateAddict October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 56 minutes ago, HumblePi said: I think that what the majority of comments are saying is that it's all bullshit and she did it for publicity, That's what I think. I'm suspicious about some of the details but there is definitely a theme on social media (not as much here) that she deserved it for posting selfies and being on Instagram. Twitter comments about it are disgusting. 1 Link to comment
Gemma Violet October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 3 hours ago, bethster said: Why go to the time and trouble to bind and gag Kim, and put her in the bathroom? Time is of the essence in a robbery, one robber had a gun, Kim was terrified, why not just hold her at gunpoint while the other robbers ransacked the place (or went for various items quite methodically)? In, and out. The goal of the robbery wasn't hurting Kim in any way (otherwise they would have shot her). It was her stuff that they were after. Being held at gunpoint would have been sufficient to subdue her while they robbed her. If they had only held her at gunpoint, Kim would have called for help the moment they stepped out the door, increasing the chances of their capture. By tying her up and gagging her, they had a few minutes to escape. 1 Link to comment

I'm not friends with anyone remotely close to being as rich as Kim yet one look at my Instagram or Facebook feed and I see everyday people love to flaunt shit, even as you say if its a designer handbag. My boss' wife last year got mugged and her bag, a diamond ring and an expensive tennis bracelet stolen (found out later on is was the nephew of one of their neighbors who was the culprit). This woman was notorious for flashing her expensive jewelry around and even saying what things cost. She learned her lesson the hard way. I think the thing with celebrities, especially in the age of social media where people obsessively post everything is that you simply think it cant happen to you. Lesson learned hopefully. Even if Kim doesnt have the common sense to change her posting habits I can see people with a brain in her camp advising her. Edited October 5, 2016 by howmanywords Link to comment
merylinkid October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 I don't think Kim K deserved it, if it really happened. But much like the incident on the plane which no one ever corroborated, this seems like a publicity stunt. I just don't trust the family. Also, there is such a thing as discretion. Sure you should be able to walk naked down the street without getting raped, but it is not the smartest thing you could do. Maybe tone it down a bit just as a means of security. Should you walk around handing out your credit card number? No. It's still on the criminals who misuse it. But why give the bad guys an opportunity? We protect our credit card numbers because it's the prudent thing to do. So did she free herself as some places are claiming she said or did the assistant call the bodyguard who came and got everybody? 10 Link to comment

KLovestoShop October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 They said the robbers locked Kim in the bathroom. How many bathroom doors lock on the outside? I've traveled in Europe quite a bit and have never stayed in hotels where bathroom doors lock on the outside----only the inside. I also didn't know Kim had Houdini training And, if she were bound, and IF she did somehow manage to escape, has anyone seen marks on her wrists? That would be telling, either way Many security experts have said that she may have brought this all on herself with the constant Instagrams and all the rest. She tells people where she's going, and when. This gives criminals all the info they need to commit any crime. If she wants to continue with social media, she needs to post things AFTER she does them, and never before. 6 Link to comment

Jeanius October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 (edited) I get that people are dismayed at the "hate" towards Kim. Folks need a reality check sometimes. Not all people are "nice" like You and I are. There are Bad People out there. They might even be the cops that live next door. No one deserves to be robbed. No one deserves to be shot for being black. I am often reminded of an Oprah Winfrey show many moons ago. A nice young lady was on. She was in huge credit card debt. Because she only wanted "the best." The Best dining room table. etc. She asked, "Don't I deserve the best?" The commercials ask us, "Don't YOU deserve the best?" I asked myself, "What about those half-starving children in say, Africa. Don't THEY deserve the Best Dining Room Table as well?" Oprah never even addressed that statement. She seemed to agree, in a way. Well, yes, but we have to stay in budget!! Now we know Oprah, herself, deserves The Best of Everything. I get the same vibe from Kim. She deserves The Best. The Biggest Ring. The Sexiest Body. The Most Beautiful Face. Okay, Kim. You win, You ARE the best, most sexy thang ever. Can we all just go back to our crummy lives now? What does she want NOW??? MORE attention? (Yes.) Because what does Kim crave most of all - she calls it Validation, I call it Attention. Look at meeeeeeeeee. Okay, we're looking. Now what? Yes, we feel sorry for you. No one deserves it. But, .....???? Was there anything you may have done, or not done, Kim, to somehow make this robbery the seemingly easy job it was?? In, out, take the jewels, no blood. No one ELSE involved. The Boy Who Cried Wolf and all that. Karma, and all that. She's a big Show Off, and she got bit. She's lucky to be alive. Many aren't. Are we to marvel that five big brawly manly men didn't take a moment to caress the perfect dream girl's most perfect and sexiest body? And rape her? Or make a sex tape? THAT would have made Big Bucks. She should thank her lucky starts she wasn't at the very least conked on the head or pistol whipped. She needs to get her priorities in line. Money does NOT buy happiness. It DOES buy better security. If anything, the whole thing makes me question her judgement and intelligence. Edited October 5, 2016 by Jeanius Plus, duct tape.

laurakaye October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 It will be interesting to see, going forward, how the Kardashians react to Kim's robbery. Since they seem literally incapable of going anywhere or doing anything without posting it to social media, this is either going to be a huge lifestyle adjustment for them, or they'll think, "Hey, at least Kim didn't get hurt, life goes on," and continue to live their lives in public. They make a ton of money shilling crap on social media. They all have huge followings. This is how they live - the Kardashian brand and social media are heavily intertwined. I don't know if they can conceive of not being so extremely public, and if they decide to live a bit more under the radar, will that dry up the cash flow, the interest in them, and their entire relevance? Are they all going to be willing to give that up in the interest of family safety? Maybe this is the beginning of the end of the Kardashians. Without a strong social media presence, they really have nothing. 6 Link to comment

The folks who are so dismayed at the hate must not read the papers. Or look at any news sources at all. Much worse is going on than the hate for Kim. Why are people so mean to Kimmeeeeee?? YOU care, but Kimmee don't care. She cared about NOTHING, not one of us (unless we are clickbait. Sounds gross) and she STILL doesn't. She cares that she is "safe" with her Man and her Precious Children. They Are The Best!!! She cares about herself, then go from there. At the end of the day, I "blame" (aside from the Evil Doers who are On The Loose) Mr. Kardashian West for allowing his Treasure to sleep alone in DANGER. PURE DANGER. Sounds like any good-sized man with a gun and some duct tape could have done it. It was HIS place. At the end of the day, I have questions. Did she wash her face before beddy-bye? Put on some placenta paste? An eye mask? Was she very moisturized? Is that how she slipped her bonds?? Lot's of body butter?? (I smell an endorsement!!!) She slept in a robe? Was it belted securely?

I'm not sure what they'll do with it either, her rings from Kanye could easily be detected by someone fencing thee diamonds. It'll probably get them caught when they try to sell the jewelry.

DollEyes October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 (edited) My verdict: while I don't normally blame victims, I'm glad the kids weren't there and Kanye actually didn't act like an asshole for once, something about this whole thing just doesn't sit right with me. For one thing, people of the Kardashian's wealth can afford much more and much better security than Kim had. People of all kinds show off on social media, but few of them are pros at it, literally and figuratively, like Kim. Plenty of people are famous, but many of them don't feel the need to post everything about themselves every chance they get. For example, Prince William & Duchess Kate are even more rich & famous then Kim & Kanye, but they don't put all their business in the street. All those black SUVs in NYC upon Kim & Kanye's return made me roll my eyes to the point of blindness. As one paparazzi said, "President Obama doesn't get this much security." Given the past accusations of lying whenever something bad happens to them, all the skepticism about this incident alone and their being shallow and self-absorbed assholes who would do just about anything for attention, if Kim & Kanye try to pin this on Taylor Swift, I wouldn't be surprised.

The family is already putting their spin on things. Looks like they are trying to say they concierge may have been in on it because he was so calm even though he was zip tied and held at gunpoint. Well maybe he had some common sense not to scream and carry on. Notice he didn't get tossed into the bathtub or duct taped either. Just because he was calm doesn't mean he was in on it. Kourtney is already in Florida with Scott and the kids. I'm guessing she wants Mason and P away from all the press. She doesn't usually have much in terms of security with her, even when she has the kids out. But she also doesn't wear 4 million dollar rings. The paps were getting pics of her and asking about Kim.

There are a bunch of super rich super public celebrities who Almost definitely have security that rivals that of the President. If you can afford it then why not? Kim should have had heightened security years ago but no one wants to believe their lives are that much in danger until they get stalked by a nutso fan or robbed at gunpoint. The one thing that made perfect sense was the security. With every Paparazzi sticking a camera in her face and asking "if she was traumatized" I'd have hired a tank to take me home in her place.

Who wants a gigantic diamond ring,and wouldn't the buyer know it's stolen? I mean wouldn't it be easy to bust the person trying to sell it? And why is she traveling with so much excessively expensive jewelry? Dumbass. The BBC (?) explained in the aftermath of the robbery that diamond thieves would immediately set about carving up the enormous, easily recognizable diamond ring into smaller stones which can be sold without raising any alarms. They also have ways of removing the microscopic signature that identified the diamond. It's apparently not out of the realm of possibility that a buyer would put in a request for that specific piece of jewelry to be stolen, but it's unlikely. Not flashing expensive jewelry or any evidence of wealth in general, let alone while traveling, is common sense for everyone, not just celebs: the travel sections on most government websites give similar advice. Still I could see Kim having a false sense of security after having done it for years with no issues, and of course her lifestyle and her source of income is based on flaunting her wealth and high standard of living (excess and luxury are part of the brand), so it's a bit of a vicious cycle. When it comes to jewelry, I remember that I nixed a planned vacation with my partner to one of the safer countries in Central America because my partner (who had been born in that country) casually told me, even though I am not wealthy and have in the way of jewelry only two modest rings with no stones, "Oh, you couldn't wear any of your jewelry in public. No one can think you have money." My partner nonetheless insisted that said country was completely safe for travel and we would have no problems whatsoever...as long as no one believed we had any money. It probably would have been fine, but that was the end of that plan. Edited October 5, 2016 by Eyes High 5 Link to comment

She doesn't usually have much in terms of security with her, even when she has the kids out. But she also doesn't wear 4 million dollar rings. The paps were getting pics of her and asking about Kim. She asked them to please not ask in front of the kid and they stopped. She was also polite enough to thank them for refraining. Of all the girls I think she might be the one to really pull back from public life. She doesnt normally have security but even Kourtney came back from the Paris trip with a small entourage of security surrounding her. Quote Notice he didn't get tossed into the bathtub or duct taped either. Just because he was calm doesn't mean he was in on it. I dont think he was in on it either, but the concierge was bound, gagged and shoved and then locked into a stairwell compartment after he brought the robbers to Kim. Being calm didnt help him much either. 26 minutes ago, toolazy said: You think that she wasn't "hurt" just because she wasn't physically injured? Exactly. Emotional trauma can also last a lot longer than physical pain. 2 Link to comment
Jellybeans October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 I have a hard time seeing Kim as a person with emotions, given how her kids appear to be snapchat accessories. 9 Link to comment

The article I saw allegedly quoted Kim as saying he was strangely calm and that he was taken back to his desk by the robbers . No mention of gagging or shoving which of course could have happened after he was taken back out of her room. Unless all these quotes and stories are fake, someone in the inside circle is talking to the press. Link to comment

You see people on FB buying expensive handbags And posting pics of them and don't know where next months rent is coming from . Every has that friend who posts food porn from all the restaurants they partake of . The ones who tell you what airport and plane they are flying on and where vacations are at. Rixh people aren't the one one and they aren't the only ones getting robbed because of it! 19 hours ago, howmanywords said: So true. I'm not friends with anyone remotely close to being as rich as Kim yet one look at my Instagram or Facebook feed and I see everyday people love to flaunt shit, even as you say if its a designer handbag. My boss' wife last year got mugged and her bag, a diamond ring and an expensive tennis bracelet stolen (found out later on is was the nephew of one of their neighbors who was the culprit). This woman was notorious for flashing her expensive jewelry around and even saying what things cost. Trying to think of other celebs who flaunt jewelry or whatever else, and I honestly cannot think of anyone other than the Kardashians. I don't follow any of them on social media, but I see stuff online. I don't see people I know flaunting handbags and jewelry on FB or IG, but I also have friends who think that would be gauche, so no one does it. I guess the Kardashians do it because that is all they know how to do? I used to take the L (Chicago CTA) to work, and I would always turn my engagement ring around on my finger. If I was flashing it, I would be robbed. It was common sense to me. Am I to blame if I am robbed? Not REALLY, the robbers are to blame - but I know the risks - my safety is my priority. I could shout from the rooftops that people should not rob me, but at the end of the day, my safety is MY responsibility, and there are bad people in the world. 8 hours ago, iwasish said: She's thankful AFTER hearing the full story? Does that mean she was a doubter before? That turn of phrase caught my attention, too. I had to laugh. 4 hours ago, laurakaye said: Maybe this is the beginning of the end of the Kardashians. Without a strong social media presence, they really have nothing. We can only pray! I wonder if Kris (who has no soul) will tell her little moneymaker Kim to get back to work, posting crap and making cash, and Kanye may want her to take a step back. There may be a difference of opinions, I wonder which way Kim will go. 8 Link to comment
TheVoicesToldMeTo October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 21 hours ago, GaT said: They were all hired after the fact, she only had the one guy & he was out with Kendall & Kourtney. These "bodyguards" looked like they were plucked from central casting about 30 minutes earlier. 2 guys in suits (that don't even match) and 2 guys in sweats. One dude has boobs. Not to mention they're all watching Kim walk up stairs instead of looking around in the crowd or the street for threats. Psst! They're not real bodyguards! 11 Link to comment

I guess the Kardashians do it because that is all they know how to do? I'm going to give one example off the top of my head of a "celebrity"and I'm using him as an example because when it comes to stupidity he makes the Kardashians seem smart. The rapper 50 Cent regularly flaunts his wealth on instagram, but most noticeably he posted a picture of himself surrounded by stacks of 100 dollar bills while he was being investigated. for bankruptcy claims. So yeah really, its not just the Kardashians. I'm dropping this now though since its going off topic. 4 Link to comment
Cocoa Puff October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 4 hours ago, sauce62 said: What I don't understand, and maybe you savvy people can enlighten me, is what are the burglars going to do with the jewelry? Who wants a gigantic diamond ring,and wouldn't the buyer know it's stolen? I mean wouldn't it be easy to bust the person trying to sell it? And why is she traveling with so much excessively expensive jewelry? Dumbass. You'd be surprised. There's been several art thefts and if you heard that jewelry heist in Monaco worth millions and they got away with it. 3 Link to comment

I guess the Kardashians do it because that is all they know how to do? Aside from a few rappers and athletes, I can't think of any either. It seems like most A-list Hollywood celebs try to stay pretty low key. I was actually standing right next to Reese Witherspoon at the Lufthansa baggage claim at LAX and had no idea until my friend pointed her out to me. She was wearing jeans, sneakers and a baseball hat and looked like any other traveler coming off an international flight. Kim has an insatiable need for attention, so I can't see her going about incognito, but she might want to start using better judgment from here on out. 5 Link to comment

DangerousMinds October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 Kimmy has nothing other than tits, ass and snatch to interest anyone. Everyone else mentioned has an actual talent. She is a truly desperate famewhore. 7 Link to comment
iwasish October 5, 2016 Share October 5, 2016 Interest is waning on this story. Radar on line has a story about TeenMom stars running ahead of Kimmys ordeal. Even E! spent very little time on it. 3 Link to comment
