Sounds like a setup by a broke and desperate Kanye West.

New York (AFP) - Reality star Kim Kardashian jetted home to the United States on Monday to be comforted by husband Kanye West, after being tied up at gunpoint in Paris and robbed of jewelry worth $10 million.

The multimillionaire mother of two and wife of the American rap superstar, was holed up at a luxury apartment in New York's swish Tribeca neighborhood "badly shaken but physically unharmed" after the assault.

Kardashian and her husband stepped out of the back seat of a car after a convoy bristling with bodyguards pulled up to the apartment block, as seen in a video posted on celebrity news website TMZ.

Kardashian kept her head down and ignored questions from reporters about how she was doing, her long hair hiding her face. She wore baggy eggplant-colored pants, towering black stilettos and a plunging black top.

West kept to his usual street cool of jogging bottoms, green anorak and a grey hoodie as he walked behind his wife into the building, where a five-bedroom penthouse was recently on the market for $24.5 million.

Kardashian matriarch Kris Jenner also went into the apartment building, an AFP photographer said, dressed in black and also ignoring questions from reporters about her and her daughter's state of mind.

Her daughter -- a California-based TV and social media star who earned $51 million last year according to Forbes -- has yet to speak out publicly about the assault.

French police said the 35-year-old was "tied up and locked in the bathroom" of a residence in the chic Madeleine district of Paris, near the city's main department stores. The crime occurred at 2:30 am (0030 GMT) on Monday.

- Masked men dressed as cops -

A police source said the robbers made off with a ring worth around four million euros ($4.5 million) and a case of jewelry with a value of five million euros ($5.6 million). Two mobile phones were also taken.

Police said five men were involved and two of them entered Kardashian's bedroom in the luxury residence where she has stayed before.

The robbers zip-tied Kardashian's hands with plastic handcuffs, duct-taped her mouth and ankles, dumping her in the bathtub, TMZ reported. The star told police that she feared she was about to be raped, the website said.

The robbers allegedly kept saying "ring, ring" and Kardashian told them where to find a new ring she got from her husband -- a photograph of which she posted to social media last Friday -- TMZ added.

Kardashian's spokeswoman said "two armed masked men dressed as police officers" burst into her room.

Another member of the gang restrained the building's security guard during the robbery, but he was unhurt, police said.

Investigators say the assailants may have fled on bicycles.

The star's bodyguard, Pascal Duvier, was absent at the time, providing security for Kardashian's sister Kourtney at a Paris nightclub, an investigation source said.

It is not known whether Kardashian's two young children were with their mother at the time of the robbery.

- Special snowflakes -

Kardashian flew out of France on a private jet after being questioned by police about the robbery. She had been in the French capital attending Paris Fashion Week, including catwalk shows by Balenciaga and Givenchy.

Other celebrities leapt to her defense after she was mocked on social media following news of the ordeal.

"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," tweeted British comedian James Corden, host of CBS's "The Late Late Show."

Model Chrissy Teigen wrote: "Please do not think that I think celebrities are special snowflakes. I just miss empathy, in general, for everyone."

Kardashian, one of the most recognizable US celebrities, has been a fixture of celebrity news for more than a decade after the leak of a sex tape and the success of reality show "Keeping Up with the Kardashians."

In Paris, tourism professionals said such a high-profile incident was disastrous in a city where tourist numbers have declined since jihadist attacks in November killed 130 people.

Paris Mayor Anne Hidalgo sought to downplay the robbery, saying it was "a very rare act that happened in a private space."

A WHOLE lot of people questioning this for very good reason.

 

  1.  Kims kids were with her.  But...in another house.  In another part of town.
  2.  Kim had 2 armed body guards with her at all times.  But they were absent completely from the Paris flat she was staying at.  Like      completely not even there for more than 3 hours?
  3.  Kim reportedly increased the rider for her insurance specifically on her jewelry and bullion 2 months ago
  4.  In a country where there is becoming a serious rape issue 5 armed men broke in to a house to find Kim K all alone bound her, taped her stole her jewels and left...
  5.  Her jewelry was in a "safety box" that was left open, on the counter
  6.  Her show is set for cancellation and herself and her family have actually paid the last 1 and 1/4 seasons out of pocket.  What better way to  stay relevant
  7.  She was bound and left in a bathtub with her arms behind her back with duct tape, yet broke free 3 hours later.  All alone no bodyguards  for 3 hours?  Remarkable really, I watched her video but didn't know she was that flexible
  8.  She bounced from Paris a few hours after with her kids and her bodyguards.  Didn't stick around to help police but just left

Now, I LOATHE Kim K as much as anyone else and I would be less than sad if anything actually happened to her.  but this raises some HUGE red flags, Lochte style flags in my opinion.  There are way to many loose openings in her story, openings the size of which ray J would be impressed by if ya know what i mean

In this thread, I find myself actually agreeing with you.  

There's WAY to many inconsistencies already

 

it's like a cook or chef being locked in a pantry and telling the world he or she almost starved to death

 

Kind of unbelievable considering all the facts no?

I wonder how much money kim kardashian would have if she grew up in a normal family.

You mean legally earned?

 

So far this year she's earned $51 Million.  She has a net worth of over $150 Million.  I'll take a weird family for that much cash.

This is a total scam. Only reason she would leave the country so quickly after being robbed is if she didn't want to be questioned by the authorities. She knows her story wouldn't hold water. Insurance scam? Abso-friggin'-lutely!

Some tweets regarding this by Spencer Pratt:

 

“Kim didn’t snapchat her robbery so don’t believe these sources,”

"TAYLOR SWIFT is not suspect.”

 

He's gonna get a sh*t ton of female pre-teen - young teen hate coming his way.  :lol:
