Kim Kardashian notably skipped out on the Met Gala after-parties after her tiny waist sparked concern online.
The reality star, 43, was absent from the celebrations after her super slim waist drew attention from fans, with one asking online, ‘How many ribs did she get removed?’
Then, Vogue shared video of Kim struggling to breathe as she prepared for fashion’s biggest night.
The video began with Kim taking long, slow exhales as she is asked by the director, ‘How’s the breathing going?’
‘It’s an art form. But I got it,’ Kim replied.
But ultimately Kim’s outfit wasn’t what kept her from attending the after-parties – the reality star missed out on the late night celebrations because partying has never really been her ‘thing.’
Kim traveled straight to Europe after the fashion bash as she was scheduled to speak at the 2024 OMR Festival in Hamburg, Germany on May 7 and 8th.
‘I went from there to the plane,’ Kim – who also recently appeared at Tom Brady’s roast – explained at the festival, according to People. ‘Slept on the plane and here I am.’
She added partying wasn’t really for her: ‘It was really good to not go to all the after parties. It’s not really my thing to go out so it was the perfect excuse, because I really wanted to come here.’
Proving she really can do it all, Kim landed in Hamburg at 3pm on Tuesday after walking the red carpet at around 7pm New York time on Monday night.
Germany is six hours ahead of New York making her two appearances just 13 hours apart. The flight time from New York to Hamburg is around nine hours.
The reality star wowed on the red carpet where she showed off her impossibly slim waist in the silver custom Maison Margiela by John Galliano number.
But she chose not to attend any raucous afterparties in the Big Apple and instead hopped straight on her private jet to head to Europe on a redeye.
She still looked immaculate as she arrived at the airport in Hamburg to her adoring fans and even took time to sign autographs after the long flight.
Kim’s Met Gala ensemble sparked fierce concern from social media users – with one person predicting that she’d ‘be in the hospital by the end of the night,’ and another asking, ‘How many ribs did she get removed?’
Others fed into the rib removal theory as one said: ‘Did she have a rib removed? Good Lordt.’
