Vitalii Sediuk is escalating. It used to be that we only heard about him once or twice a year, and we only heard about him when he was assaulting a celebrity. He is considered by some to be a “prank journalist,” but at this point let’s just call him what he really is: a psycho predator who assaults celebrities (usually women). We just finished talking about him last week, when he assaulted Gigi Hadid in Milan. Now he’s in Paris (for Fashion Week), and guess what? He tried to assault Kim Kardashian. If you remember, he’s already assaulted Kim once before: back in 2014, almost two years ago exactly, he tackled her legs in the middle of a paparazzi scrum in Paris and her security people had to protect her. This time, Vitalii ran up to Kim on the street and tried to put his face on her ass.
Vitalii Sediuk tried to ambush the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star outside of L’Avenue restaurant on Wednesday, but Kim thankfully was able to march right past him. In a video posted to Instagram by makeup artist Mario Dedivanovic, it appeared that Vitalii was trying to plant a kiss on Kim’s butt. It didn’t take long, fortunately, for Kim’s bodyguard to stop the attacker in his tracks.
Kim, who has unfortunately been targeted by Vitalii in the past, took to Twitter to thank security guard Pascual Duvier for keeping him safe, calling him “a G.”
Vitalii took to Instagram after the incident to confirm he was, indeed, the culprit. He wrote, “I was protesting Kim for using fake butt implants. I encourage her and the rest of Kardashian clan to popularise natural beauty among teenage girls who follow and defend them blindly.” He even attempted to add an explanation, writing, “P.s. I was sitting there outside the posh restaurant to use free wifi and eating my ice-cream. When all of a sudden, the pack of paparazzi came out and the car with Kim Kardashian. I swear I didn’t know she was going to be there. So I had to come out with an idea very fast. Does it mean if I don’t go to celebrities, they come to me? Lol”
I’m including the Instagram video below – it really looks like Vitalii made contact with her body. Why is this guy allowed to roam around, free as a bird? Why wasn’t he arrested in Milan for assaulting Gigi Hadid? Why wasn’t he arrested this time for assault (or attempted assault) on Kim? I’m also including some photos of Kim’s “G” bodyguard, who really did Protect Dat Ass, gangster-style. He deserves a raise!

This is the kind of guy that would shoot someone in an “if I can’t have you nobody can” way, ffs please put this man in prison.
Also, the way he justifies this sh!t by saying he was “protesting” and then victim blames his a$$ off is disgusting. Scum. This guy is scum.
This guy is a total famewhoring a-hole.
Yup, on a different note, why is she naked again? W/out the see through coat,her sheer dress shows all,she’s in her underwear. That’s who Kim is, no talent,makes her money by staying in tabloids n no one would pap her if she was not naked. She loves parking far from doors to take long pap walks while nannies carry kids, why are we discussing her? Lol
@katlaps
Are you serious? We’re discussing her because she was assaulted by a “journalist” who has assaulted multiple celebrities and yet somehow has suffered no repercussions. You don’t actually have to be a fan of Kim to give a sh*t about the fact that this is not ok, and it speaks to a pattern of behaviour on the part of her assailant that should be getting much more attention than it is, because he is dangerous.
But yeah, let’s definitely take a time out from discussing that to discuss what she was wearing or how badly she wants to be famous… because that’s the real story here. *rolls eyes Also, not sure why, if you think discussing her is so beneath you, you clicked on the story? Or is victim shaming like a hobby for some people now?
~Megan #2, not the original poster Megan
But Megan2, don’t you know she totally asked for it? She’s “naked”, of course someone’s going to try to kiss her rear. That harlot!
/sarcasm
@PrincessMe
Lol!! Ohhhhh… you’re right. I forgot that a woman flaunting her body meant she wanted or was asking for some strange obsessive dude to put his hands or face on it. I mean, I wore a summer dress the other day that showed a bit of leg… and I was really disappointed that after walking around all day asking for “it” like that, nobody gave “it” to me at all.
*also sarcasm… 😉
Wow, you guys are over the top!? This is the kim, that filmed scenes for her show to reframe her divorce from Kris Humphries. That claims she lost weight by diet and exercise, lol. I wouldn’t put it past her to stage it. She could be covered from head to toe, she’s still a lying, manipulating woman who has no problems with bending the truth
Except, Snowflake, this “journalist” has been doing this to people for years. I am absolutely no fan of Kim Kardashian, but to somehow assert that she “staged” this or that she “bent the truth” it is really ridiculous.
This man needs an ass-kicking and jail, STAT. After all the assaults he has committed, why is he roaming free?
He claims to protest in favor of teenage girls — by assaulting women and laughing off their distress. He ain’t protesting nothing. His mentality reminds me of several men I know.
It’s beyond me why this assh@le isn’t in prison for his multiple assaults. He’s a fame-hungry sociopath!
Why isn’t he? What he did to Gigi was atrocious. I just want him to get more than an elbow in his face. These kind of “pranks” have no place in society, it’s straight up harassment. I mean, if that happened to me, what happened to Gigi, even after realizing I wasn’t in danger, I think I would be scared and impacted later on. Post trauma. It’s just NOT ok.
One of these days, some celebrity bodyguard just needs to go off his shit on this guy. Beat the crap out of him. Or, one day, this guy is going to get shot by some bodyguard.
I have said it before and I will say it again: I wish he’d try something like this on Tom Hardy.
LMAO
Yes but in front of cameras so we can all enjoy the video while eating popcorn!!!!
PLEASE.
Word.
Or Naomi Campbell. She would fix him right quick.
Lmao yaaaas! Add Russell Crowe to the list
He won’t. Apart from Brad Pitt and Will Smith, he only attacked women, this speaks volumes about this misogynist arsehole trying to gain attention by doing these disgusting stunts.
I don’t see him attacking Mel Gibson or Sean Penn anytime soon either.
Why doesn’t he get charged? Are we missing something?
I would love to see him try Ronda Rousey. (He won’t but one can dream)
Yeah, I don’t see him protesting Rob Lowe’s new face.
Or showing up at that Douglas kid’s rap shows or whatever.
Or protesting against the racism, sexism and bigotry in cinema… nope just butt implants and nepotism hires. The important (woman hating) stuff.
He tried to kiss will Smith, there video of it. Will seemed to be taken totally by surprise and looked like he wanted to punch the guy
Yes, and hopefully Tom Hardy is wearing see-through clothes like Kim when it happens. 😬
lol
Ronda Rousey. Haha
@SilverUnicorn – I heard a report when Gigi was assaulted that he also attacked Leonardo DiCaprio.
Will Smith, Leo DiCaprio, and Brad Pitt. Pitt pressed charges.
Yes and he would never be accused of “overreacting.”
This guy….I reeeally want to see him get his ass kicked. It is NOT okay.
It is weird that he hasn’t been arrested yet. I wonder if the public is getting played? Like the thing with gigi and Kim were all planned ahead of time for added publicity?
I’m surprised Cities like Paris hasn’t banned him considering he’s done this in those cities before. He’s barred from the US completely now I believe. And I know the big shows in the US also banned him.
Looks like Kim is pressing charges so good for her
He lives in California. He is barred from attending entertainment events in Los Angeles. He is not barred from the US.
I think something along those lines is afoot. Something’s fishy about all this….
Something fishy like a man feeling justified to physically assault women because they are famous…or other people like you victim blaming?
Like poster below said, no one makes the claims when it’s a man.
@Margo S. , did you ask the same question when he assaulted Brad Pitt, Leonardo Dicaprio and Will Smith?
Those people aren’t known for lying and faking scenes for their show.
Gigi tried to press charges in Milan and the police there just blew her off. Doesn’t seem like the cops are taking this seriously anywhere.
He also did the same thing to Ciara in Paris this week and the cops had zero reaction. I wonder if KimK is a big enough name that they’ll actually do something for once.
Probably going to hell for it, but hey, I laughed
Me too! I thought it was too funny!
Who wouldn’t find sexual assault funny? Erm.. That would be most people.
Yeah not funny at all.
If a stranger came up to you on the street and crawled under your dress, picked you up from behind, or put his mouth on you, I really doubt you’d find it as funny. You don’t have to like KK, but this is assault, and there’s nothing funny about it. Nothing that KK does or wears makes being assaulted acceptable.
Not only not find it funny – I would dang well ~break~ them in half (hey, bring a 6’2 Valkyrie has gotta be good for SOMETHING, right?). Not just for attacking me either – but for their own safety. Because otherwise, it happens when my husband is with me, that person would be lucky to ever walk again, IF they kept breathing. One of these days this piece of crap is gonna do this to the wrong person and get himself shot & killed (or just beaten to death). Just have to pray the person attacked doesn’t end up in trouble. Normally would never hope a person gets hurt but this man is insane – either HE gets hurt one day or his victim will, and I’ll victim side always. Even, I suppose, KimK.
@Jenna. More violence is always the right answer.
Oh okay good. I was wondering if I would have to be the first demon to type that. Not saying I find going under people’s dresses funny, but he didn’t really get anywhere with this one so I thought it was hilarious.
I’m really sorry, but I just don’t see the humor in attempted crimes: attempted assault, attempted rape, attempted burglary… someone trying to commit a crime but not being entirely successful doesn’t seem funny to me.
CD3 – he has repeatedlty sexually assaulted people. Grabbing crotches, backsides, going under clothing and actually body pressing women off the ground – damn right he would get hurt if he tried it on me. I was raped already, and feel pretty happy and clear I am (as these people also should be) in reacting in a way to stop someone like him in the moment of attack as I like. And my husband – or any other man/woman/friend/bodyguard- would be protective too. What, ask nicely for the nutter to pretty please don’t assault again?
Yeah. That works.
I love how her assistant has her hands around his throat. Like she is not playing. This guy is a straight up dirtbag, just seems so unpleasant
Is that the woman who goes after him? She was faster than the body guard I think.
I felt like she was also a bodyguard.
Agree with Darling that she’s probably also a bodyguard. Whoever she is she was ready with a quickness.
Ugh. This guy needs a stiletto shoe to the face then his ass needs to be hauled into jail. Someone mentioned that Kim might be pressing charges. Good!
Seriously! She’s the real hero…did she do something to his neck?!
She looks so bad@ss…like I bet her heart rate stayed the same the whole time.
ETA: Nope, she’s a normal. Just saw the actual video; it was just a perfect pic.
I thought she was just a bystander until I saw the hashtag callout, she was coiffed, calm and reflexes like a mongoose.
YES to pressing charges. I hope she does.
That’s her best friend/assistant Jenny, the one she posted all those sarcastic instagram posts for on her birthday. She’s badass.
Well Jenny The Assistant should open a school because every assistant should be like Jenny!
He’s banned in the US but I don’t know why he can do whatever he wants in Europe.
How is this man free roaming the streets.
This is honestly so disgusting. The fact that some people downplay his harrassment as “pranks” makes me even angrier. I kind of wish Kim had planted her heel in the guy’s eye.
This guy is not a prankster, he is a serial assaulter who belongs in jail. Even if Kim does not press charges, I hope she gets a restraining order. This is the second time this creep has gone after her.
I wish somebody’s bodyguard would give this guy what he deserves: a straight up beat down
maybe that’s the ultimate aim? so he can sue? The guy is a danger to women and will end up seriously hurting someone, I can see it coming.
I just read on Pascal Duvier’s instagram that had he hit or hurt Vitalii, he would have been charged with assault.
I wonder, if Kim had hit his face with her heel, would she be liable as well, or would it be self-defence?
Off topic: Kim has lost so much weight! Her legs are so slim #envy
What you read is correct.
Kim is allowed to use a reasonable* amount of force to defend herself. Kicking him (or elbowing him like Hadid) in order to get him off her is fine. Same goes for the bodyguard.
But if the bodyguard subdues the guy and then holds him so that Kim can step in his face with her heels, then that’s assault. Same if the bodyguard decides to beat the sh!t out the guy when he’s subdued and not fighting back.
*E.g. it’s a disproportional amount of force if a frail, shorter-than-Kim octogenarian lady is slammed to the ground by a 300 pound bodyguard.
He wouldn’t EVER try this with Beyoncé. Julius would snap him in half.
The title is appropriate! WHY has he not been arrested? Why don’t people get restraining orders? (Like Kim, Gigi, etc) Why didn’t Kim kick him in the face with her heel?
I don’t know if Hadid is pressing charges (she should) but there is a story on another site that Kim is pressing charges. I hope she does and I really hope Hadid will press charges. I’m afraid if no one presses charges (not sure of the laws in France and Italy) nothing will happen to him. I hope that every one he assaults (and to me it is assault) from now on out presses charges.
“Protesting”? Carry a sign or chant, don’t touch another person without their permission. It is terrible that this guy is free to continue assaulting people.
That said, I wouldn’t be a bit surprised to learn that her mother set this up for attention.
This guy making light of something every women keeps in the back of her mind when walking down a street just really pisses me off 😡 He doesn’t have the right to put his hands on someone like that. I can’t stand her, but she has a right to not be groped in public. Every woman has that right, but this guy, like a lot of guys, seems to think his ‘rights’ come first. This reminds me of of the FHITP thing. He doesn’t see these women as people- just an object for him to use for whatever f’d up agenda he has.
Mysogynist pig needs a crash course in respect.
I don’t know if it’s because I haven’t had my morning coffee yet but this really got to me. Arrest him!
I completely agree. Regardless of what people think about Kim, this is not acceptable behavior. She looks terrified in the last photo. I would be too if somebody tried to touch me like that! Also how he blames this on her for what she looks like. I really don’t like her style, but she has every right to dress just the way she pleases and adjust her body as she wishes.
Good God I LOATHED the fhitp thing. And so many men think it’s hilarious. Notice how that ish doesn’t happen to them. And, you know, we can’t complain, we can’t fight back, we can’t dish it right back, all we are allowed to do is smile and giggle. Through assault after assault after assault.
I don’t mind being called a b!tch anymore. It’s been very freeing.
What is FHITP? Do I even wanna know?
Anyway I agree with you guys. The other day one of my gym instructors came up behind me on the street and grabbed me and picked me up. I hate a moment of sheer terror before I looked down and recognized his track suit. He’s the nicest dude and I wasn’t made or anything, but it’s amazing how many men don’t seem to register how terrifying shit like that is to a woman. Privilege like whoa.
They need to do something about this guy already because this stuff isn’t fun or entertaining, he’s a fucking creep and he’s gross. I wish she would’ve donkey kicked him right in his face.
Is that women in the black also a bodyguard?the formation they created when Kim walked out and seriousness of her stance feels like she is. Kim has a great bodyguard detail, one in front, one in back and she just needs to keep moving forward.
No, the woman in black is just Kim’s bad ass assistant who was ready to choke that guy out. I thought that was pretty cool that she flew into action like that!
So explain this to me,these celebs have the best bodyguards money can buy and somehow this guy goes unnoticed every time!! Sounds very fishy and staged to me, but that’s just probably me.
+1
Gigi I believe, she looked terrified. Kim, I don’t believe. She is known for lying and faking stuff.
Kim didn’t seem to notice she was touched and seemed to react more to the bodies hitting the ground
I wouldn’t dare to claim this was staged, but I do think it’s odd that the bodyguard is now parading his deed on social media like he did a great deed. He doesn’t deserve a praise. He was bad at his job, somebody got through to Kim and assaulted her. “Luckly” just with a pervy gesture that left her unharmed. What if he had a gun or a knife?
I get it 2 years ago, there was a crowd, there the BG couldn’t have done better like they did. But here Kim did have enough space. Her bodyguards weren’t covering it. So this is the only reason why this looks fishy to me too. (Gigi’s bodyguards were off their guard too.)
So, in a week he’s gone from assault to sexual assault is what you’re saying? Because in the real world, if someone randomly goes up and sticks their face in someone’s ass it’s a sexual crime. What’s next?
I know, I KNOW, I KNOW it is awful, but I don’t like Kim K so much that I can’t even bring myself to care. I’m a bad person *goes to sit in corner*
so because someone is unlikable it’s acceptable to assault them?
This guy is the epitome of what I cant stand about arrogant Slavic men, who can’t handle no means no. There is still such a sexist and machoistic attitude among certain Slavic men, who think they are gods gift and have the right to be aggressive towards women. Yes, this guy is a special case of crazy, but I can see how this behaviour stems from a bigger problem.
i know!! what is wrong with them??? it’s sucha hostile environment towards women in this part of the world, to the point where we donnt even have words to anme or describe this kind of behaviour!!! oh yes – and my personal ‘favourite’ consent does not exist as a thing!!! aaargh!!! victims of rape are humiliated through a process that tries to show how they basically made it up while the rapsits walk. and the euphemisms men use to describe sex without consent, i can’t even. i want to do something about it, but don’t know where i would begin. #discouraged
Strange that he has not been arrested, are celebrities refusing to sue him too?
Sidenote, it appears that Kim’s outfit looks much less see-through in person which makes it look much better.
Really not a fan of hers or her dress sense but she could be walking with her ass actually out and he has no right to go near her!
How he’s not been charged with anything so far is beyond me.
There is a point where crazy antics for publicity is just crazy and not journalism. I’m not a Kardashian empathized but can you imagine if someone creeped on you that way? Talk about scared. I don’t know how celebrities do it…no amount of money could pay to wipe away that fear of some creeper being a creeper.
This guy is loving the attention. He is textbook for escalating to the point of bringing a weapon and using it so he can make some kind of bullsh*t point about fame. Why hasn’t he been arrested?
OMG her face in that last pic. It’s so plastic, it’s frightening. She really can’t move her face. Looks painful.
She looks frightened . This guy is weird and scary. He’s going to get hurt.
I hate his type of “prankster” with a passion. This is simply not acceptable. Why is he still free? I don’t condone violence usually but I must admit I wouldn’t mind too much a bodyguard beating some sense into his head. But unfortunately this person would be charged for it. He is the one who deserve charges and I hope he will get it.
He needs to be stopped. Prosecuted AND given whatever mental health treatment he needs. How long before he rapes someone? And I don’t mean that as hyperbole – it’s all on the same continuum of dehumanising, mysogynistic, entitled behaviour.
The terrified look on Kim’s face is getting to me. She really is very tiny. This had to be so scary for her. Lock this scumbag up. He’s a sexual predator.
This is scary and nobody deserves this.
This scumbag’s behavior is disgusting. Equally disgusting is the victim blaming in the comment section. How the hell did Kim manage to “fake” this when he ran up out of nowhere and is a well-known serial predator who’s been assaulting celebrities for years? But oh yeah, she deserved to get attacked by this psycho since you can kinda see her legs through her dress. Y’all need to grow the hell up, and he needs a good old fashioned ass whupping every time he comes near any of these women. Maybe he’ll think twice about assault if he’s the one getting assaulted.
How is she not reacting to someone crouching down in front of her – hand out like he’s going to grab her leg or something else – and so far in her way that she has to step over him?
But yet, the pictures show that she doesn’t react until her bodyguard is pushing him down?
And she doesn’t jump away or react in any way – other than her head turning?
I call hoax.
