Did Kim Kardashian lie about experiencing racism on a plane home to LA?

121937PCN_Kim14

Here are some assorted photos of Kim Kardashian from the past few days. I kind of like her black dress, although I’m pretty sure she’s wearing a full-on wig in those photos. Kim was in NYC over the weekend, then she went to the Hamptons, which is where Khloe and Kourtney have been filming Keeping Up with the Kardashians (I guess), amidst widespread Hamptons shade.

Anyway, on last Sunday’s episode of KUWTK, they aired all of the dumb, racist BS that went down when Kim attended the Vienna Opera Ball in March. We covered it extensively when everything went down – go here to review. People were dropping the n-word and some idiot wore blackface and accosted Kim. Kim got $500,000 to be an escort, so don’t feel too sorry for her… although I did think that what happened to her was totally ridiculous. So, here’s the E! footage of what went down:

After Kim and Lucifer’s Homegirl returned home, Kim apparently told her sisters about her crazy-racist experiences, and she also said there was another incident on the plane coming home:

“I feel asleep, I woke up to this woman screaming, ‘Kanye West’s baby!’,” Kim recalled, “The woman is screaming at my child, I jump up… This lady stoof up in the cabin in first class, and yelled at the top of her lungs, ‘she’s with a black guy, and that baby is black! And you need to shut that black baby up!”

Kim went on to say that the woman then started talking about her sex tape with former boyfriend Ray J, shouting, “‘And she has a sex video with a black guy. How disgusting, with a black guy.’ Like going on and on.”

“It was the trip from hell. It was so racist,” Kim said.

You know what? Even though everyone is saying that Kim is made of lies for this story, I kind of believe her. Weird, I know. But I doubted her about the Vienna Ball incidents too, until the photos and videos came out and I was like, “Crap, people really were being enormous racists.” So… yeah. Doubt her if you want, but I bet some idiot racist did come up to her on the plane.

    i call Bravo Sierra

      x2. If anything like that had happened, there would have been US Marshal’s waiting to arrest the woman.

      • springingforward says:

        Ugh. This family cannot drop off my celebrity blogs fast enough.
        This is a lie and we all know the family will do ANYTHING for some media coverage.

      • raincoaster says:

        Wasn’t this a non-American flight? Air marshalls don’t arrest people for just being assholes.

    • Green Is Good says:

      Everytime time Kimmode opens her plastic yap, another made up lame story falls out. She travels 1st class. Like the flight crew is going to let BS like this go down, without it being leaked to TMZ or Radar. Somebody would have had cell phone footage.

      • Steph says:

        That’s what I don’t get. If a lady stood up in first class and started yelling anything, the flight attendants would have told her to compose herself and sit down at the very least. I call BS. However, now that I see the video of the Vienna Ball, I’m horrified and angry. And don’t give me that BS about “blackface doesn’t mean the same thing in Austria”. Its offensive and totally out of line for anybody.

      • kri says:

        Until I hear from the airline, I’ am so not believing this crap. I know that what happened at the ball was completely offensive and gross. But there were cameras and witnesses etc, and those cretins are so capable of using anything and anyone for more TV famewhore fodder, I just can’t take them at their word.

      • Kcarp says:

        You are so right. What a crock of sh**. Like Kim would ride on a plane with her kid.

      • Eloise says:

        The guy in black face at the Ball is a European shock personality, either TV or radio, I can’t recall off hand. So his whole reason for going was to illicit a reaction from Kim.

        Listening to Kim and her mother being interviewed for the press upon their arrival at the Ball, they both sound like ignorant pre-teen girls. “Awesome” “The history and everything, like so amazing.”
        Everything they say or do, the opposite is true. A family of liars, schemers, and cheats. Money over morals and substance. Thank G-d I wasn’t born into that screwed up family!

    • melissa says:

      Yep. Me too. There is no way this happened. Someone else on the plane would have told the press.

    • Lahdidahbaby says:

      Yep, I agree. For one thing, her story is suspiciously close to an actual news story that happened to another woman last year–a story that was widely reported again in the media earlier this year when the perpetrator (who had slapped (!) said screaming baby after yelling at the mum to “shut that [n-word] baby up!) was convicted. I think the producers of KUWTK got the idea from that other incident and fed it to Kim–the words are identical except for “black” vs. the n-word. And if so, the Kimster has slipped to a new low, belatedly discovering racism (she said she’d never really given it much thought before) to give her superficial image a touch of substance.

      • gefeylich says:

        She’s not “belatedly discovering it” – remember, she tried to use this same fake gambit at that totally fabricated “racist attack by a young man at the doctor’s office!” story she, her mother and Kanye tried to flog to all media. No one bought it then and no one buys this now.

        And I highly doubt this was done at the urging of her PR people – they usually shy away from easily-debunked tall tales, because the fallout is disproportionate to the sympathy this is designed to create. This has PMK’s prints all over it – she’s probably annoyed that Wedding Circus #3 did not have the desired effect of turning her prize ho into a hot commodity, and is now trying to turn her into a long-suffering victim of “RACISM OMG.” Try again, Kris, because this didn’t work.

    • Pandy says:

      BS, agree. People can just stand up and start screaming racist taunts and nobody does anything? Guess I will stick to cattle class.

    • jes_sayin says:

      Agreed.. This family is just fake and boring.

  2. kellie says:

    if that had really happened on the plane, there would have been numerous eyewitness accounts. and people sending stories to the papers. not to mention the flight attendants not allowing something like that in first class.

    I call BS. no one recorded it, so she can claim anything and there is no way to prove or disprove it. Seems too much like a “theme” of the trip to be real.

    • Melissa says:

      +1

      • janie says:

        I believe she’s lying… Just an observation, but we all know she a ton of nannies. There is no way that baby was in first class with her, she’d be in coach with the nanny. She loves attention and would have had a press conference and called Gloria Allred and sue the airlines. No way this happened!

    • Ag says:

      i think it’s BS too. kim and her family lie about absolutely everything. there would have been many accounts of some insane racist yelling on a plane.

    • Audrey says:

      Agreed

      Someone on the plane would have sold that story as soon as the plane landed.

      Just attention seeking lies imo

    • Nicolette says:

      +2. We live in a society where any incident has people pulling out their phones and recording a video. And I’m pretty sure that anything involving her would be recorded by someone. The dialogue she’s quoting just sounds like something stupid thought up by her and her mother. I somehow doubt a person would stand up in a plane and start spewing such comments. It’s just another attention grab by this narcissistic twit.

    • Samtha says:

      Look how fast Amy Adams giving up her seat got spread around. People would have talked about it if it’d happened.

      I don’t doubt that she’s experienced racism, but this story reeks of BS to me.

    • denisemich says:

      I disagree. All Kris could say was it was first class. Like racism doesn’t happen in her rich bubble. I think it happened.

      People mind their business in first class. If it happened in coach, someone would have taken video.

      • Steph says:

        Sorry but I’m far from rich and have flown first class several times due to random upgrades or other occurrences. If I saw that I’d probably tell everybody. Plus your argument that everybody minds their own business up there could be an argument for the fact that this is a lie. Even if some racist, rich lady was there she would have kept her thoughts to herself.

      • Tiffany :) says:

        There is no way that the attendant would have allowed a first class passenger to be harassed. They would not have alllowed a woman to stand and scream in the first class area, which is near the cockpit.

      • Josephine says:

        It would have been reported. And your claim that first class people would ignore some bat-crazy lady screaming at a child is absurd. Absurd. The story doesn’t pass the smell test. They know no one will believe them, but even bad publicity is publicity for these horrid people.

      • decorative item says:

        People mind their business in first class.
        Hu?? What?? Really?
        You bet your arse if someone was making a fuss like that in first class it would have been shut down ASAP.

      • Patriciacamille says:

        I have a biracial daughter that is much darker than Little North, and we fly first class pretty regularly (for my job) and nothing like this has ever happened. In fact, every flight we have been on people have been very sweet to the both of us, I’ve had questions but that’s it. I find her story very hard to believe especially now that racism is getting more and more attention.

        Side note: I think stories like this make it harder for people to just talk about things. In my experience with a biracial daughter, I often get people that want to ask me questions but are scared of how they will sound or how I will perceive them as sounding. It’s normal to be inquisitive!! There is so much pressure to be politically correct just so we won’t be labeled racist that we lose our ability to talk to someone different about our differences.

    • Algernon says:

      Yeah, you can’t cough on a plane anymore without six people tweeting about it and a hashtag being started. #planeplague

      I call BS. If someone, in first class no less, made a ruckus like that, at least one person would’ve posted about it right away.

    • vilebody says:

      +3. I agree that this is fake. I think that Kim got a lot of sympathy after the blackface incident and is trying to recreate that.

    • Sarah says:

      ^^^^YES^^^^^

    • Mia V. says:

      Someone was racist towards her baby, can happen, there are inumerous stupid people in the world, Kim herself being an example. But on 1st class? And she didn’t leak it to the press right away? No one saw nothing and did nothing? And ok, the person called her wedding to Kanye, but why would the person call her sex tape? Why wouldn’t she call, for example, Khloe’s marriage? Sorry, Mama Kris, not buying this shit.
      p.s. Fix your face girl!

    • Marianne says:

      Maybe someone quietly said something to her about how they disapprove her “lifestyle”. I doubt anything happened on the level she is talking about. Just as the reasons you claimed. Someone else would have said something, or it would be on video or something.

    • diva says:

      Yep! If anyone is stupid enough to believe anything the Kardashian say I have a bridge to sell you too. It makes no sense that since she’s with kanye all these stories about people yelling racist things to her come out. All she has dated are black men so why hasn’t this happen when she was with her first husband, Reggie Bush, Ray J, Nick Cannon, or Kris H.?

    • Deb says:

      I agree. Several incidents of people going ballistic on planes have ended up on the nightly news with cell phone footage taken by passengers who witnessed the incident. Typically, the plane ends up landing at the nearest available airport and the person causing a scene is arrested. The only person talking about this incident is Kim. If it really happened, stories about it would be everywhere.

      • harleyb says:

        She would have put the woman’s face on Instagram in an instasecond. Calling B.S. on this. I truly hope some intrepid reporter identifies the airline, the flight and gets a statement from the airline as to whether it happened.

    • Kristin says:

      Right?? I mean Amy Adams quietly gives her seat on a plane to a soldier and multiple people tweet about it and there’s a freaking camera crew waiting at the arrival gate for Amy. Yet someone is screaming at Kim Kardashian and her baby on a plane, yelling loud, offensive racist crap, and… silence. Complete silence. Not one person on the plane says a peep to anyone else about it? Come the f#@k on.

      • Chris says:

        Exactly ^^^
        Even though I’m not a fan of Kim’s, I would still speak up for her if someone was yelling racist crap at her and her baby. Other people would too.

  3. dorothy says:

    I think at this point, no one believes anything they have to say.

    • Scarlet Vixen says:

      Pretty much. It’s like the fable of the boy who cried wolf. You lie through your teeth enough time and eventually noone believes a word.

    • GoodNamesAllTaken says:

      Right. It could be true, but they lie so much, who knows?

    • MW says:

      I don’t believe her. If somebody was that racist and that mad, they would have been using the “N” word, not “black”. Nobody is going to have a PC meltdown. And for good measure, I think the whole “blackface incident” was a set-up by the Kardashians for headlines and sympathy. How else could some random guy, in blackface, gotten that close to her at a big, private event like that?

      • Lahdidahbaby says:

        You’re right: in the actual, widely news-reported and verified incident with a different woman on a plane whose (black) child was crying, the quote was almost identical to the one Kim is claiming. The perpetrator of the REAL incident yelled at the white mother to “shut that n—– baby up!” To contrive or copy a story like this for her own reality-show storyline and pass it off as true is beyond disgusting.

  4. Jen says:

    If something like that actually happened it would’ve been mentioned somewhere else.

    • Badirene says:

      Serious question, would the woman have been met by police at the airport if she stood up and started shouting at people on the plane? Kicking off on a flight seems like a good move if you want to get arrested, and probably tweeted about by others on the flight.

  5. Tiffany27 says:

    Would we not have heard about it though? This was months ago and she’s just now talking about it to coincide with the episode that aired on Sunday. It seems sketchy, but racists are getting really bold nowadays so it could be true.

  6. Candy Love says:

    Yes I think she lied .

    North is about Kim completion Kanye was not with them so why would a stranger automatically know North is mix race and call her a black baby? And why is this story only coming out know?

    • We Are All Made of Stars says:

      Really? North has a black appearance and is nowhere close to looking like Kim. It would’ve been easy to identify that baby as black regardless of whether or not the child were famous.

      • Candy Love says:

        Lol Kim doesn’t look like Kim you can’t go by her changing face. Lol

        There is a side by side of North and Kim as a baby and they look alike.

  7. PennyLane says:

    The first class cabin can get weird, what with the personality disorders and sense of entitlement.

    Just for myself I have seen some crazy stuff in first class regarding how people act towards children (I don’t have kids)…I kind of believe her.

    • mellie says:

      I believe that someone probably told her to quiet her baby down, but the racist stuff, not so much…

  8. HappyMom says:

    I don’t believe this for a second. She completely made this up for the show.

  9. Antonym says:

    Off topic: I actually like all of these outfits…What’s happening to me?

  10. NewWester says:

    On one hand I could see Kim having to deal with some ignorant people. She is in the public eye(her choice) so she would be the target of people whose bread is not baked. But, this incident happened on a commercial airline and none of the media outlets got wind of it? What about the other passengers and flight crew? There was not one leak ( bad pun) to anyone? If someone was being that abusive to another passenger it would have made the news

    • Faye says:

      That’s another good point. In today’s social-media world, wouldn’t passengers have posted about this? And wouldn’t the crew have stopped the person yelling racist insults? Especially in first class, which is where I assume Kim was.

    • Antonym says:

      “people whose bread is not baked” – love it!

    • Bob Loblaw says:

      She is a terrible liar, she lies all the time, contradicts her lies because she can’t keep them straight and now we’re all supposed to believe this line of bull from her. She is full of it, as usual, even the blackface incident was her own doing, she just wants sympathy for other people’s actual suffering, she’s disgusting.

  11. Faye says:

    I’m not saying it *couldn’t* have happened -although the alleged phrasing of the insults sounds sketchy to me, like something written by a really bad script writer- but *did* it happen? That’s another story. Here we have Kim and Kanye talking (ex Vogue, and another interview I think) about what a groundbreaking couple they are just because they’re biracial. Then out of the blue here comes a racist person! I don’t know. The timing is a little suspect.

    • NewWester says:

      I also cast doubt on this story for the simple reason Kayne has not exploded and given a three day sermon on how his number one “perfect woman” and child were insulted. Any person would be outraged if their partner and child had been verbally attacked. Granted Kayne was not there when it happened but it does seem odd he has not mentioned it, considering they are such a “prominent” inter-racial couple who are opening doors for others who follow.

      • yep. says:

        Didn’t Kim call her honey to beat the shit of some twerp, who apparently called her names? I mean, Kanye was on it asap. She had to show him the Drs office where this kid was waiting for his appt. This was an IMMEDIATE twirl on the internets. So, I don’t believe her for a moment. NOW its coming out? No. She is doing a great disservice for inter racial couples with her fucking lies.

    • Jen2 says:

      Agree. Not saying it is impossible, but definitely improbable. Racism does exist and it is harmful and hurtful. It is a very serious issue. It has kept people from getting jobs, promotions and other real life things. But this couple throws it out way too much for my taste and it is sounding like a new mantra for the TV show and to gain some kind of pity and sympathy. “See how we suffer, our baby is a victim”. To use you kid for ratings is creepy enough. This would have been all over the internet if it had really happened.

  12. Maria says:

    I don’t believe her about the plane.

    Not at all.

    I absolutely do believe they’ve faced issues as an interracial couple from others, I’m just not buying the plane story.

    She would have milked it for all the PR it’s worth, that’s her style.

    • Bob Loblaw says:

      What issues have they faced? Yes, I believe there are plenty of racists that no doubt despise them for racist reasons but these two live a very privileged lifestyle, very well-insulated from any type of reality, I have serious doubts that they have had to face any of the issues that your average inter-racial couple faces daily. Kim is just using this, she gave no thought or mention to this topic until it conveniently dovetails with a storyline for the show. She’s incredibly vile.

  13. Giselle says:

    The guy who came in blackface to the event was probably paid by E!. Anyone who appears on camera has to sign a waiver to have their face shown. So I’m not buying a random guy coming to the ball. PERIOD.
    As for the plane incident, as much as Kim instagrams and tweets the dumbest of things, there’s no evidence of this actual women doing this to her in the plane?! BS again!!
    And Kim saying that the police came?! Why have no other passengers come forward to back this up?! Because it NEVER happened.

    • MrsBPitt says:

      I agree with you on all counts! I think the incident at “the Ball” and the plane, were totally bought and paid for by E for the good of the show. What the hell, these freaks need to have something on that stupid show to try and make people tune in! I call bullshit…I wouldn’t put anything past these fame mongers….

      • springingforward says:

        Totally agree. They are the fakest family on the planet Earth.

      • HappyMom says:

        Yes. Complete and total BS made up for the cameras.

      • Josephine says:

        I agree as well. I think they paid the guy to drum up a story line for the show, and to cover the embarrassment that she was a paid companion for a gross old man, basically the same as any old street walker.

    • almondey says:

      100% disagree with this. E didn’t pay for the black face guy to show up. He may have signed a waiver because he’s a professional comedian and stand-up comic. He’s come dressed as various characters in the past to this specific ball and he apologized for thinking it’d be funny to dress up as a pimped out version of Kanye. That’s why he was allowed into the event to begin with–because he dons a different costume/character every year.

      http://www.tmz.com/2014/02/28/kim-kardashian-kanye-west-black-face-vienna-ball-racist-chris-stephan/

      I definitely don’t like the Kardashians but I don’t doubt this story and I don’t think E! paid for it. it’s just so unnecessary to go after things that actually happen to them rather than the stuff they deserve to get hate for!

  14. msmercury says:

    I don’t really think she is capable of telling the truth. This family lies about too much. And why is Kim always being attacked by invisible white people? Like the White 18 year old kid (that we never got a name or picture or found out if there were any injures) and this new story sounds too much like a story that happened years ago.

    Like I believe racism is alive and well but I do not buy this story. This women stands up and yells at Kim’s baby and no one stops and does anything or says anything. The lady (if this happened) should have been kicked off the plane.

    • TG says:

      Yes interesting point. How come we don’t have any black women shouting at KimME for taking one of their men? Because that type of racism exists too. I guess it doesn’t fit Kim and Kanye’s narrative though.

      • andypandy says:

        On Behalf of BW everywhere we thank Kim for taking Kanyes Crazy narcissistic A$$ out of our dating pool
        That is All

      • Tiffany27 says:

        BW are not here for Kanye and his crazy.

      • msmercury says:

        Someone on another board posted this video of Kim (I guess from her show that don’t watch) she pulled a bw aside and asked her why she was so jealous of her and her body. It was hilarious because Kim is so delusional it’s not even funny. Like I’ve never heard anyone who is jealous of her. (maybe her money some days lol)

      • Lauren says:

        @TG Way to generalize about BW all apparently being bitter! I have no problem with Kim dating black men. If anything it is kind of annoying to see some people always question why she only dates black guys ( I have seen this question asked a billion times on other websites). It’s as though people can’t fathom that sometimes people have preferences and even more so can’t fathom why the preference would be black. Then they say that she is trashy for going for black because apparently only trashy white girls would go with black men whereas white women with class stick to their own.

        Believe me when I say a lot of us black women thank Kim for taking the likes of Ray J and Kanye. Maybe the only one I heard anyone getting pissy about is Reggie. But from my own personal experience black women are used to our own black men dogging down black women and saying all sorts of things about why all other women are better and why black women just aren’t good enough. The thing is that lots of black women have been brainwashed or ingrained with the idea that only black men will think we are attractive by societies standards and as a result are the only ones who will have us. In fact I have a few black girl friends who have received nothing but abuse and called ‘white mans whore’ by black men for dating white men or anyone else outside our race. Funny enough these are also the same black men with white women.

        So lets change the narrative from the supposedly bitter black women who sit around bitching about white girls stealing our men because I can assure you that none of the women in my family treat my brothers white wives like crap. I can assure you though that when we bring home any man who isn’t black the men in the family have something to say about it.

    • Your Mama says:

      I forgot about that story, that was covered up real quick, wasn’t it? I think all races and sexes of the world should be grateful that Kimye have each other for now and everyone else is safe from them.

  15. P.J. says:

    Look at her face in the header photo. That is a face made of nothing BUT lies, plastic, media manipulation and deceit.

    I think a better question is has anyone in that entire God forsaken family ever actually recognized or told the truth? All one has to do is watch a few seconds of that laughable show to recognize that the disgusting way all those kids speak to their mother, constant plastic surgery, self absorption, and total vapidness and lack of interest in anything other than themselves is merely a product of the environment in which they were “raised” by Kris after their father’s death. I used tho think that Khloe was the most down to earth and normal one of the bunch until I saw how she and the show chose to handle the whole situation of Lamar’s addiction and downward spiral. (Airing recordings of his struggles while Khloe had him on speaker so everyone else in the room could hear as she laughed, flipped her hair and smacked her big glossy injected lips? Done with her too now.)

    It’s all so disgusting. Poor North 🙁 Donda West would not be having any of this, may she rest in peace.

  16. Arch says:

    Yeah that hair aint real.

  17. Faye says:

    I just remembered something – wasn’t there an incident last year where a guy (woman?) started yelling racist insults at the parents of an an AA baby who was crying – it made headlines because it was so awful. And those people weren’t celebs, yet everybody heard about it. So I’m definitely throwing shade at the idea that this would have happened to Kim on a plane and nobody would have seen it or reported on it.

    • msmercury says:

      Yes. It was a guy that used the N word when and told a little child to shut up. I’m telling you Kim made this up. And isn’t the least bit creative. Because that story was huge and everywhere.

    • chaine says:

      that’s exactly what I was going to point out. and in that case, other passengers saw/heard the incident, came forward to support her story. it’s really difficult for me to believe that this could happen to Kim Kardashian’s baby and no other passenger would have shopped their eyewitness story to the tabloids/gossip blogs/TMZ. And that no other passenger grabbed their phone and started filming or audio recording it happening so they could sell their recording to the tabloids, etc.

    • Sparkly says:

      That was my first thought as well when I first heard Kim’s story. It’s the same story minus the baby smacking (gosh, I can’t even believe I’m typing something like that). Only that time, many other people came forward and reported it. I would have thought that it would be all over the place before she even stepped out of the plane if something like that really happened.

  18. Francis says:

    I don’t think Kim looks white. When the press writes her as being white, I don’t see it. Kim looks very ethnically mixed to me. I’m not sure I believe her comments about the race issue. Many people I know Actually think Kim is a mixture, when I tell them she’s white, they look kind of surprised.

    • FingerBinger says:

      We all know Kim is Armenian and I’ve seen them classified as Asian and sometimes as Middle Eastern.

    • minime says:

      I only got to know Kim in celebitchy some years ago (I’m not American). I didn’t know she was Armenian and I always thought she was a mixture (and I just assumed she was considered to be a POC). I feel embarrassed about it, but really, I only realized she was not when she started talking about racism regarding Kanye…so there is that.

      I don’t believe in the plane story, for many reasons that others already pointed out.

      The Vienna story did happen and it was already discussed here. The guy is a known Austrian entertainer, generally Europe doesn’t have a connection with the history of “blackface” and many people still think that it’s totally OK to do this for Carnival, Tv shows and what so ever. So yes, it happened and it was distasteful. I dare to say that the Austrian guy didn’t intend it to be a demonstration of racism, but even then he was plain ignorant and insensitive.

      Armenian’s are mostly referred to as Middle Eastern (like Persians, Moroccans, Syrians etc.). However I think PMK is fully white (she’s a mix of Scottish, English, French, German and Dutch, according to wiki), so Kim is technically mixed. I’m Middle Eastern (Moroccan/Persian) and we don’t refer to ourselves as white.

      • NickT says:

        Morocco is in North Africa NOT the Middle East. Also, Armenia is in The Caucasus region(AKA Caucasian!)

      • jasmine says:

        Agree with NickT,

        If anything Armenians are actually the true Caucasians, Armenia lies on the Caucus Mountains, and Armenians identify themselves as White/Caucasian, not Middle Eastern. But PMK is all White European descent, so Kim therefore is technically White/Caucasian herself, even though she really doesn’t look that way.

    • Bob Loblaw says:

      She’s half Armenian, half Western European, and if we get into classification of the arbitrary racial system that makes her white. Armenians are Caucasian, as are many other ethnic groups of the Middle East.

  19. shannon says:

    Yeah, her hair looks pretty decent in some of these pics, but my word….that face and those lips. Totally plastic.

  20. The Original G says:

    This sounds like THIS story that was reported in the press.

    http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2013/02/15/white-delta-passenger-to-_n_2697744.html

    Wasn’t that the theme of this show? Kanye rants on racism, Kim agrees to TMZ and then they go to Vienna and this incident is alleged to have happed on the plane?

    I think if the plane incident happened, we would have heard about it.

  21. z says:

    agree with a lot of comments here… 1) the plane thing is just a revolting blatant lie, and 2) the guy in black face was a set up to cause controversy for the show… turns my stomach.

  22. Diana says:

    At least come up with an original story if you’re going to lie. YES KIM DID LIE!!!

    http://www.thesmokinggun.com/documents/baby-slapped-on-plane-571923

  23. Word Girl says:

    I can’t tell whether this incident happened or not, but from what I saw on the show, I wouldn’t be surprised if the plane incident really did happen. The host at the Vienna party, the comedian, the other dude that darkened his face, those Vienna citizens certainly didn’t have any integrity regarding the black population. It’s not far from too many people to take joy in another person’s pain. Yet, I must also consider the point that these incidents may have been staged for the show. You just never know, but I have seen how Irina Rodnina, the Olympian from Russia and the foriegn politician that disrespected Obama because of his skin color. It sure is sad that the Kardashian clan are not decent folks, because even if they are trying to be decent people, you can’t tell whether they’re telling the truth or not. If it did happen, then she held herself together pretty well and for that, I applaud her.

  24. Peppa says:

    I don’t believe it for a second. If it did happen, I think she probably exaggerated the incident. I am a little confused because no one really doubted the Vienna stuff actually happend, because it was an event that had lots of cameras and other people there. People doubted that it was authentic and not staged for the reality show.

  25. amanda says:

    she’s such a piece of sh*t.

    Nobody, not even she, deserves to be the receiver of racist remarks no matter who she makes babies for money with, but she’s using the ‘everybodys racist’ card to try and negate the fact that shes a piece of sh*t, and that shouldn’t fly.

    One has nothing to do with the other. If people are going to yell about her to her face on a plane, have it be about how shi**y she is instead of the color of her chosen lovers skin. She’s not shi**y because she likes black guys, she’s shi**y for a myriad of other reason unrelated, so lets focus on the important stuff, people.

  26. Tiffany says:

    Yeah, I knew it was crap when she said North was with her.

  27. Dawn says:

    My thoughts on Kim Kardashian being a liar – is the sky blue and is water wet? Yes KK is a liar. Were there some racist people at the Ball in Vienna? Likely but she couldn’t have been that upset because she didn’t leave and give the guy back the fee she earned and if one is totally that upset I do think that is what one would do. Or at least give the money to a charity but of course we know that is not something she did either. On the airline incident I call total one hundred and one percent B.S. As one poster pointed out to me here, that this happened to a woman on an airline, not sitting in first class and was reported and well documented. This did not happen to the queen of putting it all out there but I do believe she wishes it did. I think this is another nothing is too low for them to pull for ratings and nothing more.

    • almondey says:

      I’m not sure why you’d assume she’s supposed to give her money to charity? If you were on a business trip and made $5000 to attend a conference on your company’s behalf and experienced blatant racism there– would you want someone to tell you to hand that money over to charity? I don’t follow your line of reasoning here.

      • Bob Loblaw says:

        The implication is that because you’re taking the money from your “racist” host, it’s tainted and should be given away because you’re a good person who doesn’t want to take money from racists. At least that is how I read it.

  28. Tracy says:

    I don’t understand how people sit through a whole episode of the Katrashians. I made it through 1 minute and 25 seconds of the clip above. It is awful.

  29. Sam says:

    Yes, it is bull. When I saw this, I actually called my brother-in-law, who works in airline security. He confirmed that ANY passenger yelling or getting aggressive on a flight would have been addressed immediately. That is primarily because now, any passenger who gets rowdy or aggressive is automatically deemed a safety risk. The woman also would have been removed from the flight upon landing and questioned by security personnel (even if she was not arrested). Maybe years ago this would have happened, but today – no way.

    And that line – “shut that black baby up?” It’s from an actual incident that happened months ago, but in that case the man was arrested. I can’t help but think Kim got some “inspiration” from that. I do not doubt that maybe a fan got a little overzealous with her on the flight and maybe got pissed, but Kim is telling lies here, I have to think.

    Oh, and let me add – Where. Was. The. Security? Like the inciddent in the Dr.’s office before, are we really supposed to believe that Kim – traveling with her baby, no less – would not have at least one security guard with her? I know that celebs often contract for security elsewhere, but they often have a personal guard who will travel with them. Especially internationally? Kim seems to go a lot of places with no protection. I’m shocked Kanye the ego-maniac allows that.

    • Word Girl says:

      On the show,
      Kris did say that the airline security addressed the person doing it.

      • FingerBinger says:

        Yet there’s no public record of it. No one to corroborate this incident. Just Kim and Kris saying it happened.

      • Word Girl says:

        @ FingerBinger,
        Right, lol, that’s why I said up thread t you can’t take their word at face value, because everything about them is a façade, lmao.

    • Sandy says:

      Agree. The first thing I thought of was the teenager who purportedly called her names at the doctors’ office. I didn’t believe that one either!

  30. msmercury says:

    Another thing I want to add is this two of Kim’s husbands have been black. One was mixed and she’s been dating black men since high-school. I do think it is weird that she is having all these racist incidents since dating Kanye.

    I hate to question anyone to be honest because I take racism very seriously but maybe I’m just biased against this family. Again and again I wait for some kind of proof and always get smoke and mirrors. Blackface is never okay though.

  31. Anastasia says:

    Lie. Who even talks like that? And like others have said, that would have been ALL over the media as soon as the plane touched the ground and people got their data coverage back on.

  32. Ruyana says:

    Celebitchy is the only site where I click on K articles. I don’t want to encourage Radar and TMZ. I think she’s a liar and I don’t believe her at all. It’s just another plot point for their useless show. The Rob line didn’t work out well for them, so they had to try something else. I find each of them disgusting beyond belief. And I notice Kanye is hardly ever pictured with her – never mind the poor prop baby.

  33. Ti says:

    I still don’t get what is racist about citing a Kanye West song and change the word “Paris” to “Vienna”. If Kanye West doesn’t want people to use the n-word then he shouldn’t give his song a title that contains it.

    • almondey says:

      what’s the excuse for black face?

      • Ti says:

        there’s no excuse for that. that wasn’t funny at all. I just referred to the blonde guy who is a german comedian. I think is wasn’t meant as an offense, just a lame joke (quoting the song)

  34. Diana says:

    SHE SAID THIS TO PIERS MORGAN (google it) ..WHERE’S the police report? Notice didn’t say about North. She was yelling for 5hours and the plane didn’t stop before LA.
    Stupid bitch and mother can’t keep there stories straight.

    Kim Kardashian was verbally attacked for five hours on an international flight over her interracial relationship with Kanye West….

    “Some woman started screaming obscenities at me for being in a mixed-race relationship…and went on for about five hours,’” Kim told Piers Morgan at the annual ‘Night Before’ Oscars gala.
    “‘They called the police when we landed, and she was taken away,’” Kim added. “‘But it was so disgusting.’”
    When asked by the British talk show host how she felt about it, Kim replied, “Horrible. She just went on and on, shouting abuse at me. I phoned Kanye as soon as I got out of the airport, and he was so furious.”
    The incident happened on her way back to L.A. after attending the Vienna Opera Ball as the 81-year-old host’s date.
    Piers revealed Kim’s scary moment in his Daily Mail blog.
    The night turned into a nightmare when a comedian tastelessly wore blackface to impersonate Kim’s fiancé Kanye West and when the orchestra played “N—- in Vienna,” an offensive play on Kanye’s hit “N—- in Paris.”
    “The whole night was a disaster,” a source tells In Touch.

    • Bob Loblaw says:

      Again, only her word, absolutely no other proof, I find it impossible to believe this story would not have been covered and corroborated had it happened. We hear about drunks getting hauled off planes all the time, we heard about the baby slapping but somehow the everyone missed this five hour screaming fit? Kim’s a bad liar, she can never keep her lies straight and she embellishes too much.

  35. Kim1 says:

    I don’t believe her.She woke up and the baby was crying.Where was the nanny? The bodyguard? The personal assistant?
    If it happened she would have tweeted about it weeks ago.Khloe would have tweeted about it. This is not a live show it was taped months ago.
    Things like this happen all the time but if it happened to her we would have heard about it weeks ago.IMO

    • Jayna says:

      I heard about it back sometime after it happened. Somewhere along the line anyway the plane incident came out from Kim or Kanye or Kris. Not immediately after, though. More used to show evidence of discrimination and used that as an example. I remember thinking it was odd she nor Kris did anything about it. Funny how they tweet everything as it’s happening but they didn’t tweet that at the time.

  36. Shelley says:

    Um, no. Why would you believe her? She is made of lies. While the stuff in Vienna obviously happened, as it is all on video, I don’t believe that the plane incident ever happened. You mean to tell me there were NO witnesses? I mean, besides her mother. No one from that plane has ever spoken about it happening. It’s hard for me to believe that in this day and age no one else would not tweet about it or tell someone if they saw this go down. I call BS until I see/hear video/audio. It sucks what happened to her in Vienna, but she sucks for making up this plane story.

  37. Jayna says:

    All those people on the plane sitting around her, and this came out afterwards and never one person tweeted or anything about witnessing it and how awful the remark was. I find that odd. Maybe she’s not lying, but anything goes with that family to get ratings.

  38. OriginallyBlue says:

    I agree with everyone. The phrasing sounds like bad script writing. This is just being talked about now to coincide with this episode airing. Someone somewhere would have sold this story and you know damn well that Kanye would have gone off about this already. This reminds me of the other incident at the doctor’s office from a few months ago. All this stuff was supposedly yet no police report, no witnesses and Kanye ended up having to pay him (supposedly)

  39. skipper says:

    All of this seems suspect to me. She didn’t start making a big deal out of flying until people starting calling her out for flying separately from her daughter. I think she is trying to justify why she flies separately and privately. I don’t believe North was in that baby carrier at LAX either. There is no way she could have carried it so easily. She is so full of it!

  40. chloeee says:

    I thought she pretty much only flew private….

  41. Palermo says:

    Like Kim would ever be sitting WITH her baby on a plane.

  42. lisa2 says:

    . This happened months ago. (edited my post because I saw that someone posted that she told this story on Piers Morgan)

    Maybe now that the show has aired she is thinking she has proof of it happening; because it didn’t really make much news before. If it was me I would have made a big deal of it at the time. I think the problem celebs have is letting things pass. She should have called the person out. Let the world see her face. Let the people in her community know how racist she is. Let her neighbors and co worker, her church family know. Racist need to be revealed. You can hate whomever you want.. but if you want to go public with it then let’s go public. If you feel this way OWN IT IN THE FULL LIGHT OF THE WORLD.

    If this is made up then Kim and Kris are beyond disgusting.

    I also think if this had actually happened Kanye would have gone on some major media rant.. and he has said nothing at all.

  43. PreciousRobicheaux says:

    Did she lie? Is grass green?

  44. Zen1016 says:

    Liar, liar, pants on fire.

    She looks like she gaining weight or is it the butt making her look a bit plumper…

  45. alexandra says:

    So no one believes her story because it was not recorded. I have been in Austria and people are really racist. So I believe her story for sure

    • Bob Loblaw says:

      No one believes her story because she lies all the time to get attention. Racism is real here as well as in Austria. Nothing about Kim is real.

  46. drea says:

    Frankly, I would not be surprised if at least one of those incidents of racism was something bought and paid for by PMK. Wouldn’t put it past that family to hire someone to create that kind of incident in order to make her more sympatico to the public. She’s not the first famous non-black woman who’s ever dated a black man, but this has all happened to her very publicly and in such a compressed time frame.

  47. yuck says:

    Ya know, this is what happens when you let Lucifer’s Homegirl arrange your “escort” schedule. That old Austrian guy who so offended Kim? His reputation as an a**hole is apparently very well known all over Europe. Unless we’re to believe that Kris doesn’t know how to use Google or is unwilling to pay her assistant to use it, this whole story smells like a set-up to me. Wouldn’t this be just the PERFECT little drama to generate interest in KUTWK’s new (and flagging) season? And to follow up with purported confrontations with women in first class on the plane who are ALSO being “prejudiced” towards Kim and her golden child? Can anyone else substantiate this story? Cuz if it’s only coming from Kim–oops, I mean KRIS–it’s not believable.

    It’s all in the script, just ask Ryan Seacrest. And someone check the blackface guy’s bank account for any unusually large deposits from a U.S. bank.

  48. Anon says:

    Someone on the plane would have seen the incident and we would have heard about it longa before this. Also security of airline or attendants would have taken issue with it.. This did not take place period.

  49. The Original Mia says:

    Oh, please…she’s a lying liar. If this had happened, you can be sure before that plane landed we would have gotten news on social media about it.

  50. word says:

    So are we to assume there were no “black” people in first class? None of the flight attendants were “black” either? So this lady had a problem with a “black” baby and a woman who is married to a “black” man. Hey guess what, there are a lot of non-white people who are rich and can fly first class. This alleged woman acts like she’s never been near a “black” person before. This story sounds super fake especially since the plane was en route to LAX…that woman wouldn’t have made it out the airport without seeing every culture under the sun. This story is major BS. Not to mention someone would have filmed it on their phone or better yet PMK or Kim would have leaked it a long time ago. Kim is just trying to perpetuate Kanye’s rants as to say “See my husband isn’t crazy ! The world really does hate us because we are in an interracial relationship”. Oh please Kimye, you are not the first interracial couple on this planet and you won’t be the last. They just can’t handle the fact people don’t like them because they are annoying and obnoxious.

  51. Dani says:

    For some reason I don’t feel bad for her. Even with the black face scenario. If it bothered her so much she could have a) left the event or b) not aired it on national tv where she and her mom look more annoyed at the fact that they have to be at the event more than they are by the person in black face. She was paid 500k to be an ESCORT. I find it hard to feel any sympathy for this family, at all. If what she claims really happened on the plane, I don’t care how many rich people supposedly sit in first class, it would have been all over the internet if not by a passenger than by a stewardess.

  52. Nicole says:

    I believe her. It’s perfectly within the realm of possibility that someone would be a racist crazy, that the flight team would let her spout off and then escort her pleasantly back to her seat without trying to make an incident out of it. Nobody wants to deal with a crazy person on a plane and staff are trained to calm people whenever possible, not arrest them. If you guys say KimK lies, then that’s a possibility too, but I tend to believe her.

    • Jayna says:

      When she talked about this before she said the woman carried on harrassing her for five hours. I remember when she said that it was not believable. Go further up the thread. Someone posted the transcript of her describing it. Five hours? Sure. The airline crew would never have allowed it.

    • HappyMom says:

      Oh please. If this had actually happened it would have been a huge incident at the time. Not a plot point months later for their stupid, make believe “reality” show. The flight crew would never have allowed this to go on for FIVE hours. Someone else in first class would corroborate her story. She’s full of crap.

      • Petee says:

        Word!!How can people believe anything they do or say?It will be really sad day for them when something really bad does happen and no one believes them anymore.I don’t mean to put anyone down but how can anyone defend these people?Are you really that naive?

    • Bob Loblaw says:

      Don’t believe her Nicole, they make stuff up all the time for their fake reality show, it’s 100% scripted and completely fake, they spin stories like this to gain sympathy and seem human. Think about being on a plane, how could a woman brow beat her for five hours and nobody does anything about it or even notices? It fails the sniff test.

      • Nicole says:

        I guess I believe that it’s possible to be harassed and not have people taking videos. Not everybody does at all times. Maybe there is a rule in first class or maybe people are just too first-classy to do it. That five hours thing seems like bs though. That really discredits her story.

  53. Lux says:

    Does anyone else think she looks really masculine in the first photo? She looks like a dude in a wig and skirt.

  54. Susan says:

    The only thing that bothers me about the Vienna incidents is that the second incident with the reporter using the N word is somewhat ambiguous. He is just making a play on the actual name of Kanye’s song which is called “N in Paris”. He said “N in Vienna”. Tasteless probably but not overtly racist.

    The blackface incident..there is no defending.

  55. Jana says:

    That story is as fake as her hair, teeth, butt, boobs and the “baby” in the carriage….the only thing real about this woman is her ego.

  56. jwoolman says:

    No, the Vienna “incident” wasn’t racist. People were doing the usual goofing around they do at that ball with the rich old guy’s date, they just weren’t Americans and didn’t think dark makeup or referring to the actual title of her financé’s song could be a problem.

    And Kim lies repeatedly about everything. If one of her sisters said such things happened, the assumption would be that it’s true. But Kim lies, she just says whatever she thinks will get her what she wants. In Vienna, she got distraction from her own abominable behavior toward a paying client. Here, she gets people to believe that she actually slept next to her daughter because she’s so into quality bonding time. Please. We know other people are in charge of her daughter and Nori travels with her great-aunt and a nanny, who know how to take care if her.

  57. jwoolman says:

    (This was written as a reply to a comment about the Vienna ball but was bounced into a separate comment)
    It was theatrical makeup. The guy is a regular at the ball, he routinely dresses up as a significant other of the old guy’s date. I think he’s a local news guy or something. It’s all meant as a joke, and he was honestly surprised that Americans were labeling him racist (he’s actually a minority himself in Austria). To him, the makeup was just part of the costume, intended to look more like Kanye. Many Europeans have tried to explain that Europe is not the US, doesn’t have our history, and people don’t think of such things the same way because it just doesn’t bring up the same images and historical connections. Just as Kim wore a dress with an Iron Cross design to the ball, not even thinking that for many Austrians, that symbolizes the Nazi military. She doesn’t have the same emotional connection and just thought it was a pretty design. I was taken aback by it myself, but WWII was fresher in our minds when I was growing up. Anyway, when people if different cultures meet, there are bound to be misunderstandings of
    sort. And if Americans don’t want Europeans to think the n-word is benign in English, they better stop using it in songs and song titles…

    • TG says:

      Great post @ Jwoolman. Considering how rude PMK and Kim were to the Austrians I wouldn’t put it past her to have deliberately chosen that cross dress. Oh wait, never mind, only KimME and Kanye can get offended by racism, whether intended, made up or deliberate. Khloe can misappropriate Native American culture but since KimME’s baby is not of that race and it doesn’t further their agenda then it is okay I guess.

    • Petee says:

      Great post Jwoolman. I thought this was explained when it happened.It was just taped and edited to make her look like a victim for their stupid show.And I don’t want to go into the N word thing but he and all rappers need to stop using it in their music.I as a Native American was very insulted by Khloe in our sacred headdress with her ridiculous chant she posted.All races need to respect each other.It just seems like they have there own agenda and own set of rules when it comes to race.Basically khloe gave my culture the middle finger when confronted.Screw this vile family.

  58. Joh says:

    Verbal assault is assault . No arrest means no story to me.

  59. Sherlockapple says:

    I can’t see her tolerating someone farting the wrong way next to her, let alone harassing her on a plane for 5 hours, without her flipping out and getting help from security. she is FULL OF IT.

    • me says:

      Not to mention that no one else on the plane including the flight attendants did anything to shut the woman up? So all of first-class were racists who enjoyed listening to a 5 hour racist rant? I don’t believe that for one minute. Five whole hours and NO ONE recorded it…not even PMK or Kim ???? Yeah right.

      • Sherlockapple says:

        Exactly! Amy Adams discretely swapped seats with a soldier and it was tweeted all over the universe before the plane landed. You better believe that, if this actually happened for such a period of time, there would be tweets, videos and FB posts galore. Or at least a comment from a fellow passenger. Nada. Zip. She’s full of hot air, from her boobs to her as*.

        A side note-these type of racist comments do in fact occur across the country on a daily basis. I want to clarify that I’m not saying that it’s not possible nor that horrible treatment of mixed race families and couples do not exist, because IT DOES. My mother is half black and looks 100% black. My father is white. And he’s almost all Irish. So you can imagine how “white” he is. You can imagine the comments back in the 70’s and onward. And yes I do remember my mom covering me up with a blanket in my stroller when things got heavy. My entire life as a younger child was spent asking myself, “Why are people being mean to us when we didn’t do anything wrong?” and later in life “Did that person really just say that to us?” . So yeh, it happened then and it happens now, today, this second. But to Kim K on a plane? Nope. doesn’t add up at all.

  60. Today says:

    She seems crazy. However, she should always wear clothes like these 3 dresses. She looks so much better in loose dresses.

  61. Josefa says:

    I don’t believe her and lying about a situation like that is just disgusting. You can make up all the silly dramas you want, but don’t make up sh*t about serious topics. Some people really have to go through racism and the fact you’d use their stories and pain to keep your botox-filled ass famous is just beyond awful.

  62. Ming says:

    I don’t believe a word that comes out of a kardashian mouth..especially Kim’s.

  63. Brasileira says:

    I don’t buy the plane story for a second!

  64. DanaG says:

    I don’t believe it happened for a second we are supposed to believe this woman went off for five hours and the flight attendents didn’t do anything? No one got any video or pictures or tweeted about it? Just another of the lies the “reality” show is spouting for ratings. It’s like Scott and Kourtney splitting up then she get’s pregnant etc. None of the Kartrashian shows are realistic it’s all badly scripted but Kim is so stupid she actually believes the storylines like you know the one about her being a hands on mother….

  65. Vilodemeanus says:

    I don’t believe it. For one thing Norphan barely looks like she’s black, she’s very fair skinned. The other thing is Kim doesn’t travel with her child. She flies private and sends the kid with staff on commercial, she’s done this since the beginning. I guess if she and Kanye are flying they don’t want Norphan to interrupt them getting their groove on. *Bwhahahahaha* I joke, I joke! It’s clear she doesn’t travel with that baby by her TMZ towel baby she was shushing everyone about, don’t wake my hand towel she’s sleeping. That baby was already aboard a plane and in the sky before she got on her plane. Please, this woman is nothing if not a devious liar, I mean really she’s going to deal with a crying baby? A baby she barely sees under optimum conditions, and she’s going to fly with someone who’s little ears are pressurized? You must be mad if you think she doesn’t pay top dollar to ensure she never has to deal with Norphan.

  66. Godwina says:

    “I bet some idiot racist did come up to her on the plane.”

    Me too. Even the revolting KK gets the benefit of my doubt because I’m *extremely* uncomfortable about the knee-jerk tendencies white culture has of disavowing racist incidents they weren’t around to witness either way. This kind of racist abuse goes down ALL THE TIME. Odds are way more likely this actually happened than anyone (even a fame-chaser like KK) lying about it. And I always side with the odds.

  67. Sisi says:

    I thought that earlier this year there were items about how kim flies first class while the nanny is with nori in Economy…

    that would mean that they aren’t even int eh same part of the plane
