Kim Kardashian’s plan to take Karl Lagerfeld’s cat as her Met Gala date was dashed when the moggy attacked her. The 43-year-old star hoped to take the late designer’s feline friend – who was left $1.5 million in her owner’s will when he passed away in 2019 – to the annual fashion extravaganza, which was themed around the Chanel icon, but quickly realised it wasn’t a good idea when their first meeting didn’t go too well.
Speaking on the latest episode of ‘The Kardashians’, Kim said: “So we just left London, and our next leg on our soccer tour is to Paris, to see Paris Saint Germain play, and while I’m here, I have a little meeting with Choupette, Karl Lagerfeld’s cat, because Choupette is supposed to be my date for the Met. I want to spend some time with her, get to know her, and just see if we vibe.”
Once she met with the cat, who is reportedly worth an estimated $13 million, the 42-year-old tried to stroke and pick up the cat, but Choupette was not happy, and repeatedly hissed and took swipes at the TV star.
She admitted: “She is feisty. Choupette is really key to my whole vibe for the Met this year, so if we don’t vibe, I don’t know what I’m gonna do. I just hope she warms up to me … cause this wouldn’t be cute.”
After the fierce feline continued to hiss at her, Kim finally conceded the pair wouldn’t make it to the Met Gala together.
She said: “So I’m getting a little bit nervous and I think I just fully wanna pivot. There’s so many factors I think could be negative, especially with the cameras and the people. Even if she’s scared from the cameras and not me. I don’t know if it’s fair to Choupette, so I think I realised really quickly that, Choupette, we’re not a match, so I’m not bringing her to the Met.”
