Kim Kardashian wasn’t snubbed by Anna Wintour, sources claim

Yesterday, a lot of you seemed to enjoy the story about Anna Wintour “banning” Kim Kardashian from the Met Gala. Allegedly, Wintour loathes everything Kardashian, and Wintour made sure that Kanye West (who went to the Met Gala) did not bring Kim. I thought it was kind of a meaningless “statement” to make on Wintour’s part – if she really feels that way – considering that she allowed the likes of Camilla Belle, Kate Bosworth and Ashley Greene to walk the red carpet too. Are we supposed to think that those girls are somehow not as “bad” as Kim Kardashian because they’re “actresses”? Because, personally, I think all of those women are at the same level of C-list importance. Anyway, E! News tried to do some damage control on the story, claiming that Kim was NEVER supposed to attend the Met Gala anyway:

While the best and brightest of the sartorial set converged in New York Monday night for the Met Gala—aka the Oscars of fashion—there was one flashbulb-attracting name that was absent from the festivities, almost conspicuously so. It didn’t take long for rumors to spread that the reason for Kim Kardashian’s absence from the event (her arm candy Kanye West did attend, solo) was that she’d somehow fallen foul of Vogue editrix Anna Wintour’s bad side and was banned from attending.

But was Kim really disinvited from the ball? Hold on to that haute couture, because this rumor is… So false!

No such snubbing took place, and in fact, the real reason for Kim’s absence is a simple one: She’s a professional. As it happens, Kim’s jam-packed schedule—and not some imagined feud with the most powerful woman in publishing—prevented her from attending, as a source close to the Kardashian family told E! News she was booked on the other side of the country, in Los Angeles, for an all-day photoshoot for a European fashion magazine.

Kim was never disallowed from the attending the gala event, nor was she forewarned of any potential ice between her and Wintour should she have attended…though that was never the plan and the source told E! News, “She couldn’t have gone even if she wanted to. The shoot was scheduled for months in advance.”

In any case, you can’t keep a good woman down, even with a silly rumor, and Kim is continuing her sartorial week apace. Today she and her sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Khloé Kardashian Odom are shooting a new fashion campaign for their Sears line.

So, do you buy this? I think Kim was in LA, working. But do I buy that “working in LA” was always her plan? What self-respecting C-list reality star and self-styled “Fashion Girl” schedules something in LA on the day of the Met Gala? Deep thoughts.

More Kim K. news – she wrote a blog post about President Obama’s advocacy of gay marriage yesterday. You can read it here. And Us Weekly reports that a different kind of marriage is on Kim’s mind – apparently, Kim and Kanye are still totally talking about getting married.

Kanye West is prepping some new material: his vows. One month after the Grammy winner professed his love for gal pal Kim Kardashian, 31, on his single “Way Too Cold” (formerly “Theraflu”), he’s singing about her again, a source tells Us Weekly.

On an upcoming track by hip-hop artist Pusha T, West, 34, raps, “I saw you in the club in a white dress/Now I want to put you in a white dress.”

The lyrics are hardly hot air, says a second source: “Kim and Kanye are 100 percent having conversations about marriage.”

Kardashian and the rapper first stepped out as a couple in NYC in March, but an insider close to the duo assures Us their romance was years in the making.

West pursued Kardashian “for a long time” the source explained. Echoed another source, “They’ve been friends for years. Kim is ready to give it a try now.”

[From Us Weekly]

If Kanye does propose to Kim, I think it will be his most self-destructive act so far. That man is very self-destructive, self-defeating and for the most part, Kanye is Kanye’s worst enemy. I want to think Kanye would step away from the (Kardashian) abyss when it came down to it, but God knows.

    And the “source” being Kim’s mom?

    • Aiobhan says:

      Probably. Who else would care enough to reply to this story other than Kim’s camp. Anna has to find the next skinniest over 18 model to put on the next Vogue cover. She has a real job to do. Please note the sarcasm.

  2. lassie says:

    I believe her. She’d rather stay home and wax herself or wedge herself into her leather pants.

    At least her mom thinks she’s cool.

  3. Tiffany27 says:

    Sure hooker, you didn’t go because you were “busy”.

  4. bns says:

    Waiting for a “source” from Anna Wintour’s camp to cut this bitch down.

  5. Ama says:

    Um.

    “Kim and her camp will deny that she wasn’t invited by saying that she had business in L.A., but that is a lie,” the source says. “She would of done anything to be there with all the A-listers.”

    Yeah.

    • Sweettart says:

      Exactly,

      I have to say though, Wintour looks really good for being in her 60’s. Lilo should take note.

  6. Uma says:

    Damage control!!! For the past three years Kim has been tweeting about dying to go to the Met Gala!!! It would be her dream to be seen on the red carpet, and I think this year she thought she had a chance bc Kanye is sleeping with her, but someone idk if its Beyonce or Anna Wintour did not allow that to happen!! And if you looked at papz pics of Kim all she did on Monday was go to the gym in Kanye’s car and run errands! This story is beyond bs!! Plus Kim always tweets about her photo shoots, yet she didn’t but she did tweet about the Met Gala and she made it seem like she was there by saying “cant wait to see all the fashions at the Met Gala” plus this event was at night, and not many Kim shoots are done at night! Give me a f–king break! This family are so stupid and predictable!

  7. tru tru says:

    don’t beleive the “sources”..

    she would KILL to be at that event, every year she tweets about the outfits.

    This trashbag nds to disappear, don’t beleive that K is planning on marrying her–especially not this soon.

    every since his mom passed in the manner that she did–he just keeps doing it to himself…

    Trashians love to prey on men that have lil to NO family.

    ie LamLam STAYLosing Odom

    he’s a joke in the sports industry now.

    Kum does not belong at the MET, Anna runs that and she can do whatever she wants

  8. Bad Gal Addiction says:

    Another thought why she wasn’t there:

    B*tch is way too cheap to buy a Met Gala ticket for 20 stacks. She only appears at events if there are goodie-bags with loads of free stuff or they actually pay here for attendence.

  9. Blue says:

    Sure Kim, whatever you say. People know when the Met gala is. Kim is an attention whore, and would love to rub shoulders with real celebs. I don’t believe for one second she would schedule something for that weekend. She knew she wasn’t going to be invited and decided to book some work to cover her tail.

    Kanye’s quality of woman has been going down since his mother died, right?

    • PG says:

      I don’t understand him wanting a relationship with Kim. His Mother died from plastic surgery and now he dates someone who is addicted to it.

  10. mk says:

    Photoshoots are in the morning usually aren’t they? The Gala thing was in the evening so she could have hopped a plan and made it if she was really invited.

  11. dahlianoir says:

    That, would be the famewhore royal wedding of all times. CAN’T WAIT.

    • Rice says:

      I can see it now. Kanye will interrupt the priest and say, “I’m a let you finish…” What a couple of dumbasses. They deserve each other.

  12. Uma says:

    Kim is such a pretentious little bitch! She is the same bitch that went to Paris fashion week to pretend like she was gonna go to the high end fashion shows only to end up going to Kanye’s dumb show, and she flew right back the next day bc no other show would have her. She tweeted “I cant wait to see all the amazing SHOWS at PFW” She went to only ONE show bc Kanye was the only one that would have her! Even Kanye couldnt give her a pass to the elite shows. People dont realize you cant buy your way into the fashion elite and they hate people like trashy Kim. She deceives all her simple minded fans!

  13. MW says:

    Maybe Anna Wintaur hates her style more than I do and said “please, I just won’t look at that all night”. Kinda like Emeril Lagasse being served a can of Campbell’s soup for lunch. I do like, surprisingly, that black dress in the second pic up there.. Probably not KK’s choice though.

  14. KJ says:

    Holy shit, the first picture at the bottom looks like if Mattel came up with a Kardashian Barbie and not a real person. Where the hell did her nose go?

    I love that when word was going around the Nuclear Wintour banned her, the source was very quick to shut Kim’s inevitable excuses down early. “And don’t believe that bitch when she says she had better things to do or was busy. She’ll probably release a statement about it in 3…2…1…”

    And here we are.

  15. jess says:

    Everyone knows that Kim would have loved to attend the met gala with Kanye. They would have gotten all the attention and with the season premiere of Keeping up the Kardashians coming up it would be great pr. I have to disagree with the comment about Ashley Greene, Kate Bosworth because they might be C-list actresses but they are still above reality stars. As for Camilla, what exactly is she famous for? All I know her is the girl who stole Joe Jonas away from Taylor Swift.

    • Uma says:

      I agree! People that write this Blog always stand up for Kim, I mean does she pay you like she pays other sites? I mean give me a break! Kate Bosworth is an actress, she may not be Angelina but she has legit fame that she deserves and she is naturally gorgeous! As for Camilla she started out as an actresses NOT a porn star! The first movie I saw her in was ‘when a stranger calls’ and she was pretty good in it, again legit fame not leaking a sex tape then whoring yourself and your whole family, and making lies and fake stories to get pr, and sham weddings and deceiving people. And Camilla seems like a classy young girl and she is beyond beautiful naturally of course! You cant compare that gross fake in every way porn star thing you call Kim K to those girls! Kim is a Z list in Hollywood! Don’t let the white house dinner thing fool you bc that doesn’t mean shit, and it was done to give Obama a bad name! NO one has respect for someone that got pee’d on and that had a sham wedding for money and ratings.

  16. bluhare says:

    What surprises me is that Kanye West went without her. If I were “serious” about someone and found out someone would not allow my b/gf to go, I wouldn’t either.

    Note to Kim: He cares more about publicity than you. Like that’s a surprise.

    • Chellez says:

      i see your point, but i don’t know how that really applies here, in terms of whether or not he takes her serious.

      Kanye has a collection to promote. He’s a “designer” and loves couture, having interned for a few exclusive companies (Chanel?) and pairing with LV. For better or worse, he’s more fit to be there, in the fashion-business sense, than she is. He would be a fool and immediately outcast by the fashion people he so wants to emulate to not go and risk becoming an enemy of Wintour’s!

      • Playlist says:

        You both have a point, but relationships are supposed to be a partnership and if she can’t even qualify to be his plus one, then it can’t be much of a relationship for either of them, whether it’s for real or for PR.

        Everyone can see Kim got snubbed by both Anna and Kanye. Trying to publicly cover it up only opens the door for everyone to call her out on it and makes her an even bigger fool. Which I didn’t think was possible. Kim has no limits on self-humiliation. I guess getting peed on does that to a girl.

        Two douche-bags dating seem like a good match, but vultures don’t survive by being loyal. They may share a life raft but only because they both understand they’re going to need dinner sooner or later.

  17. Dawn says:

    I don’t believe it. I find it refreshing that someone does not care about her or her tacky family. There is nothing real about any of the Kartrashians except their love of money and the fact they will do anything to get it.

  18. Sam says:

    Posted a day or two ago on The Superficial:

    “Kim and her camp will deny that she wasn’t invited by saying that she had business in L.A., but that is a lie,” the source says. “She would of done anything to be there with all the A-listers.”

    Lol. Too predictable.

  19. marie says:

    please, that b*tch was snubbed.. I can see her tearing up when she found out she wasn’t invited..”What do you mean I’m not allowed to attend? Oh yeah, well I didn’t want to come anyway.. Take that Anna..”

  20. NeNe says:

    I fully 100% believe that Anna Wintour banned her from being there. I call bullsh*t on Kim’s so called source (her sister(s) or her famewh*ring mother).

    Guess her relationship of convenience with Kanye isn’t working out to well for her, now is it!!! I think the whole world needs to ban this self absorbed fake POS.

  21. Jax says:

    Anna Wintour was on The Colbert Report last night. I didn’t think I would bother watching the interview, but I did and she held her own with him. I don’t think we will hear anything else out of Anna’s camp on this. If her mouthpiece already preempted it, then she’s over it since she obviously feels above responding to this trash. And yeah Kanye, showing up to an event that his GF would love to go to w/o GF…..it shows where his priorities are…..I’d love to hear Kim spin that one…..to herself.

  22. Gene Parmesan says:

    She was busy ‘creating’ duh!!

  23. dorothy says:

    Sources being Kris. We all knew they would come out with a denial. Their so transparent and predictable.

  24. jover says:

    If that’s true uma, bravo for the Parisian fashion world, now why won’t our doltish media follow their example?

  25. Kim says:

    B.S. She would have been there in a nanosecond if invited. Especially since the supposed new love of her life was there. KIM WASNT INVITED. WHy does she bother responding when she knows we are laughing in her face – oh i forgot she loves stuff in her face thats how she got infamous.

  26. Hubbahun says:

    AW exudes evil…*shudder*

  27. Shoe_lover says:

    everyone knows “source” in this case means Kris Jenner

    while i am no fan of Camilla Belle, Kate Bosworth and Ashley Greene especially not Bosworth they are at least actresses- not skanks who got famous by intentionally releasing a s#x tape.

  28. Kosmos says:

    I look forward to the day when we don’t have to hear the name Kardashian…I’m so sick of them, I’m obviously not one of the pack of followers. Even the men I know have nothing good to say about these fakes.

  29. chris says:

    Camilla Belle and Kate Bosworth are great fashionistas who are classy.

    Don’t level them with Kim and Ashley. Please!
