Dressed in a sparkling Gucci turtleneck outfit and 8-inch gold heels to the award event, Kim lost her balance and almost fell straight into nearby bushes, creating a scene that quickly caught attention.
A video of the incident soon made its way to social media, especially on X, where users had plenty to say. While some fans expressed concern for their favourite celebrity, others turned the moment into a humorous one.
One social media commentator, @JebraFaushay, mocked the situation, suggesting that the fall could have been avoided if Kim had chosen more comfortable footwear. According to the post, wearing extremely high heels comes with risks, joking that simple footwear might have saved her from the embarrassing moment.
She noted:
"If you don’t want to fall into the bushes like Kim Kardashian, don’t wear 8 inch heels. This would have never happened if she was wearing a pair of Crocs."
The clip has continued to trend online, with many users sharing mixed reactions, ranging from sympathy to playful teasing, as Kim Kardashian once again finds herself at the centre of viral attention, even off the red carpet.
