Kim: ‘I’m the skinniest I’ve ever been’
The star credits flu for her transformation
Most of us would be gutted to get the flu, but not Kim Kardashian. Last week, the star credited falling ill with the virus for her recent 6lb weight loss. Every cloud, eh?
After she was pictured looking slimmer than ever heading out for dinner in LA in a pair of high-waisted leather trousers and a crop top, the star wrote on her site, “The flu can be an amazing diet. So happy it came in time for the Met lol #6lbsdown.”
A n insider tells heat, “Kim is telling everyone she’s the skinniest she’s ever been. She’s admitted she’d love to lose more weight. She loves the headlines she’s getting for her body, and wants to outshine sisters Khloé and Kylie to become the most talked about. She’s even joked how it took her two months to shed 7lb through diet and exercise, and just two weeks to lose it when sick.”
We all know that Kim, 36, isn’t afraid to go to extreme lengths to look good. After all, this is a woman who covered her face in her own blood in a bid to have younger-looking skin. And ahead of the Met Gala in New York on 1 May, Kim is determined to do what it takes to look her best.
The star – who has fouryear-old daughter North and 16-month- old son Saint with rapper husband Kanye West – has been criticised for her Met looks in the past, most notably in 2013, when she walked the red carpet heavily pregnant in a floral gown with matching gloves and shoes.
A source says, “All eyes will be on her at the Met Gala, and she wants to turn heads and look amazing. Kim’s desperate to make up for her past fashion fails. Her recent weight loss has really spurred her on. She wants to look better than ever.” n KAT ROMERO
