Man accosts Kim Kardashian in Paris for second time

-

Serial celebrity accoster Vitalii Sediuk has struck again, this time at Paris Fashion Week, targeting Kim Kardashian’s derriere as she was entering an exclusive restaurant.

Kardashian’s makeup artist Mario Dedivanovi­c caught the Wednesday incident on video and posted it to his Instagram account.

It showed the reality television star negotiatin­g her way through a crowd of paparazzi past her black car, as Sediuk, a former Ukrainian television reporter, swooped in and attempted to kiss Kardashian’s posterior.

The security detail is seen to react immediatel­y and pull him to the floor amid cries and expletives from the crowd in front of the L’Avenue eatery.

In a statement to The Associated Press, Sediuk confirmed he perpetrate­d the attack as a protest “to popularize natural beauty among teenage girls.”

He also claimed that it was not premeditat­ed — and it was a “coincidenc­e” that both he and Kardashian happened to be at the same spot.
