Kim irked that mom bagged designer gift

- | Bang Showbiz

KIM KARDASHIAN West was furious when Karl Lagerfeld snubbed her after a fashion shoot and gave an expensive bag to her mother Kris Jenner instead.

The Keeping Up With the Kardashian­s star was excited about her first photoshoot with the fashion designer and had been tipped off by friends that he usually gave his models a special accessory.

She was horrified when her mother, who is also her manager struck up a bond with the legend.

Kardashian, who was pregnant with her daughter North when Carine Roitfeld asked her to do the shoot for her CR Fashion Book magazine, said: “I go to Paris. My mom comes with me.

“I sit there; I wait. I do the fitting… I had told one of my girlfriend­s that I’m doing this with Karl, and she’s like, ‘Oh my God, he’s going to give you a bag. He gives everyone of his models, especially on their first shoot, a bag’.

“Halfway through the shoot, my mom walks in and she’s wearing Chanel leggings, Chanel thigh-high boots, blazer, turtleneck, dangling earrings, Chanel cuffs, gloves, sunglasses, beret: She was decked in Chanel from the ’80s.

“Karl stops the shoot and walks over to her and is like, ‘Oh my God, are you her mother? I remember this jacket! I remember these gloves! I did those earrings!’ The two of them have this love affair like I’ve never seen before.

“I’m like ‘this is so embarrassi­ng, and this is so annoying’. I remember texting my sisters. ‘Guys, mom is stealing my shiiiine. This is my first fashion shoot!’

“So then the shoot’s over, and he comes out with something behind his back. And I’m like: ‘THE BAAAAAG. IT’S HEEEERRE. OH MY GOD’. “I’m thinking: I will cherish this forever, and I’m pregnant, so one day I’ll give this bag to my daughter. Then he comes up and he’s like, ‘Kim, this was the best shoot. Thank you so much. But Kris, here is a bag for you’, and he gives the f***ing bag to my mom.”

She cried afterwards as she felt her “momager” had taken over her day.
