Kim Kardashian's Runway Ruckus: 'Is She Drunk?' Fans Chime In!

Kim Kardashian is being roundly trolled for her awkward runway walk, with fans sniggering that she looked 'drunk' or 'like a tired toddler'

Kim Kardashian's Cringe-Worthy Runway Strut Leaves Fans in Stitches

In a jaw-dropping display of awkwardness, Kim Kardashian took to the catwalk for Balenciaga at Paris Fashion Week, leaving fans and fashion enthusiasts alike in stitches. The 44-year-old reality TV star's attempt at sultry sophistication was met with snickers and giggles as she sashayed down the runway like a tired toddler trying to sneak into the playroom unnoticed.

Kris Jenner, Kim's momager extraordinaire, proudly posted a video of her daughter's infamous strut on Instagram, captioning it "Runway Queen." However, instead of raving reviews, Kim's performance was met with a chorus of mocking remarks and side-splitting jokes. Fans couldn't help but point out that Kim looked like she'd just downed two margaritas and was trying to sneak into the bathroom without being seen.

One eagle-eyed observer compared Kim's walk to "Me sleepwalking from the potty back to my bed at 4am." Another witty commenter quipped, "She walks like a girl who wet herself!" While others couldn't help but notice that Kim looked "like Me after my husband says no"... or worse, "constipated!"

But what really had fans in hysterics was Kim's outfit – a tip of the hat to Elizabeth Taylor's iconic lace-trimmed nightie from her 1958 film Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. Kris Jenner revealed that Kim was wearing Elizabeth's personal diamond pendant earrings from Lorraine Schwartz's private collection, which only added to the drama.

As fans struggled to make sense of Kim's awkward strut, they couldn't help but draw parallels between it and her tumultuous relationship with Balenciaga. Just last year, Kim became an ambassador for the brand, but things took a turn when Balenciaga released a controversial ad campaign featuring children in bondage gear – complete with teddy-bear-shaped purses and empty wineglasses.

Kim was quick to distance herself from the campaign, releasing a statement denouncing the images and vowing to re-evaluate her relationship with the brand. "I am currently re-evaluating my relationship with the brand, basing it off their willingness to accept accountability for something that should have never happened to begin with – & the actions I am expecting to see them take to protect children," she said.

But despite Kim's efforts to put the controversy behind her, fans couldn't help but notice that her awkward runway walk was eerily reminiscent of the backlash she faced after the Balenciaga campaign. As one fan so aptly put it, "Kim walks like a girl who just got caught with her hand in the cookie jar!"
