Kim Kardashian attacked by Vitalii Sediuk at Paris Fashion Week event
Kim Kardashian was apparently jostled by someone waiting in a large crowd outside her car at a Paris Fashion Week event on September 25.
Kim Kardashian, 33, had just exited her car at the posh Hotel Salomon de Rothschild when the kerfuffle erupted around 3 p.m.
In a video posted on TMZ.com, Kim Kardashian appears to stumble briefly after a person lunges towards her feet. Bodyguards instantly push Kim Kardashian out of the way and subdue someone who remains off camera.

Vitalii Sediuk, a former Ukrainian television reporter, told The Associated Press in an email that he is the person in the video, and that he’d only been trying to hug the star.
A representative for Kim Kardashian, Ina Treciokas, said the reality star had no comment about the incident.
Vitalii Sediuk, 25, has gained a reputation for outlandish pranks on red carpets in Moscow, Los Angeles and Cannes.
In May 2014, Vitalii Sediuk was arrested and spent two days in jail after jostling with Brad Pitt at a film premiere in Los Angeles. He also crawled underneath America Ferrera’s dress at a film premiere at the Cannes Film Festival.
