WATCH: Kanye West stops show mid-song after learning Kim Kardashian robbed at gunpoint

Carl Kinsella

Kanye West gets criticised for a lot of things, but you certainly can’t hold this against him.

After learning that his wife, Kim Kardashian, had been held up and robbed at gunpoint in Paris, Kanye West did what anybody would do and stopped the concert immediately.

Halfway through a rendition of Heartless, Kanye West says “I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I have an emergency, I have to stop the show.”

Kardashian had been staying at the Ritz in Paris for Paris Fashion Week when she was held up in her hotel room by armed men dressed as police.

According to reports, the men stole millions of dollars worth of jewellery. A representative for Kim Kardashian told CNN that Kim was shaken but unharmed by the traumatic event.
