Kim Kardashian spotted flying out of LA for first public appearance in NYC after Paris robbery... as husband Kanye West cancels remaining tour dates following epic on-stage rant

• e-mail

Her husband hit the headlines over the weekend after interrupting yet another concert with an on-stage rant. 

And Kim Kardashian looked as though she was getting away from the drama as she boarded a private jet in the early hours of Monday to fly from Los Angeles to New York for her first public appearance since the traumatic Paris robbery in October.

The star was spotted climbing aboard the flight from Van Nuys airport in California on Sunday - just hours prior to husband Kanye cancelling the remainder of his Saint Pablo tour dates.

Flying away: Kim Kardashian was spotted boarding a private jet in the early hours of Monday to fly out of Los Angeles to New York for her first public appearance since the Paris robbery in October 

Kim covered up for her early flight, wearing a loose black hoodie as she headed on board.

There was no sign of Kanye as the mother of two arrived for her flight alone.

Kim will make an appearance at Denise Rich's Angel Ball on Monday, to celebrate 20 years of funding life-saving cancer research.

She will join her siblings Rob, Kourtney and Khloe and their mother Kris Jenner to honour her late father Robert Kardashian, who died of esophageal cancer in 2003, at Cipriani Wall Street.

'She is expected to appear,' an insider has told Page Six. 'People were working on convincing her to come last week. She would join the family on stage to accept the award, but who knows if she will speak for the family,' another source said.

Monday's event will mark the first public appearance in almost two months for Kim who has been a near-recluse after she was bound and gagged in Paris on October 3, as part of a shocking heist that resulted in $11m worth of jewels stolen from the couple's apartment.

The drama continued later that day for the star however when her husband Kanye West announced he was cancelling the remainder of his tour.

A representative for the rapper said on Monday the remaining dates of West's current tour have been cancelled, but no reason was given.

The tour, now in California and with dates through Dec. 31, had future stops in Dallas, Denver, Atlanta, Philadelphia, Detroit, Boston, New York City and Washington, D.C., among others.

A source close to West told Us Weekly: 'He's just exhausted. He's been working around the clock on fashion design, both his own line and the Adidas line. 

More drama: Kim's husband Kanye West announced he was cancelling the remainder of his Saint Pablo tour later that day

'He's a notorious workaholic ... so balancing both that work — which is extremely important to him – and the rigors of the tour every night, it really wore him out. All the time spent away from his family has been a stress on him, as well. They are the most important to him.

'Obviously he's a professional and wants to give his fans a great experience, and I think his gut was telling him not to extend the tour through the end of the year, but he decided to push through. He doesn't want to give his fans anything less than the best.' 

The cancellation comes two days after the rapper stunned Sacramento concert-goers with a bizarre rant during his show.

Show's over: Kanye left fans shocked once again after abruptly ending the Saint Pablo concert in Sacramento, California, on Saturday after just 10 minutes and after another fiery rant taking aim at several people

The rapper launched into a tirade on stage, taking aim at Taylor Swift, Hillary Clinton and Mark Zuckerberg - and even his once close friend Beyoncé - before asking her husband Jay Z to call him.

Fans took to Twitter to report that the rapper then abruptly ended the show at the Golden 1 Center after just 10 minutes and performing only two songs. They also claim he showed up on stage an hour-and-a-half late.

On Sunday it was announced the star would not be playing The Forum in Los Angeles, with a tweet sent just three hours before the scheduled start date confirming refunds would be given. 

'Get ready to have a field day press 'cause the show's over.' Kanye barked and dropped his mic to boos from the crowd on Saturday night. 

Late: Fans said on Twitter the rapper showed up on stage an hour-and-a-half late Saturday

In a clip posted to social media the Famous hitmaker was heard telling the audience: 'Beyonce I was hurt because I heard you said you wouldn't perform unless you won video of the year over me and over Hotline Bling.

'In my opinion - now don't go dissing Beyoncé, she's great. Taylor Swift is great. We are all great people. But sometimes we be playing the politics too much and forget who we are - just to win.

'F**k winning, f**k looking cool, f**k being cool.'

Realizing that he was possibly going to lose a lot of fans with his angry words and ending the concert early Kanye added: 'At the risk of my own success. I'll give ya'll the truth.'

Call me! During his rant, the controversial rapper urged his former pal Jay Z - with whom he's pictured in 2012 - to call him

The Fade rapper - who brought Kid Cudi onto the stage during his brief performance - was then heard pleading for Beyoncé's husband Jay-Z to call him to talk things out. 

'Jay Z, I know you got killas. Please don't send them at my head. Just call me—talk to me like I man,' he said. 

After telling the audience he is 'just a man... the same as everybody here', he added: 'This is the future. This is the way of thinking to make America great again.'

This was met by boos, but Kanye simply laughed and said: 'You don't like that. Guess what? Y'all need the vibes. I was hurt. Feelings matter, bro. The way motherf****** put money up so high. Popularity. Radio spins. Feelings matter, bro. 

'It's a new world, Hillary Clinton. It's a new world. Feelings matter. Because guess what? Everybody in middle America felt a way, and they showed you how they felt... It's a new world Barack. It's a new world Jay Z.'

Not happy: Another fan wrote that he wants his money back

Disappointed: User yzy.yeezy was sad that she'd traveled so far to see the rapper perform

 

Far from impressed: Those in attendance at the concert shared their version of events 

He then added: 'If you keep following old models, your ass is going to get Hillary Clinton'd.

'I ain't here to massage you with the fake truth, telling you that Hillary going to win over and over and over. Then you wake up and you still can't believe it. You know why? Because you was lied to by Google. You was lied to by Mark Zuckerberg.' 

Alongside a video clip of the moment Fox40 reporter Joe Khalil wrote: 'After showing up an hour and a half late to #sacramento concert did #kanye West just walk off stage?? @FOX40'

Fan Whitney Polk wrote on Facebook: 'He played the same song twice, stopped in the middle in the second song, ranted foe about ten minutes, and then walked off stage.' 

Saturday's incident comes after the hip-hop star shocked a crowd in San Jose by revealing his support for US President-elect Donald Trump while suggesting he still plans to challenge him in 2020. 

Here he goes again: Kanye has garnered a reputation for going into rants during shows

Rocking the vote: Beyonce and Jay Z shared the stage with Hillary during a Get Out The Vote concert at the Wolstein Center in Cleveland, Ohio, just days before the presidential election

After a campaign in which fellow artists and African Americans overwhelmingly backed rival Hillary Clinton, the rapper told an audience Thursday night that he did not vote - but would have chosen the Republican candidate.

'Because I'm a celebrity, everyone told me not to say that I loved the debates, I loved his approach,' Kanye said in a lengthy on-stage speech, prompting loud boos and aghast reactions on social media.

Kanye said that Trump, who ran on cracking down on immigration and won through white working-class support, could help bring about change by exposing racism.

Mentioned: The star's longtime nemesis Taylor Swift was also mentioned during his tirade

Target: Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg was also targeted in Kanye's most recent stage rant

Does he get your vote? Kanye had previously stated that while he didn't vote in the recent US presidential election, he likely would have voted for subsequent victor Donald Trump

'If people are racist and they feel more inspired to say how they feel, then they're exposing themselves,' he said.

'To black people - stop focusing on racism. This world is racist, okay? Let's stop being distracted to focus on that as much,' he said, according to a video of the event.

Kanye - the husband of Kim, who like Trump has built a following through reality television - last year said he planned to run for president in 2020.

The way they were: Kanye and Jay Z and their wives appeared far more friendly back in 2012

Exclusive: As recently as August, the couples - and a host of stars - dined together during an exclusive gathering following the MTV Video Music Awards

He appeared to be serious, telling the San Jose concert on Thursday: 'I don't say 2020 because I disrespect our president at all... I've just got some ideas about the way we should connect.'

The rapper proposed that President Barack Obama and Hillary take roles in advising Trump, running the United States through 'collective ideas.'

Kanye in the past has backed President Obama and famously irritated former president George W. Bush by suggesting he responded slowly to Hurricane Katrina because he did not care about African Americans.

But Kanye has had a warm relationship with the president-elect, who last year said: 'I'll never say bad about him... because he loves Trump.' 

Going in different directions: In recent months, Kanye and Jay Z - who launched the successful Watch The Throne album and tour in 2012 - appear to have drifted apart
