What family emergency? Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian grin as they flaunt figures in racy dresses at the Angel Ball... as it emerges Kanye West has been hospitalised
It had just emerged their beloved brother-in-law Kanye West had been hospitalised after suddenly cancelling the rest of his tour.
But that did not stop Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian from wearing wide smiles as they stoically walked the red carpet at the Angel Ball in New York on Monday.
The pair were literally grinning and bearing it as they attended the star-studded studded charity event in contrasting, yet similarly racy, outfits.

Grinning and bearing it: Kourtney and Khloe Kardashian stoically smiled at the Angel Ball in New York on Monday despite another family emergency
Perhaps they felt obliged to attend as their late father Robert Kardashian, who worked on OJ Simpson's defence team during his infamous murder trial in 1994, was being honoured at the event.
Mother-of-three Kourtney was looking resplendent in a black dress which gave a generous view of her cleavage.
It also featured a cutaway skirt that displayed the 37-year-old's toned thighs and also gave a teasing glimpse of her seeming lack of panties when viewed from the side, though arguably enough was hidden to keep it classy.

Khloe Kardashian sizzled in New York City as she stepped out with her sister Kourtney and mom Kris to attend the Angel Ball in honor of her late father Robert Kardashian.
In the midst of many family troubles, Khloe looked as if there isn't a thing wrong in her universe.

Self styled chat show host Khloe, 32, meanwhile went for a perhaps even racier look of nude sheer gown, which was covered in strategically placed silver and diamond detailing. She carried a Judith Leiber clutch.
The ladies' father Robert Kardashian, who died of esophageal cancer in 2003, was being honored at the Angel Ball, which was held at the Wall Street branch of upscale restaurant Cipriani.
The annual event raises money for the Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation for Cancer Research.
The foundation was set up by Grammy-nominated songwriter and philanthropist, Denise Rich in 1996 after her 27-year-old daughter Gabrielle lost her battle with acute myelogenous leukemia (AML).
Along with Gabrielle's sisters Daniella and Ilona, Denise has created in her memory, Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation for Cancer Research, that funds the best scientific investigators in the US with the hope that less toxic treatments, and ultimately a cure, might be discovered.
