Kanye West Spends $7.6 million to Beef Up Security for Kim Kardashian After Paris Incident

The famous singer, Kanye West spends $7.6 million to tighten security around his family after the Paris robbery incident. It even consists of the reality star Kim Kardashian’s look alike on round the clock duty to keep her whereabouts secret.

He recruited the same online security team which guided the White House of deflecting social media posts that may leak locations of their principals.

West took drastic measures to secure his wife and family after the Paris Heist. Kim, 35 was gagged, bound and thrown in a bathtub where she was held at gunpoint.

The robbery happened in a luxury residence in Paris 3 am on Monday. The suspects took her jewelry including her engagement ring amounting to $10 million. They escaped using hired bikes and still at large. The reality star was “badly shaken but physically unharmed” according to a source.

The perpetrators, allegedly monitored Kim’s movements for three days prior to the robbery. One of the suspects disguised himself as a police officer and the other as a photographer, both sporting French accents.

“We will find you. You messed with the wrong one.” Kim’s bodyguard, Pascal Duvier warned the suspects. He added, “The events in Paris was one of the most sickening things I have seen or heard. We have tips and leads and we will find you – that I promise you. You messed with the wrong one.”

Fortunately, their children, Saint, 10 months old and North, three years old was not in the room with her.

A source said “Kanye’s never been lax about security, he takes the safety of his wife very seriously.

The source also explained, “The whole family are under round-the-clock protection. He even lent Kim’s mum Kris his own personal security when she sacked hers after an intruder broke into her house while Kim was there”.

A few year back, Kanye hired a decoy for their son North for situations he needed distraction from the press. According to the source, Kanye wants them full-time and on payroll.

On Sunday night Kanye abruptly left his concert after learning about the Paris incidence while Kim flew back home on a private plane. Kanye has since postponed two other tour concerts.

Beefed up security

The upgraded security measures became noticeable on Monday. 20 hired bodyguards and police escort the couple to their penthouse apartment.

Their substantially improved security improvements include installing cameras in every room, even the closets. The couple can view the footage remotely 24/7.

The celebrity couple purchased “bullet-proof, bomb-proof” armored vehicles with matching anti-assault technology amounting to $1.2million. They are now thinking of installing the same capabilities around their $20 million home in Hidden Hills, California.

The famous singer is now reviewing their social media usage. Because Kim posted a Snapchat post from her apartment two hours before the robbery wearing her 20 carat engagement ring worth $4.5million. Kanye turned to the same security agency employed by the US President to at least delay posts and stop locations from being traced.

Kim’s half-sister, Kylie Jenner received warnings from the police about using social media sites secretly utilizing geo-filter application settings.

Meanwhile, on the Paris heist investigation, the luxury apartment where Kim stayed only had one security guard and not a single CCTV camera. Charles Pellegrini, the ex-head of France’s anti-organized crime squad, slammed the security saying, “I’m personally amazed at how her security was handled”.
