There’s a time and place for everything and some people on social media need to learn that. Jokes and memes were the last thing on Chrissy Teigen and James Corden’s minds after news broke that Kim Kardashian was bound, gagged and robbed of nearly $10 million worth of possessions in Paris.
The pair quickly took to Twitter to support Kardashian after a slew of Twitter users made fun of the reality star being held at gunpoint by five men dressed as police officials.
The Late Late Show host wrote,”People making jokes about @KimKardashian tonight would do well to remember that she’s a mother, a daughter, a wife, a friend. Be nice or shut up.”

TV host and model Chrissy Teigen joined Corden by crafting a series of tweets, most aimed specifically at Twitter trolls. She wrote, “Some sh-t just isn’t funny. I see you trying, but it isn’t.”
Some shit just isn't funny. I see you trying, but it isn't.

Fame is interesting. Celebs are supposed to love you guys while also knowing you'd make a meme of our dead bodies to get retweets

I dunno. It's hard to explain because everyone thinks money and fame is pure awesome, so it just sounds whiny. I get it, trust me. Go off.

It is just a weird little world that I cannot expect anyone to get. I know it seems super awesome and laughable. I know.

Please do not think that I think celebrities are special snowflakes. I just miss empathy, in general, for everyone.

The traumatic robbery was the second instance of misfortune at the reality star’s expense during Paris Fashion Week. Days before the robbery, prankster Vitalii Sediuk attempted to literally kiss Kim’s butt.
Kardashian, who is reportedly “badly shaken but physically unharmed,” has yet to speak out regarding the incident.
