It is no rest for the wicked and Kim Kardashian proved she does not let tiredness get in the way of her work commitments as she arrived in Hamburg on Tuesday afternoon just hours after her appearance at the Met Gala.
The businesswoman, 43, visited the German city to speak at the OMR digital and marketing trade fair as she swapped her glamorous waist cinching gown for something a little more comfortable.
Arriving on the stage, Kim showcased her curvaceous figure in a blue-grey body-con dress which she paired with some knee high leather boots.
According to German publication Bild, the US star’s appearance at the festival, which is described as an event for ‘information, inspiration and networking on all things digital business’, will cost more than €1,000,000.
Kim herself will receive a generous fee of €700,000 plus the expenses for her private jet and her entourage.

Kim was first approached to speak at the event after the founder Philipp Westermeyer approached her team during a trip to the US.
In an interview with Stern, the Head of Content at OMR, Roland Eisenbrand explained it was a month-long process to secure Kim as a guest.
He said: ‘Even though there was a lot of talk and Kim Kardashian of course receives a reasonable fee, it has to be said quite clearly that she would certainly not need to come to the OMR Festival from a purely financial point of view. Obviously, we have already convinced them with our concept.’
Kim appeared to speak about the success of her company SKIMS as well as how she built her own personal brand to continuously garner worldwide attention.
Gushing about the success of Kim’s empire, Roland added: ‘She had a mobile game with millions in sales. She has 364 million followers on Instagram. She has managed to generate reach and attention over the years, and she is very adept at monetizing them.
‘Her underwear brand Skims is now said to be worth four billion US dollars and is about to go public. All of this makes her very interesting to us, and we believe that anyone who works in marketing can learn something from Kim Kardashian.’
Proving she really can do it all, Kim landed in Hamburg landed in Hamburg at 3pm on Tuesday after walking the red carpet at around 7pm New York time on Monday night.
Germany is six hours ahead of New York making her two appearances just 13 hours apart. The flight time from New York to Hamburg is around nine hours.

The reality star wowed on the red carpet where she showed off her impossibly slim waist in the silver custom Maison Margiela by John Galliano number.
But she chose not to attend any raucous afterparties in the Big Apple and instead hopped straight on her private jet to head to Europe on a redeye.
She still looked immaculate as she arrived at the airport in Hamburg to her adoring fans and even took time to sign autographs after the long flight.
She wore a long black padded coat and striped jogging bottoms and donned dark shades.
Her blonde tresses still looked perfectly styled in loose waves over her shoulders.
On Monday night Kim sparked a shock reaction for her astonishingly tiny waist in a silver corset on the star-studded red carpet of the Met Gala 2024 in New York City.
The reality star – who is known for her curvaceous figure and bodacious behind – showcased a wild body transformation in custom Maison Margiela by John Galliano.
John Galliano, creative director of Maison Margiela, fashioned Kim – who attended his recent Artisanal show and sat in the front row – the stunning dress.
Just a day after Kim was booed at the Tom Brady Netflix Roast, many took to social media to react to the wild look as one wrote: ‘how many ribs did Kim get removed????’
Her tiny torso look featured a shiny metallic silver corset which flowed into a sheer lacy skirt which showed off her legs.
She teamed the strapless number with matching shiny silver platform heels.

One interesting fashion choice that the A-lister made was wrapping herself in a grey knit cropped sweater which felt a bit disjoined from the rest of the look.
Kim wore her newly-dyed platinum blonde locks down in a middle-part which showed off her dark roots, having once again teamed up with her longtime hairstylist Chris Appleton.
Her make-up was complementary to her face and topped off with a swipe of shiny nude lip.
However the thing that was most talked about on social media was her tiny waist.
One X (formally Twitter) user wrote: ‘Jesus, she’s gonna be in the hospital by the end of the night. Did they remove a rib or 2?!?!?’
Others fed into the rib removal theory as one said: ‘Did she have a rib removed? Good Lord.’
Another made referenced to the body transformations the SKIMS founder has undergone for previous Met Galas.
They wrote: ‘Kim Kardashian does it again, I wonder how she breathes with that #MetGala’
They seemed to be referencing one of Kim’s most iconic looks at the gala when she looked impossibly skinny to wear Marilyn Monroe’s classic dress in 2022.
Months later in an episode of The Kardashians which aired in November, she even called herself a ‘shapeshifter’ as she did all that she could to fit into the frock.
She tried on a replica of the dress Marilyn wore in 1962 to serenade then-President John F. Kennedy on his 45th birthday on the episode.
Kim said: ‘If this does not fit me, I can’t even try the original. So I’ve Googled her measurements, I’m looking at my measurements.’
She backed her shapeshifting claims as she said that the width of her shoulders would allow her to ‘squeeze into anything.’

She put on a busty display in the low-cut number as she left her hotel to head to the red carpet event
The mother-of-four said: ‘No one trusted us; for years, they would never send samples. And then once I would get to Paris and try on the samples, they would be like, “Oh, wait, she actually fits in our stuff.”
‘So I don’t know how to convince the guy who owns the original Marilyn dress that I’m a shapeshifter.’
Kim kept a low profile while returning to The Ritz-Carlton hotel after the event on Monday. A bodyguard held a white towel in front of the star as she attempted to shield her impossibly thin waist.
The Costume Institute’s spring exhibition falls on the first Monday in May every year and is held at New York City’s Metropolitan Museum of Art.
