Kim Kardashian stole the spotlight at the 2025 Fifteen Percent Pledge Gala at Paramount Studios in LA on Saturday night.
Even though she’s been going through a tough time, recently losing a childhood friend after a long health battle, the 44-year-old reality star was all smiles, looking stunning for the event celebrating Black designers and business owners.
Kim was effortlessly chic in a sleek black leather dress with mesh panels that added just the right touch of edge.
Before settling in, she chatted with Sami Miro, and then took her seat next to Kelly Rowland, who looked incredible in a yellow hooded gown.

She got candid about the important qualities she looks for in an admirer during an appearance on Erin and Sara Foster’s The World’s First Podcast.
‘My absolute red flag is just when someone doesn’t treat other people – even when no one’s watching – with respect and no matter what they are, who they do, what they do, who they are,’ the mother-of-four said.
‘You have to have chemistry and you have to vibe and you have to… I have a big life. I like a big life, you know.’
As for what she’s looking for in her next partner, Kanye West’s ex-wife said it’s crucial for them to have a ‘huge fight’ so she can see how they act during confrontation.
‘They’re going to have to understand my kids. And their background and where they came from,’ Kim said.
The SKIMS founder shares four kids with Kanye – North, 11, Saint, nine, Chicago, seven, and Psalm, five.
‘It must not be easy coming into my life. They have to be a very secure person. I want our morals and values to really align,’ she went on.
‘And I want… it’s very important, this is something that I learned is that you have to be with someone long enough to have like a real big huge fight and to see how they act when they don’t get what they want, and to see how someone acts and treats you when they don’t get what they want shows a lot about a person and I know that seems really simple.’

The KUWTK alum continued: ‘I mean, I can obviously want the motivated person.
‘Just a person that… there’s so many things that I want in someone that I realized like you can’t have it all. But you can’t have it all like, f**k that.’
Kim, who parted ways from NFL star Odell Beckham Jr last year, teased that she was dating someone new in the trailer for series six of The Kardashians, which premieres on February 6.
‘I had the intention of staying single. I was fully lying to you guys,’ she confessed with a playful smirk in a confessional.
‘Me not dating and not wanting love and attention? I don’t think you know me.’
In a separate scene, Kim blushed when she casually mentioned: ‘I have a dinner with someone.’
Kim also shared her plans about building a ‘his closet’ in her Beverly Hills mansion to her mother Kris Jenner.
Kris quipped, ‘You must really like him,’ to which Kim responded with a sly grin: ‘He’ll be happy.’
It comes after reports that Kim ‘has started dating someone new’ and is ‘keeping it very under wraps’.

Kim is no stranger to a high profile romance as her dating history includes Odell, Pete Davidson, and a marriage to Kanye.
‘She’s said the next person she dates will be someone who isn’t famous,’ a source told Us Weekly.
It has been said that since her most recent split, her main focus was not on dating but on her mogul and acting careers along with parenting.
In March it was revealed that Kim and Odell had split – a year after they were romantically linked.
The TV personality began dating the American football player, 32 – currently playing for the Miami Dolphins – last spring.
But the couple have not been seen together since March 10 and a joint appearance at the the Vanity Fair Oscars viewing party in Los Angeles.
