Kim Kardashian admits she "cried all the way home" after being compared to Mrs. Doubtfire at the Met Gala.
The reality star famously wore a floral-print gown to the 2013 ceremony while pregnant with daughter North, now 6.
And she admits the negative feedback left her down in the dumps.

She added: "I was very pregnant, very puffy and bloated and I was like, ‘Oh god, of course the first time I go I’m gonna be huge!
"Kanye [West] was performing so I wasn’t actually invited, I was just Kanye’s plus one. And that was okay with me because I never really dreamed I would be at the Met Ball.

"I know no one really probably wanted me there at the time."
Kim says she actually wanted to wear a black version of the dress, but Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci — who was also dressing West — persuaded her against it.
She said: "We chose a really stretchy fabric because I would be growing and we wanted to make sure that alterations were easy and it was comfortable.
