Meeting the star you admire is one of the best feelings in the world for any fan. There are many reactions to this case, with some cheering with joy while others even get emotional. Interestingly, in yet another unimaginable instance, Kim Kardashian got to meet Manchester City star, Erling Haaland. However, it wasn’t the usual surprising reaction, rather, she freaked out. Back in July, Kardashian flew to Milan for a fashion event.
That’s where she bumped into Haaland. While speaking to GQ Sport, she revealed, “I was in Italy and I see Erling Haaland and I freaked the f*** out because I know my son would be so excited. You know, it’s like his thing. So I’m like such a loser FaceTiming at this event being like, ‘Saint, you’ll never guess who I ran into!’”
Indeed, it was quite an unexpected and unique reaction from Kardashian. It’s sad that her son, Saint, wasn’t there to witness the Norwegian powerhouse. Then the City star would have been yet another name on the list of other soccer stars the youngster met. Notably, Saint has already met with Dele Ali and Bukayo Saka. He also recently met Lionel Messi during his Inter Miami debut.
