During the Nov. 2 New York premiere of All's Fair, Haley Baylee appeared to get a little starstruck when Kim Kardashian walked past.
In a clip posted Tuesday, Nov. 3, the social media star faces the camera as audio announces, "Kim Kardashian." She then glances over her shoulder, revealing the SKIMS founder making her way through the room.
Kardashian appears to notice Baylee out of the corner of her eye, offering a brief glance, a small smile and a soft “hi” before continuing on. Baylee turns back toward the camera, looking thrilled.
"Sorry for being so awkward but @Kim Kardashian is literally perfect!!!! I can’t wait for season 2 of @All’s Fair on Hulu," she captioned the clip.
It didn’t take long for viewers to start dissecting the reality star’s reaction.
"girl she just gave u a side eye," one person wrote.
"Kim was scared at first 💀," another teased.
"i'm crying you just stood there," a third chimed in, prompting the influencer to explain, "I PANICKED THATS THE KIM K."
Someone else was less forgiving, calling the glance a “dirty look.” Baylee shut that down fast. “Nooo she was sweet and just like wtf is happening hahahaha,” she replied.
The run-in took place at New York City's Crane Club, where Kardashian joined costars Sarah Paulson, Glenn Close, Naomi Watts and Niecy Nash-Betts to celebrate the second season of Ryan Murphy's Hulu legal drama. The series, which stars Kardashian as divorce attorney Allura Grant, returned Wednesday, Nov. 4.
As for Baylee, she’s had her share of fangirl moments on the red carpet. At the 2024 Golden Globes, the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit model gushed over Taylor Swift, declaring, "MOTHER IS MOTHERING." At the same ceremony, she and Billie Eilish traded "hot as balls" compliments in an exchange that made headlines.
Angelina Jolie, on the other hand, left Baylee a little flustered. In March 2025, the content creator told Us Weekly about meeting the actress and blurting out, “Angie, I just want to say I love you so much.” Jolie simply thanked her and walked away.
Her admiration for Kardashian isn't entirely new, either. When the mom of four dressed as her daughter North West in October, Baylee was among those praising the look, commenting, "Oh, this eats."
Kardashian, meanwhile, has another acting project on the horizon. She's starring in Eva Longoria's upcoming Netflix comedy The Fifth Wheel, which the director recently told People is in post-production and expected to premiere in spring 2027.
