Kim Kardashian’s dress CAUGHT FIRE last night – and PHARRELL WILLIAMS had to put it out!

Kim Kardashian is one of the hottest women on this human planet, it’s true – but no-one was expecting her to literally self-combust at last night’s CFDA Awards.

But that’s exactly what happened after the show, which was held in New York – as Kim’s just tweeted that her dress CAUGHT ON ACTUAL FIRE.

More news!

Luckily, Pharrell Williams and his wife Helen – who were inexplicably dressed as a kind of steam train driving team, complete with a train clutch bag (Helen) and a peaked driver’s cap (Pharrell) – were on hand to put her out.

She tweeted:

Now, listen: we don’t want to be all bitchy about this, but clearly Kim’s pregnancy news was very much overshadowed by her stepdad’s amazing reveal as Caitlyn Jenner yesterday… is there any way she’s just trying to steal back some of that thunder?

Look what she tweeted just afterwards:

Yeah, we get it Kim. You’re pregnant. And a bit on fire. Why don’t you put your feet up and have a ginger biscuit, yeah?
