Kim Kardashian West was planning to go all out for her 40th birthday party, but due to the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, her celebration has unfortunately been postponed.

In a new interview, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star opened up about turning the big 4-0 and the birthday extravaganza she had planned for her special day. Not only did she share her epic party theme, but the mom of four also revealed the over the top outfit she was going to wear for the occasion had the pandemic not interfered with her plans.

Kim Kardashian West planned to have a ‘Wild, Wild West’ party theme

On Oct. 21, Kardashian West will turn 40-years-old, and she had quite the shindig planned to celebrate this major milestone.

However, with many parts of the country still limiting social gatherings to 10 people or less due to the pandemic, the KKW Beauty mogul has to hold off on her birthday bash — even though she had already solidified her original party plans.

During a recent interview with Grazia magazine, Kardashian West opened up about the blowout birthday party theme she had come up with and the custom outfit she would wear for the occasion.

“It was going to be called Wild, Wild Miss West’s 40th Birthday. I had Manfred Thierry Mugler make me a metal costume. Like, a cowgirl costume,” she explained. “I have it and it is insane. We did virtual fittings.”

Since throwing a party during this uncertain time wouldn’t be safe, the reality star has decided to postpone her western-themed shindig until next year.

“I don’t even want to waste it on a party me for myself with five people. I want it to be something. So, I’m thinking maybe next year. I can have it on my 41st. We can still call it my 40th, right?”

Though she didn’t disclose how she’ll celebrate her 40th birthday this year, it’s likely the mother of four will have a small, intimate celebration with her family, instead of the star-studded bash she had originally planned.

How Kardashian West really feels about turning 40

In addition to talking about her birthday plans, Kardashian West also opened up about how she really feels about turning the big 4-0.

While many people are afraid of getting older, the reality star revealed to the outlet that she’s more than ready to get ushered into her fifth decade.

“I’m not one that gets nervous about getting older. I obviously do what I can to try and feel as youthful or to look a certain way. But I’m proud that my kids get me here another year,” she said, referring to her little ones: North, Saint, Chicago, and Psalm. “I always think about that. Particularly losing your dad or a parent or someone close to you at a young age.”

So even though she’s not ringing in this major milestone with an epic birthday extravaganza, it sounds like Kardashian West is still looking forward to her special day and finally leaving her thirties behind.
