Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton Looked ‘Awkward’ and ‘Out of Their Comfort Zone’ During Appearance, Expert Says
Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton made a high-profile appearance together at Super Bowl LX.
The SKIMS founder and Formula 1 driver were seated in a VIP suite, smiling and chatting during the game. The videos and photos went viral on social media, along with announcements that the two were “hard-launching their relationship.”
However, a couple of experts noticed something off about their appearance that the rest of us did not.
Kardashian and Hamilton appeared ‘out of their comfort zone’
Darren Stanton is a body language and behavioral expert with a degree in psychology. He previously worked as a police officer and used his expertise to uncover the truth when interviewing hundreds of suspects. He later moved into media and TV as a consultant and has been dubbed the “Human Lie Detector.”
Speaking on behalf of OLBG, Stanton told Showbiz Cheat Sheet, “There is definitely something going on. She is like the cat who has got the grim, she is doing a thing called tongue protruding, which shows mischievousness and banter with Lewis. There is a shot where she lifts her chin up; this is a power gesture and a smugness. She is saying, ‘we are here, we are together, deal with it, she is making her point.
“Lewis is showing a genuine smile, and they are clearly having fun. It looks like the early stages of their relationship, but who knows how long it will last.”
The expert added, “They aren’t tactile, so that tells me that it is at the very start of something. They aren’t yet at a stage where they are happy to disclose everything, but they are aware there is speculation. They are finding their feet with how much they want to display publicly. They seem a little awkward to me. Although they are both successful, confident people, they look a little out of their comfort zone. They are finding their feet with how much they want to display publicly.
Another expert says there’s an ’emotional gap’ between them
Inbaal Honigman is a celebrity psychic and body language expert. She has appeared in the media for more than 20 years, offering her predictions and expertise for Big Brother’s Little Brother, Elle Magazine, and talkSPORT radio, to name a few.
Speaking on behalf of Casino.ca, Honigman told Showbiz Cheat Sheet, “Kim Kardashian and Lewis Hamilton stand side by side, clearly together, yet separated by a noticeable physical gap, suggesting an emotional one too. They aren’t touching, and even their eye contact is staggered: he looks towards her, and only once he looks away does she glance back. It suggests they’re not fully in sync yet, moving cautiously and keeping their distance, as though still a little shy around each other.
“Both are seen glancing downwards as they’re caught on camera. These behaviors signal awkwardness and nerves. Their chemistry feels unformed and tentative, more like two teenagers heading to prom than two of the world’s most desirable singles at the start of a new romance.”
Showbiz Cheat Sheet acknowledges that conditions and cultures can impact body language and is sensitive to all backgrounds.
