Despite Kanye West's meltdown and hospitalization yesterday, Kris Jenner, accompanied by Corey Gamble, Khloe Kardashian and Kourtney Kardashian put on their best gear to attend the 20th Annual Angel Ball, a cancer research fundraiser 20th-annual Angel Ball, an event which raises money for Gabrielle’s Angel Foundation and where the late Robert Kardashian was to be honored at the event held at Cipriani in NYC.

We get that the fam wanted to stay to honor Robert Sr., but we aren't really sure they needed to do the red carpet amid Kanye's breakdown.

During her red-carpet walk, Kris told Extra: "He's exhausted he's just really tired. He's had a grueling tour and it's been a grind so he just needs some rest."

Yeah some rest and some serious mental help! That dude's lost it!

Kris also spoke about how daughter Kim Kardashian has been doing since her Paris attack: "She's [taking things] one step at a time ... It’s a process."

Kim had been scheduled to make her first red-carpet debut since October -- but rushed home via private jet from New York to be by her hubby's side after his hospitalization for a psychiatric emergency. Oh man, Kanye ruins EVERYTHING!

On Monday, Kim took off from LA around 5am, landed in New York at noon local time; she heard about Kanye's hospitalization at 5pm ET, then jumped back on the plane at 8pm New York time, and touched down in LA at 10:30pm PT.
