Kim Kardashian Shades Taylor Swift, Blac Chyna & The Rest of Her Enemies List
On the surface, it may not seem like Kim Kardashian and Richard Nixon have a whole lot in common, but dig a little deeper, and you’ll realize they’re more similar than they appear.
Both will be forever associated with scandalous tapes; both have complicated relationships with their mothers; and both understand the importance of a comprehensive enemies list.
Us peasant people might have one or two enemies – perhaps one Starbucks barista who always spells your name wrong, and another who always glares at you for walking across his freshly mopped floor – but the rich and powerful often have more foes than they can easily keep track of.
And that’s where the value of a well-organized enemies list comes into play.
Kim recently became a mother of three, and she says she’s in the best shape of her life these days.
She’s leveling up in every way possible for 2018, and apparently, that includes taking her pettiness to new heights.
And what does that mean for her carefully-cultivated catalog of adversaries?
Why, it means they get roasted with blue Valentines, of course.
Kim has a new fragrance out, and she’s promoting it by delivering samples encased in chocolate hearts to some of her celebrity associates … even the ones she doesn’t like.
Mrs. Kardashian-West posted a Snapchat video detailing her plan, and as you can, see the recipients in blue comprise a special class:
“I’m going to send them to my lovers, to my haters, to everyone that I think of, because it’s Valentine’s Day, after all,” Kim said in the clip.
So it looks like we now have the definitive list of Kim’s haters:
There’s Piers Morgan, Sharon Osbourne, Bette Midler, and Chloe Grace Moretz – who have all called out Kim’s nudes over the years.
There’s Blac Chyna and Taylor Swift (no big surprises there).
There’s Naya Rivera, Wendy Williams, and Pink, all of whom have mom-shamed Kim at one point or another (or at least they have in Kim’s eyes).
And there are some surprises in the mix, as well.
(Since when do Kim and Sarah Michelle Gellar have beef?)!
In all fairness, this might be Kim’s way of extending an olive branch – but we prefer to think of it as gloriously subtle shade.
Yes, the first non-Tide Pod-related trend of 2018 is officially here, so send a blue Valentine to your haters today!
Kim Kardashian West Sends Valentines to Taylor Swift, Blac Chyna and Other Enemies
Kim Kardashian is making sure both her lovers and her haters will get a Valentine this year … and that list includes Taylor Swift, Blac Chyna and Wendy Williams. Kim’s been on a promo whirlwind for her new Valentine’s Day-inspired fragrance,…

Michael Strahan: Making Enemies at Good Morning America?
When Michael Strahan broke the single-season sack record in 2002, most observers believed he was given preferential treatment by Brett Favre.
The quarterback, a close friend of the defensive lineman’s, very clearly ran right at Strahan and then basically fell down in order to ensure Strahan recorded sack number 22.5.
But that’s nothing compared to the preferential treatment sources claim Strahan is receiving from producers at Good Morning America.
“They roll out the carpet for him, while seasoned talent is treated like dirt,” a source tells Page Six of The New York Post of Strahan, adding:
“He’s been given a lot of opportunity [and] flexibility, when the others who have been working there longer don’t get that kind of treatment.”
Interesting, huh?
Strahan, of course, bolted for GMA under somewhat controversial circumstances.
About a year ago, ABC announced that Strahan would leave Live with Kelly and Michael for a new, permanent role on its flagship morning program.
But Kelly Ripa only learned about this departure at the last second, causing her to react with anger… causing major tension between the co-hosts for the duration of Strahan’s role on Live… and then causing him to depart the program four months earlier than originally planned.
He debuted on GMA in September and was welcomed with open arms at the time by Robin Roberts and George Stephanopoulos.
That was then, however.
Now?
Strahan signed a unique deal that allows him to continue to analyze football at Fox during the NFL season and also host ABC’s “$ 100,000 Pyramid.”
Such an arrangement has alienated Strahan from his GMA colleagues, as has his alleged behavior on set.
Lara Spencer “feels like her role has been minimized with Strahan,” Page Six writes, with the insider explaining:
There’s not a lot of love between the two. They know how to put it on for the cameras, but he’s doing a lot of what Lara should be doing [on the show] and she’s not happy. She’s the pop person.”
Stephanopoulos has also had it with Strahan.
“He’s bored with the fluff,” the newspaper claims of Stephanopoulos, a former political operative who doesn’t like the direction Strahan has taken the show in.
“He goes into work, does the show and leaves by 8:57 a.m. He doesn’t interact. He’s been phoning it in for quite some time.”
However, an ABC News executive was given a chance to respond and disputed a lot of this account.
First, regarding Strahan and Spencer, he or she says the following:
“That’s just bullsh-t. They get along great. She loves having someone with his sense of humor on the show. Michael is lovely with the staff.
As for the assertion that Stephanopoulos isn’t giving it his all at work?
“The idea that George is phoning it in is absurd,” this same source says, adding:
He gets to GMA at, like, 3 in the morning. He works 16 hours a day. He goes home because he does all of the special reports in addition to GMA, and he’s calling sources and getting ready for his Sunday show.
“He comes back to the office in the afternoon . . . And he’s incredibly engaged in the news coming out of DC right now.”
As for any perceived struggles at the show?
This executive looks to the only barometer of success and scoffs at any notion of trouble.
“We’ve tripled our lead over the Today show [in total viewers]. The show has never been better.”

The Vampire Diaries Season 7 Promo: New Enemies, New Stakes
The CW has released the first promo for The Vampire Diaries Season 7.
And this 60-second trailer makes one thing abundantly clear: things in Mystic Falls will never be the same.
We see Lily and her family of Heretics taking over Mystic Falls, apparently having struck some kind of deal with the residents there.
But Damon isn"t a fan of the deal, and it becomes rather clear why when the bodies pile up and when Lily offers Stefan one word of motherly advice: RUN!
Elsewhere, Stefan is definitely making out with Caroline; one character is learning how to make a bomb; and there are fires, explosions and threats galore.
Look for new enemies and new stakes to emerge when The Vampire Diaries Season 7 Episode 1 airs on Thursday, October 8.
