Kris Jenner: Forcing 8 Months Pregnant Kim Kardashian to Keep Working?

Kris Jenner didn’t get to be the world’s most (in)famous momager by going easy on her kids/clients.

Obviously, her strategies have paid off financially, as in addition to being independently wealthy, the Kardashian sisters are now fighting over Kris’ $ 125 million fortune. 

But despite the fact that Kris’ daughters are often derided as entitled do-nothings, all that kash hasn’t come easy.

The Kardashian gals rarely get a day off, and even their vacations are documented by E! camera crews.

According to Radar Online, that 24/7 work schedule is beginning to cause problems, particularly with the very pregnant Kim Kardashian.

“Kim wants to take it easy at the end of her pregnancy,” says one insider. “She has been going non-stop the whole time and she wanted to cut back on her commitments but Kris just won’t let her.

“Kris wants to make sure that Kim is doing everything she can to stay in the public eye and get paid for appearances and increase her brand awareness.”

Yes, Kris is reportedly concerned that Kim doesn’t get enough media exposure. Apparently, no one has informed her that it’s impossible to use the Internet without seeing Kim Kardashian naked.

But it’s not just the nudity that Kris wants to cash in on. It seems that while Kim hates being pregnant, Kardashian fans love to watch her suffer – a fact that Kris is fully aware of:

“Kris knows that Kim is her cash cow, won’t let her slow down now. She is always aware of when the family’s brand is doing well, and Kim’s pregnancy is a prime time.”

“Kim doesn’t want to do anything to jeopardize the baby, and she wants to relax. But Kris just keeps reminding her that she has a responsibility to her whole family and she really never takes no for an answer.”

“She is going to make sure that Kim gets every dime she can from this pregnancy.”

So the next time you’re feeling jealous of Kim’s wealth or fame, remember that she has to have Kris Jenner as a mom for the rest of her luxurious life.

Teresa And Joe Giudice: We Get To Keep Our House!

The Fisher Price castle is theirs!

In addition to jail sentences for conspiracy to commit mail fraud, wire fraud, bank fraud, making false statements on loan applications, and bankruptcy fraud, Teresa and Joe Giudice had fallen behind on the mortgage payment for their obnoxiously large Montville, New Jersey home. 

The property went into foreclosure at one point, forcing the Giudices to put it on the market for $ 2.99 million.  They later reduced the price by $ 500,000 since no one showed any interest in 10,000 sq. foot Chateau New Money.

“The house is out of foreclosure, and the unpaid money owed has been paid in full,” a source told Radar Online.  “The mortgage is now current.”

Joe currently lives in the 6 bed, 6 bath home with the couple’s four daughters, Gia, Gabriella, Milania and Audriana.  Teresa’s release date is set for December 23rd, and Joe goes away in early 2016.

Joe also faces deportation since he is not an American citizen, despite having come here with his parents as a baby.

Oh, and his license has been suspended because he tried to pull a fast one on the DMV by using his brother’s information.

BUT THEY GET TO KEEP THE CASTLE WITH THE WATER FOUNTAIN!

“The loan hasn’t been paid off, but they are now in good standing with the loan,” the source added.  “A judge is expected to sign off on the agreement reached between the bank and the Giudices.”

Jim Bob Duggar: Buying Josh and Anna New House to Keep Marriage Intact?!

Josh Duggar is the epitome of a home wrecker. Jim Bob Duggar hopes to be the reverse, literally. He’s buying a home to help save Josh’s marriage!

According to reports, the former 19 Kids and Counting star purchased a fancy house that he’s going to gift his son, Josh, once he completes rehab.

The Duggar family patriarch threw down $ 345,000 – which is like $ 1.5 million in L.A. – on a beautiful brick home just around the corner from his compound.

It’s meant to be a present for Josh, who is currently in Christian labor camp slash sex addiction rehab, and his long-suffering put-upon wife Anna.

Obviously, Jim Bob is no fool – well, that’s debatable, but for purposes of this conversation – and knows Anna Duggar leaving Josh is a very real possibility.

Anna has reportedly put the couple’s home on the market and moved down to Florida, possibly for good, while Josh toils away in an Illinois sex camp.

Sex addiction labor camp, that is. Sex camp is probably what he thought he signed up for back when he threw Danica Dillon around like a rag doll.

ANYWAY, after former child molester Josh admitted to cheating on Anna using shady website Ashley Madison, the mother of four was left reeling.

Insiders say Anna has been in shambles since Josh was exposed, “sleeping in a closet” at her house before pulling up the stakes and heading south.

Is she gone for good? If so, would she consider coming home … to this home? A hopeful Jim Bob wants “to get her to abandon any idea of divorcing Josh.”

“Jim Bob has hinted to his daughter-in-law Anna that she could get the house,” a source said, adding, “offering Anna the home is just a ploy.”

“Nothing is set in stone concerning the new house yet but it’s clear the home is being dangled in front of Anna so she doesn’t pull the plug.”

Girl. Don’t fall for it.

Kylie Jenner Celebrates Instagram Milestone, Manages to Keep Clothing On

Kylie Jenner has a long way go to until she catches Taylor Swift.

The singing sensation recently became the first human being to surpass 50 million Instagram followers, a feat she celebrated by posing online with her cat.

But Jenner is now 80 percent of the way to this figure, sharing a new photo on her social media account in honor of her 40 millionth follower.

“40 million followers???!!!!!!!!!! Wow. That’s a whole lot of people,” Jenner wrote as a caption to the above image.

Then, in a bit of an ironic move, Kylie encouraged people to actually leave Instagram in order to see more pictures, writing:

“I put up an exclusive @sashasamsonova shoot in honor of my dope ass fans only on TheKylieJenner.com and on my app.”

Indeed: Kylie and her sisters have found a new way to make money on the World Wide Web.

They still share pictures and videos on Instagram, but they charge users for full access to their new websites and affiliated apps.

For awhile, Kylie was leading the way, surprising many by owning the most popular of these new creations kreations.

But sources now say Kim Kardashian is making a comeback komeback and her app is poised to known Kylie from her throne. 

Hence why Kylie is pushing her app on her Instagram page.

If only these women had any actual talent and actually did anything aside from posing for photos, we could stop playing this mind-numbing game of Internet carousel. Alas.

Zendaya Calls Out Magazine for Photoshop, Aims to Keep It Real

Zendaya Coleman is all about keeping it real.

The young actress, who has never been afraid to speak her mind, has taken issue with the latest issue of Modeliste.

The 19-year old jumped on Instagram early Wednesday to call out the publication for running an edited picture of her inside its cover this month.

“Had a new shoot come out today and was shocked when I found my 19 year old hips and torso quite manipulated,” Zendaya wrote, posting side-by-side comparisons of the two images.

The one on the right, above, is the original version; the one on the left has been Photoshopped.

“These are the things that make women self conscious, that create the unrealistic ideals of beauty that we have,” Zendaya added.

“Anyone who knows who I am knows I stand for honest and pure self love.”

The magazine actually replied to Zendaya’s criticism and removed the pictures, prompting Coleman to write in response:

“Thank you @modelistemagazine for pulling down the images and fixing this retouch issue.”

Zendaya, of course, found herself at the center of another fashion-related scandal back when she wore her hair in braids on the Academy Awards red carpet… and Giuliana Rancic took issue with the look.

Lamar Odom Begged Khloe Kardashian to Keep Him Off of KUWTK Just Weeks Before Collapse, Source Claims

As you’ve likely heard by now, Lamar Odom was found unconscious in a VIP suite at the Love Ranch brothel in Nevada on Tuesday night.

As more details have emerged, it’s become clear that Odom was profoundly distressed in the days leading up to his collapse, and many feel that his depression and anxiety were brought about in part by his continued unwanted fame.

Friends and workers at the Love Ranch have stated that they feel Odom’s relapse was triggered by watching Keeping Up With the Kardashians on Sunday night.

The 35-year-old NBA star has struggled with addiction issues throughout his life, but apparently after watching his estranged wife’s reality show, he became noticeably despondent and even more careless than usual with his drug abuse.

Now, sources tell Radar Online that part of the problem may have been that the Kardashian family refused to leave Odom out of their reality show drama. 

A source says Lamar recently “pleaded with Khloe to stop having the production crew from KUWTK film their phone conversations. He wanted them to remain private.

“But he was powerless to stop it because Lamar had previously signed off on having phone calls recorded when he was married to Khloe, and part of the show.

“Khloe would either ignore the texts and voice mail messages asking her to stop, or she would tell him, ‘You owe me this after you humiliated me by cheating with other women."”

The source says the combination of Khloe’s relationship with James Harden and her decision to continue featuring conversations with Odom on the show created a tremendous amount of stress for Lamar.

“Lamar had no idea that he was going to be Khloe’s storyline during the past season. She is always talking about how much she loves the guy, but has no problem exploiting Lamar for her gain. How low can Khloe go?

“The Kardashians all have Lamar’s blood on their hands. [They] demonized and exploited him for their stupid show.”

Clearly Lamar’s relationship with Khloe was just one of many factors that led to his current state, but the Kardashians and their popular series may both be the subjects of harsh criticism in the days to come.

Empire Season 2 Episode 3 Recap: You Can"t Keep Cookie Down

“You are the baddest b!tch ever, badder than the animals who currently populate your wardrobe.” – Anika, bowing down to the greatness that is Cookie

On Empire Season 2 Episode 3, Lucious may have gotten the last laugh at the end, but does anyone really think Cookie Lyon is down for the count?

Watch Empire Season 2 Episode 3 Online

If anything, she showed she’s even more formidable as an opponent and record company shot-caller. Where do we even begin with this woman?

Maybe with the fact that she walks into her son’s pad and declares, “Hakeem, get yo black a$ $ up! You know you gotta be on Sway in the morning!”

Or the fact that her potential girl group members are expected to do push-ups (real push-ups) in stilettos while berated about Beyonce’s work ethic.

No, no, let’s go with the scene at the dinner table.

The night Lucious got sprung from the slammer, he invited the family – 60 percent of which has deserted him for their own label – over for dinner.

His motivation? To “eat, drink and be merry, for tomorrow, we war.” That is … unless they “dismantle this little Lyon Dynasty and all will be forgiven.”

Cookie and Hakeem insisted they don’t need him, Lucious called the duo’s bluff, saying they can’t eat without him because all they have is pride.

Which he adds, tastes chewy and disgusting.

Then Cookie zinged him with this comeback:

“I’m always gonna eat … just not with you.”

Then she yanked the tablecloth out from under the dishes – slowly, but purposely – as she peaced out in a calm but deliberate display of EFF YOU.

Game on, then.

Lucious’ next move was to call in a favor from Anika to sabotage Lyon Dynasty, but given her propensity to meet with all parties, whose side is she on?!

Andre, meanwhile, is desperate to get back into his good graces, and pitches him on acquiring a radio company with access to every urban market.

When that didn’t work, Dre told him that Rhonda is pregnant (after he told Cookie, and which still feels like might be a red herring). Lucious’ reaction?

Fear, initially, given the flashbacks to his own bipolar mom, then bitterness, that his first-born son would actually try to use this to get what he wants.

Guilty as charged, Dre? Again, something tells us that baby inside her isn’t real and this is about to boil over into a truly epic plot twist or 10.

If you watch Empire online and see next week’s promo, he and Rhonda are caught in a thoroughly insane situation, for what that’s worth.

The music this week was awesome, even if Jamal performing on Leviticus catwalk without Hakeem (but with Pitbull) felt wrong somehow.

Speaking of ‘Keem, though, he was unreal, spitting mad game as he crashed the party with Timbaland (executive produces Empire music).

Shown up and publicly at that, Lucious took Dre’s advice, buying the radio company and signing Valentina out from under Cookie and ‘Keem.

Just moments before their radio debut, too. That was cold s–t, but not even Lucious Lyon can bat 1.000 when it comes to recruiting artists.

Earlier, Jamal failed to sign Freda Gatz, a young rapper Lucious covets for the Empire, then got jealous at just how much Lucious cares.

Lucious then approached her personally on the streets, but gunshots broke out during a rap battle, obviously, and she remains unsigned.

Finally, he came face-to-face with the prosecutor in his case, who informed him that his case is still open and she WILL take him down.

She boasted, curiously, that she had Vernon Turner stashed away where he couldn’t get at him. Hopefully no one asks Dre about that …

Kim Zolciak Wants to Keep Dancing with the Stars

Kim Zolciak would like to go Dancing with the Stars. Again.

The former Real Housewives of Atlanta cast member was eliminated from the ABC program this week for seemingly understandable health reasons:

Following her previous performance, Zolciak suffered a stroke and spent time in the hospital.

Unable to compete on Monday evening’s telecast, Kim was given the boot by host Tom Bergeron, who explained that a health issue or illness that barred a contestant from competing meant he or she had to withdraw.

The elimination reportedly came as a shock to Zolciak… and now she’s trying to do something about it.

Zolciak is circulating an online petition in the hopes that it can pressure ABC into allowing her to return.

“Sign this petition to bring @tonydovolani and me back,” Kim wrote on Instagram yesterday, including with it a link to said petition and adding:

I was cleared to dance on Friday when I was discharged from the hospital, so Saturday morning I was up rehearsing not even 12 hrs after. I had no restrictions BUT flying until today.

“Yes the timing sucked but ultimately my health is first. I wanted to dance here in ATL via satellite last night I can dance I just couldn’t fly.

“I’m forever grateful for my dance partner @tonydovolani who has always supported me and All Of you my amazing fans!!!!!!!!”

It took just one hour for the document to gather 10,000 signatures.

“I think the producers were fighting until the last minute to keep us in the competition,” Dovolani told Us Weekly after Monday’s show.

“I want to continue so bad it’s not even funny… The producers want us back, I want to be back, Kim wants to be back – so the only people they needed to convince was the lawyers.”

Do YOU want Kim Zolciak back on Dancing with the Stars?
