Kim Kardashian Eyes Fancy Cars, Fishes for a Push Present to Rival Kylie Jenner"s
It looks like those rumors that Kim Kardashian aims to take down Kylie Jenner aren’t going away any time soon. If anything, it looks like this sisterly competition is heating up.
So, remember how apparently Kylie Jenner got a $ 1.4 million Ferrari as a ridiculous “push present” after giving birth to Stormi Webster?
It looks like Kim is out to one-up her baby sister with a fancy, pricey new car of her own.
Kim Kardashian, for over a decade now, has been the Kardashian — she’s the face of the family and their brand.
(While Kris is the mastermind behind most of it)
On top of her success as a reality star and a branding icon, her video game for phones that came out a few years ago was a tremendous success.
But Kylie Jenner, at an astonishingly young age, is on the rise.
Kylie Cosmetics is worth a sicking amount, and is projected to be worth one billion dollars within just a few years.
Which of these successful sisters will win the race to a billion dollars?
We won’t know who wins the race to the top for years, most likely.
But Kylie sure is enjoying her status now.
Though it’s not clear where her brand new Ferrari actually came from, it’s believed to be a gift from baby daddy Travis Scott as a thank-you for, you know, giving birth to Stormi.
Push presents are normally sentimental jewelry or some sort of home redecoration thing. They’re not really supposed to cost a small fortune, but … Kylie and her family live on another level than the rest of us.
There’s one problem with Kylie’s $ 1.4 million push present … you can’t fit a carseat into it. Whoops.
But that’s not why Kylie’s family thinks that it’s ridiculous — they reportedly think that Kylie’s fondness for flaunting her wealth with expensive cars is tacky and childish.
Now that she’s a mom (at 20), they hope that she’ll mellow out.
At the same time, however, Kim seems to have her eye on the prize.
So long as the “prize” means outshining Kylie Jenner’s fancy new car with one of her own.
Over the course of several days, including just a matter of hours ago, Kim Kardashian has been pointing out super expensive, fancy, largely impractical cars on her Instagram.
She’s written things like:
“I want …”
and, days later
“I want this too …”
Does a taste for needlessly expensive vehicles that are jarringly low to the ground (but maybe they don’t care because they’re short anyway?) run in the family?
Or is this a competition?
Some fans were quick to comment, wondering why in the world Kim would be posting about wanting these particular items when, you know, she could just buy them.
But it’s easy to connect the dots.
If Kylie really got her car from Travis Scott as a push present, as is widely believed, then Kim buying herself one wouldn’t be a match for Kylie.
For Kim to match Kylie, she’d need it to be a push present from Kanye, her own baby daddy. And husband.
Of course, some would point out that Kim and Kylie are sisters, who likely have convergent tastes in many areas.
There’s so similar that they both had babies within a couple of months of each other. Chicago was Kim’s third and Stormi was Kylie’s first, and Chicago was born via surrogate, but those are just details.
So maybe they have similar tastes in cars because they’re similar people.
For that matter, maybe they’re both in the makeup business and both wildly successful because they have similarities in their personalities?
It can be fun to pit sibling against sibling, but we shouldn’t let that narrative cloud our perspective.
We don’t know what’s going on in their minds.

Kylie Jenner: There"s a Problem With Her Push Present Ferrari
As we’ve all heard, apparently the Kardashians think Travis Scott is ridiculous for gifting Kylie Jenner a $ 1.4 million Ferrari as a push present.
They also reportedly wish that Kylie would tone things down now that she’s a mother.
It turns out that Kylie has just one problem with her new car, however, that may cause fans to question Travis’ commitment as a father.
On the first of February, Kylie Jenner welcomed her baby girl, precious little Stormi Webster.
Kylie also shared extensive video of her pregnancy, taken during her months of social media silence and real life solitude as she attempted to conceal her pregnancy from the outside world.
Part of that video showed that Travis Scott is clearly no deadbeat dad as some fans — who’d seen him continue to tour during Kylie’s pregnancy — had feared.
He was there for his baby mama at appointments and ultrasounds and family gatherings, and clearly devoted to her — even kissing her baby bump.
And now it seems that Travis Scott has decided to spoil his baby mama with a very, very over-the-top push present.
I admittedly don’t know my cars and tend to identify them by color, but everyone says that the vehicle in this not-so-humble-brag photo that Kylie shared is a Ferrari.
In case you’ve forgotten, push presents are gifts that husbands or baby daddies or whoever buy as a reward for childbirth.
Because labor is pretty much the most agonizing thing that a human being is likely to experience. Doesn’t that deserve a reward? (A reward that doesn’t poop)
However, a source close to the family told People that Kylie’s Kardashian sisters thought that the gift, believed to have come from Travis, was excessive and gaudy.
“Everyone thinks it’s the most ridiculous ‘gift’ ever.”
But it probably fit with what Kylie wanted.
“[Kylie] has been obsessed with cars for a while. It’s just like a status thing. She gets a kick out of the fact that people will stare. She likes to show off her wealth”
Well, she is still very young. Hopefully, she’ll grow out of tacky habits.
Apparently her sisters hold that same hope — and want it to be sooner rather than later.
“Her family thinks she should tone down things a tad now when she is a mom. She is obviously still very immature when it comes to certain aspects of her life.”
Yeah. Clearly.
“But she is a great mom. She only leaves her baby girl for short outings.”
To be clear, we’re sure that they mean that she personally leaves her baby — she’s not abandoning Stormi to cry alone in a mansion. Kylie has a lot of family and the means to hire unlimited childcare.
There is, however, one problem with her comically expensive new car.
A source tells HollywoodLife that the car can’t accommodate Stormi Webster.
And Kylie has a problem with that.
“Her issue with the luxe new whip is that she can’t fit her baby car seat in it.”
Oh. Oh dear.
“She thinks it would be sexy to drive her baby around in style, but of course, safety first!”
That’s a good concern to have, though quite frankly the idea of driving a baby around in a Ferrari is kind of hilarious.
But some point to this and ask if Travis Scott is really prepared to be a father. If he bought a car for his baby mama and didn’t even check to see if it could safely accommodate his baby, is that a responsible choice?
That said … it may be that Kylie bought this for herself. Travis Scott might technically have enough money for a Ferrari, but Kylie could just buy one without a worry. She’s a makeup mogul.
If anyone doubts the enduring clout of her brand, just remember that Kylie tweeted and Snapchat lost $ 1.3 billion in less than a day.
If so, maybe Kylie and Travis will look into getting a nice, real car. Perhaps one that isn’t low to the ground (maybe Kylie doesn’t mind, since she’s short anyway?) and has plenty of room for a car seat and for diaper bags and everything else that parents need.
Assuming that Kylie is mature enough to be seen driving around in a mom car now that she’s a mom.

Prince Harry: Epic Birthday Present to Meghan Markle Revealed!
Being a prince is probably a lot like living in a constant New Year’s Eve.
There’s a lot of pressure to make everything you do epic and memorable, and whatnot.
Like, if a girl starts dating a clerk at GameStop, she probably doesn’t expect more than flowers and a card for her birthday, but if she’s dating Prince Harry, well … that’s a different story.
Meghan Markle turned 36 last week, and it seems Harry rose to the occasion in a big way, taking the Suits star on a safari in Botswana.
As Harry revealed in a recent interview, Africa is a place of tremendous emotional significance for him
“This is where I feel more like myself than anywhere else in the world,” Harry told Town & Country.
“I wish I could spend more time in Africa. I have this intense sense of complete relaxation and normality here.”
Harry even went so far as to call Botswana his “second home,” a comment that we imagine elicited eye-rolls and remarks of “bruh” all over the nation.
Anyway, it’s been almost a year since Harry and Meghan started dating and he took her to a place that holds major importance to him.
Naturally, the situation has prompted countless rumors that Harry is planning to propose to Meghan during their safari.
We suppose it’s possible.
Obviously, there’s been no official word yet, but the couple is still in Africa as of this writing.
Of course, it’s worth noting that Harry also took exes Chelsy Davy and Cressida Bonas to Botswana in the past, and they both returned decidedly ringless.
But hey, whatever happens, the Harry-Meghan engagement rumors will continue to fly, and the couple will return with a lifetime of fond memories.
Harry deserves a tip of the hat for delivering in such a big way on the first birthday he’s spent as Meghan’s boyfriend.
However, in a way, it was something of a rookie mistake.
If you go full African safari on your first birthday together, how do you top it next year?
Harry’s really rolling the dice on Elon Musk having moon tourism ready to go by then.
Now might be a good time to dispatch some royal assassins to “persuade” Musk to hurry things along.
It’s good to be the prince.

Kanye West to Kim Kardashian: Here"s Your Birthday Present!
Kanye West can be a massive douchebag, and that’s a fact, but sometimes he can be super sweet. And for Kim Kardashian’s 36th birthday, he was hella sweet.
Kim understandably wanted to take it easy on her special day, what with the trauma she’s dealing with after being robbed at gunpoint in Paris less than three weeks ago, and it looks like Kanye obliged.
There were no big Vegas nightclub appearances, no big parties the family Instagrammed the hell out of.
Just this incredibly lovely little video that Kanye put together from a bunch of old Kardashian family home movies.
Kanye did good, y’all.
The footage is mostly filmed by Robert Kardashian, Kim’s beloved late father — if you’ll remember, dads were all over documenting everything with those big, bulky camcorders in the 90s.
There are scenes of Kim playing with her siblings, scenes of Kim running a pretend restaurant for Robert and Kris Jenner, and scenes of Kim getting a puppy for Christmas.
In one bit, Robert tells Kim to “follow your honest beliefs and be strong,” and in another Kim’s grandmother gives a touching speech about how she’s grateful to have such a wonderful family, and “I hope that when I’m dead and gone, you’ll all be wonderful together.”
Kim is a little girl in some parts, an older teenager in others — there’s even one clip from when Kris gave birth to either Kendall or Kylie — and the video finishes with Kim filming her father as he tells her “I love you.”
And then Kanye adds his own “I love you” at the end.
Is someone cutting onions or hay or cats in here? We’re suddenly tearing up for some reason.
Kanye, of course, wasn’t the only one in the family to send Kim birthday wishes via social media.
On Instagram, Kourtney shared an old photo of Kim and wrote “Happy happy birthday sister! I feel beyond blessed to walk through my whole life with you by side, besides those first lonely 18 months. I love you beyond words.”
Khloe said “Happy birthday my Keeks! You’re truly one of the most amazing people I know! I’ve never known someone as special as you! I’m truly proud to be your sister and best friend! I love you Keeps, forever and a lifetime to come.”
Rob even managed to acknowledge Kim’s birthday, writing “I love you so much and you are so Blessed with 2 beautiful and healthy babies and got the best husband ever! Love seeing you Happy and hope you are having a great bday! I love you.”
Kendall went for the subtle route and shared a photo of Kim with a couple of heart emojis, and Kylie simply said “Happy Birthday Kimberly, I love you sister.”
But you know Kris Jenner went for it, as only moms can do.
In her first post, she wrote “I love and adore you … you have brought so much joy into all of our lives and you are the most wonderful daughter, wife, sister, friend and mom.”
“I thank God every day he blessed me with you and I cherish every single moment and memory. My heart is full of gratitude and I love you more than you will ever imagine or know.”
In her second, Kris posted an old video of her own, and told Kim “you are a slice of heaven, then and today, I cherish every day with you and I love and adore you!”
The Kardashian-Jenner family has always been a close one, and thank goodness for that. It looks like Kim has a lot of love and support, for her birthday and for all days.
We’re not crying. You’re crying.

Tyga Gifts Kylie Jenner with $189,000 Birthday Present
Quick, name a hit song by Tyga.
It’s not easy, is it?
We ask this question in order to ask another question:
How the heck is Tyga so gosh darn rich?!?
Last year around this time, the rapper presented Kylie Jenner with a Ferrari convertible that most car experts estimated to have cost approximately $ 3200,000.
You can see Kylie driving it in this video:
That was quite the generous gift from Tyga, but, hey, Kylie was turning 18 years old.
At least that marks a milestone occasion.
This year, however, Kylie is turning 19 years old on August 10. It’s a pretty random and pointless birthday; one year after the big 1-8, one year prior to hitting one’s 20s.
It’s not exactly cause for a major celebration.
But try telling that to Tyga.
On Saturday, the 26-year-old gave his girlfriend a Mercedes-Benz that cost, at minimum, $ 189,000.
At least now we know why Kylie keeps going back to Tyga, despite him seeming like sort of a douche.
On a video posted to Snapchat, Jenner films the black Maybach and gushes over her new vehicle.
“Happy early birthday to me,” she says, adding: “Yay! I love you, T.”
Jenner later added a picture of the interior, writing as captioned to it: “Almost too boss for me.”
Almost.
Tyga also purchased for Jenner an insanely expensive Rolex for her high school graduation on July of 2015.
There was actually talk soon after Tyga bought these items for Jenner that Tyga was broke.
We can’t believe that’s actually the case, although we do refer readers back to the opening of this article.
From where is Tyga getting all this money?!? Club appearance? Keeping Up with the Kardashians cameo?
The guy isn’t exactly shooting up the Billboard charts with any singles.
Last Wednesday, the rapper told Hollywood Today Live that he had a sort of hard time deciding what to give Jenner for her 19th birthday.
“She might be watching, so I can’t [say],” he said, when asked about his gift.
“It’s really just about what you feel. How do you get someone that has everything, you know?”
You could make them something unique and personal, like a ceramic coffee mug or something.
Either that… or you could blow six figures on a car Kylie may drive once or twice.

Girl with Prosthetic Leg Bawls Over Perfect Present
WARNING: The following video will make you cry.
But they will be tears of joy.
In a Facebook video that has been viewed over 11 million times, a young girl named Emma received the gift of her dreams.
Via footage shared by Courtney Fletcher Bennett, we see below that Emma opens up a present to reveal an American Girl doll.
But this is not just any American Girl doll.
The item has altered with the assistance of A Step Ahead Prosthetics. It now has a prosthetic leg … just like Emma!
Emma is seen reading a note in the video before gasping as she moves a piece of the gift box to spot the doll’s prosthetic limb.
“You’ve got to be kidding me,” Emma says prior to taking the doll out of the box and giving it a huge embrace.
A few moments later, we witness Emma crying tears of absolute joy as she holds her new doll up for the camera and says: “It’s got a leg like me.”
It"s okay. You can go ahead and cry yourself now. God knows we already have.
“After a few weeks of training, she is ready to go home and lead a life without limitations with you,” Emma’s mother reads from the letter.
Still bawling, Emma thanks the kind folks who made her doll.
“Thank you for making a doll like me,” she says as she holds the doll with both hands.

Kim Kardashian Pushes for $1 Million Push Present
Kim Kardashian has officially lost touch with the real world.
The 35-year old reality star, who really hates being pregnant, took to her official website late last week and said there’s one thing that would make this whole baby-creating thing worthwhile:
A really expensive piece of jewelry.
“Do you guys believe in a push present? I never did, but all of my friends do!!!” Kim wrote online.
“We have the funniest e-mail chains discussing it. One friend got a special diamond ring she always wanted, and another friend got a new car!”
A push present is gifted from a husband to his wife as a way of saying “hey, thanks for having our baby, honey!”
For the typical human, it may be a gift certificate to a salon or maybe a massage.
For Kim Kardashian and her circle of wealthy friends, it’s apparently a diamond ring or a car.
“I like the idea of a push present – after nine months of pregnancy it’s a sweet and well-deserved thank you,” Kim added.
“We women go through an entire pregnancy carrying a baby…of course it only makes sense that we get something amazing to show how amazing we are! LOL!”
So, what does Kim want from Kanye West as a token of his appreciation when she has the couple’s second son next month?
“This pregnancy, I would love a Lorraine Schwartz diamond choker, like the ones I’ve worn before to the Art + Film Gala. Too much? LOL!”
The bauble Kim has in mind costs approximately $ 1 million, according to sources.
No, that isn’t too much for Kanye West to afford.
But it is obnoxious for Kim to demand in public, no matter how many times she writes “LOL.”

Kendall Jenner Gushes Over "Best Birthday Present Ever"
Kendall Jenner is now in her third decade of life.
The reality star-turned-model-turned-ongoing-Instagram-poster turned 20 years old yesterday, receiving birthday wishes from a number of loved ones.
There was Kim Kardashian, who wrote the following to her half-sister:
Happy Birthday to my little Kenny!!!! Your not a teenager anymore! I love you so much and am so proud of everything you have accomplished and the person you have become!
There was Rob Kardashian, who is apparently still alive and who shared a cute brother-sister picture online, along with the message:
Kenny!!!!!!!!!!!! I LOVE UUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU.
But while Jenner was no doubt appreciative of all these shout-outs, she took to Instagram herself last night and said someone else sent her the “best birthday present ever.”
Victoria’s Secret!
The brand announced on Tuesday that Jenner (along with Gigi Hadid) will strut her scantily-clad stuff on its runway for the annual Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show, set to air on CBS on December 8.
And it’s safe to say Kendall – who has been training for this gig for months via non-stop lingerie and bikini photos – is excited for the opportunity.
The model celebrated the news by sharing a fan-drawn cartoon of herself (above) with Hadid as Victoria’s Secret’s latest recruits, along with the caption:
“the best birthday present EVER! always been one of my biggest dreams to be on this catwalk. victoriassecret’s newest recruits.
“oh and I get to do it with my best friend.”
E! News, meanwhile, reports that Kendall may have also received a $ 100,000 vintage Corvette for her birthday.
We guess that would qualify as her second favorite present.

Husband Shocks Wife with Ultimate Birthday Present
Some surprises that are caught on camera are not exactly welcome.
Like when you trick a morning show host into thinking he just got sprayed by a skunk.
But other surprises are so incredibly welcome that they help you go viral and ensure you are, at minimum, a finalist for THG"s made-up Husband of the Year Award.
In this video, for example, a man tells his wife that he got her a "staycation" for her birthday.
They"re gonna drop the kids off at a friends" house and then just spend some quality time together at home.
Except… they"re not. They"re actually on the way to the airport and you need to see the wife"s reaction upon being told of this surprise plan. It. Is. EPIC.
