Kim Kardashian Promotes Perfume in Wake of Mass Shooting, Hears All About It

Kim Kardashian stands accused of caring more about her brand and her bank account than about the lives of 12 dead people in California.

This is a very harsh asssessment, but it’s one shared by a number of Kim’s Twitter followers right now.

The reality star has garnered quite a bit of backlash for what some perceive as an incredibly tone deaf Tweet on Thursday morning.

It reads as follows:

So excited! @KKWFRAGRANCE is coming to @ultabeauty this holiday season! My fragrances launch in all stores across the country on Sunday 11/25!

And then another almost immediately proceeded it:

Get ready! #KKWFRAGRANCE is coming to all @ultabeauty stores on Sunday 11.25! #KKWFragranceUltaBeauty.

On the surface, this is exactly what any follower of Kardashian would expect: a promotion of her makeup, beauty or perfume collection.

But the self-serving messages came just hours after the world learned of another mass shooting, as a dozen people were gunned down in a bar in Thousand Oaks around 11:20 p.m. on Wednesday.

As you might expect, many social media users responded to Kim’s fragrance shilling by asking what the heck the mother of three was thinking by sending them in light of this tragedy.

Here’s a look at some of the most pointed responded to Kardashian’s Tweets:

12 people are dead this morning Kim…and it happened a city over from your home. Get it together.

I would be much more interested with the developing facts behind a mass murder in Thousand Oaks, CA, that went down late last night Kim! But you really blew this one big time! Massively! Kris Jenner needs have a heart to heart with you!

Mass shooting right in ur state & as ALWAYS none of ur fam say shhh, WHY would any of you? U all have armed guards 24/7 on you, F the rest of us right? Don’t preach to me on gun control HYPOCRITE, MAKE UR MONEY #ThousandOaks

You are aware that there was a mass shooting one town over, right?

The thing is, Kim was likely unaware of this horrific massacre at the time the Tweets went live.

Based on the similarity of the messages, as well as how they were posted back-to-back, they were almost definitely scheduled to go up when they did, at some point before the aforecited bar patrons were killed.

And Kardashian has actually been a vocal proponent of gun control in the past.

In February, following a mass shooting in Florida, Kim earned our praise for responding as follows online:

“We owe it to our children and our teachers to keep them safe while at school. Prayers won’t do this: action will. Congress, please do your job and protect Americans from senseless gun violence.”

So this is one important topic on which the star has been admirably vocal.

Still, the unfortunate timing of Kim’s Tweets here coincide with Kardashian having to recently apologize for using the R-Word in video.

She may be best served by explaining the situation and issuing a statement about the shooting and gun control in general, simply to avoid another scandal.

Not that what folks think about Kim Kardashian is remotely the point right now.

What politicians think about the state of our country and the role guns play in it is infinitely more pressing.

Counting On Promotes New Season Without Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard, Fans Flip Out!

Great news for fans of Counting On: it’s less than a month now until the new season premieres!

We’ve got some bad news for fans of Jill Duggar and Derick Dillard though …

Back in November, we learned that Derick had been fired from the show after repeatedly making offensive remarks about Jazz Jennings, the star of another show on TLC.

Jazz is also a child, by the way.

His comments had to do with the fact that Jazz is transgender, which he considers to be “a myth.”

“Gender is not fluid,” he tweeted at one point. “It’s ordained by God.”

When he got some backlash for that comment, he dug his hole a little deeper, tweeting “I want to be clear. I have nothing against him. I only have issue with the words and definitions being propagated here.”

Except he referred to Jazz as a “him,” not a “her,” which is disrespectful and hurtful and there’s no way he didn’t know that.

He made those comments in August, and in the following months, he continued to make ignorant statements about Jazz and the transgender community as a whole.

Then, in November, he tweeted “I pity Jazz, 4 those who take advantage of him in order 2 promote their agenda, including the parents who allow these kinds of decisions 2 be made by a child.”

“It’s sad that ppl would use a juvenile this way. Again, nothing against him, just unfortunate what’s on tv these days.”

He was right about one thing: it is unfortunate what’s on TV these days.

Thankfully, TLC helped solve a bit of this problem by firing Derick soon after those statements.

Since then, he’s claimed that he wasn’t actually fired, that he just decided that it would be best if he and his family began “heading in a different direction.”

*Insert “Sure, Jan” gif here*

We have our doubts about that, but it’s clear that whatever happened, Derick and Jill really won’t be appearing on Counting On anymore.

The Duggar family’s Facebook page just shared a promotional image from the upcoming season of the show, and we see Jessa, Joy-Anna, and Jinger cozying up to their husbands.

Where are Jill and Derick?

Trying to think up a way to make a GoFundMe page without getting heaps of backlash for begging fans for money, we guess — whatever it is, it certainly doesn’t look like they’re filming a reality show anymore.

It’s nice to see that the Dillards are gone, and that while TLC hesitates to let the Duggar family go completely, they still won’t tolerate the kind of nonsense that Derick spews.

But as it turns out, many, many fans of this family disagree with that — and they took to the Facebook post to address this.

“Utterly ridiculous that TLC removed Jill & Derick everyone is entitled to free speech we may not agree but still no reason to remove them from the show!!” one person wrote.

That’s not how freedom of speech works, but OK, sure.

“I wasn’t aware that bullying was defined by disagreeing,” someone else commented. “Such a double standard with anything that is conservative. Such a sad thing. Freedom of speech only applies if your not conservative.”

… Seriously, do they not teach this stuff in school anymore?

Considering that another person wrote “I think everyone should have freedom of speech and Derick could say what he wants to say and that is freedom of speech…”, we’d wager that they don’t.

Yet another Dillard fan complained that “You can believe multiple spouses are fine and get a show on TLC. You can believe it is fine for a boy to live as a girl and have a show on TLC.”

“You CANNOT voice your deeply held beliefs based on Biblical principles and remain on a show on TLC.”

Another wrote “It is a shame how it is ok to bully anyone Duggar but they can’t have an opinion or a voice. I think the Dillards are awesome and will keep up with them on their social media accounts.”

None of these people see an issue with what Derick said? They all think it’s cool that he went after a 16-year-old girl, and they don’t understand why TLC may have had an issue with that?

It’s a scary, scary world out there.

Paris Jackson Promotes Body Positivity with Topless Pic!

Contrary to what certain lyrics or very bitter bloggers might tell you, body-positivity isn’t exclusive to those who qualify as plus sized. People of all shapes and sizes can have insecurities.

Even gorgeous actresses who are also celebrities. Like, say, Paris Jackson.

And while Paris Jackson’s gone topless before, this time she’s doing it to discuss body image and being comfortable with your “flaws.”

Paris Jackson is many things.

She’s a celebrity, being Michael Jackson’s daughter.

She’s a deeply spiritual person, as her social media posts make abundantly clear.

She’s also an actress — her first feature film, Gringo, comes out in 2018!

She’s also a model and absolutely has the body type that you’d expect from that profession.

But just because someone is comfortable enough with their body to hang out topless in the deserts of the American southwest or share otherwise innocuous photos of themselves with their followers that don’t happen to feature a shirt … well, they can still be critical of their bodies.

Paris Jackson hinted at just that with this photo and the accompanying caption:

You might look at this and go: “Wow; she’s beautiful! … What flaw are we supposed to be seeing?”

For that, you need to look to her very assertive caption:

“comfortable in my rolls. f–k wit me.”

Now, any “rolls” that Paris might have would be hidden by her underwear, which appears to be the only article of clothing that she’s wearing.

And it’s pulled up conspicuously in a way that would hide any “rolls.”

But we should all remember that, just as people’s tummies look flatter when a person is laying flat on their back or tightening their abs, just about anyone is going to get some “rolls” when they lean forward while sitting.

Or even just while they sit.

Yes, even super skinny models. It’s part of having a human body.

Even though Paris Jackson is hiding this “flaw,” her bold caption and her willingness to discuss the subject are important.

Remember, many of her fans and followers are teenage girls who are a few years younger than she is. There is no time more full of insecurities for young women than adolescence.

Acknowledging that even she has skin rolls on her tummy when she’s sitting is important to help young women realize that their bodies are totally normal.

Plus size girls have role models, and that’s fantastic. But slender girls — and there are many of them — need to see realistic depictions of women with bodies like theirs.

Just as Paris Jackson flaunts her leg hair as a reminder that shaving isn’t mandatory and that hair is hair, she talks about her tummy and gives people realistic impressions of the human body.

Though nudity is just more comfortable than wearing clothing, Paris often has a purpose to her nudity.

Sometimes, she goes topless to show off a new tattoo and has to go to creative lengths to censor a photo enough to make it appropriate for Instagram.

Other times, well, it’s pretty clear that she was just cuddling with her dog while topless and decided to snap a carefully angled selfie.

But you know what? Paris is living her best life and using her platform to promote body positivity.

She really is such a treasure.

Ray J Promotes Kim Kardashian Sex Tape: Go Pleasure Yourself To It!

Give Ray J credit: The guy is under no illusions.

He’s well aware of why he’s famous.

Does he rap? Sometimes. Does he appear on random reality shows? Absolutely.

But why is he remotely relevant? Why does he qualify for D-List status?

Because he once put his penis inside of Kim Kardashian while a video camera rolled and that footage was then released to a salivating public.

Just go ahead and ask Ray J yourself. He gleefully admit this is basically why he’s stuck around in the pop culture universe for so long.

Heck, he just made this admission on Tuesday, during an episode of Celebrity Big Brother UK.

“You might know me for a lot of things – music, reality TV, oh, and you might also know me for my dick,” Ray J hilariously told the camera.

Yes, the dick he inserted into Kim’s vagina back when the two dated in 2003.

The Kim Kardashian sex tape (titled Kim Kardashian Superstar) did not come out until 2007, shortly prior to the premiere of Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

What crazy timing, huh?!?

It’s almost as though Kim and Kris Jenner planned it that way.

To this day, people still purchase the tape, with recent reports claiming Ray J banked thousands of dollars per month in royalties from it.

“People wanna know about the sex tape with me and Kim Kardashian,” he added on Big Brother this week, taking advantage of the opportunity to promote it some more:

“Order it, put some money in my pocket … Y’all still j-rking off to the sex tape? Enjoy!”

HA!

Who out there does not adore Ray J?

Moments after making these comments, Ray J entered the Celebrity Big Bother house for the first time… to his 2013 track “I Hit It First.”

That single, of course, served as a taunt to Kanye West back when it went viral, as Ray J made it clear to the world that… well… he hit it first.

(The “it” in this case is… nevermind. You can figure it out for yourself.)

Of course, not everyone was as entertained by Ray J’s references and antics as we clearly are.

Semi-famous close Kim friend Jonathan Cheban jumped on Twitter and called Ray J a “loser” shortly after this episode aired:

We somehow doubt this insult affected Ray J very much.

Not when he continues to literally laugh all the way to the bank on a monthly basis simply because he porked Kardashian in front of a camera.

Kim continues to bring up the sex tape, even while alleging that she played no role in its release and claiming she is sick of people talking about it.

In March of 2016, the reality star opened up in a blog post about how the stigma from her sex tape has followed her for more than a decade.

“It always seems to come back around to my sex tape,” Kim wrote back then, adding:

“Yes, a sex tape that was made 13 years ago. 13 YEARS AGO. Literally that lonnng ago. And people still want to talk about it?!?!

“I lived through the embarrassment and fear, and decided to say who cares, do better, move on. I shouldn’t have to constantly be on the defense, listing off my accomplishments just to prove that I am more than something that happened 13 years ago. …

“Let’s move on, already. I have.”

Yes, Kardashian has moved on to such an extent that she still feels a need to remind people about the sex tape.

Talk about someone who is laughing all the way to the bank!

Kylie Jenner Promotes Swimwear Line With Crazy Cleavage! Where Did THOSE Come From?!

We’re gonna need you to stop working, reading election coverage, trying to figure out who “Becky With the Good Hair” is, or whatever else it is you’re wasting your time with, because we have some urgent, breaking news that’s sure to rock your world:

Kylie Jenner is in a bikini on Instagram.

But not just any bikini, mind you.

No, Kylie is rocking her an item from the swimwear line that she designed (Read: paid someone to design) along with her sister Kendall.

Did Kendall and Kylie spend any long nights arguing over designs with pencils stuck behind their ears to get these suits to Top Shop on time?

Hell, no. But their names all over the waistband and the girls are willing to rock the suits on Instagram, so the stores will be able to charge five times what they normally would.

And in the end, isn’t that all that matters?

Speaking of things that were purchased at hefty price, is it just us, or are Kylie’s boobs looking bigger than ever these days?

Kylie has repeatedly claimed that her temporary lip fillers are the full extent of her cosmetic work, but we’re just not buying it.

It’s one thing for half-sisters to bear some resemblance to one another but Kylie has completely transformed into Kim Kardashian over the past couple years, and we’re not buying her explanation that it’s all because of puberty.

Don’t get us wrong, she obviously shelled out for top-quality work, but that is a girl who’s been under the knife on more than one occasion.

The problem isn’t that she’s had a lot of work, done it’s that she claims she hasn’t, which sets an unrealistic beauty standard for her young fans, many of whom…

Eh, forget it. We’ve had this conversation a million times.

Let’s just all marvel at the prefect tautness of Kylie’s abs.

Caitlyn Jenner Flaunts Cleavage, Promotes New Lipstick

Pssst! Caitlyn Jenner’s eyes are up here, people!

And so are her lips.

The transgender reality star has released the first promotional poster for her very own line up lipstick, although it would be understandable if some folks were more focused on Jenner’s chest than her mouth in the above image.

Because there’s some serious flaunting of some major cleavage going on!

Step-daughter Kim Kardashian must be very proud.

“Finally Free Lipstick is here!” Caitlyn wrote as a caption, mentioning the name of her collaboration with MAC Cosmetics and adding

“@maccosmetics 100% of sales go to Trans programs link to purchase is in my bio #maccaitlynjenner #finallyfree #transisbeautiful.”

It’s true… and it’s pretty awesome:

Every last cent from every sale of the Finally Free lipstick will benefit the MAC AIDS Fund Transgender Initiative, which seeks to support organizations and programs dedicated to improving the lives of transgender individuals.

As we said: pretty awesome, right?

“I wanted a name that I use and which represents the community. This is who I am: Finally Free,” Jenner told E! News in February.

“It’s just so simple. No more secrets. I’m free. I woke up the other morning, and I was just happy. Getting dressed, going out, I’m accepted in the world; people are nice. Life is good. I’m Finally Free.”

Jenner also says she selected a “rosy nude” shade of lipstick because it’s simple and something that can be worn everyday.

We don’t normally suggest that readers purchase products promoted by any Jenners or Kardashians…

… but we can make an exception in this case, due to the good cause Caitlyn is standing behind.

Blac Chyna Promotes Rob Kardashian"s Sock Line With Photo of Her Butt

Rob Kardashian and Blac Chyna may seem like an odd couple, but they share a common desire to live the lifestyle of the rich and famous without developing any talents or doing any real work.

Thus far, they’ve both been remarkably successful in their efforts to cling to the good life through their associations with other people so in a way, it makes perfect sense that they’ve decided to join forces and feed off each other’s fame:

In case you don’t recognize it from the thousands of other photos she’s posted online that’s Blac Chyna’s ass, and it’s perched over some footwear from Rob Kardashian’s sock line.

Did you forget that Rob Kardashian is a “sock designer”? Yeah, we’re pretty sure he did, too.

Anyway, Blac posted that pic along with the droplets of water Emoji, so just to be safe, don’t ever accept a pair of used socks from Blac Chyna.

In case you’re not up on the latest on Blac-Rob (’90s hip hop reference, anyone?), we now have reason to believe that Chyna and Kardashian are engaged, and we’re sure the rest of the Kard clan is just over the moon about it. 

Of course, the betrothal may soon face it’s first challenge, as sources say Drake plans to bang Blac after the NBA All-Star Game this weekend.

But we’re sure Rob has nothing to worry about. 

Who would want a an internationally famous, platinum-selling recording artist when you could have…a reclusive sock designer?

Kris Jenner Promotes Rob Kardashian Sock Line Amidst Blac Chyna Drama

Kris Jenner is not about to let sensitive family business stand in the way of important family business.

Yes, the mother of Rob Kardashian is reportedly angry at her son for dating Blac Chyna… but that doesn’t mean Jenner is about to let her personal life get in the way of her professional life.

The Kardashian-Jenner matriarch and manager took to Twitter on Monday to gush over her son Rob’s new website for his sock line Arthur George.

“The new @arthurgeorge website is LIVE!! ShopArthurGeorge.com (it ships worldwide!!) #proudmama #shoparthurgeorge,” Jenner wrote on her social media account.

We think it’s great that Rob Kardashian has shown initiative and that he has taken charge of his own business.

But it will never not be hilarious that Rob Kardashian actually has a sock line.

Along with the Twitter post, Kris included a photo of numerous Kardashian’s slogan-oriented socks, which he launched in 2012.

Jenner went on to request her son create a “#proudmama sock ASAP!!!”

That sounds cute and all, but multiple insiders have alleged that Kris is anything but proud of Rob these days.

The estranged reality star has been dating family rival Blac Chyna for several weeks now, most recently driving over 1,300 miles to pick her up from Austin after Blac Chyna got arrested for public intoxication on an airplane.

View Slideshow: 11 Times Kris Jenner Was Completely F—ing Over It

Blac Chyna, of course, is the ex-girlfriend of Tyga and the mother of Tyga’s son.

She has been outwardly critical of Kylie Jenner and her sisters ever since Kylie started to seriously date the rapper last year.

With most Kardashians and Jenners making their negative feelings on this romance very well known, Kris recently drove to Chyna’s house in order to talk some sense into her son.

She’s determined to rescue Rob from Chyna, according to various sources.

Thus far, she has clearly failed.

But that’s no reason to let Rob’s sock line fail, right? Especially if Kris is receiving the sort of commission that we strongly suspect she is.

Khloe Kardashian Promotes New Show From Inside a Martini Glass

Don"t you look saucy, Khloe!

We"re just a month out from her new FYI series, Kocktails With Khloe, which promises "cooking, pop culture, conversation and outrageously fun party games."

To promote the show, Khloe teased a behind-the-scenes look at videos and photos featuring the reality star in a cocktail glass, as well as on set in the "sitting area" (there will also be a functional kitchen and dining area).

"I"m lucky that I"ve been able to invite fans into my life and home on a weekly basis," Kardashian said in a statement in July.

"This show will give me an opportunity to continue to do that with new and exciting guests. I can’t wait to show my fans what we have in store on Kocktails With Khloé."

The original air date was set for December 9th, according to People.  However, the network agreed to push the premiere back to January 2016 so that Khloe could focus on Lamar Odom"s health.

Khloe has proven herself as a very entertaining host; when she and Kourtney taped Kourtney & Khloe Take Miami in 2009, Khloe had her own radio show, KHLOE After Dark on South Florida"s Y100.

In unrelated, but adorable news, Khloe Instagram"d a photo of herself with North West.  Both were wearing neon green-lined space glasses and it was super, super cute.

That is all.
