Kim Kardashian: I Was Naked When I Talked to Trump!

Kim Kardashian has been a divisive figure throughout her career, but she recently earned some much-deserved, near-universal praise for using her fame and influence for good.

Though generally left-leaning in her politics, Kim reached across the aisle back in June and contacted Donald Trump.

Her goal was to secure the release of Alice Johnson, a grandmother who had already served 22 years of a life sentence she received as a result of a non-violent, first offense drug conviction.

Whether or not you"re a fan of either Kim or the president, most folks seem to agree that the decision to release Johnson after more than two decades behind bars was an unqualified good.

Appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night, Kim spoke of her dealings with the Donald and revealed that she was au naturel at the time she received her first phone call from Trump.

"Did the president know that you were in just like a robe and nothing else because he probably would have released the whole prison if you"d told him that," Kimmel quipped.

Ah, yes, Trump is a pervert.

That joke never gets old … unless you"re one of his victims.

Kimmel didn"t go easy on Kim, but to her credit, she refused to allow herself to be backed into a corner.

Asked about Kanye West"s love of Trump, the mother of three refused to defend her husband"s controversial polticial views, and even threw what could be interpreted as mild shade:

"He"s not political so he doesn"t really dig deep into what"s going on," she said of Kanye.

"He likes kind of just his personality and how he made it to be president when everyone really underestimated him."

Yes, as many predicted, West"s love of Trump has nothing to do with politics and everything to do with the fact that he sees in the president a fellow egotisitical blowhard.

As for her own views on 45 … well, Kim was a bit more cagey in that regard.

"I have nothing bad to say about the president," she told Kimmel, leading the host to reply:

"Right, because you"ve still got people on the list."

"I"m very focused," Kardashian replied.

Hey, if Kim wants to keep her views on Trump to herself for a good cause, we"re all for it.

Stay focused, girl.

Caitlyn Jenner: I Haven"t Talked to Kim Kardashian in 9 Months!

Back in April, Caitlyn Jenner published a memoir that was loaded with scathing insights on certain members of her famous family.

Naturally, her publishers loved it, because what’s a Kardashian memoir without a whole mess of petty drama and accusations?

Caitlyn’s ex-wife and stepdaughters, however, were slightly less enthused.

If Kim Kardashian’s feud with Taylor Swift taught us anything it’s that Mrs. Kardashian-West knows how to hold a grudge.

And it seems that these days she’s got enough pent-up rage for both Taylor and Caitlyn.

In a recent interview with Good Morning Britain, Caitlyn revealed that Kim completely cut ties with her after learning Caitlyn planned to bash the Kard clan in her book.

“We haven’t talked in nine months. I love Kim so much. It’s such a huge loss in my life not having her there anymore. It’s really sad,” Caitlyn told the U.K. morning show.

“I love all my children. I spent 25 years raising these kids.”

It seems Kim is pissed about certain accusations Caitlyn leveled at Kris Jenner in her book.

The most surprising and potentially damaging was the claim that Kris essentially forced Caitlyn to remain in the closet, rather than come out as transgender.

Kris maintains that she had no knowledge of Caitlyn’s desire to transition at any point in their marriage.

Caitlyn says that not only was she not permitted to live an honest life, she was often disparaged for expressing any opinions at all.

As such, she saw the memoir as an opportunity to finally be heard:

“With that family, you’ll notice on the show [Keeping up with the Kardashians] that I always kept my opinions to myself,” added Caitlyn.

“I was living in a house with very opinionated women and I was always left in the background and kept my mouth shut.”

She maintains that while the book was occasionally unflattering, she had no intention of disparaging Kris or her daughters.

“This book was my story. I was finally giving my side of the story. It was completely honest and I continue to feel extraordinarily proud of my book,” Caitlyn says, adding:

“Unfortunately though, the Kardashians, particularly Kris, didn’t react that way even though I went overboard to be nice and friendly.”

Sounds like Kim and Caitlyn have very different ideas about what constitutes “nice and friendly.”

Caitlyn Jenner: I Haven"t Talked to Khloe Kardashian in YEARS!

Caitlyn Jenner has been giving interview after intervew (after interview after interview after …) to promote her new memoir, The Secrets of My Life.

But at this point, it’s unclear if she’s promoting the book or using the media to burn every single bridge she’s ever built.

It’s a fine line, because it’s obvious that Caitlyn just wants to tell her story, and goodness knows she’s waited long enough to live her life like she always wanted to.

But on the other hand, she does have a family to consider, and she could be a bit more sensitive in the way she tells some stories.

In a new interview on Andy Cohen’s radio show, Caitlyn revealed that she’s no longer in contact with Khloe Kardashian, the stepchild she used to be closest with.

“She doesn’t want to talk to me,” she explained. “She hasn’t talked to me in, like, two years.”

The whole situation is “sad,” Caitlyn said, because “I was very very close to Khloe, I mean I had 23 years of raising her. I met Khloe when she was 5 years old.”

She added that “of course it hurts,” but that they stopped talking after Khloe did her big Howard Stern interview, the one where she said that Caitlyn had lied to multiple family members about her transition, and “that kind of pissed me off, too.”

“I never lied to her, you know,” she said, “if I didn’t tell her everything. First of all, she never asked.”

So OK, this whole thing is kind of confusing for a few reasons, the big one being that it definitely hasn’t been two years since Khloe and Caitlyn spoke.

The Howard Stern interview, the thing that Caitlyn is saying destroyed her relationship with Khloe, happened in early 2016 — so a year and a few months ago.

But Khloe also had a big heart-to-heart with Caitlyn on the current season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, and judging by the other events in that episode, the conversation took place late last fall.

We’re not sure if she’s a little forgetful or if she has a poor grasp of time, or if she’s trying to twist the narrative to make herself seem more sympathetic, but it’s clear that the “she hasn’t talked to me in two years” claim is a big ol’ fib.

Unfortunately, that’s not even the saddest thing about Caitlyn’s new interview.

She explained that after reading her memoir, Kris Jenner was so upset “that she called me up and said she never wanted to talk to me again, so I haven’t called her back.”

“My book is honest and it’s my story and I’m sorry she feels that way. And I just don’t want her to alienate me from my children.”

And it turns out that when Caitlyn says that, she’s referring to the Kardashians and her biological daughters, Kendall and Kylie.

When asked, she said that she doesn’t know if she’ll be able to maintain a relationship with any of them, and “we’ll see how that goes off in the future.”

See what we mean?

Just a whole big pile of sadness.

Kanye West Talked Kim Kardashian Into Staying With Him, Source Says

For a while there, it looked like Kimye was a thing of the past. 

Just last month, Kanye West and Kim Kardashian were living in separate homes and seemingly on the verge of divorce.

(It would be his first, her third.)

There had been rumors of trouble in the Wests marriage in the past, but this time, there was real reason to believe that the couple had actually hit a rough patch.

The situation came to a head when West was hospitalized following an emotional breakdown back in November.

In the weeks that followed, the iconic rapper had to fight to recover and find a treatment program that would work for him going forward.

Now, it seems that he also had to fight to save his ailing marriage.

Prior to his hospitalization, Kanye took flak from the Kardashians for not being supportive enough after Kim was robbed at gunpoint in Paris.

At the time, insiders say, she was ready to leave her husband of two years due to his emotionally distant and increasingly erratic behavior. 

“She didn’t realize how much of Kanye’s behavior stems from a mental illness,” an insider tells Us Weekly.

“When he’s doing the things his therapists tell him to do, she is so much happier.” 

These days, the Wests are reportedly back together, but still taking things slowly.

Kanye is back living at home after spending some time in a sort of private halfway house designed to ease his transition back into day-to-day life.

In addition to making amends with Kim, Kanye is said to be focusing on repairing the other damaged relationships in his life.

The insider confirms reports that the Wests have apologized to Jay Z and Beyonce, following Kanye’s public bashing of the hip hop power couple back in November:

Kanye West Attacks Beyonce and Jay Z in Another Rant

The couples had a sit-down and Jay and Bey’s SoCal home last week, during which Yeezy reportedly offered a full apology for the damage he’d done to their friendship.

“Jay was very reasonable and understood that Kanye wasn’t feeling well when he made the remarks,” says the source.

“He was forgiving.”

Hopefully, members of Kanye’s fan base who have been alienated by his antagonistic remarks in recent months will feel the same way.

Will Smith Reacts to Prince Death: I JUST Talked to Him!

Like so many others in the entertainment industry, Will Smith is in mourning today over the death of Prince.

Unlike so many others, however, Smith has a personal reason to being especially stunned over the passing of this musical legend.

The actor had literally just spoken to Prince prior to his death.

“I am stunned and heartbroken. I just spoke with him last night,” Smith wrote in a Facebook post yesterday, adding:

Today, Jada & I mourn with all of you the loss of a beautiful poet, a true inspiration, and one of the most magnificent artists to ever grace this earth.”

Earlier Thursday morning, around 9:45 local time, the Minneapolis native – who earned seven Grammy Awards and one Academy Award over the course of an iconic career – was found unresponsive in the elevator of his Paisley Park home and studio in Chanhassen, Minnesota.

He was 57 years old.

Tributes and messages of condolences have been pouring in ever since, from all corners of Hollywood.

You should really read what Justin Timberlake had to say.

It will help you gain a grasp on just how influential Prince has been to countless musicians of this era.

Will’s wife, meanwhile, also honored Prince on her Facebook page Thursday. Here’s a look at what Jada Pinkett Smith wrote about the legendary artist:

Prince was one of the first artists to put me on game in regard to the industry. He was not only a genius artist, he was kind, funny, beautifully eccentric, curious, imaginative, magical, spiritual, rebellious and extremely intelligent.

He showed me early the power of living one’s life by one’s own rules and no one else’s. There are really no words to express what we have all lost today. To quote my friend Paress, “Music has lost its heart beat.”

Rest in peace Beauty…

Officials are yet to establish a cause of death.

All we know at the moment is that an airplane carrying Prince as a passenger was forced to make an emergency landing on April 15 because the singer fell ill.

There’s been talk this was the result of a drug overdose, but that rumor has not been confirmed.

Prince felt well enough to leave the hospital after a few hours and even appear on stage the next day.

He also apparently felt well enough to talk on the phone with Smith on Wednesday night, as if everything was totally fine and normal.

It’s just so very sad.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Barely Talked During Ski Vacation!

There are marriages you see as doomed, then there are those that you truly believe will go the distance.

I believe that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s union falls into the latter.  Despite reports that couple, who wed in 2014, are “heading for divorce,” K&K seem to be doing just fine.

Unless you’re a tabloid, in which case any off-handed remark can be misconstrued, and before you know it, Kim and Kanye are dividing up their assets.

Someone saw West and Kardashian interact publicly in Vail, and told Radar Online that they didn’t appear to “be affectionate at all,” adding that “not a lot of talking” went on.

West, however, was extremely pleasant

“Kanye was very kind to friends and paps,” and seemed to fine with talking to anyone who approached him.

“He was standing there like a proud dad when guys were taking pictures of North,” the eyewitness added.

The family stayed at high-end resort Solaris in the city center, and took advantage of their VIP status.

 “They were requesting three big refrigerators and they wanted family pictures at the residency with [their absent brother] Rob on there!” another source told the publication.

Still, the crew seemed grateful, calling the hotel’s gym and spa facilities ” a dream.”

Welp, seems like a good time was had by all.  Kardashian was probably on her phone while West was on toddler patrol, and Rob Kardashian was there in spirit.

As for a rift in the West marriage, yours truly thinks it’s a load of hullabaloo.

The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Recap: We Talked it Out

We hope you’re sitting down, because (wait for it) The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 6 Episode 10 featured plenty of tension.

Absolutely astonishing, we know. Let’s get into it, THGers …

Watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 6 Episode 10 Online

On The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills Season 6 Episode 10, Kyle and Lisa V. planned a burlesque-themed joint anniversary soiree.

Faye Resnick was on Kyle Richards’ guest list though, and if you watch The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills online with any regularity …

Well, you know that’s going to be a controversial move.

Kyle got angry at Kathryn for speaking out against Faye as well, so really, Resnick is never more than one degree away from drama.

Perhaps most significantly, though, Lisa Rinna felt it was time to clear the air regarding Munchhausen’s disease and Yolanda Foster.

Oh yes: Rinna sat down with her co-star and copped to the fact that she “engaged” in “outside chatter” about Foster and her illness.

Such as: Were Foster’s Instagram posts appropriate if she’s ailing? Was she even really sick or is Yolanda Foster faking Lyme disease?

You know. Standard gossip. Rinna also mentioned that there was talk of Munchausen syndrome, which Foster knew nothing about.

It was all very confusing and off-putting, but Rinna, who is “not super comfortable” around Foster, did apologize for her role in all this.

Sort of. She also left the door open to more drama.

The cop-out apology clearly didn’t make Yolanda feel entirely at ease, or at all at ease, as she called Rinna “despicable” at the party.

Foster lamented in a statement that sums it all up:

“Who in the world has three years to fake being sick? I wish they would use the energy they’re wasting talking about me to come take care of me.” 

Yes, but that would make her RHOBH co-stars entirely too logical, compassionate, considerable, selfness and most of all, human.

Not sure some or any of them qualify TBH.

Rob Kardashian: Talked Into Getting Gastric Bypass Surgery?

Yesterday, Khloe Kardashian gave an interview in which she revealed that after weeks of ignoring his diabetes diagnosis, Rob Kardashian is finally taking his health seriously.

She didn’t go into specifics, and sources say Rob is still refusing rehab, but apparently according to Radar Online, the troubled 28-year-old is taking his family’s advice in one respect.

Rumors of Rob undergoing gastric bypass surgery have been circulating for months, but insiders say it took this latest health scare – plus some cajoling from Kris Jenner – to convince him to undergo the procedure.

“Kris told him it’s time to take action – she wants him to have gastric bypass or gastric banding surgery,” a source close to the situation tells Radar.

“Kris has already booked an appointment for a long consultation with LA’s leading bypass surgeon, and Rob has agreed to go. He knows this is his only option right now.”

Well, it’s not his only option, but since Rob has repeatedly refused to work with nutritionists and personal trainers, it may be his best option at this point.

The surgery would likely mean that Rob will be lying low for several more months, but once he’s recovered, he may finally be ready to make that long-awaited comeback.
