Kim Zolciak Shares Topless Photo: LOOK!
It’s pretty safe to say that Kim Zolciak loves her fame and she loves having fans.
Having fans means having followers. She’s reached a new social media milestone, and she’s clearly in a thankful mood.
And what better way to celebrate a ridiculous number of Instagram followers — and, let’s be clear, 2.5 is a lot of millions — than with a topless beach photo?
“Hands up! THANK YOU for 2.5 million!! I appreciate all of you,” her caption began.
Honestly, this photo isn’t surprising.
We all know that she looks great, and there’s no shortage of Kim Zolciak bikini selfies.
Even if she’s been accused of photoshopping them.
Toplessness is kinda just the next logical step, and this isn’t even her first brush with that.
If you’re gonna celebrate a milestone, go wild, you know?
What is kinda surprising to read is the rest of her caption.
“I love getting feedback (most of the time) from you guys. You guys keep me up to date with all things I miss. I love reading your comments/stories. Thank you for sharing in this journey (with me) we call “life.”
No, the surprising part of that isn’t that she comes across like English isn’t her first language.
It’s just … weird how much she seems to delight in genuinely reading the comments that her followers leave.
If hell exists, then surely celebrities who end up there spend eternity reading every single comment that their followers make.
Most celebrities don’t read everything that people write to them on Instagram. Like, even compared to Twitter comments.
Part of that is just that Instagram isn’t really designed for conversations — at all.
The other part is that even a lot of positive Instagram comments just come across as wildly thirsty.
Sometimes bordering on sexual harassment.
“No filter” is supposed to apply to the photos, people, not to the things that you blurt out online.
Maybe she really likes engaging with them on a genuine, human level.
Maybe part of is an inability to look away, like when you scroll down to read the YouTube comments even though no one should ever in their lives do that for any reason.
But part of it could be a savvy approach to social media. Followers are way more likely to stick around if they feel like their voices are being heard.
Talking about her appreciation for comments can encourage them — and more followers — without her having to try to respond.
Honestly? It’s probably a blend of all three, with a major dose of vanity thrown in to boot.
And at her level of MILFdom, a little vanity is pretty understandable.
Lindsay Lohan Launches Jewelry Line, Continues Trying to Make Career Happen
She may not make quite as many tabloid headlines as she used to, but Lindsay Lohan recently entered an interesting new phase in her career.
Apparently deciding that she’s done with Hollywood about a decade after Hollywood decided it was done with her, LiLo has launched a number of new projects that range from baffling to highly illegal.
In the latter category, we have Lohan’s work for the Turkish government.
You read that correctly: Lindsay freakin’ Lohan has spent several months as a paid agent of the Erdogan regime.
That means she’s getting checks from the same folks who paid disgraced former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn.
Like Flynn, LiLo probably didn’t register as a foreign agent before accepting the gig, but fortunately, federal prosecutors have something in common with casting directors:
Neither group appears to have any interest in Lindsay Lohan.
As part of her continuing effort to rebrand herself as a Jolie-esque citizen of the world, Lindsay is also planning to write and direct a series about Russian oligarchs that she plans to pitch to Netflix.
Should be a breakaway hit.
After all, there are two things America loves in 2017: rich, crazy Russians, and ambitious new projects from Lindsay Lohan.
On top of all of this international intrigue, it seems Lindsay has yet another business venture in the works.
Page Six is reporting that Lindsay is launching a jewelry line sometime in the next few months.
If the words “Lindsay” and “jewelry” in the same sentence send shivers up your spine, there may be good reason for that.
Lindsay was arrested for shoplifting after stealing a necklace in 2011.
Coincidentally, that was the same year that she attempted to launch her first jewelry line with the help of designer Pascal Mouawad.
You might think that would be enough to keep Linds away from the baubles biz for life, but at the same time, it’s been a while since she last received that sort of attention from the tabloid press.
Maybe Lindsay is planning to go on another crime spree as a means of researching her new business.
Just be glad she didn’t decide to simultaneously enter the worlds of top shelf tequila and sports cars.
People in the Greater Los Angeles are already have to check the news for LiLo alerts before they leave the house.
Farrah Abraham: Pregnant?!?!
Farrah Abraham … well, she’s not the best mother in the world, from what we see on Teen Mom OG.
She’s rude, she’s disrespectful, she sets a bad example, not just with all the porn stuff, but with her general attitude as well.
She says and does things about and around poor little Sophia that are just alarming, and she seems all too ready to push the eight-year-old girl into adulthood.
We could go on all day, probably all decade, about the weird, awful things Farrah does as a mother.
But why do that when we could talk about the new rumors that she’s pregnant again?!
The last time we saw Farrah with child was all the way back in the 16 and Pregnant days, several years and several faces ago.
She’s said that she does want to have more children, and, well, the time may be now.
In this photo that Simon Saran shared — he and Farrah are currently on vacation together in Jamaica, looking pretty loved up — fans noticed what could be a baby bump.
“Is she pregnant?” one person asked. “She looks prego here.”
Another wrote “Wow! Congrats! When are you due?”
And just like that, a pregnancy rumor was born.
Honestly, we don’t see a baby bump in this photo. Sure, the dress is a style that would work well for a pregnant woman, and there is a tiny little bump, but her back is arched.
That’s how bodies work.
Simon, always ready and willing to give a statement, confirmed our suspicions that this rumor is completely unfounded.
“She’s not pregnant,” he tells Radar Online.
“I believe she had too much Dr. Pepper to drink for breakfast that left her looking bloated.”
Do you kind of love that Simon is such a troll that he explained away his sometimes-girlfriend’s rumored pregnancy by blaming Dr. Pepper?
Because we really, really do.
Even if Farrah didn’t drink a bunch of soda for breakfast, the message is the same: she’s not pregnant.
It looks like there’s a solid chance she’s back with Simon though — they’re on vacation alone together, taking cute photos and looking genuinely happy.
It seems unlikely that he’d subject himself to that if he wasn’t getting anything out of the deal.
Perhaps in time, Simon will propose with that engagement ring Farrah bought herself all those years ago, and there really will be a pregnancy announcement to make.
But thankfully, now is not that time.
