Kourtney Kardashian & Younes Bendjima: Here"s How They Met!
Even though it"s not the most public or most dramatic relationship in the Kardashian clan, Kourtney and Younes Bendjima are an intriguing couple.
For a celebrity couple of a reality star MILF and a model, they have an astonishingly chill relationship.
But what"s most interesting of all is how they met, as Kourtney Kardashian reveals in the video below. This is kind of bonkers, and it involves Kim Kardashian getting robbed.
Scott Disick has spent a considerable portion of this year making decisions that are … questionable at best.
If you"re a millionaire and you want to drink and have sex with models, that would normally be fine.
It"s less fine when you"re a public personality and also a father.
And, quite frankly, it"s totally not cool that Scott"s various exploits were embarrassing to Kourtney.
Furthermore, even if Scott"s three children were successfully sheltered from their dad"s summer of bad behavior, Scott Disick ended up in the hospital and, quite frankly, things could have been a lot worse.
What if he"d died? As a father, he has to care about that.
Now, Scott complains that banging teens wasn"t fulfilling, and says that he had way more reason to be jealous or whatever of Kourtney, who developed a meaningful relationship with Younes Bendjima.
But how, exactly, did things begin for Kourtney and Younes?
It all stars with Khloe, who asks the (probably planned) question of Kourtney:
"You met him in Paris when you were with Kim for fashion week?"
It"s a leading question and it"s a prompt, as a lot of Kardashian conversations begin on Keeping Up With The Kardashians. it makes their discussions sound more natural and it"s part of their recipe for success.
Kourtney replies:
"Yeah, we like walked into a bar and Stephanie [Sheppard] was across from me and she kept going, "This guy"s cute over here."
Steph Sheppard, of course, is Kourtney"s super good friend and also Kim Kardashian"s assistant who maybe hates her job.
Younes is a model, so Steph"s assessment of his cuteness was correct.
"He was friends with our friends. He would walk in, say hi, shake hands with like our security or whatever, but like not say hi to us."
Lots of beautiful women feel relieved when a guy is ignoring them, but clearly Younes not noticing them got under Kourtney"s skin.
Kourtney continues: "And then I was like, "Why do you hate us?" I was just drunk."
Yeah, alcohol and the accompanying lowered inhibitions can really help people speak their minds. For better or for worse.
"Once I said that he literally like grabbed my hand and was like, "It"s five in the morning. We"re leaving.""
Is Kourtney saying that they hooked up right then? it"s not entirely clear. (A lot of great relationships start with a hookup, folks)
And clearly, it turned into something really quickly.
"And the next night Younes was like, "Bring your ass here.""
It sounds like Kourtney likes to be bossed around a little, right? Are we the only ones getting that vibe?
But there was a huge family crisis — when Kim was robbed in her hotel at gunpoint while millions of dollars of her jewelry were stolen, causing her to fear for her life.
"And then when we walked into that club was when we went to the bathroom and got the phone call about Kim. So then the party was over."
We would imagine so, yeah.
The only thing worse than getting a call like that from your sister would be actually experiencing the living nightmare that Kim endured.
A crisis so early into a relationship that it can barely be called that can be a huge test for a blossoming couple.
A test that Younes Bendjima passed with flying colors.
"And then he was like, "I"m not leaving you guys," and he like had to translate everything."
Wow.
It"s easy for us to think of Younes as Kourtney"s boy toy. He"s much younger and much less famous.
But having a younger model who"s there to look pretty and make him feel good is Scott"s thing. Kourtney clearly likes a little depth to her relationships.
(And, again, it sounds like she doesn"t mind a little assertiveness at all)
Kourtney and Younes bonded in a crisis, it sounds like. That"s always going to be with them.
Watch the video below to see what we mean.
"You met him in Paris when you were with Kim for fashion week?"
"Yeah, we like walked into a bar and Stephanie [Sheppard] was across from me and she kept going, "This guy"s cute over here."
"He was friends with our friends. He would walk in, say hi, shake hands with like our security or whatever, but like not say hi to us. And then I was like, "Why do you hate us?" I was just drunk."
"Once I said that he literally like grabbed my hand and was like, "It"s five in the morning. We"re leaving." And the next night Younes was like, "Bring your ass here.""
"And then when we walked into that club was when we went to the bathroom and got the phone call about Kim. So then the party was over. And then he was like, "I"m not leaving you guys," and he like had to translate everything."
Sia Releases Nude Photo For Awesome Reason
If you’re familiar with singer Sia’s craeer and public persona, then you’re probably aware that the 41-year-old Aussie doesn’t exactly court the spotlight.
Quite the reverse, in fact, as she routinely conceals her face with outlandish wigs or paper bags when appearing in public.
But while Sia may prefer to remain hidden and keep the focus on her music, she proved today that she’s willing to bare all in order to thwart criminals who seek to profit from invading her privacy.
It seems Sia caught wind of the fact that a secretive group was looking to sell several illicit photos taken by paparazzi while she was in a private residence.
Rather than allow these bastards to cash in on their crimes, she undercut their efforts by posting the images online for free.
“Someone is apparently trying to sell naked photos of me to my fans. Save your money, here it is for free. Everyday is Christmas!” Sia tweeted along with a link to the images.
Obviously, Sia shouldn’t have had to take such drastic actions, but this is certainly a masterclass in turning a negative into a positive!
She even snuck in a plug for her forthcoming holiday album, Everyday Is Christmas.
Sia handled the situation like a boss, but for many, the story is bringing to mind other instances in which public figures saw their privacy invaded by hackers in the most appalling fashion imaginable, the most notable of which may have been the so-called “Fappening” that took place in 2014.
Once again, the issue here is about consent.
Sia has posted nude photos in the past, but she did so of her own volition.
This time, her hand was forced, which makes what happened to her nothing less than a sex crime.
Astonishingly, in 2017 there are grown adults who believe that if a public figure has posted nude photos in the past, they’re now considered fair game, and anyone in possession of additional explicit images can post them with impunity.
This makes about as much sense as arguing that because a woman has had sex before, she can’t be raped.
Sexual assault in Hollywood has been in the news a lot lately, with many brave souls coming forward with shocking stories of abuse.
It’s important to bear in mind that being publicly exposed against one’s will can be a traumatizing experience that takes a lifelong toll on the victim–and the perpetrators of such misdeeds are criminals who must be brought to justice, just the same as Harvey Weinstein and his ilk.
