Did Kim Kardashian Stage This Kar Ride, Konversation?

January 12, 2012


Kris Humphries is reportedly steaming mad because Kim Kardashian and company staged a conversation on last week’s Kourtney & Kim Take New York that painted him in a negative light.

The incident in question supposedly took place in a car ride from Dubai, as Kris Jenner asked her daughter if she was excited to return home to her “hubby” and Kim replied:

“There’s something in my relationship that I feel isn’t right. I’m learning a lot of things about him that I didn’t really know before… And married life isn’t what I thought it would be with him: I keep thinking something is off.”

But did this exchange actually take place in real time? Or was it contrived at a later date? Watch the clip below (at the 4:30 mark) and you won’t notice any lights in the background, any cars passing by, anything at all except for a black backdrop. Hmmm…

Do you believe this conversation was staged?

Awww: Britney Spears Posts Adorable Kid Photos!


Thank you to Britney Spears, and to her children, for putting smiles on her faces.

Newly engaged and settling back into things at home in California with sons Sean Preston, 6, and Jayden James, 5, after her world tour, the 30-year-old star is loving life.

“Jayden is having some hair-raising fun on the trampoline!” she wrote Tuesday, sharing a photo of her boys playing together outside on her Facebook page. AWW!

On Twitter, Spears also showed off her “little Hercules,” posting a photo (below) of Sean P. flexing his muscles at his gymnastics class. Kid’s breaking out the big guns!

For all the tumult they went through early on, the boys are happy nowadays, as are their parents. Father Kevin Federline recently praised Britney’s fiancé Jason Trawick, saying, “I think he’s a great guy. The kids speak highly of him. Her family loves him.”

And they all lived happily ever after … hopefully. Fingers crossed!

Ted Williams: Where Is He Now?


Remember Ted Williams? The Man with the Golden Voice? The guy who sky-rocketed to fame because he has a deep voice and because America is obsessed with rewarding those who don’t actually accomplish anything?

And who then ended up in rehab a few weeks later?

Entertainment Tonight tracked Williams down this week and aired a feature that updated viewers on the former homeless man’s status. Apparently he’s now clean and living in a condo with his girlfriend! Good for him! Watch for more:

Natalee Holloway Legally Dead, Judge Declares


Natalee Holloway was declared legally dead Thursday by a judge in her home state of Alabama. She mysteriously vanished in Aruba more than six years ago.

Probate judge Alan King made the ruling at the request of Holloway’s father.

While her body was never found, Dave Holloway met a legal presumption of death for his daughter, according to King, who had set Thursday as the deadline for anyone to come forward and prove she didn’t die on the Caribbean island.

With no evidence to the contrary, Natalee Holloway is legally deceased.

The ruling comes just one day after longtime suspect Joran van der Sloot pleaded guilty to the murder of another woman, Stephany Flores, in Peru.

Van der Sloot’s lawyer said the 24-year-old killed Flores in 2010 due to “extreme psychological trauma” he experienced in the Holloway investigation.

After over six years, Dave Holloway made the request to settle his daughter Natalee’s estate and free up funds set previous aside for her education.

Beth Holloway, Natalee’s mother and Dave’s ex-wife, opposed the request, in part because she held out a sliver of hope and also to lead by example.

“Her life’s commitment now is working with other families with missing family members,” her lawyer said. “She would lose her credibility with them if she were to give up hope.”

“How could she tell them not to give up hope if she did, for her own daughter?”

Guy Says Things People Never, Ever Say


People rarely shut up nowadays, but there are some things they just never say.

Ever hear anyone claim Breaking Dawn deserves an Academy Award? Or that they’re really missing Rosie O’Donnell these days? Or they wish they could watch more WNBA games on TV? Or set their default font on MS Word to Papyrus?

Exactly. To that end, here is a collection of phrases you will often never hear:

Robert Kardashian Declares: Khloe is My Daughter!


Robert Kardashian passed away in 2003. So how did the former O.J. Simpson attorney actually come to his daughter’s rescue this week, amidst a growing, tabloid-based scandal?

First, a refresher on said scandal: in the latest issue of Star, two of Robert’s former wives came out and claimed he admitted to them that Khloe Kardashian was NOT his spawn. They quoted their late ex as saying he knew all along that Khloe was the product of an affair Kris Jenner carried on, but he loved her anyway.

Khloe has since come out and slammed the women, while family sources have written off their claims as ridiculous.

Now, TMZ has uncovered a document that might actually prove Khloe truly is Robert’s offspring.

When the elder Kardashian was looking to annul his marriage in 1999 to Jan Ashley, he signed a declaration in court that stated the marriage failed because Jan wanted to have his child and wrote:

“I decided that since I already had four biological children, I did not wish to have any more.”

So there you have it. Is it 100%, definitive proof of fatherhood? No. But it’s mighty close and, come on, there’s plenty to bash about the Kardashians. Why make up such a silly rumor in the first place?

Weird Celebrity Baby Names: Vote For Your Favorite!


All babies are beautiful. All celebrity baby names, however? Let’s just say some are better than others. Below, we rank our favorite weird ones of recent years.

NOTE: We are defining weird as in unusual, not in a negative sense. If you don’t know anyone else with said name, it qualifies as unusual, even if you love it.

The birth of Beyonce’s baby Blue got us thinking: Where does that little one rank? Without further ado, give it up for the (possibly stoned) parents of …

Sarah PicA Beautiful BeyonceA Nicolas Cage Pic

10. Pilot Inspektor. Overcompensating for your own boring name, Jason Lee?

9. Kal-El. The son of Nic Cage. Yes, Kal dash El.

8. Track and Trig. Todd and Sarah Palin’s daughters, Piper, Willow and Bristol Palin, have downright normal names compared to their brothers.

7. Blue Ivy Carter. This one’s kinda cool, but still out there.

6. Sparrow. We liked this name for Nicole Richie and Joel Madden’s second child more when we thought Sparrow was a girl. He is not a girl.

5. Jermajesty. Jermaine Jackson’s son. Yes, Jer-effing-majesty. MJ is exempt, barely, since Blanket is merely a nickname … for Prince Michael II.

4. Spec and Hud. The latter of John Cougar Mellencamp and Elaine Irwin’s sons may be sponsored by the Dept of Housing and Urban Development.

3. Bronx Mowgli. Borough of New York City + Jungle Book character = perfect baby name … at least if you’re Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz.

2. Suri. The apple of Tom and Katie’s eye. Speaking of …

1. Apple. Gwyneth and Chris take the cake on this one.

Access Hollywood’s Shaun Robinson’s Tips for Surviving the Red Carpet

Access Hollywood’s Shaun Robinson — who will be schmoozing with A-listers like George Clooney and Brad Pitt at the Golden Globes this Sunday — shares her five red carpet survival tips exclusively with In Touch.

1. Happy hour. “I drink several glasses of water early enough in the morning so I feel refreshed. Then I don’t drink anything until after the big show is over.”

2. No one sees her knickers! “There’s no room for VPL — that means “visible panty lines”! So, on a big awards show day, my saving grace are the thongs with the super-flat edges.”

3. Time for the ballet. “I fold up a pretty pair of ballet slippers to put in my clutch. They feel like heaven when your feet swell at the end of the day.”

4. Ready for her close-up. “Kissing and award shows go hand in hand, so I slip a thin case of Listerine PocketPaks Breath Strips inside my clutch.”

5. Test drive your ‘do. “You want to look pulled together, so don’t try a new hairstyle — or makeup, for that matter — the day of the ball! Either go with a tried-and-true look or do your hair the day before as a test run.”

Elizabeth Banks as Effie Trinket: First Promo Pic!


Forgive us for a moment, but: EEEEK!!!!!

Okay, sorry. We’re back.

But Lionsgate has released its first official promotional photo of Elizabeth Banks in the key Hunger Games role of Effie Trinket and it’s safe to say we’re a tad bit excited over it.

Elizabeth Banks as Effie Trinket

“A fun part of being an actor and a chameleon is taking on those looks,” Banks told The Huffington Post of the transformation into this Capitol spokesperson. “Effie has a really theatrical, over-the-top, completely not me look to her. I’m very excited for people to see my portrayal. I have no idea if people are going to be into it. I hope they are.”

The Hunger Games trailer, of course, has already been released; while the film comes out on March 23.

Brandi Favre Sued For Destroying Neighbor’s Home With Meth Fumes


Brett Favre destroyed the Minnesota Vikings’ title aspirations two years ago after an ill-advised pick. Now people have a bone to pick with his sister, Brandi Favre, after destroying their house by running an ill-advised METH LAB NEXT DOOR.

Brandi was arrested in a massive meth bust in Mississippi last year, and the couple living next door to the alleged meth lab run by the female Favre claims the fumes from the manufacturing process have wreaked havoc on their home.

The couple claims a meth screening company detected “widespread meth contamination” in their home right after Brandi Favre’s January 2011 arrest.

In any case, the neighbors say they spent five months living elsewhere as their home was returned livable condition – inconvenient and expensive.

The couple is now suing Brandi and her alleged accomplices for unspecified damages. Favre’s case is still pending before a grand jury in Mississippi.

Experts recommended the entire place be cleaned after living next to Brandi, which makes you wonder about the health of people who actually put meth in their bodies.

As for Brett’s efforts to put himself inside Jenn Sterger, that went about as successfully as Brandi’s meth operation … only 20 times funnier.
