Kim Kardashian Is Open To Marriage & More Kids After Kanye Divorce

by

Her divorce from Kanye West was only recently finalized but Kim Kardashian is still answering questions about remarrying one day. The fashion mogul endured an arduous split from the Donda hitmaker as he moved from one attorney to the next. When Kardashian began dating Pete Davidson, it seemed that she was again in love, but that romance fell apart before the year’s end.

Kardashian sat down with friend Gwyneth Paltrow for the actress’s Goop podcast, and during the chat, relationships were a hot topic. The reality star suggested that the “fourth time’s a charm” for her marriage goals.

Kim was married to Damon Thomas from 2000 to 2004, then to Kris Humphries from 2011 to 2013. Although she was technically with Humphries for two years, Kardashian filed for divorce after only 72 days. She and West wed in 2014 and share four young children.

“I don’t know,” Kardashian told Paltrow about her future in romance. “I have this fantasy in my head, like fourth’s time’s a charm, it’s gonna — it’s gonna work out.”

“I feel, like honestly, my last marriage was my first real [one] — the first one, I just don’t know what was happening,” said Kardashian. “The second one, I felt like I wanted to be married so badly because all my friends were at that place and that’s where I should have been, and I didn’t accept that that just wasn’t where I was and realized that that was okay.”

“And now, I feel like I would definitely take my time — and I would be okay for a forever partnership as well,” she continued. “I would want a marriage, but I’m so happy to take my time.”

Kardashian said “never say never” as far as having more children is concerned. However, she admitted she wants to spend a few years as a single woman.

Kim Kardashian Says That She “Hated” 2018 White House Visit

by

Kim Kardashian says that she “hated” the way she felt while visiting the White House in 2018. Kardashian reflected on the trip during her recent appearance on the Angie Martinez IRL Podcast.

“I hated how I felt when I went into the White House for the first time and I didn’t know half of anything that they were saying – like all of the clemency talk, and all the attorney lingo and everything that they were talking about,” she said. “I literally was sitting there, like texting my attorney that was next to me.”

Kardashian went to the White House to meet with then-President Donald Trump on behalf of Alice Marie Johnson. Trump later commuted Johnson’s sentence. She had been handed a life sentence in 1996 over nonviolent drug charges.

“I was to the point where I didn’t even know like all of the abbreviations in the White House, so they were like okay this person at the DOJ, and I was like ‘What is the DOJ?’” she continued, before adding, “And my attorney was like, come on Department of Justice and she kept texting me all this stuff but I was never too embarrassed to ask.”

Kardashian added: “I think that sometimes like you go into something and you like I should know all this stuff.”

The White House eventually invited Kardashian back to further discuss clemency.

Kardashian recently studied to receive a law degree. She says that her late father, attorney Robert Kardashian, would be proud of her efforts.

Kim Kardashian Tearfully Described Co-Parenting With Kanye West As ‘Really F*cking Hard’

by

To put it lightly, things have been a little rocky for Kanye West over the past few months, from antisemitic comments to reports of his inappropriate conduct with Adidas and Yeezy employees. Through it all, Ye and Kim Kardashian have been co-parenting their children together, a process that Kardashian now says has been difficult.

Kardashian is the guest on a new Angie Martinez IRL Podcast episode shared yesterday (December 26). In it, Kardashian, on the verge of tears, spoke about the challenges of co-parenting and navigating West’s controversies with her children, saying (as ET notes):

“It’s hard. Sh*t like co-parenting, it’s really f*cking hard. I had the best dad. And I had the best memories and the greatest experience. And that’s all I want for my kids. As long as they can have that, that’s what I want for them. So, if they don’t know things that are being said, or what’s happening in the world, why would I ever bring that energy to them? That’s real heavy, heavy grown-up sh*t. And they’re not ready to deal with it, you know? When they are, we’ll have those conversations. And I’ll be so prepared. But until then, I’ll do anything to keep their life as normal as possible.”

Kim Kardashian Says She Protects Her Children From Any Negative Conversations About Ye

Kim Kardashian is opening up on a variety of subjects with Angie Martinez. As a guest on Martinez’s IRL Podcast, Kardashian spoke about co-parenting with her ex-husband, Ye, amidst rolling headlines about his numerous controversies.

“I’ve managed to…I’m holding on by a thread,” Kardashian said. “I know I’m so close to that not happening, but while it’s still that way, I will protect that to the end of the Earth as long as I can.”

Kardashian stated she keeps the talk of the outside world, in regards to Ye, away from her children. She also puts aside personal issues the two have to meet her children’s needs.

“If we’re riding to school and they want to listen to their dad’s music, no matter what we’re going through, no matter what is happening in the world, I have to have that smile on my face and blast his music and sing along with my kids and act like nothing’s wrong,” Kardashian said.

She added, “As soon as I drop them off, I can have a good cry.”

Kim Kardashian is finally speaking out about Balenciaga’s recent campaign drama. The high fashion brand released a controversial holiday ad featuring kids holding teddy bears dressed in bondage. Kardashian came under fire after fans slammed the SKIMS founder for not addressing the campaign scandal sooner. 

Kim, whose relationship with the brand has grown tremendously over the years,  opened up about the backlash on Angie Martinez IRL podcast’s. “With the Balenciaga thing, everyone was like, ‘Why aren’t you speaking out? Why aren’t you speaking out?’ And I’m like, ‘Wait. I’m not in this campaign,’” Kardashian told Martinez. “‘I don’t know what’s happening. Let me take a minute to like research this.’”

“And then as soon as I saw what everyone was seeing on the internet and the reality of the situation, I completely spoke out and gave my thoughts,” Kim added. “But because I didn’t say, ‘F— you, Balenciaga. That’s it,’ people got mad at that. So they’re mad if I don’t speak out. They’re mad if I do speak out, and if I don’t cancel.”

The mom of four says she took responsibility for her relationship with brand before speaking out. “You don’t want to be a part of the narrative, but you’re brought in,” Kardashian explained. “But then I have to take responsibility and say, ‘Okay, people look at me as the face of this, so let me speak out.’ I just always want to do the right thing.”

Kim also spoke about her co-parenting relationship with Kanye during her sit-down with Angie Martinez. “In my home, my kids don’t know anything that goes on in the outside world.”It’s hard. S—t like co-parenting, it’s really f—king hard.” The reality star added that she wants her kids to have the best memories of their dad. “If they don’t know things that are being said, or what’s happening in the world, why would I ever bring that energy to them?” she shared. “That’s real heavy, heavy grown-up s—t. And they’re not ready to deal with it, and when they are, we’ll have those conversations.” Check out Kim K’s full interview below. 

Kim Kardashian, Doja Cat, & Chloe Bailey Share Sexy Christmas Eve Selfies: Photos

by

‘Tis the season! There’s so much to love about the holidays, from eating delicious food in the company of those you love the most to decorating your home in Christmas décor. One major part of the season that so often gets overlooked is the fashion of it all. Luckily, stars like Kim Kardashian, Chloe Bailey, and Doja Cat are here to remind us what expert holiday glam looks like.

Earlier on Saturday (December 24) afternoon, the reality starlet flexed her bold night-before-Christmas outfit on Instagram. “Believe in u,” she wrote in the caption.

From the tip of her pointy stilettos to the start of her sharper-than-a-knife jawline, the mother of four decked herself out in cheetah print. Her hair – still platinum blonde – shines white from the camera flash. Her roots can be obviously seen at the top of her head.

The look doesn’t exactly scream Christmas, but it’s certainly bold, and that, we admire. In the comment section, Paris Hilton gave her classic seal of approval, writing, “That’s hot” beside a fire emoji. 50 Cent’s boo, Cuban Link also dropped by to show some love. Chlöe did as well – after she dropped off some heat of her own.

For her part, the “Have Mercy” hitmaker worked with JPW Photo to capture some incredible images. They find her being deliciously unwrapped for the camera. In the first photograph, we get a close-up of Bailey’s glam and her stunning necklace.

“Santa baby,” her caption reads, followed by a red kiss emoji. In the subsequent shots, we see her teasing her figure behind an oversized fur coat, then standing, unwrapped, atop a pile of presents.

On the photographer’s own page, he shared other images of Bailey sporting an even more bare look – this one all black. Standing in front of a red background, the Atlanta native expertly works for the camera as she poses in sky-high heels.

Other sultry snapshots that have caught our eye come from Doja Cat. Also working with JPW Photo, the Planet Her songstress opted to wear curve-hugging red and white lingerie.

Rocking her signature extra-thin eyebrows, she was undoubtedly having the time of her life on set. Check out the pictures below, and stream our annual hip-hop holiday playlist here. Merry Christmas!

Kim Kardashian Looks Back At It In New Thirst Traps As Pete Davidson Spends Time With Female Friend

by

It’s been a year full of breakups and, subsequently, makeups, for several of our favourite celebrities. From Chrisean Rock and Blueface’s neverending turbulent chaos earning them a reality show to the marriage of Ben Affleck and Jennifer Lopez decades after their original engagement, there’s been no shortage of news to take in. Arguably one of the strangest unions we saw in 2022, though, was Kim Kardashian and Pete Davidson.

The two have since gone their separate ways, but during the months that they were together, they constantly made headlines. Whether the Saturday Night Live alum was getting tattoos dedicated to his girlfriend (not an uncommon move for him), or being berated by her ex-husband, Kanye West, they knew how to keep all eyes on them.

Their breakup came suddenly in August. Prior to that, they attended the Met Gala together, with Kardashian controversially donning Marilyn Monroe’s iconic gown. Additionally, they made their union social media official with several PDA-filled snapshots on date nights and baecations.

For her part, the mother of four seems to be enjoying her life as a single woman. She hasn’t been seen with a man in recent months. Rather, she’s been solely focused on her various brands, children, and other personal endeavours. That doesn’t mean she doesn’t still have time to share the occasional thirst trap, though.

On Monday (December 19), Kardashian started the week off right with a salacious selfie showing off her behind in a window. “Looking back at ’22 [wink emoji]” she captioned the shot.

In the centre of her behind, the California native tagged her SKIMS shapewear line, shamelessly promoting herself. In the comments, friends like La La Anthony, Lauren Sanchez, and Food God showed their support for the blonde beauty.

The upload has interesting timing, seeing as her ex is dating scores of beautiful women recently.

Firstly Davidson and model Emily Ratajkowski made headlines with several New York City outings. The last time they were together in public was courtside at a basketball game. Since then, the 29-year-old was out with another woman, causing some to speculate that he’s moving on.

A report from TMZ reveals that the mystery lady is Chase Sui Wonders, his Bodies, Bodies, Bodies co-star. They’re “great friends” who “hang out all the time,” but are “most definitely not an item.”

Kanye & Kim’s Ex-Bodyguard Says He “Never Saw Any Affection”

by

Kanye West & Kim Kardashian’s former bodyguard, Steve Stanulis, says that he “never saw any affection” between the two. He worked with the former couple for 15 days in 2016, a period which will be the focus of a new documentary, 15 Days With Kanye.

“It was like I discovered the Titanic,” he told The Sun in a recent interview. “I’ve never seen them snuggly or hold hands or anything romantic. You know, even like when they were together, they kissed each other goodbye, and I don’t mean like make out. I mean just like, ‘Hey, see you later, hun.’ I never saw any affection.”

Stanulis went on: “I just thought it was odd. I’d be with them sometimes 17, 18 hours a day, and she’d be doing her thing, and then he’d do his thing.”

The bodyguard added that he only saw Kim around on “maybe four or five of those [15] days.”

Ye and Kardashian married back in 2014 and remained together until last year. They share four children together.

Later in his discussion with The Sun, Stanulis remarked that West “absolutely needs rehab.” He added that he could tell West “had some issues.”

“I didn’t know how dire or to what extent again,” he further continued. “But I came out of that [gig] saying, ‘I couldn’t deal with that on an everyday basis.’”

15 Days With Kanye will premiere on January 19 at the New York City International Film Festival in 2023.

Stanulis’ comments come as West has been facing vast public scrutiny for his recent behavior. He’s made countless antisemitic comments while losing millions in endorsement deals.

Lola Brooke Wants To Make Jay-Z Proud: The “Don’t Play With It” Rapper On Brooklyn Drill, Kim Kardashian & Pusha T Co-Signs & More

by

It’s Christmas time, again. It feels like we were ringing in 2022 yesterday but it feels like time is moving at an unfathomably rapid pace these days.  As we’ve done in the past, HotNewHipHop returned with our annual 12 Days Of Christmas series where we chop it up with some of your favorite rappers, musicians, athletes, and entertainers about their annual highlights. 

Kicking off the series is one of the most exciting new voices out of New York City this year, Lola Brooke. Like many of her contemporaries, the Bed-Stuy native had her big break off of TikTok with the success of “Don’t Play With It.” The adrenaline-pumping production and her charismatic delivery became a hit after her “From The Block” performance began to garner attention. However, once TikTok got a hold of the record, it formed a life of its own. Cardi B, Kim Kardashian and North West are among Hollywood’s elite of the strength of “Don’t Play With It.” At the same time, she’s landed on the radars of formidable MCs like Pusha T and Meek Mill, who’ve shown her nothing but love in recent times. 

“I used to say, when I put the song out, I said to my team, ‘Don’t Play With It’ could really be a thing.’ I just thought it could be a thing on TikTok. Like, imagine kids playing with things they not supposed to be playing with. Things that are dangerous. Don’t Play With It, Don’t Play With It, Don’t Play With It,” she told HotNewHipHop.

What really sold people was the authenticity of Brooklyn that seeps through each bar. The night before our interview, Lola Brooke performed at the Barclay’s Center during the Wizards vs. Nets halftime show – the same night Ab-Soul linked up with Jay-Z. As a Bedford-Stuyvestant native, that performance stands as a highlight of her year. If not for performing in one of the biggest stages in her borough, then for being able to showcase her talent in front of the biggest export out of Bed-Stuy.

“When he sees you, remind him of where he came from. And he be proud that he came from where he grew up from,” she recalled telling herself during her performance. 

For the first installment of 2022’s 12 Days Of Christmas, we chopped it up with Lola Brooke to discuss co-signs from Pusha T & Kim Kardashian, embodying Brooklyn, and so much more.

This interview has been edited and condensed for length and clarity.

Kim Kardashian Reacts To Brittney Griner’s Release

by

Kim Kardashian shared her support for WNBA star Brittney Griner on her Instagram Story, Saturday. She shared a tweet that called for the release of Americans imprisoned for drug offenses.

“If we can get Brittney Griner out of a Russian prison for weed, surely we can free Americans who are sitting in American prisons for the same thing,” the tweet reads. A user named @TyHobsonPowell posted the tweet.

It isn’t the first time that Kardashian has lent her platform towards advocating for the WNBA star’s release. Back in July, she wrote on Instagram, “FreeBrittneyGriner.”

Russia released Griner in a prisoner swap that involved arms dealer Viktor Bout, last Thursday.

“She’s safe, she’s on a plane, she’s on her way home,” President Joe Biden said at the White House on Thursday morning. He later described her situation as “untolerable circumstances.”

“Brittney will soon be back in the arms of her loved ones, and she should have been there all along,” he added.

On the plane flying home, Griner remarked, “I have been in prison for 10 months now, listening to Russian. I want to talk.”

Special Presidential Envoy for Hostage Affairs Roger Carstens told CNN that Griner spoke with everyone she could on the flight.

“And she moved right past me and went to every member on that crew, looked them in the eyes, shook their hands and asked about them, got their names, making a personal connection with them,” Carstens said.

Russian customs officials detained Griner after finding cartridges containing hashish oil in her luggage.
