Khloe Kardashian, Lamar Odom target of NY Daily News false controversy
June 28th, 2012 by edsel
The NY Daily News recently made up a completely false controversy about Khloe Kardashian barging into the graduation ceremony of her stepdaughter Destiny, the child of her husband Lamar Odom and his ex-girlfriend Liza Morales.
(What do you know? Alec Baldwin was sort of right.)
According to the NY Daily News, “parents are shaking their heads over the stunt” that the stars of ‘Khloe and Lamar’ allegedly “pulled” when Odom’s two children “graduated from their respective public schools” last week in New York.
On Wednesday, Odom’s 13-year-old daughter Destiny Odom graduated from her public school. Destiny’s mom, Liza Morales, originally invited Khloe Kardashian to the ceremony. But Morales had to take back her invite when “the school limited tickets to three per family” a few weeks before the graduation.
“That left a ticket for Odom, Morales, and Destiny’s grandmother,” the NY Daily News reported, “But not Kardashian,” whom Lamar Odom married in 2009.
The Daily News claimed that “Khloe was determined to attend.” According to the tab, Liza Morales told Khloe Kardashian that the school refused to give her an extra ticket. “Khloe showed up anyway” during the graduation, “And they let her inside.”
The Daily News also claimed that Khloe and Lamar Odom were “photographed walking hand-in-hand to the graduation ceremony.”
Khloe Kardashian, however, supposedly skipped out on the graduation of Odom’s son L.J. And so did Lamar Odom himself, supposedly.
“Odom’s 10-year-old son L.J. graduated from the same school’s fifth grade on Thursday,” claimed the NY Daily News. “What was sad,” the tab quoted a supposed “source,” “Was that… [Lamar Odom] didn’t even show up for his son.”
The source claimed that Odom and Khloe Kardashian already “got their photo-op the day before and then he couldn’t be bothered” with a second event.“It was beyond hurtful,” the “insider” told the Daily News, and added that other parents “couldn’t believe it.”
However, Gossip Cop tore into the NY Daily News report as if it was made of damp graduation ticket paper. Gossip Cop pointed out that the Daily News undermined its own credibility by presenting erroneous information and even outright lies. For one thing, Lamar Odom and Liza Morales were never engaged.
And while Destiny’s school did limit each family to purchasing three tickets to the graduation, Liza Morales didn’t tell Khloe Kardashian about that problem a “few weeks before.” Odom’s baby mama took away his wife’s ticket the day before graduation.
In addition, Gossip Cop confirmed that the school never denied a request for another ticket. When Lamar Odom called to ask for an extra ticket for Khloe Kardashian, the school was more than happy to give him one.
According to Gossip Cop, Destiny and L.J. Odom loved their stepmother. Odom’s kids wanted Khloe Kardashian to be there.
There was also no “photo-op.”Everyone knows the press always keep up with the Kardashians wherever they went.
Finally, Gossip Cop reported that the worst part of the NY Daily News story was its claim that Lamar Odom ”didn’t even show up” for L.J.’s graduation.
Lamar Odom was not only present at L.J.’s graduation, but very proud of his son. While Khloe Kardashian apparently wasn’t able to attend this graduation, her brother Rob Kardashian joined brother-in-law Odom.
Kim Kardashian tells Oprah Winfrey: Kris Jenner doesn’t pimp us out
June 18th, 2012 by edsel
In an interview with Oprah Winfrey, Kim Kardashian put down claims that momager Kris Jenner supposedly pimps her and her sisters out by saying that ”No one will fight harder for you than your own mother.”
E! News reported that Kris Jenner, the three Kardashian sisters, and their brother Rob Kardashian sat down with Oprah for an OWN special airing Sunday. Oprah asked what the Kardashians siblings thought about rumors their momager was “pimping her children.”
“I think that’s so ridiculous,” Kim Kardashian old Oprah Winfrey. “First of all, we have to hire a manager. So regardless,” she said, “Someone is going to get that.”
Kim added that “No one will fight harder for you than your own mother.” According to her, Kris Jenner “knows us. She knows all of our moods…”
And that understanding goes both ways. “We just get each other,” Kim Kardashian said of Kris Jenner, Kim herself, and her siblings. “We vibe [and] it works.”
Oprah Winfrey brought up another touchy topic: That the Kardashians owing their media empire and success to being “good-looking kids?”
Rob Kardashian butted in by gesturing to his big sisters and going “Well, they’re not, like, skinny women.”
“Who are you?” Khloe Kardashian taunted Rob in return. After sarcastically telling her brother that “You’re so sweet,” Khloe told Oprah that there was some truth in the claims that she and her sisters leaned on their beauty.
“I mean in today’s society, yeah, to be honest,” she admitted, “Probably not.” The lovely wife of Lamar Odom told Oprah Winfrey that “You have to have this bombshell over here-” She gestured to Kim Kardashian “-and this petite little bundle of joy-” This time Khloe Kardashian referred to Kourtney. “-and this hunk next to me,” she finished with a bone tossed to Rob Kardashian.
“But we are all different,” Kourtney Kardashian opined. “We have different body types.”
Kim Kardashian told Oprah Winfrey that she didn’t think she and her family would have found success “if we were all like skinny, pretty models,” she reasoned. “I think it has to do with us, the curves, the dark hair!”
In addition, Kim Kardashian was of the opinion that she and her sisters “helped broaden” the representation of Middle-Eastern women in mainstream media during their rise to fame. Their father Robert Kardashian was the son of Armenian-Americans, while their mother Kris Jenner was half-Scottish, half-Dutch.
Paparazzi to cops in Rob Kardashian video: “He tried to kill me”
March 28th, 2012 by faye
TV personality and model Rob Kardashian was arrested early Sunday after he chased a paparazzi and cornered him in a bong shop where he hid. Rob, on the other hand, said that he was just “joking” with the photographer. The whole incident was caught on tape, where the paparazzi can be heard telling the police, “He tried to kill me!”
According to the arrest video, Rob Kardashian was having a heated argument with Rita Ora moments before the chasing incident, and when he realized that their verbal dispute is being recorded by the paparazzi, Rob chased after him. The paparazzi reportedly ran to the nearby smoke shop to hide, but Rob Kardashian saw where he went and followed him inside. The police saw the chase and dashed inside the shop.
The moment the paparazzi saw the cops, he shouted, “He’s attacking me … he chased me … he tried to kill me.” But during the video, Rob Kardashian never laid a hand on the paparazzi.
The police officers grabbed Rob and asked him why he was in the shop, to which the reality star responded, “I’m shopping.”
Rob Kardashian was then placed in handcuffs and warned, “Don’t resist.”
According to the police report, obtained by TMZ, Rob confirmed to cops that he gave chase because he “did not like the paparazzi filming him.” Eventually, the cops determined there was no altercation, so they let Rob Kardashian and the paparazzi go.
