Kim Kardashian Banned from the Met Gala by Anna Wintour?

Poor Kim Kardashian: She just can’t get any respect! What’s a reality star to do? Monday’s Met Gala was one of the biggest, star-studded events in the industry, with tons of A-list celebrities walking the red carpet in gowns that rivaled any seen during Hollywood’s awards season. Yes, the Met Gala is THE event to see and be seen, and the (always fashionable) Kim Kardashian wasn’t there? What gives?

What gives, is that somebody with a lot of power most likely left her off the guest list — on purpose. And that somebody might be the host of the event, Vogue’s Anna Wintour. Uh oh, if Anna doesn’t like you, you’re going to get blacklisted from these kinds of major events. Kim Kardashian’s boyfriend, Kanye West, did attend the Met Gala (without Kim on his arm) and that got tongues wagging. Was Kim being shunned?

It sure looks that way. Kim K. said she was super-busy in California, supporting and promoting her Sears clothing line and attending family photo shoots. She had no time to attend such a mega-event. Yeah, right. Anyone else not believing that story either?

According to Radar Online, Anna Wintour “hates Kim” and personally made sure that Ms. Kardashian was not invited to the Met Gala. Ouch! Some celebrities are able to secure an invitation by purchasing a $25,000 ticket, but even that wouldn’t be enough. Radar Online quotes a source as saying, “Anna Wintour does NOT want her there!” And what Anna Wintour, one of the most powerful women in the fashion industry, wants, she gets. And that’s a Kim Kardashian-free Met Gala.

Poor Kim. That’s pretty mean and rather sad. She’s as much of a “celebrity” as many of the other young women walking the red carpet on Monday night.

Kim Kardashian Heads Back to L.A. After Whirwind Week in New York

Poor Kim Kardashian: The reality TV star looked postively miserable as she arrived in Los Angeles after leaving New York City (and boyfriend Kanye West) behind yesterday. Kim’s spent a week in NYC with her new man, Kanye West, and the two seemed pretty much inseparable for much of that time. Before she left, Kim enjoyed a nice, drama-free dinner with her sisters, Kourtney and Khloe, and their significant others, Scott Disick and Lamar Odom. Now, it seems, it’s back to reality.

Kim K’s home base is California, no matter how much she probably wishes it was New York right now. Are Kim and Kanye getting serious? She must be smitten, judging from the photos taken by paparazzi as she arrived home to Los Angeles. Kim Kardashian almost always manages to at least crack a small smile when photographed, but she looked so depressed and down as she got ready to leave. She looked beautiful, wearing those sexy black leather pants again, but even high fashion and a Hermes bag can’t help when you’re missing someone.

Maybe this whole Kim and Kanye thing IS more than just a publicity stunt. Maybe Kim Kardashian genuinely loves Kanye, or at least likes him enough to miss him terribly when he’s not around.

Once Kim got back, she did what any self-respecting Kardashian girl would do: She headed straight for a Beverly Hills salon for a little pampering (and pouting). Hopefully having her nails done cheered her up a bit. And come on, let’s get real here: Kim will probably be seeing Kanye again really soon, right? It’s not like these two can’t afford to fly cross-country on a whim anytime they can!

Obama’s Jokes for Kim Kardashian

Obama's Jokes

President Obama has finally turned his attention to the fact, that disturbs most Americans … on Kim Kardashian and her boundless popularity. At the 98th Annual White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner which took place in the evening past Saturday, Obama said:

“Why am I of telling knock-knock jokes to Kim Kardashian? What is she famous for, anyway?”

However it was not the end of jokes to the Kardashians family. Jimmy Kimmel in addition to joke about threats addressed the president:

“When you took office, Kardashians had one reality show. Now they have four. This is not a good trend.”

Despite these words in their address, Kim and her mother did’t panic, and pretended to be happy to hear all kind of jokes. Later, Kim tweeted, “Pretty funny speech I must admit.” Perhaps it is the most adequate response, in this situation. If you are the star of such a format as Kim Kardashian, you must have a great sense of humor or something similar to it…

Kim Kardashian at the White House Correspondents Dinner

Kim Kardashian’s everyday life always seems so exciting, doesn’t it? She probably does normal things too, like picking up dry cleaning, watching movies at home in pajamas and the like, but we never hear about it. No, it’s the truly exciting, celebrity-worthy moments that make the headlines, and this past weekend, Kim did it again, as she attended the 98th Annual White House Correspondents’ Association Dinner in Washington DC. Her life is never boring, is it?

Kim K kept everyone in the loop about the big event via her Twitter account, tweeting out photos and info as she enjoyed her evening. And when the Dinner’s emcee, Jimmy Kimmel, made her a punchline of one of his jokes, she laughed it off. Kimmel, by the way, told everyone in the audience,

“If you’re looking for the biggest threat to America right now… She’s right there. Her name is Kim Kardashian.”

Kim Kardashian wasn’t the only mega-celebrity in attendance on Saturday night, but she probably got the most attention. Kim dazzled in a stunningly beautiful, emerald green Lorraine Schwartz evening gown (accented with equally dazzling jewels). She tweeted several photos of other A-list celebrities at the dinner, including Sofia Vergara, Martha Stewart and of course, her mom, Kris Jenner. It’s quite clear that Kim was enjoying herself, and she also snapped a couple of photos of President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama for good measure. Yes, this really was one of Kim K’s more exciting, ultra-glamorous evenings!

Anyone else wonder if Kim Kardashian took the opportunity to talk to some Washington DC politicians about her possible run for mayor of Glendale, California? It probably couldn’t hurt to get a few pointers before she tries to win a public office!

Kim Kardashian and Family Ink Record-Breaking New Reality TV Deal

Are you ready for more of tape star Kim Kardashian and Keeping Up with the Kardashians on your TV? Hopefully so, because Kim K and her family just signed a whopper of a new contract with E! It’s a deal that will ultimately net Kim, sisters Kourtney and Khloe, mom Kris Jenner and her hubby, Bruce Jenner, along with Kendall, Kylie and Rob, more than $40 million.
Yes, you read that correctly. $40 million. What is E! getting from Kim Kardashian for that ginormous sum of money? Not a scandal video. Not an exclusive peek into her world with boyfriend Kanye West. The network that started the Kardashian madness will get three more seasons of Kardashian programming, including Keeping Up with the Kardashians and Khloe and Lamar.
You can bet for that kind of cash, Kim Kardashian will be featured in all shows, prominently. Unreal, isn’t it? Thing about it, though: E! has made a small fortune from the Kardashian television shows, so it’s only fitting that the asking price for more went way up. The world, it seems, is still very, very interested in Kim K and her family.
But what if Kim Kardashian and Kanye West get their own breakout reality show? According to TMZ, they’d need to ink a totally different contract — and of course, for more money.
Wow. Just wow. We knew Kim K was popular, but this is amazing, isn’t it?

Kim Kardashian Talks About Her Favorite Fashion Icon

Kim Kardashian and Jennifer Lopez

Kim Kardashian is a lot of things: reality TV star, girlfriend of Kanye West, former scandal star — but she’s also a fashion forward woman. Kim and her sisters have managed to build an impressive fashion empire with their clothing and jewelry collections and with their super-successful DASH stores. Obviously if someone asked Kim K. about her favorite fashion looks, she’d likely say something Kardashian-designed, right? Sort of.
Kim Kardashian also admires other celebrities’ styles, naming Jennifer Lopez as someone who represents the best of the best when it comes to hot clothing. Surprised? Probably not. JLo’s flashy style is similar to Kim’s look, and the two women do share a similar build. Kim K. told US Weekly,

“I would love to raid so many celebrities’ closets, but I think Jennifer Lopez’s would be amazing.”

What woman wouldn’t want to play around in JLo’s closet, trying on all those over-the-top sexy outfits?
But Kim Kardashian also admires another fashion icon — the Queen of Pop music, Madonna. Kim K. says,

“I think Madonna’s closet would be amazing, just all the pieces she’s had for many years.”

Madonna likely has given some of her most famous outfits to museums, at this point, but Kim would likely be thrilled to pick through the leftovers!
It’s great that Kim has her own fashion idols for inspiration, but considering how well she’s doing with her own fashion lines, she might want to stay in her own closet. Each time she steps out, whether it’s at a Hollywood party or simply out to dinner with her new boyfriend, Kanye, she’s a walking advertisement for her clothes!

Kim Kardashian, Politician? Kim K Announces She Wants to Run for Mayor!

Kim K Mayor

Sometimes, stories just write themselves: Such is the case with the latest news about Kim Kardashian. The reality star has apparently decided that she’s not content being just a celebrity and TV-show star. Kim Kardashian now wants to get into politics, by running for mayor of Glendale, California!
Is she serious? Apparently, yes. In an upcoming episode of “Khloe and Lamar,” Kim Kardashian is overheard telling her sister, Khloe, that she really wants to run for office. She even mentions that her friend, Noelle Keshishian, can run her campaign. There’s only one small problem: Kim points out that in order to run for mayor of Glendale, California, you actually have to live there.
Fortunately, in Kim K’s mind, at least, there’s a workaround. Kim explains to Khloe that, “For real, Noelle is going to head my campaign but it’s going to be like in five years. So I have to buy a house there, you have to have residency there.” Look out, Glendale, a Kardashian’s moving in!
Why Glendale? Kim Kardashian, who has Armenian roots, notes that Glendale, California, does have a fairly large Armenian population. Would they vote for her? Would anyone? Would you?
Of course, Kim has a long way to go before she can actually start her Glendale mayoral campaign. She does have to purchase a home there and establish residency, but you can bet the folks over at E! are already planning a brand new reality show. Stay tuned for “Keeping Up With Mayor Kim Kardashian!”
