Beyoncé, Jay Z, Rihanna, Pharrell Williams and Kanye West are all taking legal action against French sportswear label, EvelenParis

The celebs and their respective holding companies are alleging that the brand has used each of their names and likeness without their permission on garments they are selling. 

The garments in question also have their faces printed onto them as well as slogans like "Kanye is my Homie" and "Pharrell is my Brotha."

The Paris-based company retails relatively inexpensive products including jumpers, t-shirts, backpacks and phone covers – although the garments in question have all now disappeared from the brand's website. 

Almost 60 violations against the musicians are listed in the lawsuit and the high-profile group is seeking the end of manufacturing for all offending items.

They also want unspecified damages including not only legal fees but the profits made from the items that were sold too.

But the plot thickens, as this isn't the first time that the company has fallen foul on celebrities, as the lawsuit details a prior warning: 

"Even after receiving warning to cease selling the infringing goods, defendants continue to sell unauthorised products and to trade upon the goodwill associated with the plaintiffs, all for defendants' profits."

We can see a long road ahead of this one!

Kim Kardashian opened up about being pregnant on her website yesterday, and she definitely didn't hold back.

The reality star, due on Christmas Day, confirmed earlier this year that she was pregnant with a son.

The news came after a long struggle to conceive again with her husband Kanye West.

And though she is counting her blessings every day, Kim admits she's just not a fan of being pregnant.

“I’m gonna keep it real," the 34-year-old mum wrote in a piece titled How I Really Feel About Being Pregnant.

"For me, pregnancy is the worst experience of my life!

“I don’t enjoy one moment of it and I don’t understand people who enjoy it."

This time around, Kim has been keeping with a dedicated team of personal trainers, and has been eating a nutrient-rich diet to ensure her pregnancy is as comfortable as possible.

But even though she still dares to bare in skintight dresses – and can still wow in a bikini – Kim says she just doesn't feel like herself.

"Maybe it's the swelling, the backaches or just the complete mindf**k of how your body expands and nothing fits.

"I just always feel like I'm not in my own skin."

As for welcoming her second child, Kim says she is not looking forward to the aftermath of the pregnancy either.

"People just don't tell you all of the gross things that happen during pregnancy or after," she wrote. 

"Do you know you basically have to wear a diaper for two months afterwards?! LOL! No one told me that! #SoSexy."

Of course, the KUWTK star made sure to end things on a more positive note.

"Really, it is all SO worth it when you have your precious baby in the end!

So for all my complaining, it's 100 percent worth it and more," she finished.

Amber Rose might love drama, but when it comes to her exes she's ready to back down.

Speaking at her Slut Walk event in LA on Saturday, Amber broke down in tears in front of a crowd of thousands as she reflected on her relationships with Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa.

"I want to forgive Kanye about what he said about me,” she said, in reference to Kanye's now-famous diss on a radio interview back in February.

"I want to let all of that negativity go."

Kanye lost the run of himself on Power 105's The Breakfast Club when he said he had to "take 30 showers" after sleeping with Amber.

Of course, it's worth mentioning that his comments came just days after Amber's public spat with Kanye's sister-in-law Khloé Kardashian via Twitter.

One person who's not quite ready to forgive and forget though, is Amber's mum Dorothy, who didn't hold back with her choice of sign for the Slut Walk:

Organised by Amber herself, the event aimed to helps raise awareness for victim-blaming in acts of sexual violence.

The mum-of-one also set the record straight on her messy break-up with Wiz Khalifa, who is the father of her two-year-old son Sebastian.

"He came out with this song that really hurt me, because all I did was ever love him," Amber said through tears. 

"I loved him so much and gave him a beautiful son, and to be told that I was nothing but a stripper — it hurt."

She went on to say that Wiz had since apologised for his cruel comments, and asked other women to forgive and forget if they felt they could.

As with her first pregnancy, expectant mum Kim Kardashian has been suffering with swollen ankles and water retention.

But this time around she's being a lot kinder to her body, and even taking steps to tone down the glamour a little for the sake of comfort.

The reality star was spotted leaving a hotel in San Diego on Wednesday having ditched her usual stilettos for something altogether more practical – a pair of fluffy white hotel spa slippers.

Of course, Kim looked totally primped and preened from the ankles up, with a skintight black jersey dress, a black cover-up, a full face of make-up and her hair down and straight.

Little North West matched her mama in a sleeveless black dress. though she wore black and white moccasins instead of slippers.

Back in 2013, Kim was pictured wearing a pair of nude and perspex heels that cut into her ankles, leaving many wondering she was taking things too far in the maternity style stakes.

For her second pregnancy, it seems Kim is being more strategic, spacing out high-fashion outfits with more low-key ones. 

And after donning a pair of strappy black skyscraper heels the night before for her grandmother's belated 81st birthday celebrations, it's no surprise Kim was feeling the burn yesterday morning.

Speaking about her pregnancy style on her new website and app, Kim, who will welcome a son in December, said she was done with trying to conceal her growing belly.

"I am confident and not trying to hide my bump. I actually want to accentuate it," she explained. 

"And yes, long coats to cover my fat arms and ass! It's such a trip how your body grows and changes, and at the end of the day, you have to wear what you are comfortable in and what you feel good in."

For months she was seen at high-profile events sporting an array of eye-catching wigs in black, blonde and even blue.

Kylie Jenner later admitted the reason behind her love of artificial hair: her own tresses were seriously damaged after years of dyeing, styling and straightening.

However, the sacrifice seemingly paid off – and she marked her recent 18th birthday by swapping to a gorgeous ashy blonde.

"It took months of not dyeing my hair and wearing wigs to get my hair back to health so I can do this!!" she explained on Instagram while unveiling her new look.

So why is Ms Jenner, and just two weeks after the dramatic change, now back to wearing wigs?

Donning bright green, mermaid-style locks, she was on hand to launch the Sugar Factory American Brasserie in NYC – to which she also wore a stunning ivory crop top and matching pencil skirt from surprisingly affordable Aussie label, Zachery

Although known for her love of mega-expensive designers, Kylie's outfit cost just €125 in total – €52 for the top, and €72.50 for the skirt.

Still, it was very much her hair that proved the talking point of the event – with many fans speculating that the reality TV star's bleached mane is already suffering.

Indeed, in recent days her mop has certainly looked tired and stressed, with the originally 'dirty blonde' hue turning to a more brassy shade. 

As well as successfully launching the Sugar Factory, an event to which hundreds of fans and photographers showed up, Ms Jenner is enjoying something of a boon in popularity since turning 18 last month.

Despite the presence of numerous other high-profile celebrities, she and her rapper boyfriend Tyga, 25, have been the toast of New York Fashion Week.

Yesterday, she also modelled pieces from her brother-in-law Kanye West's new Yeezy season 2 collection, the unveiling of which took place at the Skylight Modern venue in Manhattan's swish Chelsea district. 

That and the app that she unleashed this week is proving to be a runaway hit.

And on social media, she is still the world's most viewed user on Snapchat, while on Instagram she now boasts some 36million followers. 

 

I love you guys so so much.

New York Fashion Week has taken its toll on New Zealand singer Lorde, who took to Instagram yesterday to show off a rather nasty beauty disaster.

The Royals hitmaker posted two selfies showing off her "screaming and weeping" right eye free of make-up, though she was still working the winged liner on her other eye.

Rather than answer the same questions over and over again for journalists at Kanye West's Yeezy show that day, Lorde chose to address the issue on Instagram instead.

"One question: what happened to your eye?" she captioned the first selfie, taken in the middle of her hair and make-up session.

And after returning to her hotel following Kanye's show, the Kiwi singer gave some further insight, saying she would rather be out and about than holed up in her bedroom.

"The skin is peeling off my lips and hands these days I very rarely see the sun," she wrote.

"My eye is weeping and screaming and it's fashion week and everyone already thinks i'm strange and it's a kanye show where the freaks are beautiful so why not say fuck it and let's dance with the melodrama?"

We like her attitude.

Eye infection or not, Lorde took pride of place in the front row at the Yeezy catwalk presentation, sitting between Kourtney Kardashian and Givenchy creative director Ricardo Tisci.

So important was Lorde's presence that poor Kendall was renegated to the second row behind all of her sisters – awks.

Even with pink eye, she's still killing it in the style stakes… total win.

Kanye West's SS16 Yeezy collection debuted at New York Fashion Week yesterday, and despite the countless stars in attendance, it was three-year-old North who stole the show.

Jaden Smith, Anna Wintour, Drake, Lorde, Seth Meyers and of course the Kardashian-Jenner sisters were all there to support Kanye for his third catwalk presentation, which featured minimalist sportswear in various shades of nude and neutral.

A video posted to Kim's website yesterday and later shared on social media by a fashion editor shows Kim and little North having a beautiful mummy-daughter moment before the show begins.

Telling her mum that Minnie Mouse will be joining them for the special occasion, the Disney-obsessed toddler then confirms that her own name is Minnie too, not North. 

How cute?!

Kim and her adorable tot were decked out in Yeezy gear for Kanye's big day, with Kim sporting a long beige trench and North in a miniature version of one of the key looks – a beige hoody and skintight leggings.

Back in 2013 while expecting North, she was often criticised for wearing 'pregnancy inappropriate' clothing.

But now, and just three months away from giving birth to her second child, Kim Kardashian's attire has regularly won widespread praise.  

And certainly, the 34-year-old hasn't been afraid to push the fashion boat out with a series of daring looks.

Today in New York, she kept the style stakes sky-high with a black leather wrap-around skirt teamed with a ripped beige t-shirt.

She also draped over her shoulders a stunning, full-length Balmain coat with oversized gold button detail, completing her look with over-the-knee black boots.

The reality TV star and her rapper husband Kanye West, 38, also wowed in Givenchy last night – with Ms Kardashian in particular looking stunning in a black lace number which complemented her baby bump.

Kim is due to give birth to the couple's second child – a boy – in December and evidently has been enjoying a healthy and happy pregnancy so far.

She's known now as the seriously sophisticated fashionista; the wife of one of music's biggest stars, and all-in-all probably the most famous face in the world.

But it hasn't always been such a wholly glamorous existence for 34-year-old Kim Kardashian. 

As well as once working as a stylist, sorting out the wardrobes of Los Angeles's rich and famous, six years ago the reality TV mega-star (she's set to earn €47m this year alone) furthermore fronted her own series of workout DVDs.

Promising a "beautiful backside," the release is playfully entitled Fit In Your Jeans By Friday.

Intriguingly, kimkardashianfitness.com is still very much up and running, providing a gloriously tantalising throwback glimpse into the the pre-Kanye world of Ms Kardashian.

"We all see celebrities in magazines and on TV and wish we could wriggle into the latest trends worn by our favorite stars.

"The thing is – celebrities work out too – otherwise they wouldn’t look as good as they do!" she writes on the site, adding: "My workouts show how easy it is to get the body you want for any style jean you want to wear.

"Fit In Your Jeans By Friday is an all access pass to my personal training sessions filled with 'How To' tips and Bonus Workouts."

Amazon describes the offering, which was first released in the US in 2009, as "a quick paced workout formulated to have you squatting, lunging and lengthening to a chiseled core in less than five days!

"This workout will isolate and condition all muscle groups of the butt, hips, legs, arms and midsection while burning 100s of calories."

On board to help her with her workouts are trainers Patrick Goudeau and Jennifer Galardi – with Jen saying afterwards in a promotional interview that it's "easy to see why people want a booty" like Kim's.

"That girl is TINY with an amazing backside and now an amazing body to go with it.

"Kim had realistic goals. She worked with what her momma gave her," the trainer added, "and while she definitely has become toned and tightened, she still maintains her beautiful feminine shape."

While performing her light weight-training, Pilates and mild cardio moves, Kim sports a trio of outfits for the DVD: first up, there is a black Spandex body-suit teamed with knee-high Puma boots, fingerless gloves and a sparkly belt.

The star can also be seen in a crop-top and leggings combo accessorised with a leather, zip-detail waist belt.

Meanwhile, her final look consists of classic, figure-hugging leggings worn with Nike booties and a black cut-out top which exposes a plunging purple-coloured bra.

Of course, to this day, the California-native – now pregnant with her second child – retains her love of fitness and exercise.

Indeed, she is often spotted heading to gyms close-by to the €17.5m Hidden Hills home she shares with Mr West and their daughter, North.

North West may only be a toddler, but sometimes we feel like she's already more mature than her dad, who seems too busy planning to run for Prez with Taylor Swift to think about growing up.

We're not the only ones who feel that way, if these photos are anything to go by.

Kim kardashian and North visited Milk Studios in New York yesterday, and one Imgur user decided to transform this sweet snap…

She is the first to admit that she's had her fair share of style disasters – but there's no doubt that Kim Kardashian isn't afraid of pushing the fashion boat out.

And over the weekend, she got it oh-so right. In fact, we're awarding her a coveted 10/10!

The 34-year-old reality TV star and her husband of more than a year, rapper Kanye West, were attending one of New York's most prestigious weddings when she made the seriously on fleek style statement. 

With both opting for sophisticated black, Ms Kardashian wore a €4,000 caped dress from Valentino, along with simple black sandals and an embellished choker.

Mr West, meanwhile, was also looking particularly dapper in a tailored black tuxedo suit from Haider Ackermann.

 

What a beautiful wedding! Last photo before we checked in our phones. to Mr. & Mrs. Steve Stoute

The couple were there as guests of music executive and groom Steve Stoute; fellow attendees included Jay Z and Beyonce, and Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz.

Social media posts and cameras inside the venue were strictly off limits for the soiree, although Kim did say afterwards that the wedding was "beautiful".

Ms Kardashian is currently five-and-a-half months pregnant and will give birth to her second child – a boy – in December.

Kanye West’s 2020 presidential campaign is off to a celebrity filled start!

During last week’s MTV VMA broadcast, Kanye was awarded the Video Vanguard Moonman. During his (lengthy) acceptance speech, the rapper announced “I have decided in 202 to run for president.”

Now, nobody is really certain whether Kanye fully intend to follow up on this statement or not, but that hasn’t stopped one singer from getting behind his campaign.

Taylor Swift has announced that she will be willing and able to become his running mate. Which is kind of awkward because you have to be a certain age to become the Vice President of the United States; and Taylor will coming in five years shy of the mark in 2020.

Taylor presented the award to Kanye at the ceremony, putting to rest any rumours of bad blood still remaining between the pair.

At the Grammys this year it was clear that the two were on friendly terms, but Taylor still couldn’t help but make a throwback to that 2009 incident on Sunday night.

On Friday she took to Twitter to post a thank-you message to the star after he sent her a fabulous looking floral arrangement.

Does it look familiar to you? That may be because it does bear a striking resemblance to the arrangements at Kanye and Kim’s wedding, which People magazine helpfully pointed out.

More important than the cute thank-you though, Tay-Tay also offered to join his Cabinet. Which makes us wonder, what would the rest of the squad do if Tay took the VP spot?
