Kanye West

Kanye West is now well known for his shocking behaviour (on and off stage), and last night was no exception.

The rapper was performing during the closing ceremony of Toronto's Pan Am games, when he began experiencing some sound problems. Ever the diva, Kanye refused to wait for things to be fixed and instead he stormed off the stage in protest after just 13 minutes of performing.

The Gold Digger hitmaker was having some technical difficulties which meant the audience could barely hear him, when he eventually got so fed up that he simply left the stage, throwing his mic up in the air, walking off mid-song and refusing to return for an encore.

Kanye left around 40,000 fans waiting and people attending the Pan AM games closing ceremony were not happy about it. 

Kim Kardashian's husband was the final artist on as part of the closing ceremony, following performances by Pitbull and Serena Ryder.

In case you were unaware this week, Kris Jenner threw her daughter Kylie, and Kendall, a surprise graduation party. The photos were incredible and we all had intense FOMO for days.

Naturally, for a family as photogenic as they, there was a photo booth on hand to capture all of the most celebrity filled moments of the bash. Older sister Kim and her daughter North took a turn in front of the cameras and some serious magic then ensued. 

The Kardashian-West clan sat themselves down for a quick family portrait and we have been captivated by the results. 

Just look at little North West.

Kanye is famous for his straight faced expressions, it seems to be a habit of his to not let the public know he's having a good time. He's kind of owning that little quirk of his.

However, his 2-year old daughter North is quite the Princess Sassy herself and we think Kanye could take note of these moments when she nailed the 'too cool for you' attitude.

She may have just turned two, but North West is already accustomed to a pretty lavish lifestyle with a whole team of staff employed to ensure she and her parents look their best at all times.

While we can just about cope with the toddler having her own stylist, and getting meals made by her parents' personal chef, this latest development had us thinking things had gone a little too far. According to new reports, North's mum Kim Kardashian has hired the little one her very own personal trainer.

Before you get too stressed thinking of poor North sweating on the cross trainer, don't worry, as it seems Kim has just asked one of her own team of trainers to work with North a couple of times a week after her own session. "They teach her [North] fun stuff like stretches and other basic aerobics, nothing strenuous," a source told RadarOnline.

While most toddlers get enough exercise in simply by running around all day, Kim apparently wants North to get used to a regular workout routine early on in life. The reality star "thinks it’s perfectly normal to want to get North in shape at such an early age," the insider adds.

And there's no shortage of trainers to choose from, as Kim has reportedly upped her own fitness regime now that she's pregnant, adding a larger team of exercise gurus to her payroll.

Over the weekend Kim revealed that she had so far gained 20lbs in her first 20 weeks, but so far her baby bump seems very modest indeed:

We don't mind Kim wanting to stay in shape, but maybe she should leave Northie to her own devices for now?

Envisioned by Kanye and primarily starring Kim, they're the images that raised eyebrows when they were released online earlier this month.

And now, yet another snap from the shoot, which took place in rural northern France in March, has emerged – although this time, the shot is a coveted, behind-the-screen one which did not end up being published.

Proving every bit as delectable as its predecessors, the more recent photograph offers a further candid glimpse of the highly-stylised concept – which was driven by Grammy-winning rapper Kanye West.

Most importantly for her many fans, it appears to show Kim Kardashian's globally-famous bum in all its unairbrushed glory.

She can be viewed crouching on her hands and knees as she climbs a mound of earth on the sprawlling Château d’Ambleville estate.

On the day, the 34-year-old reality TV star had worn a nude-coloured body-suit, gold bra, black stockings and suede lace-up boots.

Behind – and occasionally in front of – the camera was famed German photographer Juergen Teller.

He appeared in short navy-hued shorts and a warm red jacket in some of the shots. Meanwhile, Mr West can also be seen in further images.

The pictures were taken for a special pull-out supplement in System magazine, a publication previously little heard of outside France.

Mr Teller, 51, is well-known for snapping a host of high-profile names and faces. He has also held numerous exhibitions around the world, and often mans designer label adverts.

Just yesterday we reported that Scott Disick was under pressure from friends to change his ways for the sake of his now-ex girlfriend Kourtney Kardashian and their three kids, and now it looks like he is trying his best to make amends.

Kourtney reportedly kicked Scott out for good 10 days ago, although it's thought he had not spent time in the couple's shared Calabasas home for a number of weeks prior to that. With Scott's almost-brother-in-law Kanye West telling the partyboy dad that it was time for him to "man up" and get himself to rehab, we're not surprised that Scott has made a fairly significant gesture of apology today.

Just a week after postponing a Las Vegas club appearance, the reality star has now also pulled out of another event that would have earned him a cool $50,000 (€46,000). 

The appearance, at Pool After Dark in Atlantic City, was scheduled to take place on Saturday but the organisers have confirmed today that Scott will not be present, with no word if the event will be rescheduled, according to TMZ.

Given Scott's history in Atlantic City, it comes as no surprise that his close friends are not keen for him to go ahead with the event this weekend. Back in March, 'Lord' Disick partied at another Pool After Dark event until dawn, and at 8am was found drunk in his hotel lobby with no shoes on.

TMZ reported at the time that Scott had to be escorted back to his room and ended up missing his morning flight to Chicago for another event.

So if Scott's not in Atlantic City this weekend, might he be hightailing it to California to win back Kourt? Watch this space…

It's been over a week since Kourtney Kardashian's split from Scott Disick was made public, and it sounds like the Kardashian-West clan have no intention of letting Scott back into the fold.

Kourtney's brother-in-law Kanye West reportedly ordered Scott to get himself into a rehab clinic the week the split was announced, telling him to "man up" for the sake of his family. Us Weekly report this week that the rapper called Scott sometime around July 5th, telling him he needed to seek treatment ASAP and "get his act together for the kids."

There's been no word yet what the custody arrangement will be for Scott and Kourtney's three young children, five-year-old Mason, three-year-old Penelope and seven-month-old Reign, but Scott has certainly been staying away from Los Angeles for now. And although he did briefly check into rehab over the Fourth of July weekend, it was only a matter of hours before he left again, according to numerous reports.

It's also thought to be Kanye's doing that Scott pulled out of a controversial nightclub event in Las Vegas just days after the split was confirmed. Last week Twitter users lashed out at Kourtney's ex for tweeting about his appearance at Vegas club 10ak rather than focusing on making amends with his girlfriend and children, but within 24 hours the event was cancelled, a decision which Us Weekly's source says Scott made under Kanye's advice.

At the moment, the reality star is hiding out in Long Island, with one eagle-eyed fan grabbing a photo with him at a pharmacy in the area. As for his partyboy ways, while Scott did cancel his Vegas appearance, he has reportedly agreed to an upcoming $50,000 (€45,000) event in Atlantic City.

Will he ever learn?

Well, we’re only mildly disappointed after Kimmy K let us in on one of her parenting plans for her second child.

Anyone who was hoping for some real navigational inspired names is going to be a little let down.

Despite popular opinion (or blatant speculation), Kim has confirmed she will not be naming her second child along the same theme as little North West.

 

My cutie!!!!

Speaking on Shaquille O’Neal’s The Big Podcast yesterday, the 34-year old reality TV star said that if she were to name her second child South it would be the “stupidest” idea ever. Harsh, it was just a suggestion.

Kim says she’s been asked about the name “hundreds of times,” but she considers it “the stupidest question, no disrespect to you.” None taken Kim, trust us.

 

These love bugs! #HappyBirthdayP

She did however confirm that while she believes North is the better name and she doesn’t want to “try and duplicate that with like a lower direction,” she and Kanye aren’t exactly considering names like John or Michael.

So fans of Kim and Kanye can expect something a little more fresh and original. We expect nothing less from the stylish twosome.

We can only imagine what kind of unique name older sister to-be North will be suggesting.

 

I love my family!

Kim and husband Kanye, 38, are expecting a baby boy in December.

All eyes are on the star’s maternity style after having previously said she’s going to be making changes to both her health and wardrobe choices this time around.

Just this weekend she was spotted taking little North to the cinema in Calabasas wearing a figure-hugging maroon maxi dress, which has got the tabloids all worked up over the supposed first signs of her baby bump.

Amber Rose is recently showing off her curves in her latest Instagram post. This picture shows her in a white swim suit that is the same one that Kim wore in an old twitter pic. 

Kim posted a picture of herself in this swimsuit shortly after giving birth to her daughter, North, and the internet went crazy for her 'belfie'. 

Almost two years later, Amber Rose who is an ex-girlfriend of Kanye West, posted a picture of her wearing the same swim suit and we wonder if she's challenging her to a 'who wore it better?'

Amber Rose posted a second picture in the swim suit to show that she really does have a bum to rival Kims. 

Kanye's current and ex baes haven't been on the best of terms over the years and this is being made worse by the fact that Kanye says he made Amber Rose's career.

In a radio interview, the model criticised Kylie Jenner's relationship with Tyga as he was previously dating her best friend Blac Chyna. 

Kim's sis Khloe wouldn't stand for that being said about Kylie and she took to Twitter to express her anger saying  “I was a stripper since I was 15 years old,” Amber Rose told Foxx. Please don't worry about my sister who has a career & her s*** together at ONLY 17 people who live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.”

Amber replied: "I'm happy u brought up the fact that I was a stripper at 15…."

It was the rather bizarre photoshoot that caught our – and the world's – attention yesterday.

And now, thankfully, yet more shots have been released from the current edition of System magazine, which stars Kim Kardashian.

Styled by Kanye West, the photographs have certainly raised eyebrows – with many observers panning them as ridiculous.

Who knew, however, that Ms Kardashian was such a big fan of the great outdoors?

Taken several weeks ago at the sprawlling Château d’Ambleville in northern France, and by famed photographer Juergen Teller, the 34-year-old reality TV star can be seen posing up alongside some farm machinery.

She also lies out in a grassy field, and happily looks out onto the French countryside.

All these photographs, and more, appear in a special pull-out section of System, entitled Kanye, Juergen & Kim.

While fans are normally hugely supportive of Kim's forays into fashion, it seems many have drawn a line this time.

"I am dying of laughter and can't stop. Please I'm begging you no more," said one fan online. "I still can't believe they would release these shots," mused another.

"These photos wouldn't look out of place from 'Naughty Farmers Wives Monthly'. She looks absolutely ridiculous," suggested a third.

Mr Teller is a 51-year-old German photographer who is well known for snapping a host of high-profile names and faces.

He has held numerous exhibitions around the world, and is often behind the lens for designer label adverts. 

 

Still, System is delighted with the publicity that the photographer and Kimye have now created.

Indeed, with a huge amount of interest from the US (where the publication is ordinarily not available) already, the editors have ordered a larger than normal print run. 

A select few outlets outside of France have also been given a limited number of copies to sell, while from tomorrow the magazine will also be available for purchase from system-magazine.com.

Kim Kardashian, bless her, has given us a lot over the years – not least endless (no, really – endless) talking points, topics of conversation, and issues of debate.

And today, we spotted this gem – another matter on which to pontificate. 

In the photograph, she can be seen in a nude body suit, over which she is wearing a gold-hued bra, along with black stockings and lace-up boots.

More bizarre is the location: a pile of earth that looks half construction site, half set of Room To Improve (albeit without Dermot Bannon lurking in the background in a hi-vis and hard-hat).

The shot was taken several weeks ago at the sprawlling Château d’Ambleville in northern France, and by famed photographer Juergen Teller.

Meanwhile, the entire shoot was styled by Kim's multi-talented 38-year-old husband, Kanye West. 

It's not all about Kim, though. Further images from the shoot show Kanye sporting his now trademark scowl.

Meanwhile, photographer Mr Teller features in short-shorts (emphasis on 'short') and the sort of red jacket your mammy would put on you before you walked to school on a chilly morning (no doubt his version is rather more expensive, however).

In February, and hinting at his artistic vision, Mr West declared: "I have millions of ideas and I represent a new generation just trying to express themselves in a broken world.

"I don’t call myself a designer as I was not allowed to go to Saint Martins because I was too famous by the time I realized I wanted to design.

"Fame is often looked down upon in the design world, so it’s actually been something I had to overcome."

With the resulting images from the French shoot making up a spread in an edition of System magazine, we're hoping to see yet more from the Kim-Kanye-Juergen collaboration as soon as possibe.

Have you ever wondered how it is that Kanye is just nailing the style game again and again?

Well, we found the answer, and by answer we mean a pair of brothers from Staten Island that are possibly the coolest siblings we have ever met (sorry Hemsworth brothers).

Twins Dee and Ricky Jackson, grew up in a not so great neighbourhood with their grandmother, who they credit for keeping them out of trouble and getting them into the fashion world.

“Our grandmother, who is a seamstress, is the one who taught us how to sew,” Ricky tells the New York Post in the run up to their designs being featured in an exhibit called “Rise of Sneaker Culture”. Sounds amazing.

At the age of 15 the twins started to make belts and other accessories out of their Xbox controllers. Ricky says this made their designs original and quickly helped them to be recognised in the street style world:

““We had to find a way to distinguish ourselves… So we took our love of all things fun and colorful and incorporated it into our daily looks.”

In 2007, they made their debut on the Marc Jacobs runway and quickly after could count Kanye himself and Rihanna as two of their biggest fans.

Miley Cyrus is also known to sport some of their colourful designs.

The pair’s customised accessories and trainers have been coveted by many celebrities, with Beyoncé being the latest to have requested a unique piece from the boys: a pair of jeans for Blue Ivy.

Dee and Ricky aren’t just content to cater for the celebrity cliques though, when asked who their dream customer would be their answer was only a little surprising.

“I would love to see President Obama in one of our sneakers… Like, ‘Yo, did you see what Obama was wearing while he was walking the family dog?’”

We reckon Boo and Barack would just love to bring some serious style to the lawns of the White House.

Right now the pair are focused on launching their site deeandricky.com and their Instagram page is an education in fashion.

We feel more stylish after just scrolling through their feed to be perfectly honest.

Some of her harsher critics have claimed that her use of Botox and other fillers is at times OTT – resulting in a waxen appearance.

But when Kim Kardashian arrived in London earlier today, it was clear that she'd had quite bit of work done: €200,000 worth of work, in fact.

Yes, fans may now be rather concerned that reality TV's biggest star has once and for all gone down the plastic surgery route… but they need not fear!

For the Kim Kardashian spotted in England is, in fact, made entirely of wax.

The €200,000 Madame Tussauds statue, which was unveiled today, even takes selfies – an activity perfected and championed by Mrs West herself. 

The figure also wears the same striking Balmain minidress that Kim wore for her Paris hen party two days before her wedding to rapper Kanye West (well, it's an expertly-crafted recreation, as the original is worth some €16,500).

Although, appropriately for a woman rarely seen in the same item twice, Kim will undergo a number of designer outfit changes throughout the summer: the Balmain dress will depart at the end of this month, making way for a fresh look.

And Kanye himself will shortly be arriving at Madame Tussauds in waxwork form, being placed alongside his wife of a year.

The tourist attraction – one of the most popular in the city – said today: "When we were thinking about how we should portray Kim here at Madame Tussauds London, it quickly became obvious it HAD to be taking a selfie.

"But we wanted to make it really special and create a set where guests can take a picture that will look as if they have just bumped into Kim."

The 34-year-old, who is expecting her second child, already has a wax work in Madame Tussauds New York.

Depicting her donning a hot-pink Hervé Léger dress, it was unveiled in 2010. At that launch, Kim said: "This is one of the greatest honours ever and I am so thrilled and excited.

"Now I will never have to leave NYC."
