Kim Kardashian is the Guest Judge on Top Model

KIM KARDASHIAN APPEARS AS A GUEST JUDGE

The girls put their interviewing skills to the test as they interview “90210’s” Jessica Lowndes on the set of “The Insider.” The ladies are surprised to learn they must write their own scripts for their CoverGirl commercials. Kim Kardashian is this week’s guest judge.

Kardashians add a chimp to their reality show

Just to add a little excitement to the next season of their reality show, the Kardashian family has added a chimpanzee to their household. I’m sure this will be a real ratings booster, because people will be tuning in to Keeping Up With the Kardashians to see if the cute little scamp will go on a rampage and rip everyone’s faces off, like Travis the chimp.

Here’s what Kim wrote on her blog about the newest hairy addition to the family:

Her name is Suzy, she is three years old, and she is a handful!

She steals our BlackBerrys and climbs up my mom’s bed.

Having a monkey is a lot of work. Suzy always has her diaper on and we are the ones who have to change it!

It’s just like having an infant but worse because Suzy runs around like a teenager! She always needs to be fed, drinks out of a bottle and she loves Capri Sun juices!

I’m trying to image a monkey running around like a teenager…nope; can’t do it. Does this mean that Kim ran around like a chimp when she was a teenager? Anyway, there is so much wrong with Kim’s monkey post (aside from the fact that it reads like it was written by a third grader), especially in light of the most recent chimpanzee news stories.

Talk amongst yourselves.

Khloe Kardashian and Rashad McCants Split. I didn’t even know they were dating

Kim Kardashian’s sister Khloe has informed her fans that she and Minnesota Timberwolves guard Rashad McCants have broken up. Khloe is on the reality show, Keeping Up With the Kardashians, and will be on the upcoming season of The Celebrity Apprentice.

From her blog:

Hey guys.  I wanted you all to be the first to hear the news that as of last night Rashad and I are no longer together.  Relationships are hard enough as is when you live in the same city, and he’s in a different city everyday for games. Our time together was just so limited because of both of our schedules that we decided it is best not to be in a committed relationship.  The last seven months have been great and we will definitely remain close friends.

Just know that the other day when I responded to breakup rumors, we were still together and this is not the result of either of us “finding” someone else.  It was based on a mutual discussion we had and we realized that this is what makes sense for both of us.

Sorry if I’ve confused you guys over the past few days with such contradictory posts. Today is a new day with new drama. LOL.

Fortunately, there are plenty of single pro athletes and reality stars in the sea for both of them to bounce back.

Ray J Set to Take Over Flavor Flav’s Skanky-date Quest on VH1

R&B singer, Brandy’s brother and Kim Kardashian’s sex tape partner, Ray J will join the ranks of Flavor Flav, and Bret Michaels in his public search for temporary love and a career boost via VH1. His dating show will kick off sometime in 2009, and it should be interesting since he is significantly younger than both Flav and Bret. It should be entertaining to see how he handles the off-the-wall situations that he will certainly find himself in on the show.

According to VH1:

He may be one of the most infamous playboys in hip-hop, but he still hopes to find that special woman he can settle down with … and VH1 is going to help! The “Sexy Can I” singer is getting his own dating show in 2009, and producers are already looking for smart, attractive women over 21 who think they can handle the drama of celebrity life.

Ray J is looking for love!

Smells like a casting call is in the air, so if you want a shot at fame, and/or Ray J start working on that audition tape now.

Norwood is suing Kim and all her siblings for allegedly racking up over $120,000 in authorized charges on her credit card back when Kim worked as her personal assistant and Ray J’s co-star in 2006 and 2007. For the record, the Kardashians vehemently deny the charges. The case goes to court February 9, 2009.

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon Tie the Knot

Finally, after all the days of speculation all over the web, we apparently have the truth. Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon were married on Wednesday in the Bahamas. This marriage is as weird as the Lisa Marie/Nick Cage marriage, but far from being as weird as the Lisa Marie/Michael Jackson deal. I anticipate a union lasting as long as Pam Anderson’s last marriage.

Mariah 38, has been spending a lot of time hanging out on American Idol in recent weeks, reminding us all that she still exists, and letting Randy Jackson remind us incessantly that he has worked with her. Nick Cannon, 27, has done tv masterpieces like Wild ‘N Out and Nickelodeon’s The Nick Cannon Show.

Nick, who has been linked romantically in the past to Kim Kardashian, and Christina Milian, proposed publicly to Victoria’s Secret model Selita Eubanks on the Jumbotron at New York’s Time’s Square. They broke up a few months later. Mariah was married to record producer Tommy Mattola from 1993 to 1998.
