Remember last weekend when the paparazzi caught troubled rapper Kanye West with his pants down around his thighs as he emerged from a chauffeured limo with bestie, Kim Kardashian? Well, Kim has an explanation for that.

From E! Online:

“He was getting out of the car and his belt got pulled by this hook on the car door and he was trying to pull it up quick and his belt was really heavy,” says Kim, Kanye’s frequent companion as of late, in an exclusive interview with E! News at E!’s upfronts presentation.

“It’s called a wardrobe malfunction,” sister Kourtney explains to her sibling.

“It was a wardrobe malfunction, but it wasn’t anything intentional,” Kim says. “It was not scandalous.”

Yeah, right, Kim. Are you sure it has nothing to do with the rumors that the show’s producers predict your fake relationship with Kanye is not going to be enough to save the upcoming season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians?
