Kanye West and Kim Kardashian: True Romance or Desperate Stunt?
I’ll take ‘Desperate Stunt’ for $500, Alex.
Anyone with common sense can see that Kim Kardashian needs a miracle to save her reality TV career. Most of America has tuned out and dismissed the Kardashians as a family who will do anything for money and attention.
Just in time for the upcoming season of “Kourtney and Kim Take NY”, Kim, who has more tricks up her sleeve than magician Criss Angel, has pulled Kanye West out of her hat. And Kanye is more than happy to play the role of useful idiot to get in good with the Kardashian klan.
Even the most levelheaded Kardashian — Khloe — is playing along with Kim and Kanye’s publicity stunt.
Two narcissists in love? Not in a million years!
From US Weekly:
Stranger things have happened. A pal tells the new Us Weekly, out now, that Jay-Z’s close friend and collaborator West, 34, has fallen “genuinely head over heels” for Kardashian, 31, with whom he was photographed gallivanting around NYC late last week.
“It’s not a PR stunt,” the source insists of the rapper and reality star. “They’re perfect for each other. He thinks she’s his Beyonce!”
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West: 2 Narcissists in Love?
Not for one minute do I believe that Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are really dating. But the rumor does make for interesting blog fodder.
According to TMZ, Kim and Kanye were seen leaving a movie theater together in NYC yesterday. I guess that amounts to a romance in the celebrity world. But in the real world, their “date” is a mere publicity stunt contrived by two narcissists to grab headlines.
Coincidentally, their “date” occurred on the same day (at the very hour) that Kanye dropped a new, disjointed, uptempo tune called “Theraflu” — in which he proclaims his “love” for the self-obsessed reality star.
- And I’ll admit I fell in love with Kim
’Round the same time she fell in love with him.
Well that’s cool, baby girl, do your thing,
Lucky I ain’t had Jay drop him from the team.

Oprah Writes a Revealing Letter to Her Younger Self
It is difficult for a narcissist with her own media empire to admit failure. But Oprah Winfrey, 58, did just that on Monday when she told Katie Couric that she made a mistake launching her OWN Network.
Oprah, who ended her syndicated television show’s successful run at 25 years because a dying boy told her to, is struggling to accept defeat when she’s spent the last 25 years winning.
Therapists often advise their stressed out patients to communicate with their younger selves in order to comfort and nurture them. Embracing your inner child is a method that some therapists teach to their patients who are on the verge of nervous breakdowns because of their intense feelings of inadequacy.
So Oprah wrote a letter to herself back when she was the youngest and first black female television reporter at Nashville’s WLAC-TV.
“Dear beautiful, brown-skinned girl,” she begins in her letter which is published in this month’s issue of O magazine.
Medical Minute: Cutting and Self-Harming Behavior
Cutting is quite common among young adolescents, but the phenomenon is increasing among adults as well.
Cutting is defined as the most common form of self-injury. Cutters injure themselves with sharp or blunt instruments in order to feel physical pain which masks the internal, emotional pain they are feeling inside.
Most cutters are young females and teenage boys who suffer from depression or social anxiety. The cuts are usually superficial, just deep enough to draw blood, on areas such as the face, arms, chest, or abdomen.
Our culture’s current obsession with tattoos is also seen as a form of self-injury among the young. An example of a troubled celebrity who practices self-injury — disguised as self-expression — is singer Rihanna, who recently carved a crude cross into her neck (see photo above).
Brandon Marshall in trouble again for punching woman
NFL troublemaker Brandon Marshall is in hot water again, this time for punching a woman in the face outside a New York nightclub. According to Fox Sports, Marshall was at Marquee in Chelsea early Sunday when he got into an argument with a group of friends celebrating a birthday. Marshall reportedly punched the birthday girl, Christin Myles, 24, in the face after, his lawyer claims, a bottle was thrown at his wife.
Myles suffered a black eye. She later filed a police report naming Marshall as the perpetrator. But Marshall’s lawyer said the fight did not involve Marshall or his friends.
“While attempting to leave to avoid the melee [Marshall’s wife] was struck in the face by a thrown bottle. She suffered serious injury,” Harvey Steinberg said in a statement.
“While attempting to leave and take his wife to the hospital, the mayhem continued outside. Mr. Marshall is hoping to assist authorities in regards to this matter,” said Steinberg.
Marshall’s lawyer never denied that Marshall took a swing at Myles.
A few days after the fight, the Miami Dolphins unloaded Marshall in a trade to the Chicago Bears. The Bears front office claims not to know about the fight or the fact that Marshall is a loose cannon, who goes around punching women.
LaLa Anthony knows her man is cheating on her
Remember a while back when I promised to publish the La La Diaries and dish all of LaLa’s dirt? Well, word filtered back to my ears that LaLa was on the verge of a nervous breakdown. So I held off on publishes the diaries because I have a heart and I’m nice.
Well, it turns out that part of LaLa’s therapy was to face her husband Carmelo Anthony’s infidelities head on rather than continue to deny them, which was causing her a lot of stress.
So in the upcoming season of LaLa’s ‘Full Court Life,’ you will see her doing just that. In one episode, LaLa will finally break down and admit that she knows her husband has been cheating on her. But don’t say I told you because that’s not public knowledge yet.
In the ongoing full-court promotion to boost interest in her show, LaLa covers the April 2012 issue of Latina magazine. Inside, she discusses her internal struggles and coming to terms with ‘Melo’s cheating ways (she’s a work in progress).
LATINA: On how she and Carmelo have lasted 8 years
LALA: “It’s been 15 days since I’ve seen my husband. That’s a long time for us to go without seeing each other. But I went on this whirlwind of launching the makeup line and my husband’s a basketball player. It’s not like he can say, ‘Hey, I’m not playing in the game today, I’m going to meet up with my wife somewhere.’ We’ve been together for eight years and I think we’ve lasted this long because we give each other space. But there’s also that time where it can be too much space.”
Kim Kardashian adopting a baby
What does a narcissist do when she wants her narcissistic supply 24/7, but she can’t find a man who’s willing to get her pregnant? Answer: she adopts a baby.
According to OK! magazine’s cover story, on newsstands Thursday, Kim Kardashian, 31, has begun the process of adopting a baby as a single mother.
“Kim has always been very maternal,” an insider says. “Of the three sisters, she’s the one who’s been saying that she’s ready for kids the longest.”
“It’s all top secret, but the adoption is already underway,” a source explains. “Kim is ready. She’s made inquiries and gotten information. Now she just has to decide where she wants the baby to come from.”
If Kim is successful, and the adoption goes through, it will be another Hollywood baby whose sole purpose in life is to bring attention to it’s mother — Kim Kardashian, who isn’t capable of loving anyone but herself. How sad.
