“Selfie Trailblazer” Kim Kardashian Compares Herself To Marilyn Monroe In New Book

Yeezy has really taught this chick how to have delusions of grandeur… Via TheHollywoodGossip : Kim Kardashian’s much-anticipated selfie book Selfish (get it?!) won’t hit shelves until April, but we’ve got the description for you right here and it.is.hilarious. Unintentionally, of course. But still. The reality star’s book features NEVER BEFORE SEEN self-portraits from her “her early beginnings as a wardrobe stylist,” Rizzoli publishing boasts. It will also present, in all their epic glory, “some of Kim’s favorite selfies in one volume … from her favorite throwback images to current ultra-sexy glam shots.” Knock us over with a feather. The book description also kompares the Kim Kardashian sex tape star to none other than Marilyn Monroe. Seriously. The two are totally on the same plane. She’s “one of the most recognizable and iconic celebrities in the world,” having catapulted herself into the upper echelon of Hollywood, the publisher notes. “Hailed by many (including Givenchy designer Riccardo Tisci) as the modern-day personification of Marilyn Monroe, Kim has become a true American icon.” Sure…she’s just like Marilyn. Minus appearances in over 30 movies, countless highly recognizable quotes, and identifiable talent in the entertainment industry. “A new mom to her daughter, North, and happily married to the rapper Kanye West, Kim Kardashian is on top of the world,” the intro hype continues. “This collection of hand-picked images from her personal archive is a tribute to her fans who have supported her through her very highly publicized journey.” Oh, and it gets better still. “With her curvaceous style, successful reality TV show Keeping Up with the Kardashians, DASH clothing store, makeup and perfume lines, she has acquired a massive fan following in the multi-millions.” “Through social media (Instagram, Twitter, and Facebook), Kim connects with her fans on a daily basis, sharing details of her life with her selfie photography.” “Widely regarded as a trailblazer of the ‘selfie movement’ (a modern-day self-portrait of the digital age) Kim has mastered the art of taking flattering and highly personal photos of oneself.” Through her hard work on Selfish, the teaser concludes, the 34-year-old “provides readers with a behind-the-scenes look into this larger-than-life star.” The only thing better? A book of Kim Kardashian nude photos. Oh wait, that already exists, and it’s free. It’s called the Internet. She’s been a trailblazer in that regard as well… Well we don’t know about her being an American icon and all that mess…but she is certainly a master of spin and an expert at getting to the money — regardless of how many people supposedly “hate” her. So…will you be copping her selfie book? Instagram

SMH: Two Tennessee Hoodboogers Arrested For Murdering Popular Pastor And Stealing His Car

Lawd! Tennessee Couple Arrested For Killing Popular Pastor Via The Grio reports: The family of a Memphis pastor found dead Saturday may finally have justice. The Prospect Park Missionary Baptist Church pastor, Don Smith, was discovered dead near a pond at Hickory Hill. His car was also missing. Police spotted the car on Wednesday and pulled over Lashonda Williams, 24, and Roger Reed Jr., 23. Warrants for first-degree murder were issued for both of them. Memphis Pastor Don Smith was shot and killed Saturday — and his family still doesn’t have any answers. Smith’s body was found lying on Hickory Hill, beside a pond, and he was pronounced dead at the scene. The family is still in shock. “All we know is right now he was murdered and we can’t find the person who did it,” said family member Raymond Jones. “We’re still trying to put pieces together of what actually happened…of what caused his death.” Smith, a pastor at Prospect Park Missionary Baptist Church in Whitehaven, spent all his time at the church or in the kitchen — warming souls with food and the Gospel. A wake will be held for Pastor Smith on Friday between 4 and 7 p.m., and the funeral will take place on November 8 at 11 a.m. at the Golden Gate Cathedral on Saturday. May God have mercy on their sick souls!
