The day before Thanksgiving, Khloe Kardashian made it clear on Twitter that she has at least one thing to be thankful for this year: The fact that the year is nearly coming to an end. In response to a follower on Wednesday (who said Khloe is “[hot] asf” and that 2015 was “good to her,” except for the whole “Lamar thing”), Khloe responded with an “lol” and the remark: “hands down worst year of my life.” It’s not hard to imagine why Kardashian would feel this way. On October 13, estranged husband Lamar Odom fell unconscious at a Las Vegas brothel, with reports later confirming the presence of drugs in his system. Odom was eventually moved to a Los Angeles hospital, where Khloe has been spending pretty much all of her time ever since. As a result of her care for him, Khloe developed a staph infection that forced her to cancel dates on her scheduled book signing tour. In February, meanwhile, Khloe and multiple relatives a car accident during a ski vacation, though no one was seriously hurt in the crash. Then, of course, there was the Caitlyn Jenner announcement. While Khloe has been very supportive of her stepfather’s transition, she has also admitted that it was challenging at first; that it felt as if she had lost someone close to her in Bruce Jenner. “It was difficult for me that Bruce wasn’t honest with me,” Khloe told Redbook. “The transition had nothing to do with it…I love Caitlyn. She still likes us to call her our dad, but it’s hard when, you know, Dad’s now wearing a dress.” Fortunately, after another follower asked Khloe how she was feeling on Twitter, she offered up some hope to all fans. “Better everyday,” Kardashian responded.

Yesterday, Kim Kardashian asked fans to pray for her , as she revealed that her baby is breech, which may complicate her delivery and force her to undergo an emergency C-section. It’s a frightening revelation, and Kim says that’s not the only complication she’s facing as she heads into the final weeks of her second pregnancy. Once again Kim’s placenta has grown into her uterine wall ; she’s suffering from pre-eclampsia; and the amount of stress she’s under is reportedly causing sleep and dietary issues. Naturally, millions have expressed their concerns on social media, but now, sources close to Kim are telling Radar Online that they believe she’s faking her health issues in order to drum up publicity. “Kim was just talking with a group of friends about her pregnancy and she said everything is going really well,” one source tells the website. “She didn’t say anything about a crisis pregnancy. Some people think she could be exaggerating the situation to the public for drama.” View Slideshow: Kim Kardashian Pregnant Pics: Big Bump! Even Bigger Boobs! One insider even went so far as to joke, “If she does get an early C-section it is because she doesn’t want to gain any more weight this time.” Hollywood OB/GYN Dr. Jim Betoni also spoke with Radar, and he says that while the risks seem real based on Kim’s descriptions, he’s confident that she’s receiving the best medical care – and both mother and son will be just fine. “She has risk factors but there are things that are now watched closer,” he says. “So at least you come in prepared.” Bottom line: Kim’s delivery may not be the smoothest on record, but you should spend this holiday weekend focused on the turkey in your oven, not the bun in hers.

43% Of Americans Have Negative Feelings Against Muslims How do you feel about Muslims and the Syrian refugee crisis? A new study shows that most Americans don’t feel positively about them according to MIC reports. Donald Trump has taken aim at a new group of immigrants to vilify: Syrian refugees. Since the terrorist attacks in Paris, Trump has ridden a wave of anti-Muslim rhetoric to widen his lead at the top of the polls. Responding to a reporter’s question last week, Trump said the country must consider “unthinkable” responses to prevent terrorism in the wake of the Paris attacks, including setting up databases to track all Muslims in the United States. Those comments came just days after he declared that the U.S. should consider spying on or shutting down mosques to prevent the “absolute hatred coming from these areas.” After a period of several weeks in which he saw his lead atop the Republican presidential field threatened, Trump is surging once again — this time with Muslims, not Mexicans, in his crosshairs. But portraying Trump as a manipulative villain with the power to substantially move public opinion misses a crucial point: Trump’s positions on refugees and the treatment of Muslims mirrors the views of a large segment of the American public. Repugnant as Trump’s anti-Muslim comments may be, it’s important to recognize the extent to which he’s a reflection of deeply racist and Islamophobic portions of the U.S. population. Check out the poll numbers below: • Fifty-six percent of Americans, including 8 in 10 Republicans, oppose accepting refugees fleeing Syria. • Three-quarters of Republicans and 56% of Americans overall say Islam is at odds with American values. • Forty-three percent of Americans admit to holding some feelings of prejudice against Muslims. • Over 80% of media coverage of Muslims is negative, with the majority focused on extremism.

Elisabeth Hasselbeck is going to need a few minutes, people. Can you talk amongst yourself for a little while? The 38-year old announced via statement on Monday that she’s leaving her post as a Fox & Friends panelist in December, saying at the time: “Oftentimes, the most difficult decisions are between two great things,” said the former View co-host. “Throughout my 14 years working in television, I have never experienced a more positive and thoughtful atmosphere than FOX News Channel.” The conservative television personality, who was also a castaway on Survivor back in the day, reiterated these points on air Tuesday. “Like I said, I much preferred and am honored to have had the role of bringing you the news rather than being it,” she said. “I have a ton of respect for you all here and you at home [and] I want to share with you what's been on my heart. “I am… taking a new position as CBO, Chief Breakfast Officer, at our house with the kids and that does mean that in about a month, I will be leaving my Fox News family.” Hasselbeck said that the time between now and her final show will be a “No Cry Zone,” but she couldn't stop the tears from flowing upon confirming this very sad news. In reference to her co-hosts, Steve Doocy and Brian Kilmeade, Hasselbeck shared: “It's hard because of all of you. You all have made this a really hard decision. I have fallen head over heels with this place.” Hasselbeck is the mother of three kids (Grace, 10, Taylor, 8, Isaiah, 6) and the husband of a former NFL quarterback. Watch her announce her departure and break down into tears now:
Dear Bossip, So, here’s the deal: I met this guy 2 weeks ago at a football party. He has text me non-stop, even text good morning and good night every day. Not to mention he text as soon as we get off work. I’m pretty sure he’s a player, but because I see the best in people I am not so good at being a judge of character. Ok, so he asked to come over one night but then when I told him he couldn’t spend the night he changed his mind. Then he proceeded to say maybe we can do dinner and a movie one night this week. I said ok. That night came. I asked him what we were going to do and he said a lot of cuddling and kissing. I reminded him that he mentioned dinner and movie. Then he said he would cook for me. After I let him know that he had to bring whatever he was cooking he decided he wasn’t about all that. So, he came over and we just hung out in my living room talking and watching TV. Then he invites me to his softball game, so I go. Then the following Friday night I finally let him sleep over. We had sex, which wasn’t that great actually. Then he came over the next night to a party I was hosting. He spent the night again but we didn’t have sex. The next day (Sunday) he decided that he didn’t know what he wanted anymore. He went from wanting to date and possibly a relationship to not knowing. However, he says he doesn’t want to end things completely. I mean seriously? Thank you for your time. What do I do now? – Holding Pattern Dear Ms. Holding Pattern , I think things are pretty cut and dry. He wants a steady booty call. He wants to make you one of his bed buddies. So, I’m not sure what you are missing or not clear about? I mean even Stevie Wonder can see this guy’s intentions. It’s not brain surgery or rocket science. He simply and only wants S-E-X! Here’s a memo for all of you out there: IF YOU MEET SOMEONE AND THEY ARE TEXTING AND CALLING YOU LIKE CRAZY, AND, THEY DESPERATELY AND EAGERLY WANT TO GET TOGETHER AND HANG OUT AT YOUR, OR THEIR HOUSE, AND NOT ANYTHING IN PUBLIC, THEN, UHM, THEY DON’T WANT ANYTHING SERIOUS WITH YOU. IT’S ALL ABOUT SEX. But, let’s address this topic of texting; you people and these textual relationships. Do people actually call or dial numbers to hear an actual voice any longer? How can you develop and create a relationship with someone via text? Someone please explain this to me. And, the sad part is that it’s not just the younger generation, but some of you grown ass folks who are participating in this behavior. What the hell?!?!?! But, I digress. And, another thing, when did dating become going to someone’s house, chilling, and the both of you know that you are horny asses, but you convince yourself that you have all this restraint and nothing is going to go down, but then guess what happens, you start kissing, fondling, and then panties come off and his drawers are off, and you write me saying, “It just happened.” SMDH! Dating is going out and observing someone’s behavior in public and interacting with other people. It’s about going to various places that you two have in common, or exploring new adventures together. It’s not going to someone’s house and sitting in the living room watching TV. Especially not on the first date. Ugh! I can’t with you people. But, you obviously found something you liked about him because your dumb ass kept entertaining him and his conversation. So, ask yourself why after several conversations and him being clear about what he wanted that you let him come over, have sex with him, and then get upset when he says he doesn’t know what he wants anymore, but that he doesn’t want things to end between the two of you? You left the door wide open (meaning your legs) with an invitation to your bedroom and bed, and now you want to clutch your cheap ass pearls and act like Ms. I Got Some Values And Morals And Self-Respect About Myself. LMBAO! I can’t do you today. So, to answer your question of what to do now? Uhm, hmmm, do you want to be his booty call? Do you want to be his jump-off? Do you, and can you, handle a casual sexual relationship with him? You did state that his sex game was not all that, but I’m certain you can teach him and train him on how to handle you and your cooty-cat. LOL! That man is not interested in anything more with you other than sex. He’s made that painfully and abundantly clear from the beginning. But, you, and like so many others don’t listen to when someone is telling you who they are and what they want. You figure if you can get them to see how holy and virtuous you are that they will succumb to your light and change their evil and trifling ways. Chile, miss me already. He wants sex. You don’t. He wants to be friends with benefits. You don’t. What he’s communicating and expressing is not in alignment and part of your desires. Therefore cut your losses, move on, and make a note that this was a lesson learned. Know from this point moving forward that you need to listen and hear when a man is telling you what he wants. If he keeps stressing sex, sexual encounters, sexual contact, intimacy, cuddling, hugging, lounging, caressing, massages, or anything that requires body contact, then he is not interested in being in a relationship. He wants sex. Now, get back on the saddle, and mosey along. I’m certain there is a man out there who wants a relationship and will respect you and your body. – Terrance Dean ***(Attention all media/news outlets, if you use this story and letter, or any parts of this content for your outlets you must give credit to this site, the columnist, and his advice)*** Hey Bossip Fam, what do you think?
