Khloe Kardashian is in labor, people! This is not a drill: Khloe Kardashian is in labor! Wait, what's that? Khloe Kardashian went into labor many months ago? Back in April? And she now has a six-month baby girl at home? Oh. Despite this fact being very well known among all celebrity gossip followers, Keeping Up with the Kardashians will go back in time this Sunday night. The E! reality series will air an episode centered around Khloe being in the very final stages of her pregnancy. In the sneak peek featured here, we see a very panicked Kris Jenner telling daughters Kourtney and Kim to wrap up a video conference call because Khloe is about to give birth. And they really need to hurry the eff up! “I can’t wait one second!” Kris screamed at Kim, as she and Kourtney try to discreetly end the call. Kim then offers to join her mom on the private jet, but Kris can only kicking herself and say: “I knew we should have gone last night. I knew it!” Khloe, of course, is in Cleveland at this time. And the family is flying in to be by her side for the birth because she has just learned that Tristan Thompson cheated on her (A LOT!) and she isn't sure if she wants him in the delivery room or not. We also see Kim calling Khloe to ask if she's okay, and Khloe asking in return; “Should the contractions feel like period cramps?” Yes, Kim responds. Following last week's episode, a fan tweeted the following at Khloe: “I feel so bad Khloe had to go through what Tristan did while filming KUWTK. “If I'm not wrong, next episode will be insane. You're so strong to put that personal issue as part of the show, knowing millions of [people] will watch it. I wouldn't be able to do it.” And Khloe actually wrote back; “Sadly, it will. I signed up to show the the good and the bad, right? The bad is very hard to relive, but it's life.” Check out the intense clip here and then tune in to watch the full episode Sunday night on E!.

Back in September, rapper Mac Miller passed away from an overdose after years of battling addiction. Last night in Los Angeles, fans, loved ones, and colleagues from the music world gathered together to pay tribute to the late emcee. John Mayer, Travis Scott and Chance the Rapper were among the A-listers who performed, but one star was noticeably absent. Miller’s former girlfriend, Ariana Grande, opted out of participating in the evening’s festivities. On social media, some Miller fans were critical of Grande’s decision not to participate, with many pointing out that the concert was both an opportunity to pay tribute to the late musician and a fundraiser for arts education. Others took note of the fact that Grande paid tribute to Miller on Instagram, where she posed with his beloved dog while wearing a hoodie he designed himself: “She is still deeply grieving and chose to pay respect in her own way,” a source close to the situation tells Radar Online. “Ariana is now focusing her time and energy on her music and upcoming tour, which she is very excited about,” the insider adds. “It’s what Mac would want.” Miller and Grande broke up in May after more than two years of dating. There was no mention of either that relationship or Miller’s fatal substance abuse issues during the concert. On stage, artists paid tribute to Miller through music. Mayer performed a cover of Miller’s “Small Worlds” while Vince Staples and Anderson Paak both performed songs on which they collaborated with Miller. Between songs, friends spoke of their fondest memories of Miller, with Chance the Rapper offering one of the night’s most memorable moments: “Mac, thank you for so many different things,” the emcee said of his late friend. “Thank you for the music you made; thank you for the music that you provided other people with, for the opportunities that you provided me with, but overall, for the friendships that you built through your music and through your artistry.” Along with several other performers, Chance credited Miller with inspiring him as an artist and a performer, but most importantly as a human being.
