Kylie Jenner on Anxiety, Losing Friends: Nothing Can Stop My Destiny!

Kylie Jenner may be busy as a billionaire makeup mogul and a single mom, but she still knows how to clap back hard when she needs to. She also still knows how to open up to her social media fans and followers about her life and her feelings. In an emotional new post, Kylie is opening up about anxiety, losing friends, and living her entire life in the spotlight. Kylie Jenner shared this beautiful photo of her silhouette and of the breathtaking sunset over the water. “I’m proud of myself, my heart, and my strength,” Kylie affirms as her captions begin. She reflects upon how “growing up in the light with a million eyes on you just isn’t normal.” She’s right about that. “I’ve lost friends along the way,” Kylie admits. “And,” Kylie writes. “I’ve lost myself too sometimes.” She then talks about what she has done to stay grounded. “My first tattoo was ‘sanity,'” Kylie notes. She explains that she received it “to remind myself [every day] to keep it.” Makes sense to me. “I’ve struggled with anxiety my whole young adult life,” Kylie writes. Notably, her sister Kendall also grapples with debilitating anxiety. “And after my baby,” Kylie recalls. “i dealt with all the internal ups and downs.” She admits: “I felt like i had to find myself completely again.” “I keep a whole lot to myself,” Kylie is the first to admit. “But,” she explains to her fans and followers, she “just wanted to share.” We’re sure that they understand. “And,” Kylie expressed, she wanted to “let you know I’m human.” That is always good to remember. Contrary to what fans may see on television and social media, life isn’t all curvy photoshoots and small but expensive portions of fruit. “My life is not perfect,” Kylie makes it clear. Her mental health, her social life, her relationships with others … all of that can be positive or negative no matter how things look on Instagram. “And,” she notes. “What you see here on social media is just the surface.” Very true. Kylie has some powerful advice for her fans and followers. She asks them to “be gentle with yourself, move on, and let go.” Kylie reminds the world that “we are all capable of great things, worthy of love, and allowed to express ourselves.” That’s beautiful! She suggests that people try to “do more of what makes you happy.” “And,” Kylie continues, she suggests that people “Be unapologetic.” “Now is your season,” she affirms. (That sounds vaguely threatening, like a hunting season in an old cartoon , but she clearly means that it’s your time to shine) Kylie concludes: “We all have a magnificent destiny.” When it comes to Kylie speaking of losing friends, one name comes to everyone’s mind. “I think that this whole Jordyn situation needed to happen for a reason,” Kylie told Khloe. “For me, for her, for you, for everybody” “She was my security blanket,” Kylie confessed. “She lived with me, we did everything together.” “I just felt like, ‘Oh, I have Jordyn, I don’t need anything else,'” Kylie recalled. “I feel like there’s a part of me that needed to grow without her.” “Sometimes people are there for certain reasons at certain times in your life, and then not there for others,” she speculated. Well that’s an absolutely terrifying postmortum of a best friendship and a startling insight into Kylie’s utilitarian take on friendships, we suppose.

Colombian Dude Hides $34,000 Worth of Coke Under His Wig, Immediately Gets Busted

Move over, Scarface. Step aside, Escobar. There’s a new kingpin in town, and he’s … well, actually, he’s pretty terrible at his job, so you guys can probably just stay put. According to The New York Post , the man in the mugshots above was arrested at Barcelona’s international airport after police discovered half-kilo (1.1 pounds) under his wig. The Post article opens with “He had hell toupee,” and yes, we’re very angry they beat us to that joke. Police say it was easy to spot the “considerably nervous” man — who arrived on a flight from Bogotá at the end of June — due to the“disproportionate size” of his hairpiece. As part of “Operation Toupee,” the officers found a “perfectly sealed package taped to his head.” We’re not sure you need to give your operation a name when it basically consisted of spotting a guy with a bag-of-cocaine-shaped lump on his head and lifting up his wig to find — drumroll — a bag of cocaine. Although for all we know, this whole thing might have been a long time in the making. Some ambitious customs agent with a hunch might have been poking at people’s hairlines for months, just waiting for his theory to pan out. Spain is apparently one of the top spots for smuggling drugs into Europe, which may or may not have something to do with the fact that Ibiza is basically the party capital of the universe, and their cars run on pure MDMA there. “There is no limit to the inventiveness of drug traffickers trying to mock controls,” said a police spokesperson. Apparently, international police forces have gotten better at coordinating their efforts to put an end to transcontinental drug muling. Which may help explain why Lindsay Lohan’s Beach House  closed down. Just kidding, LiLo! Anyway, the 65-year-old (!!!) smuggler has not yet been identified and there’s no word yet on what sort of  Frankly, we’re hoping he gets off just so we can invite him to a party. He’s got a hell of an interesting story to tell, and there’s a chance he’ll show up with a pound of booger sugar for a hat.

Meet the Boss Ladies Behind the First Ever ComplexCon Chicago and ComplexCon Community Week

Read the original here:

Source: Complex / Complex Since its inception three-years ago, Complex Network’s annual ComplexCon has become a leading celebration of our culture and our community. Spearheaded in Long Beach, California, ComplexCon is Complex’s “world fair of youth culture” and is known for bringing thousands of sneaker heads, change makers, community leaders, artists, fashion gurus, entertainers and celebrities together for two-days of music, art, discussion, entertainment and culture. Now, the annual festival is making its way across the country for the first time ever and introducing the Windy City (and the nation) to ComplexCon Chicago in what appears to be the network’s biggest event yet. Executive Producer Isis Arias Clermont promises that the inaugural ComplexCon Chicago will be unlike any other. “It’s different than traditional festivals that are more focused on music and art,” Clermont explained. “It’s really bringing the ‘URL to IRL’. The experience includes retail and shopping opportunities with cool brands, music performances (which are the energetic part of the show) and Complex Current which is a format of our panels and fireside chats with talent that speak to different topics that our audience is interested in.” One of the ways Chicago will differ from Long Beach is through the introduction of the first ever ComplexCon Community Week which is a weeklong series of community driven events meant to provide resources to cities (like Chicago) that birthed Complex Culture. Led by Complex’s Director of Community Outreach, Nicole Russell , ComplexCon Community Week will kick off on Monday, July 15th and conclude on Friday, July 19 th , right before ComplexCon officially begins. “It was really important to use this platform to inspire the people watching us to do more for the community – not just in the spaces where ComplexCon will be hosted but in their own,” Russell said. “We’re really trying to make sure we’re bringing awareness to different organizations but also showing everyone that’s tuning in how they can get involved and stand up for the causes that matter to them.” ComplexCon Community Week will consist of a variety of events such as a Soup Kitchen Takeover in partnership with Jaden Smith, a STREETWEAR.EDU panel discussion hosted by Trinidad James and a small Chicago-style block party for A Night Out Against Gun Violence, an event that Russell believes will help shine a light on some of the initiatives that the Chicago based Save Money, Save Life Foundation already supports. “It’s really just about bringing awareness to the people that are here [in Chicago] and showing them how they can show up and support one another,” Russell explained. “I think when you’re looking at the news and you’re seeing all of these things happening, all these challenges in your own community, everyone wants to know how they can help and what can they do. Not everyone has those tools to just fix, or not everyone knows what to do to inspire the change. We wanted to use this platform at Community Week to provide that information.” As Community Week kicks off and ComplexCon Chicago grows closer, Clermont and Russell appear to be tackling everything with ease. These ladies are leading the charge on one of the biggest events for our culture in a male dominated industry– and are killing it. “I think this has been an incredible opportunity,” Clermont said. “Everything comes with its own challenges and I think for us to be in the positions that we’re in, have the ability to have a voice in the room and really help lead these things has been great.” In spite of the challenges that come with pulling off any successful event, the ladies both agree that working with such an amazing female-led ComplexCon team has been quite rewarding and inspiring. “It’s really cool to be on such a dynamic team of fearless women,” Russell said. “There’s a lot of pressure, especially in a new role where were creative something for the very first time, but there’s support here. And its support coming from other women, which is great. So, it makes my job easier.” With three successful ComplexCons already in the books, introducing the annual culture staple to the city of Chicago is right on time, as Clermont believes that Chicago’s culture is exactly what embodies the Complex brand. “We definitely feel that Chicago is a city that’s culturally important to us. They have a strong audience that is interested in the things that we’re putting together such as hip-hop, streetwear and sneaker culture.” Clermont also assured us that Chi-Town is definitely in for a treat this weekend as the ComplexCon Chicago team has a ton of surprises up their sleeves for the first ever event. “We’ve got a lot of surprises on the ground,” Clermont said. “It’s one of those things that you just have to be there for. You never know who you’ll run into on the floor.” For more on ComplexCon Community Week and ComplexCon Chicago, visit: https://www.complexcon.com/

Thomas Ravenel: Kathryn Dennis and Nanny Dawn Conspired to Ruin My LIFE!

Last week, the world learned that disgraced former Southern Charm star Thomas Ravenel hired a private invesgiator to stalk Kathryn Dennis for months . Now, he’s accusing her of conspiring with Nanny Dawn Ledwell, who has accused him of rape, before either of them came forward. Thomas even claims to have their messaging history with which to prove it. According to court documents obtained by The Blast , Thomas is doubling down on an old conspiracy theory. He alleges that Kathryn Dennis’ decision to file for full custody of 5-year-old Kensie and 3-year-old Saint is just a publicity stunt for her reality career. (It’s funny how as soon as he was no longer welcome on the show, he suddenly treated Southern Charm as his enemy) For months, now, Thomas has insisted in court that Kathryn and Bravo cooked up this custody war to give her a new storyline. Now, he’s adding another piece to that mix — the allegation that Kathryn also sonspired with Nanny Dawn Ledwell. And Thomas claims to have the phone records to prove it. “The more information uncovered about Kathryn’s actitivies, the more Kathryn was found to be connected to Dawn,” Thomas reports. “On Sunday, May 6, 2018, I requested that Kathryn submit to a drug test in anticipation of our coming mediation,” he recalls. The mediation was “to discuss changes in her visitation and child support.” “I needed to know she was drug free to offer her more time,” Thomas explains. “The very next day …. The day I ‘made’ Kathryn submit to a drug test,” he remarks. “Dawn went to the police and filed a criminal complaint against me.” Thomas tells the court that Nanny Dawn Ledwell spoke to Kathryn twice the day she went to see the police. He does at least acknowledge that he was aware that she accused of a brutal sexual assault in 2015. Kathryn on this same day, apparently Kathryn called a producer — which may have happened for any number of reasons. Most interestingly, Thomas claims that Kathryn paid a law firm $20,000 from the day Dawn filed with the police, before the information was even  public. It’s clear that he wants the court to conclude that Kathryn, Ledwell, and Bravo are all in cahoots — to try to ruin his life. Some of Thomas’ in-court arguments sound a little odd. First of all, it is extremely normal for a mother and her child’s former nanny to stay in touch in some capacity. Considering what Dawn had seen from inside of Kathryn’s home, they may have felt closer to each other through their shared experiences with Thomas. Dawn may have been giving Kathryn a head’s up that she was finally going to police. Thomas might like the idea of it being some elaborate lie, but he’ll stand trial for rape because Dawn told her truth. Thomas is hoping to once again expose the public to his preferred narrative. He thinks that Kathryn is seeking custody because she wants reality TV cred, not to get them out of the house of an alleged rapistt who may soon go to prison. But repeating his version of what happened in court documents, he may hope to repeat the story long enough to sway public opinion. Why is that? Maybe the dude just likes to be liked. But, at thse risk of sounding like conspiracy theorists, one could almost wonder if Thomas is doing a practice run for his rape trial. Perhaps Thomas some some underlying evidence that Dawn, Kathryn, or even Bravo discussed further details or concocted the scheme he describes. If so … we would like to see it. We’re always open to learning new facts of a case. In the mean time, it sounds like wasted hot air from a man desperate to keep his reputation afloat before his upcoming criminal trial.

Kylie Jenner: Sofia Richie’s My New BFF & I Can Prove it With Nude Pics!

It’s been three months since Jordyn Woods was caught hooking up with Tristan Thompson , but it seems Kylie Jenner still hasn’t forgiven her former bestie for betraying Khloe Kardashian. In fact, Kylie has apparently taken the next step by replacing her banished bestie and flaunting her new friendship on social media. Kylie is currently in Turks & Caicos on what appears to be a working vacation. The primary objectives on the trip seem to be trying on a lot of different swimsuits and taking selfies, but in Kylie’s world, that’s a business excursion. She and her squad even traveled to the island nation in a customized private jet advertising her new skincare line. It’s good to be friends with the world’s youngest “self-made” billionaire — and the latest beneficiary of Kylie’s generosity is none other than Scott Disick’s girlfriend, Sofia Richie. Yes, it may seem a little odd that Kylie kicked one of her friends to the curb for banging her sister’s baby daddy and then became best friends with a chick who’s banging her other sister’s baby daddy. But Sofia and Scott have been upfront about their relationship from the start, and they didn’t get started until well after Dicsick’s relationship with Kourtney Kardashian came to an end. So Kylie’s code of ethics may be a little hazy, but it seems that she stands by it. And she’s been happily flaunting her new friendship by posting pics with Sofia and praising the model’s latest nudes: “It’s only girls and close friends of Kylie’s. She invited Sofia because she finds her very sweet,” a source tells People about the trip. “Kylie gets along great with her. The whole family has accepted Sofia.” The insider adds that Kylie and Sofia’s friendship grew out of the aftermath of her falling out with Jordyn and has served as an unlikely silver lining. “As sad as the Jordyn situation has been for Kylie, she has also been forced to make new friendships,” the source tells People. “Some of the girls on her trip, used to be more like acquaintances, but they are now great friends.” A different insider recently revealed to Us Weekly that Kylie and Jordyn’s “relationship is on the road to recovery.” Unfortunately for Woods, it seems that’s a mighty long road. And when she gets to the end of it, she may be surprised to find that Sofia has taken her place. View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian GOES OFF on Jordyn Woods, Trashes Ex-Friend as Total Liar

Tori Roloff Ends the Internet with Cutest Baby Bump Photos in History

Tori Roloff is getting a lot of questions about her daughter these days. But the Little People, Big World star just stopped the Internet in its tracks by sharing a handful of photos of herself and her son. Just take a look at one of them for yourself right now: Has anything ever been more precious and adorable anywhere in the whole entire world?!? We’ll go ahead and answer that question for you: No. Roloff is expecting her second child with husband Zach and has been keeping fans apprised of her status and her feelings for several weeks now.  The TLC personality recently said the baby bump featured above and below is growing faster than the one she had with Jackson and that she’s feeling a little self-conscious about it these days. Thankfully, however, as a caption to these cute images, Tori told followers that she’s in better spirts at the moment, partially because she is simply feeling better as a pregnant person. “I am currently 20 weeks!” Roloff wrote excitedly to open her revealing message, adding in further detail: I’m feeling a lot better now than I did in my 1st trimester.  My belly button never returned after Jackson and is becoming even less visible now. I don’t really have cravings. Other than gummy bears (but honestly I love them with or without being preggo). I don’t think Jackson “gets it” but he loves checking his belly for baby. Tori is due in November and, no, she and Zach have decided NOT to find out whether their baby girl will be a dwarf or not. They’ll discover whether their daughter has the condition known as “achondroplasia” — which effects both her dad and paternal grandparents — when she is born later this year. “Baby girl is the size of a banana. Which is so fitting because Jackson is obsessed with bananas,” added Tori, which explained the photo immediately above. After previously being open enough to admit that she was feeling crappy about her body of late, Roloff went on to show gratitude here to anyone who reached out to her about this common insecurity. “I also wanted to say thank you to everyone who comment and messaged me about my post on self image. You all are so fricking sweet,” she added, concluding as follows: “I wasn’t looking for affirmation but y’all seriously gave it to me. That’s honestly what gives me confidence to post this. “I’m trying to love the heck out of my body because dang it I’m proud to grow this baby girl.” Amen, Tori. And also: Good for you! The veteran reality star has amassed over one million Instagram followers by simply being candid and generous with both her time and her endearing Jackson photos. “We are so excited to announce that Jackson is going to be a big brother!” she and Zach confirmed in mid-May, adding to the great enthusiasm of their supporters: “We can not wait to meet our sweet baby girl!
