Kendall Cakes got the young bull nose wide open… Poor lil Jaden Smith is feeling the pangs of puppy love over Kim Kardashian’s lil banger sister. Via NationalEnquirer reports : Jaden Smith, 14, has set his sights on an older woman – 17-year-old VOGUE cover girl KENDALL JENNER! Will Smith’s son was a guest at Kendall’s lavish birthday party at the Jenner/Kardashian family’s Calabasas, Calif., home on Nov. 11. And he brazenly held hands with the dark-haired reality starlet while they skated on an ice rink created out of the backyard pool for the event. “Jaden is HOPELESSLY INFATUATED with Kendall, despite their age difference and the fact that she towers over him,” disclosed an insider. “What Jaden lacks in height and age, he makes up for in confidence. “But Kendall isn’t interested. Although she thinks Jaden is adorable and a cool friend, that’s where it ends. She wouldn’t date him in a million years.” Still, Will and Jada Pinkett Smith’s “Karate Kid” star son impressed budding model Kendall’s “momager” Kris Jenner, who manages the Kardashian empire. “Kris is salivating over the thought of turning Kendall and Jaden into the family’s next power couple,” said the source. “But that’s not going to happen. “For starters, Kendall is just not that into him, and, besides, Will and Jada are totally against it. “They don’t want him tangled up with the scandal-plagued Kardashians.” Props to Will and Jada for not falling for the okey doke on this one. We might not always agree with their “partnership” approach to parenting but steering Jaden clear of getting caught up in the Kardashian trap is definitely the smart thing to do. Don’t want the young bull to end up making freaky flicks at fourteen. Peep the pics of Kendall from Miss Vogue that Kim posted on Twitter below: WENN/Instagram
Fame can be a good and bad thing. It can be good for the man who gets it, and bad for the woman who stands by his side through it all. While some women have been lucky to have their men stay committed to them as the spotlight gets brighter (think LeBron James and Savannah Brinson), others get distracted by all the good looking chicks throwing themselves at them and eff up.

She’s one lucky trampire ! Even getting it in with her MARRIED director won’t keep Kristen Stewart off the set of the new “Snow White And The Huntsman” flick. According to RadarOnline reports : As Kristen Stewart sulks down the red carpet promoting the final movie in the Twilight series, the actress has signed on to reprise her role in Snow White and the Huntsman, but director Rupert Sanders, who was caught making out with K-Stew in her car earlier this year, won’t be a part of the project, RadarOnline.com is exclusively reporting. “The script has already been written and production will begin late next year,” a source close to the situation tells Radar. “However, Rupert Sanders definitely won’t be a part of the project. Rupert didn’t want to be a part of it to begin with because he is desperately still trying to save his marriage. The search is still on for a new director.” As we previously reported, Stewart released a statement shortly after news broke of her affair with Sanders insisting that it was a “momentary indiscretion” but there were several reports that the affair lasted for “months.” The affair resulted in a dramatic bust-up of Stewart’s romance with her Twilight costar Robert Pattison, but after months apart, the pair has reconciled. Meanwhile, Kristen is panicking about her career prospects following filming of Snow White. “Kristen is extremely concerned about her acting career,” the insider says. “Other than the Snow White sequel she isn’t attached to any other projects. There are scripts coming in, but not as many good ones as she would like. It’s distressing to Kristen that Rob is attached to four separate movies over the next year-and-a-half. Even her Twilight co-stars, Taylor Lautner and Ashley Greene, are more in demand than ever, with both committed to two different movies each. Kristen just hopes that that the fallout over her relationship with Rupert doesn’t hurt her career.” SMH, she’s not getting any parts right now, but she ought to be thankful she still has a career or relationship at all!
Evelyn Addresses Fans Concerns Over Her Frozen Eggs BBW reality ratchetista Evelyn Lozada made more than a few mentions on the show about her plans to have another child in the near future and she originally planned to do so with her head-butting ex-hubby Chad Johnson. Now that Mr. and Mrs. Ochostinko are no more, her fans are wondering what she plans to do with her lil back burner babies. via Examiner In episode 3 of season 3 the coupled went to a fertility clinic to get answers that they needed concerning their options, and Chad gave up some sperm during their visit to the doctor’s office. Well, after Evelyn and Chad divorced the questions regarding Evelyn Lozada’s eggs were still around. Did Evelyn go through with the procedure to freeze her eggs? What will happen to the frozen eggs? Fans asked Evelyn if she planned on using Chad’s frozen babies, or if she was going to allow them “to go to waste.” Evelyn answered the question in her own special way during a tweet. “Chile, I may let them thangs get freezer burnt!” Evelyn tweeted. Given the way these two have been sending subliminals back and forth lately, we wouldn’t be surprised if Eve was keeping her frozen Chad Jrs on ice for a rainy day.
Earlier this year rumors swirled that Cassie let emo rapper Kid Cudi touch her in a special way. Apparently Diddy hasn’t forgotten. According to BOSSIP sources, Tuesday night Diddy and Cudi got into a nice little fight at Club Trousdale in Hollywood. “The club owner didn’t know that the two had beef over Cassie and decided to sit Diddy down next to Cudi,” the spy tells BOSSIP. “The two then exchanged some heated words to the point where the entire club was watching – creating a huge scene.” Well at least nobody got hurt. Except Cudi’s ego most likely. Maybe Kid Cudi should stop partying so hard and sober up and avoid the club scene. Because it seems Diddy has made it clear he runs NY and LA.

Dem Babies are lucky Daddy Nick Cannon is around! Cuz if it was up to Mommy Mimi they’d be carrying stinky loads. Via RadarOnline reports : Appearing on an upcoming episode of Anderson Live, husband and baby daddy, Nick Cannon, revealed that the 42-year-old American Idol judge somehow always seems to get out of diaper duty for their 18-month old twins, Monroe and Moroccan. “It’s a good time! Right now, the kids run the house. We are just running and chasing after them and then my wife is being the diva that she is. I am trying to keep up with them,” Cannon, 31, told Anderson Cooper and Jane Velez-Mitchell. When Anderson asked point-blank if the Glitter singer was “a big diaper changer” and “who changes the most?” her hubby laughed incredulously, “Me! I mean we all do it but for some reason I get that duty a little bit more. I am not scared of it. I go in, I put the gloves on,” he explained. “Real men change diapers!” added guest host Velez-Mitchell with a sympathetic giggle. Later in the interview, the comedian and rapper broached the touchy subject of his wife’s reported feud with reality co-host, Nicki Minaj. “I think it was what it was. A lot of theatrics and stuff,” said Nick. “I guess I was a little disappointed in the producers because that’s not what American Idol is about. I felt like they fed off of it a little bit. You know, people are always going to have disagreements and stuff. “Clearly you can see that they are a very intense judging panel but obviously everybody is interested in what the show is going to be about and my wife is the classiest and the strongest woman that I’ve ever met so she’s handling it the way she is supposed to handle it.” Does this make Nick more likable?
