Meghan Markle is a Huge LIAR, Alleges You-Know-Who

Posted on October 25, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

So much for the truce between Samantha Markle and Meghan Markle. This may come as a shock to anyone that has been following the (one-sided) dispute between these half-siblings, but Samantha has gone ahead and once again called the Duchess of Sussex out. In very harsh fashion. Just a week ago, Samantha was saying nice things about Meghan. No, it’s true! After learning that Markle and Prince Harry were expecting their first child, Samantha claimed she was willing to put the past behind her and happy to look toward the future. “Everybody just needs to shut the heck up and let this be a great thing for them, for the world, for the family and that’s where I’m at,” Samantha told DailyMailTV , adding at the time: “It’s so important that everybody put their egos aside. Meghan’s done some things with my dad, but in my heart, I love her and I want her and the baby to do well.” Nice sentiment, right? To borrow a term used by folks in Meghan’s new homeland, however, it was also total rubbish. View Slideshow: Meghan Markle: 19 Cruelest Things Her Own Family Has Said About the Duchess On Wednesday, Meghan gave a speech at the University of the South Pacific in Fiji as part of her ongoing tour with her husband and her impending child. “As a university graduate, I know the personal feeling of pride and excitement that comes with attending university,” Meghan began her speech. Simple enough, no? “From the moment you receive your acceptance letter, to the exams you spend countless late nights studying for, the lifelong friendships you make with your fellow alumni, and the moment you receive your diploma,” Meghan continued. “The journey of higher education is an incredible, impactful and pivotal one.” Added the Duchess, apparently angering Samantha to a serious extent: “I am also fully aware of the challenges of being able to afford this level of schooling for many people around the world – myself included. “It was through scholarships, financial aid programmes and work-study where my earnings from a job on campus went directly towards my tuition – that I was able to attend university. “And, without question, it was worth every effort.” In response to Meghan’s speech, Samantha went off on Twitter about what she says is Meghan’s true educational background, writing: “Our father paid for all of her education! This speech is not true.” Stop the enabling!” Samantha also Tweeted. “Do not ever reward a lie it does not matter how fluffy it is! It is wrong and there is no force on the planet that will take this away from my father. She should inspire women with the truth and with gratitude! “Roll [sic] model thankfullness and truth, not lies.” Harry and Meghan are currently on their first royal tour as a married couple. The stars will wrap up the tour next week in New Zealand — and we’re guessing they don’t address Samantha’s latest comments. Why justify them with a reply, right? They haven’t done so in the past, not even when Samantha basically said Meghan was a puppy killer . We’re pretty sure she wouldn’t do that. And we’re also sure she’ll makea great mother. And we’re absolutely sure that Samantha Markle sucks.

James Karen, Actor You Know From Everything, Dies at 94

Posted on October 24, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

James Karen, a veteran actor with an extensive big screen resume, passed away this week at his home in Florida, according to multuple outlets. He was 94 years old. Karen died with over 200 movies to his credit, but he’s probably best known for his role as the developer Mr. Teague in the modern horror classic Poltergeist. The long-time star also appeared in Return of the Living Dead, Invaders from Mars, China Syndrome, and Wall Street — among MANY other films. One of the best known character actors of all-time, Karen once joked that nobody knew his name, yet everybody knew his face because he “did so much damn work.” Actually, he may not have been joking about that. Mostly known for his work in the movie world, Karen also played a key part on the finale of Little House on the Prairie and he worked with director Oliver Stone on three occasions: 1. As Lynch, the office manager at Jackson Steinem, where Charlie Sheen’s stockbroker character works, in Wall Street. 2. As Secretary of State William Rogers in Nixon. 2. As a Miami Sharks executive in Any Given Sunday. Karen was born in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania and served in the United States Air Force during World War II. Following a stint on Broadway, Karen moved to the land of television when he starred as Dr. Burke on As the World Turns and was the original Lincoln Tyler on All My Children. Along with starring in thousands of commercials, Karen also worked as the TV and radio spokesman (“Why pay more?”) for Pathmark, an East Coast supermarket chain that was liquidated in 2015. On the personal front: Karen was married to the late Susan Reed, the beloved folk singer and zither player, from 1958 until their divorce in 1967. The couple shared a son named Reed, whose godfather is the legendary Buster Keaton, a very close friend of Karen’s throughout his adult life. In the horror genre, other notable movies in which Karen played a part include: Frankenstein Meets the Space Monster, Poltergeist, Invaders from Mars, The Willies, The Unborn, Piranha, Apt Pupil and Mulholland Drive. And other television roles include: Seinfeld, The Larry Sanders Show, Dallas, The Golden Girls, L.A. Law, Murphy Brown and The Waltons. In the cult classic The Return of the Living Dead, Karen starred as the manager of a medical warehouse who inadvertently releases a gas that re-animates the dead. He said it was the most fun he ever had in making a movie, saying in 2006 that he had some say in how the character died: “It was the deal where he figures out he’s becoming a zombie and decides to incinerate himself in the crematorium. “He kisses his wedding ring as he goes in. It was a very emotional scene, but it also got me out of being one of the rain-drenched zombies milling around outside the place at the end of the film. “I didn’t really want to do all that muddy stuff.” The Hollywood Reporter first confirmed Karen’s death. May he rest in peace. View Slideshow: Celebrities Who Died in 2018: In Memoriam

Megyn Kelly Walks Back Idiotic Defense of Blackface

Posted on October 24, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Megyn Kelly would like a mulligan. On Tuesday morning, the former Fox News host reminded NBC viewers where she used to work by sitting around with a few panelists and making a passionate defense for… … the use of blackface on Halloween? Yes. According to our records, this really was the random and racist hill on which Kelly decided to die for some reason. During the controversial segment on Tuesday, Kelly said it was perfectly alright when she was growing up for white people to dress up as black characters on October 31, speaking out against the Politically Correct Police these days who frown on such a thing. She used a really specific example to drive home her point, too. Back in April, an episode of The Real Housewives of New York featured cast member Luann de Lesseps going out for Halloween as Diana Ross . She received backlash for the outfit and then she apologized. Simple and understandable enough, right? Not to Megyn Kelly! “But what is racist?” Kelly asked, digging herself a deep grave by expounding as follows: “Because you do get in trouble if you are a white person who puts on blackface on Halloween, or a black person who puts on whiteface for Halloween. “Back when I was a kid that was OK, as long as you were dressing up as, like, a character.” We’re pretty sure that last sentence is demonstrably false; there just wasn’t social media back in the day over which folks could voice their concerns about these types of costumes. After earning immediate flak from basically everyone with a pulse, Kelly issued an apology on Tuesday evening. Written as an internal note, a copy of which was provided by a spokesperson for NBC via Twitter, Kelly said the following: One of the wonderful things about my job is that I get the chance to express and hear a lot of opinions. T oday is one of those days where listening carefully to other points of view, including from friends and colleagues, is leading me to rethink my own views. Continued Kelly: When we had the roundtable discussion earlier today about the controversy of making your face look like a different race as part of a Halloween costume, I suggested that this seemed okay if done as part of this holiday where people have the chance to make themselves look like others. The iconic Diana Ross came up as an example. To me, I thought, why would it be controversial for someone dressing up as Diana Ross to make herself look like this amazing woman as a way of honoring and respecting her? I realize now that such behavior is indeed wrong, and I am sorry. The history of blackface in our culture is abhorrent; the wounds too deep. Yes, exactly. Kelly prides herself as a journalist and yet somehow didn’t realize previously that blackface — which was used in the late 19th century and early 20th century by white theater performers to mock and stereotype African-Americans – has an offensive history?!? Come on, Megs. As Melania Trump might say, try to be be better, okay? Try not to make it so clear that you want back on Fox News and are happy to show executives there while you still belong. Go ahead and search social media for the best responses to this scandal, but we’ll go with Top Chef Padma Lakshmi and her Tweet. This is what she wrote: “I cannot believe the ignorance on this in 2018. You are on national television. “You have a responsibility to educate yourself on social issues @megynkelly. This is so damaging.” Once aganin: Yes, exactly.

Meghan Markle Reveals Baby Gender… According to Twitter

Posted on October 23, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Meghan Markle and Prince Harry are having a baby. You probably already knew this. But the public does NOT yet know whether the Royals are expecting a boy or a girl. This information was not included in the official statement by Kensington Palace that confirmed the major news. However, a handful of astute (and/or possibly misguided) Internet users think they have cracked the gender code. They think Markle revealed the sex of her impending child via the color of the dress she wore for a state dinner in Fiji. No, really. They think this. Scroll down to see the gown in question, along with these excited responses to it… 1. Wearing Blue Meghan Markle is in Fiji for this photo, showing off her baby bump in a lovely blue gown that has some folks wondering if she’s having a boy. 2. WHAT DOES THIS MEAN?!? Internet users really are convinced that Markle is wearing this color dress as a way to tell the world the gender of her impending child. 3. Boom! It’s a Boy! Why else would Markle wear blue, right?!? 4. She’s Carrying a Boy! That’s it. Twitter is convinced. 5. Yes. We All Know This… … but we’re here to blindly guess the gender, okay?!? 6. Here’s the Thing, Though: Markle and her famous husband were attendinga reception and State Dinner hosted by Jioji Konrote, the President of Fiji. This marked the latest stop on the couple’s tour of the Commonwealth — and it would have been a very odd time to announce a gender in such passive fashion. View Slideshow

Caitlyn Jenner Halloween Costume: Harmless or Horrible?

Posted on October 23, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

For the second time in just a few years, controversy has erupted over the selling of a Caitlyn Jenner Halloween costume. Back in 2015, shortly after the ex-reality star fully revealed herself to be transgender, folks were given the option of going out in the dress Caitlyn wore to make this groundbreaking announcement. At the time, the costume came with a sash that read “Call Me Caitlyn.” A debate quickly ensued over whether this was a harmless bit of fun… … or if the costume was using Jenner’s lifestyle as a source of mockery. For whatever it was worth back then, Caitlyn said she did NOT find the costume to be offensive . Now, however, she may need to issue a new statement in regard to a new Halloween get-up. A new Caitlyn Jenner costume has hit the market, this one taking potential customers back to the days during which Jenner was known as “Bruce” and was considered, literally, as the greatest athlete in the world. Bruce Jenner was the gold medal in the decathlon at the 1976 Olympics. As you can see above and below, this costume comes replete with a decathlete’s jersey (with Bruce’s number 935); a gold medal; and a pair of teeny tiny shorts. It also comes with a wig. Because Jenner identifies as a woman now… get it? HILARIOUS! Really, jusy so very witty, isn’t it? eBay originally sold the outfit for $44.95 prior to removing the item from its collection. But it remains available on Amazon and on the website for Costume Agent, which is the company responsible for this idea. A rep tells TMZ that the organization has no plans to remove the costume from its inventory; not as long as it continues to sell well. “It’s a costume. It’s funny,” says this rep. However, someone from the charity Stonewall – which fights for the rights of members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community in the United Kingdom – says differently. “This is a reminder of how much is left to do to combat the abuse trans people face every day,” explains this rep, adding: “This costume reduces a marginalised group to the butt of a joke. It should be taken off the shelves.” This seems like a reasonable point of view in our opinion. Then again, it also seems reasonable to let someone buy the costume and then mock the heck out of them on Halloween. For being insensitive? Yes. But also for being boring and unoriginal. Who purchase a Caitlyn Jenner transgender costume and thinks it’s remotely creative in the year 2018?!?

Jenelle Evans Uses Pumpkin Patch Pics to Distract From 911 Scandal

Posted on October 23, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Jenelle Evans, her husband, David Eason, and her mom, Barbara Evans took at least a couple of Jennelle's kids to a pumpkin patch on Sunday. It's a pretty normal activity for the second half of October. It's seasonally appropriate. The pictures that you're about to see of Jenelle's children, Jace and Ensley, playing among the pumpkins are adorable. But this visit to a pumpkin patch comes just one week after Jenelle Evans was rushed to the hospital following a shocking 911 call . In the chilling call to emergency services, Jenelle revealed that she sustained injuries following a physical attack by her husband. Now, she's insisting that everything is fine — and wants these photos to help you forget all about that scandal. 1. David Eason posted a lot of the photos Jenelle deleted her Twitter to “take a break” from social media, but they’re both still showing you the side of their family that they WANT you to see on Instagram. 2. Focus on the pumpkins, not the abuse scandal There was no sign of Kaiser in these photos. 3. Say what you will about Jenelle, but she makes some cute kids It was admittedly sweet to see Jace and Ensley get to spend time together in a safe environment 4. Ensley is getting to be a handful Ever held a small child when they’re through being held? It’s not as easy as it sounds 5. Barbara was in on the whole visit We wonder if she knew that these photos would be used as a smokescreen to distract from Jenelle’s recent 911 call 6. Ensley is genuinely cute, folks But not all of Jenelle’s followers were so easily distracted … View Slideshow

The Real Housewives of Orange County Recap: Shannon Beador Flips Out

Posted on October 23, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Shannon Beador has been battling to stay in control of her emotions throughout the most recent season of The Real Housewives of Orange County.  With a messy divorce dragging her down, she’s been taking it out on her friends, and things went nuclear on Monday’s episode of the Bravo hit thanks to claims that her attitude, well, stinks.  When the episode got underway, the ladies were still in Jamaica, and Gina Kirschenheiter was still going on about how Beador did not give their friendship a chance.  If you watch The Real Housewives of Orange County online , you know that Shannon has been distant from the new additions to the cast, and despite their best efforts to make friends with her, she’s shut them down at every turn.  Tamra Judge, Vicki Gunvalson, Kelly Dodd, and Emily Simpson started to chat about Shannon’s wellbeing in her company, and things quickly got heated.  “Are you serious? So we’re going to do a goddamn f—— straight-jacket intervention right now? Are you kidding me?” Beador yelled in her defense after being accused of turning to alcohol to cope with everything that’s going on.  “I feel blindsided,” a clearly irate Beador complained as she tried to get away from the situation, and she did not want to be filmed. “I just need a minute. Stop, I mean it. Stop following me, I swear to God, I will take the mic off. You guys need to stop. … I need a minute, and I deserve it,” she continued to yell.  As we’ve reported on several times, Judge felt like Shannon was neglecting her friendships as she has become absorbed by all the things going in her personal life.  “I love Shannon, but the constant negativity and dwelling on things that really don’t matter is tiresome to me,” Judge explained in a confessional, adding: “We all have a hard time when we’re getting divorced. We all have outbursts, I did. But it’s been six months. She can’t keep treating people badly because she’s getting divorced.” “This has been months of buildup. She wants to bitch and complain all the time and not fix anything,” Judge continued. “In her head, she’s the busiest person in the world, and she doesn’t get it. She’s never worked. David took care of everything. … She cries every single night. … I’m legit 100 percent worried about her.” Always one to throw in her two cents, Vicki was there to stick the knife into her pal.  “That was a big red flag for me … it just masks the pain,” Gunvalson stated when the others claimed she was using alcohol to mask her pain. “I think she needs us. … She should get on something because sometimes you can’t handle your feelings,” she continued. “When Don and I were going through our separation and divorce, I did go on an anti-depressant because I couldn’t function, I was crying so much. It got me through the bumps.” “It’s depression, she’s depressed,” added Dodd. “David must have been kind of a saint to stay up with that. She’s a good girl, and I think the world of her. But to have to deal with that day in and day out? It’s got to be draining,” she continued. “I only have to deal with Shannon on a friendship level. I couldn’t imagine being married to that and having to live with that every single day. It affects everybody.” When Tamra and Shannon actually got to chat about how they felt, Shannon was not willing to accept what happened.  “I am so beyond hurt, Tamra,” Beador admitted after hearing that Gina and her friend were talking smack about her. “I drop everything to answer the phone. … I’m a kind friend, and I always want to help,” Shannon said in defense of her actions. “You have no idea what I go through on a daily basis; I don’t even share half the s— with you. Half.” “I hurt. I’m sensitive,” she said. “But I’m excited about my life, and I’ve let you guys know that, so don’t sit there and say I’m goddamn crying every night, ’cause I’m not.” Dodd chimed in, telling her friend to go on medication to help her, but that caused even more problems.  “I’m not going on medication! I’m not doing it,” she shouted. “I am entitled to feel what I’ve been feeling. I’m entitled to feel my pain. … I am who I am, and I’m going through a lot of pain.”  “And I get it; everybody’s going through a lot of pain. …[But] stop acting like I’m some goddamn mental case.” But Judge was not prepared to listen anymore. There’s only so many times you can try help someone who does not want to accept there’s something wrong.  “Then cry every night, I don’t care anymore because nobody can help you,” Judge shrieked. “You don’t want to take any help. I’m trying to help you. Just listen. Stop screaming for one f—— time in your life and listen. Listen! You won’t listen!” “I can’t do this anymore,” Judge yelled at Beador. “You want to be sad your whole life, be sad your whole life. You don’t want any help, don’t get any help. I don’t give a s— anymore. … Nobody can help you. Nobody can give you any criticism. I’m trying to help you.” That was enough for Beador to realize the trip was a bust and she was done trying with the ladies, so she disappeared.  “There’s nothing worse than to feel abandoned and hurt by your friends,” said a deeply concerned Vicki. “I want Shannon to know that I love her and that I’m there for her and she’s going to get through this.” Who knew Vicki was so friendly? But Gina did not seem to care about Shannon at all.  “Why do we feel sad for Shannon?” she asked. “She’s got a lot of money. She’s got business deals. She’s got best friends. Okay, you’re 10 lbs. Overweight. Get over it; you’re not bed-ridden!” What are your thoughts on the big blow up? Hit the comments below.  RHOC continues Monday on Bravo.  View Slideshow: The Real Housewives of Orange County Premiere Just Gave Us So Much More Hope For Season 13

Luis Mendez: 90 Day Fiance Star Gets Married Again; Molly Hopkins Reacts on IG Live

Posted on October 23, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

After a tumultuous relationship, 90 Day Fiance stars Luis Mendez and Molly Hopkins got a divorce earlier this year. Now, wedding photos have surfaced and Luis has confirmed that he has remarried. Molly also saw those photos, and she has a lot to say about it. Earlier this year, Luis Mendez and Molly Hopkins finalized their divorce. It was May 4, in fact — Star Wars Day. Now, just over five months later, Luis has not only moved on — he has gotten married. No, he didn’t get back with Molly. Yes, Luis has confirmed that he tied the knot (again). And also yes, there are photos, courtesy of the Instagram account @90dayfiance_. Luis spoke to In Touch to confirm things. “Yes, I did get married,” Luis affirms. “That was my wedding [on] Sept. 19,” he says. There, he is referring to some earlier and much vaguer photos of him wearing a tux at what people had assumed was a friend’s wedding. “I love this girl so much,” Luis gushes. “She is so amazing.” That is so sweet! So, what does Molly Hopkins, his very recent ex-wife, think of all of this? “I have no contact with her,” Luis says. Luis explains: “I just want to be happy.” Where Molly is concerned, he says: “I don’t want to know nothing about it.” “But if she wants to congratulate me,” Luis adds. “It’s okay.” Molly did address Luis’ marriage on Instagram Live. We don’t know that we’d call her message congratulatory , however. “Oh yeah,” Molly says. “For all of you who care or who wanted to talk junk about me, um, yeah I totally got used, but it’s all good.” “Luis got married to a Dominican lady in Jersey, the best I could tell,” Molly explains. “I saw pictures,” Molly says. “So yeah, he’s married to someone else.” And Molly, who recently flaunted her weight loss on social media, doesn’t have a high opinion of this new union. “Oh yeah, he totally married someone,” Molly says. “She looks older than me — from the Dominican [Republic].” “I just saw the pictures,” Molly continues. “So for all you people that thought that I was crazy…” “His situation was pretty lovely,” Molly claims. “I mean, we were together for two years, so it’s all good.” “I know, I just — I feel like I need to redeem myself,” she explains. “Because a lot of people talked so much s–t about me, and I’m not with it.” Molly then concludes: “But, hey, it’s all good!” A lot of celebrities like to assure fans that things are all good when reality is otherwise. We can only hope that Luis’ current marriage is less problematic than his last one. 90 Day Fiance fans were immediately suspicious over the age difference between Molly and Luis. Some feared that he intended to exploit her for a Green Card. The actual marriage turned out to be worse than that, and there was even a video that may have shown Molly abusing Luis . Domestic violence, or even the implication or accusation of it, is absolutely never okay. We should note that, even if Luis’ new bride is an American citizen, Luis would still have to return to the Dominican Republic and reapply for a K-1 visa. However, there were suggestions on Instagram earlier this summer that Luis had returned home. At the time, 90 Day Fiance fans assumed that Luis had been deported . He had been staying with family in New Jersey. But now, that July visit might be explained if he went back for a couple of weeks in order to prepare for a new marriage. We do not know enough to confirm that. All that we know for sure is that this looks like one hell of a rebound. View Slideshow: 90 Day Fiance Couples: Who’s Still Together?

Sarah Silverman: I Let Louis C.K. Masturbate in Front of Me

Posted on October 22, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

Sorry, Sarah Silverman, but… … cum again? (Okay, truthfully, we’re sorry to our readers here.) The comedian has made some very gross headlines by appearing Monday morning on Howard Stern’s SiriusXM radio show and speaking on her friendship with Louis C.K. Back in November, of course, C.K. was accused of five women of sexual misconduct. They all said that the famous stand-up jerked off in their presence , an allegation that C.K. later acknowledged as true . Talking to Stern, Silverman sort of defended her friend’s actions (or at least his mindset at the time of these actions) by telling a personal and disgusting story: “I don’t know if I’m going to regret saying this,” she said. “I’ve known Louis forever, I’m not making excuses for him, so please don’t take this that way. We are peers. We are equals. “When we were kids, and he asked if he could masturbate in front of me, sometimes I’d go, ‘F-c yeah I want to see that!’ … “It’s not analogous to the other women that are talking about what he did to them. He could offer me nothing. We were only just friends. “So sometimes, yeah, I wanted to see it, it was amazing. Sometimes I would say, ‘F-cking no, gross,’ and we got pizza.” Well… okay then. Not sure what else to say about that. C.K. pleasuring himself in front of a woman who admittedly wants him to do so is fine of course.  Especially, as Silverman notes here, when the two people involved are peers. But C.K. pleasuring himself in front of women who did not give their consent and over whom he held power is unethical and wildly inappropriate. Silverman’s point here, however, is that C.K. may not have realized this upon yanking out his junk in front of his victims. “I’m not saying what he did was okay,” she said to Stern, explaining: “I’m just saying at a certain point, when he became influential, not even famous, but influential in the world of comedy, it changes. “He felt like he was the same person, but the dynamic was different and it was not okay.” It was definitely not okay. “I’m not saying everyone should embrace Louis again,” Silverman continued. “I believe he has remorse. I just want him to talk about it on stage. He’s going to have to find his way or not find his way.” Louis, of course, has now returned to the stage , despite many people thinking he hasn’t learned any lessons; suffered any consequences; or taking any steps to make anyone believe he regrets his actions. Said C.K. in a statement after the aforementioned five women came forward: These stories are true. At the time, I said to myself that what I did was O.K. because I never showed a woman my dick without asking first, which is also true. But what I learned later in life, too late, is that when you have power over another person, asking them to look at your dick isn’t a question. It’s a predicament for them. The power I had over these women is that they admired me. And I wielded that power irresponsibly. I have been remorseful of my actions. And I’ve tried to learn from them. And run from them. Now I’m aware of the extent of the impact of my actions. One of the women who sat and watched C.K. masturbate said the experience discouraged her from pursuing a career in comedy. It ruined the entire entertainment industry for her. Concluded C.K. in his statement: I learned yesterday the extent to which I left these women who admired me feeling badly about themselves and cautious around other men who would never have put them in that position. I also took advantage of the fact that I was widely admired in my and their community, which disabled them from sharing their story and brought hardship to them when they tried because people who look up to me didn’t want to hear it.. There is nothing about this that I forgive myself for. And I have to reconcile it with who I am. Which is nothing compared to the task I left them with. I wish I had reacted to their admiration of me by being a good example to them as a man and given them some guidance as a comedian, including because I admired their work. The hardest regret to live with is what you’ve done to hurt someone else. And I can hardly wrap my head around the scope of hurt I brought on them… I’ve brought pain to my family, my friends, my children and their mother. I have spent my long and lucky career talking and saying anything I want. I will now step back and take a long time to listen. View Slideshow: Hollywood Sex Scandal: Who’s Been Caught? Accused?

Kim Kardashian Turns 38, Receives ALL the Birthday Wishes

Posted on October 22, 2018 by Benny Hollywood| Leave a comment

38. It isn’t the number of times the Kim Kardashian sex tape has been downloaded in the past hour or so. It’s now the age of the woman after whom this sex tape is named. On Sunday, October 21, Kim Kardashian celebrated her latest birthday, inching a year closer to the big 4-0 while basking in the adulation of her followers and her family members. Nearly each of those included in the latter group jumped on social media to send along their best wishes and most heartfelt tributes. To wit, here’s a message from sister Khloe: “Happy birthday sweet Kimberly!!! My entire life you’ve always been someone that I look up to. To me, You are super woman!! I’m not sure how you do it all and make everything look so easy. “People have no idea how selfless of a human being you are. With no credit wanted either. “I am so impressed by the woman, wife and mother you have become.” And Khloe wasn’t done, either!
