North West is still a Hollyweird name. Kim Kardashian Reveals Racism Fears Behind Daughter’s Name Now, we don’t think they would have called them the KKK, but a “K” name would have been a whole lot better than North West. According to Radar Online How kould she? Kardashian fans were surprised and maybe even a little disappointed when Kim Kardashian and Kanye West departed from Kim’s family tradition and named their daughter North West . Of course, Kim’s sister Kourtney named her own kids Penelope and Mason. But Kim and Kanye were already on their way to a K-filled fam when Kim realized they better not. Although she and Kanye “kind of” wanted to go with another “K,” Kim reveals in a new clip from Keeping Up With the Kardashians, she was afraid of being linked to white supremacists. “Our kid, if it’s a K, they’ll call us the KKK!” she explained. Kim and Kanye called themselves part of a “KKK” before, when they filmed a promo for the 2012 VMAs with Kevin Hart. After weighing her options, Kim shared her choice, “North,” with Kourt, who deemed it “pretty and cool,” according to the clip. Kris Jenner has also weighed in with praise for the pick, flaming she doesn’t believe people will tease North about her name when she’s older. Kris Jenner is delusional. North will be teased all the way from elementary school to college. FOH.

Paula Deen has filed a blistering response to the lawsuit that is torpedoing her career, claiming Lisa Jackson embellished or made up her racism allegations. Yes, Paula admitted using racial slurs in the deposition she gave, but remember that she has NOT admitted anything Jackson has accused her of. Deen said, under oath, that she has used racial epithets in the past, in conversations with friends and family – never in a discriminatory situation. She is fuming that Jackson, who was fired as manager of Uncle Bubba’s Seafood and Oyster House, is actually asking for damages based on racism. Citing discrimination and harassment, Lisa Jackson claims she is “African-American adjacent” – her partner has a biracial niece, she claims in the lawsuit. According to Deen, Jackson’s niece is NOT African-American , but Hispanic. Also, Paula is furious that Jackson alleges she used the n-word in connection with her brother Bubba’s wedding, yet has never offered any proof of this. Thus, Deen feels she was deposed in a lawsuit and forced to admit having used shameful – but quite possibly irrelevant – terms based on bogus claims. As we know, in the wake of the scandal, she’s been fired by Food Network … and Walmart, Caesars, Smithfield Foods, Target, and (sort of) QVC. The celebrity chef wants the case thrown out, and for a judge to throw the book at Jackson, fining her with sanctions for creating a BS harassment case. Stay tuned …
