Yesterday, Rob Kardashian shared a photo of Karrueche Tran on his Instagram page. That may seem like an innocent enough act, but Karrueche is the ex-girlfriend of Chris Brown, which means that simple acts of social media flirtation have led to online death threats in the past. Rob’s caption (“I like it when she send me pictures.”) only added fuel to the fire, and many fans began speculating that the reclusive sock designer was bangin’ the Tran. Despite the fact that he clearly invited this sort of conjecture, Rob got pissed at his IG followers who dared to suggest that he and Karrueche were anything more than just friends. Now, it seems Karrueche is just as eager to set the record straight. She posted the video below as evidence that she sent Rob a pic not to be flirtatious, but to show off the swelling from her recent visit to the dentist: Karrueche Tran: Post-Dentist Video Reps for Tran confirm to TMZ that she and Rob have been “friends since high school,” but never anything more. It’s a good thing she cleared that up. That way, Rob doesn’t have to worry about Breezy caving his face in, and Karrueche doesn’t have to worry about people thinking she’s dating a dude who spends his days smoking weed, playing video games and plotting his return to the fast-paced world of sock design.
After spending more than a year out of the public eye, sources say Rob Kardashian is losing weight , sobering up, and planning to join the rest of his family on reality television. A recent Instagram photo of Rob showed the 28-year-old former sock designer appearing significantly slimmer in the face. Now, Us Weekly is confirming that that wasn’t just a flattering angle – Rob really is losing weight. The tabloid says multiple sources have confirmed that the sole male Kardashian has dropped 15 pounds in recent weeks. Rob’s slimmed-down selfies seem to confirm that he’s on the right track, even if they only feature extreme close-ups of individual parts of his body. The Kardashians have reportedly tried several approaches in an effort to motivate Rob to get back into shape. When their multiple efforts to inspire him failed, the E! network stepped in with the greatest motivator of all – millions of dollars! Yes, Keeping Up With the Kardashians producers reportedly reminded Rob that his $2 million-a-year contract is soon to expire – and he doesn’t get paid if he doesn’t film Rob reportedly can’t bring himself to appear on camera in his current state, but he would be insane to pass up such a lucrative opportunity. Now, friends say Rob has been hitting the gym like a mad man in order to get back in shape for KUWTK. So if you know someone who’s struggling to find their motivation, just offer them a couple mill! Works every time!
A little thumbs up on Facebook turned into a huge thumbs down for a Pennsylvania man. Justin Bellanco, 26, was charged with contempt of court after he “liked” Facebook photos of a women who accused him of harassment. The woman, April Holland, obtained a restraining order against Bellanco. She claimed that her 26-year-old ex-boyfriend was stalking and harassing both her and her friends. According to the Wilkes-Barre Times Leader, Holland, 24, reported that Bellanco even threatened to shoot her in the knee cap. On August 4, a Luzerne County Judge issued a restraining order against Bellanco, which forbade him from contacting Holland for a year. However, despite the restraining order, via Facebook, he “liked” 22 videos and photos on her Facebook page. Pittston, Pennsylvania, police claimed that by liking her Facebook videos and pics, he is in violation of the no-contact retraining order. Bellanco argued that he was unaware that liking Facebook photos and video was out of compliance with the judge’s order. This might be a good time for Holland to update her privacy settings. The couple is not unaccustomed to domestic disputes. According to the Wilkes-Barre Times Leader, Bellanco once obtained a protection from abuse order against his ex-girlfriend. Reportedly, in April 2014, she tried to choke him during a domestic dispute.
Yesterday, Rob Kardashian returned to Instagram with a throwback photo of his niece North and his brother-in-law Kanye West. Actually, it was Rob’s third post of the week, but the first two were tributes to Paul Newman (or his lemonade) and Colin Farrell’s character in Miami Vice. So perhaps we should say Rob returned to making sense on Instagram with the photo of Yeezy and his niezzy. Some thought Rob was throwing some sort of subtle shade at his sister, but when Rob wants to diss Kim, he’s not exactly low-key about it. (See: his post comparing Kim to ” the b-tch from Gone Girl .”) No, those close to the situation say Rob is genuinely trying to make things right with Kim, a rumor confirmed by her recent tweet reading, “Just went on the hardest hike ever today with @RobKardashian.” Now, Radar Online has the inside scoop on Rob’s efforts to make peace with Kim : “There was no shade at all behind Rob’s Instagram post,” a family insider tells the site. “It was more of a peace offering than anything else.” “Rob really wants to have a great relationship with Kim and Kanye because he wants to be able to be close to their kids like he is close to his sister Kourtney‘s…Rob loves playing uncle and the kids all love him. He acts like himself when he is the babysitter.” Moments ago, Rob even posted a photo of Kim’s tweet about their hike on Instagram. Then he posted a photo of Scarface with a cation reading, “This is me,” because, well…Rob’s still kind of a dumbass sometimes.
Yesterday, we reported that Rob Kardashian skipped Kylie Jenner’s birthday celebration and has reportedly cut all ties with his concerned family. Rob is back on Instagram these days, but he didn’t even uphold the Kardashian tradition of giving his sibling a b-day shout-out on social media. Instead, Rob paid tribute to legendary actor and philanthropist Paul Newman, for reasons that we’re guessing he doesn’t quite remember: It was a nice gesture and all, but it was neither Newman’s birthday, nor the anniversary of his death, so the whole thing seems a bit random. Given everything that we’ve heard about Rob’s partying habits , we’re guessing the 28-year-old was treating his cottonmouth with some refreshing Newman’s Own lemonade when he decided to honor the memory of Cool Hand Luke. It’s Rob’s first post in over a week, and he captioned it simply, “RIP.” Now, we (semi) jokingly suggested that Rob was drunk or high when he posted the pic, but considering the fact that Newman was as well known for his charity work as for his acting, it’s possible that Rob is once again using his IG page to subtly criticize his own family. It’s hard not to think that the man is sending a message when he mourns the loss of one of Hollywood’s greatest humanitarians on the same day that his 18-year-old sister received a quarter-million dollar Ferrari as a birthday present. Of course, moments later, Rob posted a pic of Colin Farrell in Miami Vice, so maybe he’s just planning on getting into acting. We’re gonna stick with our original theory that Rob was baked out of his gourd and decided that Butch Cassidy seemed like a chill dude.
We haven’t heard much from Rob Kardashian in the better part of a year, but sources say he is keeping close tabs on the Scott Disick drama. To wit, he is supposedly planning to avenge sister Kourtney Kardashian’s honor by giving her drunken baby daddy an old-fashioned ass-whooping. As much as we would love to watch that fight play out, however, it looks like Rob Kardashian is once again being used as a pawn by Kris Jenner. Those reports of Rob suing his family may be overblown, but there is certainly no love lost at the moment, and he is as reclusive as ever. In the wake of Kourtney Kardashian dumping Scott Disick , Kris has been working overtime to make her daughter appear to be the victim. Which she is, by all accounts, as the drunken Scott parades around with Chloe Bartoli and effectively chose alcohol over his own kids. Kris’ leaked stories that Rob will ride in like the family’s knight in shining armor and beat the f–k out of Scott are exaggerated, though. In actuality, Rob is aware of what happened, but is likely holed up somewhere playing video games and ignoring his famous family. A Kardashian source dished to Celeb Dirty Laundry , “He and Scott are definitely not friends. Rob is not going to beat up Scott.” “He knows what it is like to live with the Kardashian women and that his sister is not as innocent as the media is portraying her as.” Don’t forget that Rob said Scott is a legend on Instagram as recently as this spring, so there wasn’t any animosity prior to this.
