Kim Kardashian has changed her name to Kim Kardashian West . Her screen name, that is. The reality star has added the last name of husband Kanye West to her Twitter account and her Instagram page, which, granted, is a mighty big move for this online maven. But an insider confirms to Radar Online that Kim won’t be making the biggest move of all: she’ll legally remain Kim Kardashian forever… because her mother wouldn’t have it any other way. Say Hello to Kim Kardashian West! “There is no way Kris would ever give her blessing for the main cash cow of the Kardashian empire to not continue to use that name professionally,” a source says, adding that Jenner will “fight tooth and nail” if Kim resists this demand. It makes sense, really. The family probably still gets royalties off the Kim Kardashian sex tape and Kris doesn’t want to confuse those who search for her naked, spread eagle daughter in the future. This insider even jokes that Kris would try to convince Kanye to change his last name to Kardashian if she thought it were possible. Just think of how that would help the TV/perfume/clothing/sex tape/diet pill/whatever-is-offered-to-them-for-the-right-price empire! Kim and Kanye, of course, got married in Florence last Saturday. They then took off for a honeymoon in Ireland and no family members have really spoken publicly about the affair since. Because this Kim Kardashian wedding report – which details the embarrassing chaos that was the entire ridiculous affair – has left them humiliated? Or because they are saving all quotes for a well-paying tabloid exclusive? We’ll let you decide on the answer as you click through some Kimye wedding pictures: Kim Kardashian Wedding Photos 1.

Chris Crafton of the U.S. Air Force was supposed to be stationed in Cuba, not at his daughter Taylor’s high school graduation in Grand Forks, N.D. Oh, how he had his family fooled this week. Chris’ family was prepared for his absence from Taylor’s big day, to the point where they even made a cardboard cutout of him to sit in the crowd in spirit. Not only did Crafton manage to end his deployment in time for her graduation, though, he declined to tell anyone in his family, not even his wife. Which made this all the more amazing: Deployed Dad Surprises Daughter at Graduation An announcement from the ceremony’s MC was the only thing signaling Chris’ arrival, just before he jogged onstage and embraced Taylor, saying: “I told you, don’t give up on your dad .” She never did, despite the demands of his job. He’s spent 1,782 days deployed, by his count, saying “This is my last deployment so I had to make it happen.” “I’ve missed a lot … you know, birthdays, Christmas, that kind of thing,” Crafton said. “So I just tried my best to get here for when she graduated.” Says his wife and Taylor’s mom Paige: “These are just things that you see on YouTube or on TV, it’s nothing that really happens to people that you know, so it’s just the best feeling in the world.” 13 Epic Reactions to Surprises Caught on Camera 1.

Rob Kardashian is trying to start over. The reality star has deleted nearly all his Twitter message, along with his Instagram page, and is ready to lose weight . The moves come just days after Rob shockingly peaced out of his sister’s wedding weekend, catching a flight to Los Angeles Saturday morning… before Kim Kardashian said “I Do” for the third time. Some sort of issue allegedly arose over Rob refusing to be included in any family portraits due to his low self-esteem. Rob Kardashian Weight Gain “Friends at the wedding expressed serious concern for him,” a close family pal, who attended the Kimye festivities, tells People. “When I saw him, it looked like something was very wrong.” Rob’s struggle with a ballooning figure has been making headlines for months now. He recently shot down talk that he attended rehab to deal with depression as a result of this weight gain, but Rob also acknowledged on Twitter last week that he’s well aware of his girth. “I know I’m fat,” he actually wrote, asking haters to stop hating. But this insider says he’s “not sure” Rob’s behavior and downtrodden moods are “solely related to weight gain,” while also making it clear to the star that “his friends and family are rooting for him.” No member of the family has commented on the situation since the wedding, though Kardashian recently reached out to Lamar Odom for advice. And just for friendship, we’d imagine. These two have always been close, so let’s hope Odom can help turn Rob’s frown upside down. 27 Handsome Photos of Rob Kardashian 1.
