That’s not true, or it would’ve been all over the Daily Mail.

[howmanywords]

It would have been all over everywhere if it happened in Khloe's yard.

[GaT]

It crashed in Calabasas, so somebody probably decided that was good enough to say it was in a Kardashian backyard.

[howmanywords]

On the subject of the crash..Lamar was interviewed last night and, damn it was heartbreaking. Poor guy could barely hold it together talking about Kobe. I hope he doesn't fall into drugs again. He compared the pain in shock he is feeling to when his son died.  When Lamar ODed Kobe was one of the first people to rush to his side.

I love that Khloe and Kourtney posted supposedly cryptic messages about each other and Kim posted photos of her kid's playroom and there's zippo activity here.  Except for me posting about the zip activity 😉  Dare I dream their kudzu like infiltration of social media might have met its Round Up?

Naming is so interesting - wonder what they’ll go with for these new twins.

Bo and Sam.

Awww, sweet babies!

Burt Jenner’s boy is named Bodhi and Brody’s first name is Sam.
In spite of? Because of? Whatever - nice simple names.

What does everyone think of them moving the show to Thursday? I have no idea if Thursday is a better night for TV or not, but there must be a reason for the move.

[nkotb]

I'd say the move to Thursday is the beginning of the end. Thursday night is Gray's Anatomy on ABC, the CBS comedy lineup, I'm not sure what else, but, in my opinion, it doesn't show a lot of faith in the show & ratings.

Kim and Kourtney Kardashian Wore Matching Head-to-Toe Latex at Paris Fashion Week

Balmain again. Looks like Kourtney only got one outfit & Kim got three. Kim looks deformed in those outfits, especially when she's standing next to Kourtney. I think they both look ridiculous.

Oh FFS, Kim Kardashian (The Justice Project) will be a guest on The View on Tuesday morning.

The good news is that it's already a clusterfuck, with everyone participating from remote locations.

Honestly I don't get her being invited on Opinion shows.  Who cares what she thinks?  I'm not dismissive of her business acumen, or self-marketing, but do even her devout followers think she's a source of political or societal wisdom?  Yeah, I know Kanye thinks he's important in those ways, so by extension maybe she does too, but do the producers of The View?  Then again, they let Meghan McCain speak.  Ugh,  So they've got no standards.

Scott is in rehab.  Like I mentioned in his thread, since this is the DailyMail, I bet that Kris is the source.  She really is the devil.

I don't like Sofia Richie, I think she is a terrible influence on him.  I know he can get himself in trouble, but she seems creepy.

Aww I thought he was doing so well.

https://www.eonline.com/ca/news/1148070/scott-disick-enters-rehab-for-substance-abuse

E! News can confirm the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star entered a treatment facility in Edwards, Colorado last week. "It's true. Scott checked in last week. He had a lot of guidance from Kourtney and she demanded that he get help," a source shares. "Things have been bad the last couple of weeks and Kourtney won't allow him around the kids unless he gets treatment."

[Hiyo]

Is the source Kris?

[geauxaway]

It’s on ET online, too.  Ugh, come on Scott.  This just breaks my heart.

I worry about Mason entering his teen years.  He’s already got attitude / ego to spare and addiction is genetic.  Not a good mix.

According to E!, Scott immediately checked out of rehab, when it was made public that he was there. Apparently, when he was checked in, someone on staff snapped a pic, likely sold it, & that's how it was made public. Scott is suing. Rightfully so, in my opinion. .

This is upsetting to me. Scott checked into rehab because he needed help and now because of some greedy staff member and the intrusive press, he had to check out without getting the treatment he needed. If any harm comes to him, it will be on those people's heads (not that they'll care).

We all know that the "source" in that E! article is none other than Kris Jenner since she uses the network as her mouthpiece for the fam. Notice that Kourtney was the one who gave Scott "guidance" so that he'd check into rehab because she's always been so emotionally supportive with him. <eye roll> I really wish Scott would get into a long-term program for addiction so that he'd have a sponsor, counselors, etc. to lean on during difficult times (like this quarantine that's caused so many addicts to relapse). And he for sure needs a really good therapist to help him come to terms with the loss of his parents. I really hope that for the sake of his three children, Scott will come out of this okay.

Well, they haven't stopped filming

What It's Like Filming Keeping Up With The Kardashians In Quarantine

Quote

The last two months have been an experiment, of sorts. The doyennes of reality television have been shooting confessionals on tripods and recording their family Zoom dinners. At least two full episodes this season (airing September on E!) will consist entirely of spliced footage taken in quarantine.

I'm not a financial expert by any means, but the numbers Kris has reported for Kylie Cosmetics have always sounded unrealistic to me. No surprise here.

[howmanywords]

Holy shit talk about embarrassment. This is trending on twitter right now and lots of people are mocking Kylie.  However, stating tax returns were forged is a very serious accusation - they better have proof to back that claim up.

Yeah, REALLY embarrassing, especially since Kylie “Billionaire” Jenner has been her public image since the magazine cover came out and Kylie very much played along with it, even releasing a money themed makeup palate. So either she doesn’t have a clue about her own finances or she willingly went along with a lie

I always thought the same. I know Kylie has millions of mindless sheep ready and willing to buy whatever she puts out, but her skincare line was universally trashed, and there's hardly any buzz about her makeup anymore. When I watched that tour of her empty warehouse of an office, I didn't get the vibe any serious business was going on there. I know she's still loaded regardless, but I never believed she had billionaire status. I don't think Kanye does either.

[Hiyo]

My main issue was, the business wasn't around long enough to make her a billionaire. If you told me in another 5 or 10 years time, sure,  I might have believed it. But this was a bit too quick.

I'm pretty sure Kris and whichever "accountants" she hires handle all the finances, Kylie is just the face and maybe contributes nominally to the creative work like picking color palettes or voicing ideas for campaigns. Years ago a KWUTK episode covered Kendall and Kylie dropping out of high school to be home schooled. Kendall's excuse was that she traveled a lot for her modeling career. Kylie just flat out admitted that she couldn't keep up and felt stupid. That girl does not have the brain power to understand the basics of corporate finance, she just parroted the numbers Kris fed her.

As for me and myself, I simply do not care how much money Kylie has.  I do think her little girl is beautiful though.

It's not about how much money Kylie has, it's about Kris lying about the company's earnings in the media to get publicity and a certain status for Kylie. Had Kylie Cosmetics been a publicly traded company, Kris's actions would have been a serious crime and she could have faced a long prison sentence. If it's true that she faked tax statements, that could still be a crime, especially if the faked documents were the basis for the Coty deal. At the very least, I doubt that any reputable company will ever enter into a business deal with Kris again.

They all just lie and lie, all the time.  It is like a sickness.  I bet Kris has committed some kind of fraud, maybe not on this deal, but she has probably lied to companies in the past...

 

And like someone above said, Kylie either doesn't have a clue about her finances, or she went along with a lie.  Either way, she sucks.

[howmanywords]

Kanye being a billionaire is more believable. Love him or hate him but he has spent many years touring, selling music and way more years than Kylie building the Yeezy brand. Sure I guess its possible its bullshit but I do find it believable. Higher ups from Adidas have talked about how valuable Yeezy is. I believe them over the Kardashian camp.

I agree that the lying is habitual, but I had genuinely thought Kris was a smart enough business woman to avoid committing outright fraud. There's a big difference between lying about plastic surgery or store-bought pies and falsifying documents in a $600,000,000 deal.

I always found it laughable that she was pimped as this savvy business entrepreneur who heads a billion dollar company.  The girl doesn't come off all that bright or even that driven.   I doubt she has ever done any real work or has a clue in running a company.

I wonder if Kris just submitted fake tax returns to Forbes, but gave legit numbers to the investors and Coty? I mean, the former is certainly shady and unethical, but would it be considered illegal?

I don't think the former would be illegal since Kylie Cosmetics was a privately held company - if it had been publicly traded, Kris would have been on the hook for securities fraud.

Haha!  I’m sure this is all BS but I hope she and Kris get nervous!

[suomi]

If Coty overpaid based on false documentation then Coty would have grounds for a civil suit, right?

Maybe Kim is getting her law license just in time, phew!

[BitterApple]

My two cents is Kris produced some bullshit paperwork to get Kylie on the Forbes list, but any tax returns filed with the IRS were legit, as were the sales figures they gave Coty. 

I can't imagine the lawyers and accountants at the latter didn't go over the numbers with a fine toothed comb, especially considering the amount of money they were about to fork over for the business.
