    If my mom ever brought up me doing something like this for money or fame I would break down crying. We would not speak until she apologized.

    Kris could be lying or the girl could be lying so who knows…This could all be part of the Kardashian plan. they have no shame.

    • BB says:

      Kris Humphries is an idiot. He is slowly proving to people that he is a loser.

    • Sam says:

      Unfortunately her children are so brain washed I doubt they would even question the morality/complete inappropriateness of the demands. “Mom wants me to make a sex tape? She knows best.”

      • lilred says:

        Morals and appropriate behavior are learned not innate,they are all idiots who do what Chris tells them…because she has no morals.

      • sup says:

        they’re old enough to realize that and not participate unless they want to. no excuses for being a fameho idiot.

    • me says:

      her mom wanted her to do playboy, so yeah I wouldn’t put it past her. All I remember her mom saying is “Kim it’s A LOT Of money you have to do it”.

      Wonder if her mom got her 10% from the sex tape too. This family has zero shame.

      I love the way Kim gets in and out of a car, as if she’s royalty. Please !

      • Mata says:

        I was just going to say that. Kim has said that she didn’t really want to do Playboy the first time. It was her mother that pressured her into it. Given that and the fact they started exploiting the sex tape almost immediately, I’d believe this.

      • Raven says:

        Royalty? She looks like a giant sausage in that photo.

    • marie says:

      I think they’re both idiots.. And Kim never needs to wear that dress again, reminds me of a butt sittin on a toilet seat cover..

  2. JudyK says:

    If I never see Kris Jenner’s mug again, it will be too soon.

  3. Stacia says:

    YES! That’s what a real go-getter pimp-mama does.

    • autumndaze says:

      I feel so let down by my mother. I haven’t millions or photos in celebrity magazines or a sex tape.
      But my mother did instill morals in me and modeled self-respect. What is that worth?

      • Mooshi says:

        @C-autumndaze

        You may not be rich, but you can sleep at night.

        And one day far away in your deathbed you will KNOW you are a GOOD person.

        That is the most anyone can hope for, and the least trait hollywood likes.

        Stay true to yourself.

  4. Maguita says:

    No amount of hot piss would ever obliterate the burning herpes, if true, of Kris’ horrifying actions.

    • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

      I see what you did there clever lady 😉

      • Maguita says:

        moi??

        Can’t you see the shining halo over my head?

        (yeah-yeah, and the red horns on the back of my head too)

        How you doin’ Mort, you’ve been quiet lately. All good?

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        @maguita, I was all over the other Kardashian thread. They couldn’t get me to shut up. I’ve been posting a little over at Jezebel, but the vibe over there is much more tense and competitive (and I really don’t feel like spending all day clarifying myself). Celebitchy is my home 🙂

      • the original bellaluna says:

        Mort, CB is my home as well. I’ll do the Jezzie-thing for a bit if it suits me, but CB is my ABSOLUTE GO-TO.

        I LOVE my fellow CB’ers!!!

      • Maguita says:

        I’m a tad on Kardashian overload… Taking a bit of a break, so did not check the comments… Stepping away from temptation!

        Never tried to comment on Jezebel before, how is it competitive?

        And yeah, you ladies are one of the reasons CB is gossipy-homey goodness!

      • MorticiansDoItDeader says:

        @maguita, discussions, more or less, always come down to someone wanting citations and/or peer reviewed data. LOL. i.e., on a thread about placing new limitations on sex offenders, people wanted data on recidivism rates. Then a good amount of people went on to defend the civil liberties of the sex offenders. I was blown away. They’re very much into arguing facts and figures. I talked about using the alternative vaccine schedule (spacing out vaccines) and was told there was no peer reviewed data to back up my vaccine schedule, and that I was using my child as “a one off guinea pig.” I was also placed in the same category as the “anti-vaccine idiots” and “Jenny McCarthy.” I had some support from other commenters who got the idea that I was trying to minimize the potential for an reaction (since I only allow my children to have one new vaccine at a time). I told them about how the rotovirus vaccine caused my son to have violent diarrhea and dehydration, and about how the doctor said it appeared to be a reaction to the vaccine, (because of the timing and known side effects), but commenters told me we were both wrong (that the illness was coincidental and there was no scientific evidence to support my theory). Other website rules are no body snarking (so no pointing out obvious plastic surgery etc) and no +1 etc. All of the rules, about what you can and can’t say, strike me as funny (because they’re a website SO focused on constitutional rites, yet they’re pretty quick to limit people’s ability to comment on certain things).

      • Maguita says:

        Basically it’s stepping away from gossip on everyday news, and becoming a very-much policed state.

        Although I love challenging people to prove what they are talking about (Obama was born in Kenya), sometimes, common sense must prevail. Because where it concerns medical expertise, like any Romney discourse, you can find studies supporting both ends of the spectrum. Flip-Flopping on the same subject, depending on who’s funding the project.

        Glad though you can join us here on CB more often! 🙂

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        @Mort-my friend’s sister got a flu vaccine while pregnant (upon her doctor’s advice) for the safety of the baby. She had a violent reaction and ended up unable to talk, walk, eat. 8 months later she is making a slow recovery-finally started to drive. She’s basically a miracle story because doctors thought she would never recover. I thought it was just a known thing that vaccines can cause problems. I know that the autism link has been invalidated but why would people jump on you for saying what you said? Again, thought it was common knowledge that vaccines *can be* dangerous.

  5. Amelia says:

    That dress (particularly in the bottom) pic is so unflattering.
    I may start a protest against peplums.

  6. lassie says:

    I never realized there were so many ugly clothes in the world, and, strangely enough, all of them are located in Kim Kardashian’s closet.

  7. neelyo says:

    That’s giving Kris Jenner WAY too much credit. She’s not smart, just sn extremely lucky opportunist.

    • Trillion says:

      Yeah, I don’t approve of the word “smart” to describe that level of opportunism and greed. It’s an insult to actual smart people.

  8. Becky says:

    I would not put anything past the Kardashian family. Kim’s first husband even said she wanted to be famous for years before the sex tape, it’s just insane to me that instead of trying to find a talent to legitimize herself she went the sex tape route.

    • Dahlia1947 says:

      Yeah well she was hanging out with Paris so I think that’s when it clicked in her head that that’s what would make her famous.

  9. Relli says:

    OMG WHO DIDN’T LOVE DARIA!

    When the disc collection came out i requested it for Mother’s day. I watched the whole thing in two weeks flat.

    BEST SHOW EVER!

    • dahlianoir says:

      Team Daria bitches !

    • mia girl says:

      Agree! I scream it loud and proud – I loved DARIA!

      While I’m at it, I’ll also add how much I loved Liquid Television!

    • curegirl0421 says:

      I agree, who didn’t love Daria? That show was awesome, and one of the few I identified with way back in the olden days. 🙂

  10. Jennika says:

    Wouldn’t surprise me. I’m so looking for the divorce trial! Boy Kris will be my savor if he bring down this family

  11. k says:

    Why is it a dirty secret to love Daria?

    • Brooke says:

      If a person legitimately liked Daria s/he would be unashamed of it. The way that phrase turns says to me the person who wrote it either didn’t understand or didn’t watch the show but desires the cachet of geek chic. Is that you, Quinn? hahaha

  12. Crystal says:

    Well, duh. I wouldn’t even be surprised to hear if Kris was operating the camera and giving them directions.

    Ugh, this sloth from The Goonies looking motherf*cker Kris Humprhries is so annoying. He’s so bitter. Go away.

    WTF is Kim wearing ???

  13. NeNe says:

    I 100% believe that everything that is done by her family is calculated by their mother. No doubt!!

  14. Rory says:

    Classy outfit – NOT. Way to show off your fake cleavage. MOOOOO. Gross. Imagine being famous for being the spawn of the man who helped OJ get away with murder – of two innocent people. Imagine! All I want to do is puke all over her, and her mother. What is even more scary is that they’re breeding. Yikes.

  15. me says:

    I bet Kris Jenner wishes Rob was born a girl…she could have made plenty of money off another daughter than a son. No wonder he’s the one who gets the least attention lol.

  16. Kaitlin says:

    Ok that link about the 21 images to restore your faith in humanity had me bawling my eyes out at my desk. Thanks, I needed that today.

    • Amelia says:

      Thank you for mentioning that, I just went and read the article – completely made my day 🙂
      Happy Thursday everyone!

    • Prinny says:

      Me too!!! Especially the elderly lady who wrote the not for the waiter.

    • pam says:

      That was a great article, very inspiring, we need more people like that on this earth. It’s always the people who have very little to give that end up giving the most. Love it.

      • buckley says:

        LOVE that article.
        That picture of the fireman holding that tabby and that look the cat is giving him!!
        Awwwww!

  17. HappyJoyJoy says:

    I believe she (Kris) saw what it did for Paris Hilton’s career & went for it. I think she saw it as a business opportunity. This woman is all business all the time. I don’t think she “directed” her, but I could see her like…. throwing hints in the air.

    • Susan says:

      +1. I think you’re exactly right. I refuse to watch her show, buy any magazines with her anywhere on the cover or buy any of her endorsed products. However, I will admit that my husband and I were curious about this hype and saw a few minutes of this sex tape. Kim looked right into the camera and beamed. This was no accident. This was not for her private collection. She wanted a debut.

    • Violet says:

      Yep, that’s my take as well.

  18. A says:

    I love Dakota, but girl has terrible style. She either dresses like a 12 year old princess or a wacked out hipster. Not a fan of JenLaw, but she’s not wearing anything sheer on purpose. It’s the high flash the paps use on their cameras to take photos. It makes a lot of outfits, which normally look fine under the light, sheer. I read that somewhere in a fashion blog, plus having seen the paps go after Britney at Starbucks once and how bright the flash is I can totally understand how that happens.

    Kris Jenner. Ugh. Enough said.

  19. aud says:

    Jennifer’s top is def see through, but all you can see is her bra. And it’s a cute one, so meh

    I also thought Liam might have only agreed to propose if Miley agreed to stop flashing her junk to any photog willing to look. Guess not

  20. midgetpornslut says:

    2 vids were made ..
    the original with the peeing scene & the 2nd one re-released by vivid without it..
    vid’ is disgustin’…
    vile family ..

  21. faye says:

    I’m guessing they dont have any sort of plastic surgery for old lady neck?

  22. ladybert62 says:

    I dont think the mother told her to make the sex tape but I do think the mother talked her into making it public.

  23. Marie Antoinette Jr. says:

    I think Kim made the tape because a lot of her friends were making them and she thought it was cool and edgy; and also because ray J. was kind of famous compared to Kim at the time. But I don’t think she did it because her mom told her to.

    But is was the pimp mom who definitely capitalized on it. It was Kris who decided to make lemonade out of piss, so to speak, and she convinced her daughter that the tape was nothing to be ashamed of, but rather an opportunity to be exploited for $$$. And you know what, that dirty pimp of a mom was right!

  24. anti-icon says:

    In Links Today, who’s pimpin’ harder — Kris Kardashian or Alec Baldwin. At least Baldwin (rage monster) does bring the lolz to Letterman with his pants down bit….but they both seem the same…hustling for the dollar at any, and all cost. pathetic, really.

  25. Dawn says:

    People please this is the kind of guy who wants an annulment not a divorce. God only knows what lies big ass Kim told him to cover all her A-moral behavior. I believe that she told him that it was mamma’s idea because it is so easy to believe. I believe she tells everyone what she believes they WANT to hear and that doesn’t have to be the truth. After all her talent is making others fall in love with her and she sure can’t be truthful or herself for that. She is a whore who fools anyone and everyone she can. And if Kris Humphries is a loser and an idiot for believing her, just what does that make her fans? Not to mention all the media people who keep this vapid whore in the press.

    • Dahlia1947 says:

      Well I’ve seen some episodes too *hangs head in shame* and she was always whining or crying about something, and lying to her little sisters.

      Anyway it was always “me, me, me, me! I’m a victim, poor me!”
      So I could definitely believe that she told Kris “MY MOM MADE ME DO IT!” And she probably provided some fake tears just like on the show.

  26. Nava says:

    Oh dear, I really need new glasses. I thought I was looking at Judy Jeston, with black hair, and fake boobies!!

  27. I.want.shoes says:

    Re: Kris Mama Pimp

    The answer is d) all of the above

  28. LucyOriginal says:

    I remember that I saw one episode of the kardashians (please, don’t crucify me) and on that particular episode her sisters were upset at her because she lied compulsively about every little silly thing. I don’t believe a word she says and she may told him the truth or he is too gullible to fall in her lies…

  29. the original bellaluna says:

    I am SO GRATEFUL that I’m able see my children as they are (children) and not a source of income.

    I wouldn’t put ANYTHING past PMK or WO.

    I NEED that band-aid box (says the woman wearing a Peanuts band-aid on a cut).

    Matthew, until you’ve undergone a few Brazilians and pit waxings (minus the herbal refreshment), kindly sit down and STFU!

    Congrats to Anna – I’m not even sure I knew she was pregnant.

  30. Lol.... says:

    Face it people you are all Johns to mama PIMP!-dashian. Just by you taking the time to involve yourself in their manufactured drama you are playing into her grand scheme. I feel guilty for even posting his but damn… I know it is hard not to watch this evolving train wreck. But here is a revelation… If you quit watching, talking and posting about them they will crawl back under those bejeweled rocks they came from. They are not worth the time…..

  31. Ally says:

    Well, Kris J talked Kim K into showing more in Playboy, and did so on camera for their TV show. Not to mention Kris’s own lovely spread-eagled with the flag moment.

    So it wouldn’t be a stretch.

    Kris Jenner always makes me think of the mother in this Law & Order episode:
    http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0394752/

  32. jwoolman says:

    Dawn might be right that Kimmie told Kris H that evil Mommy made her do it. Or else he was just venting sarcastically about Mama Ten Percent in a private conversation. Or he never said it at all… Could be a K Klan attempt to scare him out of the trial, since so far he hasn’t been interested in $$$ and hasn’t seemed worried about what comes out about him. I’m hoping they subpoena the whole Klan plus Kanye and Reggie. Heck, maybe even little Mason has some interesting insights….

  33. mytwocents says:

    I am sorry this post is so long, but I have been thinking about this a lot (too much!), and there is an interesting timeline that I think points to Kris doing this. I don’t want to think that a mother can be that low down, but I think Kris had Kim make the sex tape, and it was kept on ice until the right time to release it. It was all part of her master plan, but I don’t think even she knew how well it would work. We have come to know how much of a fame whore Kris is and she has passed her greed and need for fame onto her children and manipulated them as much as possible.

    I checked Wikipedia and the timeline is as follows:

    In 2001, Paris Hilton becomes famous for NOTHING but is named New York’s leading “It Girl” socialite and becomes a tabloid/internet fixture.

    In November 2003, Paris gained “significant notoriety” due to the release of her sex tape JUST PRIOR to the premiere of “The Simple Life” with Nicole Ritchie, which became a huge hit. Nicole Ritchie was NOT FAMOUS until that show went on the air. She was Lionel’s daughter yes, but not famous. So her fame came from her attachment to Paris.

    Kim’s sex tape was filmed in 2003, but not released until 2007. It is interesting that Kim married music producer, Damon Thomas, in 2000 and they divorced in 2004. So she was STILL MARRIED to him when she made the sex tape with Ray J in 2003. So she has been a whore for a very long time.

    In 2006, Kim starts hanging out with Paris Hilton, being photographed and reported on in tabloids/internet gossip sites.

    In 2007, Kim’s sex tape is released JUST PRIOR to the Kardashian’s reality show (just like Paris!). When the show first aired, although Kim was somewhat known, Bruce Jenner was the MOST FAMOUS of them all. Of course, now he is just melting wallpaper on the show.

    In 2009, Kim and Paris have a “feud” that many believed was just for publicity, but Paris is filmed saying she had a few friends that only hung out with her to become famous. Here is the link for that: http://www.myspace.com/video/lynn-and-alex/paris-kim-kardashian-feud-la-rag-mag-com/53137949. She is obviously referring to Kim. By this time, Kim dumps her because she doesn’t need her anymore because now she is FAMOUS!! Why did she hang out with Paris in the first place, since Kim claims she doesn’t drink or do drugs? She did it to use Paris, and I am sure it was Kris that told her to do it because it worked for Nicole Ritchie.

    Also, it dawned on me that Linda Thompson, who was married to Bruce Jenner, and is the mother of Brody and Brandon, was on the reality show, “Princes of Malibu”, with her sons and her then husband, David Foster in 2005. Brody and Brandon are Kris’ stepsons and half brothers to Kylie and Kendall. The show was created and executive produced by Brody. Brody was also on The Hills, which started in 2007. I bet Kris was PISSED and insanely jealous of Linda and those boys being on those shows. Linda is an award winning songwriter now, and has done several “smallish” acting parts. She was on Hee Haw prior to that. But the reason she became internationally famous was because she was Elvis Presley’s girlfriend for 5 years. I am a huge Elvis fan, and Elvis fans LOVE Linda much more than Priscilla, so I have mad respect for her, and she is NOTHING like Kris. How Bruce could move from Linda to Kris is beyond me because they are as different as any two women could be. But I can just imagine Kris saying something to the effect of, “She’s only famous because she f*cked Elvis!”.

    Now, this is after Robert Kardashian becomes famous in 1995 for being O. J. Simpson’s attorney. They divorced in 1990, so Kris missed that chance to become famous. Don’t you know that pissed her off too. I know Robert is their father, but they made sure they mentioned him over and over on that show, so they could attach themselves to his FAME even after he was dead and buried! Remember how she had the gall to talk about Nicole Simpson not too long ago; bringing attention to herself over that tragedy that happened over 20 years ago!

    So that is my two cents about this. Kris wanted to be famous so badly she used Kim to get it for her, beginning with that sex tape. I never had any respect or use for these bottom feeders, and knowing that this “theory” is probably true, I think they are disgusting. Its funny that the lurid truth is finally coming out about them. They are on their way down. We just have to be patient. They are their own worst enemies.

    • Raven says:

      Interesting timeline about KK and the tape. As far as her using Paris, Paris has used so many people herself, I have no problem when anyone uses Paris.

      The one good thing Kris did, if true, is get her daughter on birth control at age 14. Otherwise, KK would have had to flip a multi-sided coin to figure out the father.

  34. erika says:

    think of it this way….what would kris Hump gain from that particular remark???

    on a Helluva lot other trashy secrets he has a lot to gain, but why the thought of mommy pimping her beloved bootiful daughter to sex tape herself??

    just doesn’t make sense. the sex tape was way way wayyyyyyyyy before Kris Hump time…it just doesn’t have anything to do with him nor does it help his case.

  35. kitty-bye says:

    Apparently the Jenner’s don’t get the same Do or Die treatment from Kris heh. Why do we need to see, hear or write about these people anymore. No More, Mercy!

  36. mytwocents says:

    I just realized I put that the Simpson case was over 20 years ago. I didn’t think it was that long ago, but I’m up too late and figured wrong.

    The other thing that makes me believe this is the remark she made her do it twice. Why would he say that even if he was lying about it? Because he’s not lying; she did make her do it twice.

  37. Anne H says:

    I totally agree with you, erika!!

  38. n says:

    Well, I think Kim should have paid her ex whatever amount he was asking for as now it may lead to an end of Kartashian Era…I know you say that Kris is a loser and he only does it for money but as long as he may help the world in getting rid of filthy K family, I’m not bothered too much about his intentions.

  39. logan says:

    Doesn’t really matter if Kris did or didn’t orchestrate the video. Fact is she is probably jumping on the sofa (having a Tom Cruise moment)giddy with the fact that we are even discussing this. Mommma does like the publicity.
    Chaaaaaa Chinggggggg, good or bad publicity it’s all bankable.

  40. jeanie says:

    Thst makes sense to me. Especially after Kris J. saw how much milage Paris Hilton got out of her own sex tape.
