Will Kim Kardashian really save North West’s first baby pics for Kris Jenner’s show?

Before Paula Deen’s spectacular, butter-soaked meltdown/buttery fall from grace, I actually thought it was a good possibility that Kim Kardashian and Kanye West would score the cover of this week’s People Mag, with North West’s first photoshoot. Love them or hate them, can’t we all admit that we’re looking forward to seeing North’s picture? Can’t we all admit that we can totally see how Us Weekly or People would spend major dollars to score those photos? Alas, Paula Deen got this week’s People cover and there is no news about a possible deal for the photos with any particular magazine.

And that’s where Kris Jenner has come in. Kris has a new talk show which begins airing on July 15th, two-and-a-half weeks from today. Kris was on the Today Show yesterday, and she seemed to be teasing the idea that Kim and Kanye might debut North’s first photos on her show. Kris also said that “Right now everybody is good the baby is doing is great and happy and healthy and it’s a really joyful time. It’s amazing.” When asked if Kanye and Kim have any plans to marry, she said: “You’ll have to tune in on July 15! No, I don’t, know, you’d have to ask them that, I keep that stuff all to them.”

Is Kris just shilling her show or is there a real possibility that North West’s first photos will appear on Kris Jenner’s talk show? Hollywood Life says it’s totally happening:

Kim Kardashian, 32, and Kanye West, 36, have stayed out of the spotlight since the June 15 birth of their baby girl North West. While the happy family is nesting up and bonding at home, an insider tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY when the happy couple will reveal first pics of baby Nori!

Although Kim’s sister Kourtney Kardashian revealed the first pics of baby Penelope on the cover of Us Weekly magazine — and Kim sold her wedding photos to People – she and Kanye are planning on keeping the first reveal of their baby girl in the family. A source tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY not to expect the first photos of baby North West in a round of weekly magazine spreads. In fact, it will likely be a few weeks until we see their precious girl.

“The plan is to keep things on lock down till Kris Jenner‘s new show,” the source says. “That is the current idea for the reveal.” Kris Jenner’s upcoming talk show Kris is set to premiere on Fox on July 15 — exactly a month after baby North was born.

Not selling their photos isn’t a huge surprise, especially since Kanye doesn’t see his first-born child as a cash cow. Another source told HollywoodLife.com: “I know Kanye’s not about to make money off that girl. Trust, that’s not going to happen. Kanye isn’t a pimp, and he damn sure isn’t about to pimp out his own daughter. That’s not in his character. Whenever he does decide to bring his girl out in public, it won’t be for money. It’s going to be on his terms and in an appropriate place.”

See, that’s why I don’t think this is happening. I really don’t believe that Kanye would allow his baby girl’s first photos to be revealed on Kris Jenner’s budget talk show, for the love of God. That’s SO downmarket. Kanye is all about luxury and exclusivity (sort of). While there might be issues with selling the pics to People or Us Weekly (those issues are just for Kanye, Kim would sell her grandmother for attention), I don’t see how Kanye wouldn’t want to stage-manage some artsy-fartsy photoshoot with his baby girl. Maybe for W Magazine. Or Vanity Fair. I could totally see Kanye being all “Mario Testino, y’all. North shall only be seen by Testino’s lens.”

    Releasing the pics around the time Kate has her baby in order to stay in the headlines? Sure they would.

    • Justin says:

      Oh well.. so the name is really north..

      but hey on the bright side atleast their daughter will have a good memory since

      THE NORTH NEVER FORGETS

    • akua says:

      yesssssss..i was thinking about it too…and i havent seen any buzz on the baby..maybe the name but i will say…you can not compete with a future king or queen

  2. ladybert62 says:

    Photos on the Kris Jenner Trash-Talking Show? Oh no, I predict they will have the little bundle of joy there in person!!! ha ha

    • Liberty says:

      Yes! Like the Jim Carrey movie, The Truman Show. They will raise little North live on camera forever. She will begin by living in a baby-wrangling pen or baby aquarium on set for the PMK show.

  3. pao la says:

    I’m sorry but i don’t see all this difference between Kim and Kanye’s status. they both seem garbage to me. maybe 2 different levels but still garbage. a classy man wouldn’t walk on stage trying to steal Taylor swift’s best moment and give it to Beyoncè. That’s trash behavior. Plus money can’t buy class, we all know this.

    • Dawn says:

      This +1000. Here is the deal if you have to go around screaming that you are an Fn genius, well Kanye chances are you are anything but. They both make me sick because they are such defective people. Of course she will do anything to keep herself relevant so there is some plot going on here with the kid. We need to stop commenting on these delusional people so they go away! I have lost all respect for people like Anna Wintour who keep giving people like Kanye West a platform.

    • karen says:

      Narcissistic. Delusional. Psychotic.

      And a terribly poor influence for future generations.

  4. aims says:

    I think Kris is putting the pressure on Kim, big time. I think Kim would show North on her show, but Kayne would be raging. Kim will do whatever Kayne wants because she knows that he is the best she’ll ever get.

    I’m not chomping at the bit to see the baby. I’m kind of indifferent, but I do feel badly for the baby. She has an incredible selfish family, and she is now going to be their property. They will be pimping her out, big time. It’s sad and I feel badly for the baby.

  5. QQ says:

    Can I say something!? : Never Ever Ever Stop Doing Kanye’s Internal Bombastic “Girl…” Monologue, EVER

  6. Pinky says:

    Yes. Moving on . . .

  7. ZigZagZoey says:

    I wouldn’t be surprised if she used a turkey baster to get Kim pregnant according to her schedule….Wonder how long she’s had this show coming up….
    PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF GOD NOBODY WATCH THIS SHOW. I so want it to be an EPIC FAIL of massive proportions.

  8. EscapedConvent says:

    I don’t understand how anyone can possibly give that wicked witch of the West I mean Jenner her own talk show! Who would watch such a show? It makes my head spin.

    I hope it goes down in flames.

  9. Joy says:

    How is Kim surviving without pap lenses pointed at her every day. I thought that was like her version of breathing air.

  10. Sabrine says:

    I’d wait at least three months and then post a photo on Facebook for everyone to see to avoid a feeding frenzy from the paps.

    It’s not the public’s business to demand photos of someone’s child, doesn’t matter whose it is. I also hope Kim doesn’t cave in to Greedy Granny, no matter how much money is involved.

  11. logan says:

    Probably, but who will see them? I doubt too many folks will be watching after the first show. Not planning to watch any. Will just wait for the late night hosts to roast her!

  12. Mayday says:

    kim looks nice in the photo with the pink dress

  13. ctkat1 says:

    I can actually believe this. There have been reports for months that Kris is scrambling to find guests for her show- nobody legitimate will agree to appear.

    She needs a huge “get” for the first show. We all know that Kim would do whatever Kris wanted; the real question is if Kanye will allow it. And if the two of them disagree, which one wins.

  14. Mingy says:

    why does ryan seacrest have so much power. i blame him for the epic mess we call the kardash…i dont want to type that name..

  15. TheOneAndOnlyOnly says:

    Good question Ming; all these characters are morally repulsive, and intellectually empty; yet Pimp momma was on The Today Show a couple of days ago and they treated her like royalty – are all media types spineless douches, too – What possible reason would you want a Lardassian soiling your show? Anderson Cooper was canceled but this imbecile gets a show – Does anyone in hollyweird have a brain or a spine?

    • EscapedConvent says:

      Funny—that’s exactly what I was thinking re: Anderson Cooper’s show getting cancelled. He gets cancelled, & this vile creature gets a show?

      Let’s hope people have some taste, that the show has no audience, & gets cancelled. Every time a Kardashian gets another show, Puppet Master Mom gets more smug.

  16. The Original G says:

    Ugh. Really? We’re dying for baby pics? No, we’re not.

  17. Nerd Alert says:

    When was the appropriate time to have this conversation with Kim? When she told him she was pregnant, right? Or preemptively, since I don’t think they were trying?

    I wouldn’t have children, but if one of my brothers knocked up someone like Kim, I would sit him down and tell him to iron this shit out:

    “I get that you love her, or you want a baby that bad, or WHATEVER. This isn’t about that. Her family is messed up. They will all pimp themselves out for a buck, and she’s the worst. You need to set her straight and tell her you will NOT be pimping out your baby, bro. That little child is not for her or her mother to make money off of. That is YOUR baby and this is something you need to put your foot down on. Etc etc”

    I’m just trying to forget everything I know about them in order to imagine when they should have ironed this all out. Certainly long before now.

  18. Dommy Dearest says:

    Too bad Kourtney isn’t the golden shower child. Her pregnancies and births never got this much attention.

  19. Kim says:

    Just read Kanye album only sold 328,00O Big Fail initially projected for for 500K then projected for 375K

    • A says:

      LOL serves him right. His career is on a downfall.

      First week sales:

      His first album: ~ 440 000
      His second album: ~ 860 000
      His third album: ~ 960 000
      His fourth album: ~ 450 000
      His fifth album: ~ 490 000
      His sixth album: ~ 430 000
      His latest album: ~ 330 000

      Kim K ain’t doing him any favours.

  20. anon says:

    There are a couple things that come to my mind on this. Yes possibly nieve but I don’t think there getting what they think the pics are worth so again we have this spin saying that baby North will be on Kris show.. Just upping the anty and interest. I honesty don’t think they will get this 4-5 million media was hyping. Baby pics are not selling like they used to a we have an over abundance of celeb baby pics coming.

    I also think like someone mentioned above that it is indeed possible there waiting for Kate or Jessica to deliver (yes Jessica) before they show pics, drawing all the attention back to them. Do you all remember when Jessica announced baby # 2 and Kanye later that nite announced that KIM was pregnant. You can bet that once either of these other ladies birth there babys were about to get drama from the K’s.. ITs there show and they are suffocating everyone else in the media.

  21. idk says:

    I don’t think we will see Kim Kardashian until she loses enough weight to make her feel comfortable in front of the paps…otherwise we all know this girl can’t live without cameras ! ORRRRR….they will air pics of the baby on the season finale of their show. I’m pretty sure E Network has reign over this family more than Kris Jenner’s talk show.

    With regards to the baby pics, I think Kim is under Kanye’s grip, but over time, this grip will weaken and they will probably split up because no man in the Kardashian/Jenner clan is allowed to have any sort of power lol. Kanye and Kris will always butt heads.

  22. poe says:

    Maybe they are trying to do a Suri Cruise… She was several months old before they released photos of her. And on Vanity Fair…so maybe they’re hoping for something similar.

  23. jax says:

    Smh…how can I make this comment short & 2 the point as I am sooo ready 4 these awful creatures 2 jus GO AWAY! 1st I realy couldn’t care less about ANYTHING these ppl do…I swear I didn’t even know she had the baby til like 3 days ago…PPL stop indulging on even hating them bcuz some of u spend waaay 2 much time speculating every single move they make! Hell I once heard a “so called” disgusted person make comments bout her toe nail polish…are u effing kidding me! U can’t dislike someone u spend this much energy on…but since im here ranting lol ill say perhaps they will pull a suri cruise but once they did show her its like pimp suri city! I realy wish ppl weren’t even aloud 2 EXPLOIT their kids..some of u should feel jus as trash as kk and the good lord knows I can’t stand her but NO WAY will I make it MY bizness or right 2 gives 2 eff’s what they do…AWFUL!!!
