I genuinely have a conspiracy theory about these new Kim Kardashian photos. Kim was photographed yesterday afternoon in LA, looking pretty “pulled together” and wearing a heavy, butt-covering coat on her shoulders. My conspiracy theory: Kim knew her VMA look was seriously struggling so she made sure to call the paps and get her photo taken in a new outfit right away so sites wouldn’t keep reusing the VMA photos. At this point, I think maybe we should stop complaining about the summer coats and not just because summer is coming to a close. I think we should stop complaining because it’s pretty obvious that Kim is really uncomfortable and I genuinely feel sorry for her. Would I be more sympathetic if she stopped pouring herself into too-tight clothes, four-inch heels and bulky summer coats? Sure. But still…after those VMA photos, I understand the coats.
Meanwhile, Closer Weekly claims that Kim is having serious body image issues during this pregnancy (no duh) and Kanye isn’t helping:
During her first pregnancy, Kim Kardashian made no secret of her struggles to cope with her blossoming figure. At her lowest ebb, the star – who gained 3st during the pregnancy – admitted it was “really tough,” saying: “I wouldn’t wish it upon anyone.” And now, just three months before her due date, insiders tell Closer that the 34-year-old star’s body insecurities have returned and are wreaking havoc with her confidence.
As Closer reported last week, Kim ranted at her sisters Kourtney and Khloe following a beach workout in St Barts and accused them of using her to make themselves look skinnier. Now pals say Kim dramatically quit working out after feeling increasingly insecure during exercise classes with slimmer women at Barry’s Bootcamp in Sherman Oaks, LA.
A source says: “Kim looks incredible but she’s feeling very insecure about her body. She thinks she ‘balloons’ during pregnancy and when she compares herself to other pregnant women at the same stage as her, she feels awful. She hated feeling like the biggest person during group classes at Barry’s and hated working out next to all the fitness-mad LA mums.”
To make matters worse, pals say when Kim first confided in her husband Kanye West – who is famed for his controlling ways – he told her the solution was to keep on working out, and then put pressure on her trainers to keep her in shape. A source says: “Kanye is very controlling and thinks he has an answer for everything. If Kim complains about her body then Kanye blames whoever is training her.”
My answer for that problem is to simply stop going to those particular classes and just work out on your own, or with an individual trainer one-on-one. I’m not like CB, who loves to take classes at the gym. I hate working out with other people. I’d much rather do my own thing. But I suspect Kim does need someone telling her what to do and how to do it, so she should just get a trainer to work with her one-on-one and tailor a pregnancy workout that is no-stress and low-impact.
Last thing: just before the VMAs, Kim Kardashian dropped another Instagram advertisement for Diclegis, the drug that supposedly helps with morning sickness. Kim previously posted an ad for the drug then had to pull it off IG because she violated FDA rules. So she reposted it with the FDA-mandated stuff about side effects, etc.

Kim, perhaps if you yourself had not had an extra 25 pounds of plastic inserted into each butt cheek, you wouldn’t look so large and might feel better about yourself? Because, Kim, it is the plastic I see on top of the normal maternity gain.
Can you imagine what their butts are going to look like 20 years from now???
I have always wondered that…who bets that when she’s older she’s going to magically have a smaller perky rear??
Butts and faces! I always wonder what the long-term results of starting Botox/fillers/surgery in your 20s will be. Botox especially. I can’t see regularly paralyzing facial muscles for years on end resulting in anything good. It makes sense that muscles that are in constant paralysis will start to atrophy and shrink – which would in turn alter the way the skin fits the face – so fillers? surgery to tighten up?
*shudder* It ain’t gonna be pretty is all I can say.
just what I was going to say.
don’t like how your body looks? take out those ridic implants.
I don’t think the Kardashians have implants, I think they had fat injected, Khloe used to be much bigger and now she is tiny with a massive butt which she claims she got going to the gym LOL. Nicki Minaj has implants and you can tell the difference.
either way, they are directly responsible for the state of their posteriors, so no sympathy from me!
minaj’s implants are SO OBV.
Loopy is probably right and that’s why Kim’s looks lumpy in the nude. Even with photoshop somehow. Then she goes and pads it as we saw in the VMA look. If those pics aren’t a deterrent to her strange habits then she’s really delusional.
You can’t make your living off of your body and then get upset when people talk and comment even when pregnant. Sorry. Also wearing a giant ugly brown onesie while pregnant isn’t going to help your cause. While no one should shame a pregnant woman and weight gain is needed and natural, she also doesn’t need to be doing daily pap walks and jamming herself into clothes that are five sizes too small so she can still seem sexy even while pregnant. Maybe it’s time they the change the mentality all press is good press and lets go strolling for it. Kims biggest issue is she has valued her worth on how she looks and looks don’t last forever.
good summary. I agree with all of it.
Couldn’t have said it better.
Exactly.
For example: Kim could should moderately more decolletage which would make her look “taller” – e.g. which would give more structure to her look and that would make her look taller. She could play more with colours but instead everything she wears lately seems to be on the black-beige-white range. Many full-figured women use a darker coat / knitted coat / jacket above a lighter or brighter coloured t-shirt / blouse in order to look more structured and “thinner” and it suits them.
Kim’s dress above looks like surgical stockings or flesh-coloured tightpants in 60 den (see-through-proof version for veiny legs and VERY old ladies). Sorry, but I don’t like her look at all.
And no, Kim is not ballooning. She is not grossly fat nor close to that. Yep, she gained weight. But she still looks an awful lot slimmer and curvier than many pregnant women I know. She still has curves! And it is her wrong fashion style and the butt implants which make her look a bit unstylish.
She always wears things that are NOT meant for her body type.
Chokers, high necks, ankle strap shoes – calf length skirts- all things that look good on tall, slender people.
I have a boyish figure, there are things that look terrible on y frame. So, I DON’T WEAR THEM.
Completely agree.
Exactly.. I also feel that majority of her problems are closely related to her narcistic personality and the fact she is all about her looks. This lady will have (is having) very very difficult time getting older year by year. If I was in your heels Kims, I would take time to dig deeper and figure it all out – why do u put so much self worth on ur image and looks.Maybe figuring thia out will make u more relaxed in your daily hustle.. Many women have similar moments at class, event.. feeling aweful. Many chose to deal with it and keep going. It comes from within. U need to find ur happy place too, you are in your 30s, it is time to embrace ur body. It is as good as it gets XOXO
Yep. Totally agree. And most people are criticising her impractical and unflattering wardrobe choices as opposed to her weight. It can’t be repeated enough that her butt enhancements, both surgical and through padding, is what makes her look like a freak. (And her facial procedures but that’s another post.)
First, no excuse for the coats. If she would not put herself in too tight clothing and wear something looser and more comfortable she wouldn’t have to wear the coats. She wore one outfit last time that was a maternity shirt (cotton like a men’s button down shirt) and pants and looked cute. Second, while they said she worked out in St. Bart’s, I saw no pictures of her doing so – unless it will be on the show (which I don’t watch). Third, she has a home gym, why not use it – because she wants to be photographed going to and/or from the gym. Finally, she has body issues because she has been taught her body is her only asset and of course gaining any amount of weight is going to freak her out.
I used to live in LA and didn’t even own a wool coat, much less wear one in the end of August.
Is it a celebrity thing to wear fall fashions when it’s still summer? Saw a photo taken of Gisele Bunchen on Sunday here in NY wearing a long sleeved sweater. It was hot and very humid and it just looked ridiculous.
Good Lord, I was walking around in NYC Sunday and it was so hot! A long sleeved sweater would have made me pass out.
nicolette, she was likely covering up the work she had done on the girls.
So true, NYer! I’m in LA, and we’ve had our air conditioning on for the past week.
What happens to the coats when she gets in the car? Like she has to take it off first, right? But you never see that shot so I am assuming, she gets into the car with the coat still draped on her shoulders. Then what? Does it fall off behind her or does she sit on it? Or does she have a Pregnancy Coat Lackey crouched down in the back seats ready to whip it off her as soon as she gets in the car? I need answers people! And yes I do hate myself for thinking this in-depth about KK.
My guess would be that she had an understanding with the photographers. She tipps them off so it is safe income for them therefore no pics of her getting in or out of the car or coat.
I just don’t understand her style choices. She looks miserable but it’s hard to feel sorry for her in those terribly tight outfits. Just wear some of Kourtney’s maternity stuff! She looked comfortable at least.
YES! At least Kourtney dressed appropriately when she was pregnant with all three of her kids. I think it would be a breath of fresh air if she just chose something flowy and appropriate for the summer months.
Her clothes are stretchy, not tight, maybe not flattering but it’s her deal, not mine. I wonder why people care so much what a pregnant woman wears. Wow – relax. It doesn’t affect you personally.
Oh for God’s sake. You’re PREGNANT. Maybe stop obsessing over your body for nine months and wear comfortable clothes and flat shoes and just relax. No sympathy for this narcissistic whining. She’s short, she has fat injected to all sorts of body parts and she’s going to have fat pregnancies. It’s just nine months. Count your blessings and stfu.
This!!!!!
GNAT-I can not tell you how often I am reading the comments and I find myself completely agreeing with a comment so I notice the name and it’s you…finally had to mention!
Cheers!
Aw, thanks so much! Cheers to you, too!
Phew! I thought no one was gonna say this, thank you.
She’s shilling antinausea pills? The woman does not look like she’s been nauseated to me. She can’t blame fluid, her feet look OK. She’s just eating too damn much. This society does so much commentary about women eating, pregnancy and breastfeeding are almost the only time you feel like you can really eat without being shamed. Which results in crazy weight gain for some women….
On one hand I do feel for her ( a tiny bit), I ballooned up when I was pregnant too. But on the other this is Kimmy and we are saturated with her ( by her choice) in every aspect of her life and so of course we are all observing and commenting about what pregnancy does to her body. It doesn’t help with the outfits she wears and let’s face it her arse is just weird and gets weirder when carrying . If she hates it that much, than why doesn’t she just lay low for her pregnancy and take easy …? Wear low flowing maxi dresses that don’t cling to her…? And that VMA dress was all kinds of wrong.
You’re making too much sense! How else would she “work” if she lied low? (I do agree with your post) she should start a new trend called relaxed pregnancy and start a clothing line and better shoes. But whatever
Can we get a post on Tyga’s song featuring Kylie.
ew. and I mean EWWWWWWW!
@loopy yes! So disgusting. The lyrics are a Predators anthem.
Complete filth and just a few months ago he was claiming he didn’t ‘smash’. It is a shame that its only because she has turned 18 now they are giving us the middle finger, I wish being a predator was treated like other crimes with no time frame just someone to step forward.
That was just awful! I would rather spare people who haven’t seen it, than post a link.
total BS. if she was so insecure she wouldn’t be walking around every single day in stretchy clothes 3 sizes too small.
Yep. This is just a storyline. It’s tired and old.
Here’s a storyline that would get our attention: Kylie goes to college
I’d settle for Kylie reads a book.
Yep. Zero sympathy. She looks awful when pregnant. Didn’t learn what not to wear from the first one. She should just stay indoors and put her feet up and relax. Repeated surgery, implants on top of pregnancies can’t be good.
I can’t believe I’m commenting on her, she’s so dumb and superficial, etc….That being said, exercising during her pregnancy would be the best thing for her, she needs to go to classes geared toward pregnant women. All the other commentors are right, if she would stop wearing clothing that is too tight, maybe she would feel better.
IKR? Only in the idiot mind of a Kartrashian would not going to the gym be the answer to being insecure about her body. The gym should be the 1st place to go to feel body image empowerment! I know it has helped me.
Also, these Kardashians are rich. Don’t they have exercise equipment in their homes? Can’t they use their own equipment in the privacy of their own home so they don’t get photographed going in and out of a club? If the point is to work your muscles and burn calories you don’t have to go to a fancy place to do it….Unless your WANT to be seen doing it overrides your desire for the results.
If she hadn’t inflated her butt she would look better, more proportioned.
I don’t feel sorry for her. She chooses to wear the skin tight clothes and not dress for her body type, so that’s on her.
Agreed
she LITERALLY brought this to herself. she purposely injected fat into her buttcheeks to make them bigger. her body proportions are so wrong and it’s disturbing to look at. you know she extracts her bodyfat from her other body parts and injects them into her butt. her butt size doesn’t match her legs and arms. ew,,,
It’s sad because her younger sister Kylie saw that, and now she’s doing it too. She was flat as a board, which isn’t bad considering the fashion industry likes that kind of thing, but now somehow she has hips and a butt. I know she’s still growing, but these girls have it all wrong.
She looked horrific at the VMAs because what she wore was of a horrific color and the styling and fit plain sucked. If she got some beautiful flowy, comfortable maternity clothes and took off the spanks so she – and the baby – could breathe AND be comfortable, maybe she would be happier in her pregnancy. Lord, it hurts to look at her in those sausage casings she wears. Tell Kanye that when he carries the next child he can dictate the wardrobe!
I don’t understand why these celebrities don’t have complete gyms in their homes. Since they can easily afford it, it makes me think they go to gyms for attention.
I know! And if they wanted to exercise with other people, their friends could come over and they could hire their favorite spin class instructor, or whatever and have classes. That’s what I would do if I had that much money.
I was thinking the same thing! Hahaha I’m pretty sure my home gym would have a snack bar and a tea break!
She does have a gym in her home.
This all these celebrities have gyms in their homes they just want the attention.
Some are just more obvious about it remembers Taylor Ny gym photo ops when she would go in full make up, heels, dress to the 9 and have her bodyguards hold empty gym bags. 😂😂😂
Kim does have a home gym and could certainly afford to hire someone to help her.
The problem is that if she stays home there are no cameras around.
Her pre-pregnancy style was horrible. Why would we think she’d dress any better now.
She needs to lose that nude/brown color.
+1
I posted the same thing above then saw your comment. They totally go to the gym to be seen, to be shown as someone who “works out”.
Yeah I’m pretty sure she didn’t like her VMA’s look. It was pretty much all over her face. Poor thing looked like Barney Rubble.
Barney Rubble.
Flatlined…
Barney Rubble. Hahaha.
Call me crazy, but I thought the VMA look was better than this. Minus the hair. The hair was awful.
Being a pregnant pear is the worst, when your entire basis of body esteem rests on waist to ass ratio.
That’s a good point! I’m just grateful she appears to be wearing a bra …
She did look awful at the VMA show. But that was because the outfit was awful. She’s pregnant and has the kind of body that does expand a lot, especially because of stuff she’s done to it. Other pregnant women manage to dress nicely during this time of their lives. She needs to stop listening to Kanye and rehire whoever helped her dress before she started paying attention to his silly advice. And if she doesn’t want to “work out”, then she shouldn’t. Kanye has no right to interfere, assuming he actually does. This is Liar Liar Pants on Fire Kim Kardashian, so who knows if any of this is true. I doubt Kim works out except when a camera is pointed at her.
I have a feeling she does the bare minimum now. Remember when she was really slim, and was constantly talking about her new diet and fitness regime? I mean, she really should embrace that her body is no longer the way it used to be. Or, she can start working out as she did before. But the combination of the awful clothing and her weird body shape is doing her no favors.
This is a problem of her own making- she has distorted her body beyond recognition, and continues to wear unflattering and uncomfortable clothing and shoes.
And if she feels like everyone is staring and making fun of her, maybe she should just stay home once in a while! Spend the day playing at home with her kid, maybe?
I can’t believe I’m saying something nice about this hopeless trick, but I think she looks lovely a bit heavier, and especially pregnant. It’s a pity she has messed with her face so much, when she was such a pretty girl before, because now her face and body seem a bit mismatched. But I still think it’s sad that people are still harping on about her weight when she should be enjoying being visibly and beautifully pregnant.
I’m sure she’s got an amazing gym at home, no? Get your trainer to your house and work out there. They’ve got an insane amount of money so that’s not an issue, obviously.
But then she wouldn’t be able to do her pre and post workout strolls in front of the paps which to her is everything.
OK, so she has done every plastic surgery you can think of to her face and body. But were supposed to believe she works out? Puleez. If she makes an attempt, its prob only for kanye and/or her show. This is a storyline. Anyone who has skinny arms and legs with no muscle tone, does not work out. She’s lipo’d the fat away, except for where she wants it.
I agree she doesn’t look like she works out and she is paying the price now for all of the plastic surgery she has had. I wonder now if she thinks it was worth it.
Agree with you both but she will really be paying the price for all this tampering in about 20 years…
IF SHE CANT FIX THAT ASS NOW can you imagine how that will age??
Poor girl. I’m no Kim fan but I’m her heigh, I struggle with having a curvier body type – I don’t mean bigger, but not naturally skinny and willow – and pregnancy was rough. No matter how careful I was about food I ballooned. When you’re short and short waisted it doesn’t help either. She’s pregnant, leave her alone.
I’m sure you didn’t inflate your butt, though, and parade around in skintight clothes.
She opened her life up for public consumption, so this is what she gets. She wants the pap walks and publicity.
This ^^
@minx, totally agree. She really does it to herself and I’m a total believer in not making fun of pregnant women.
I’ve always been on the fence about whether or not Kim and Khloe’s butts were real because why in the world would anyone actually willingly make their butts look that way?! But I saw an article yesterday that broke it down and really proves they’ve had the Brazilian butt lift procedure done. Khloe’s is even more obvious because she had it done after she was famous, whereas there are less pictures of Kim prior to her procedure because she had it done before the fame.
My point is that this is why they get criticized. I can’t help but cringe when I hear people make fun of pregnant women, but she really does bring it on herself.
I’m currently pregnant, and have an hourglass figure. My body is expanding everywhere, and it’s too early to tell everyone that I’m pregnant, so I just look like I’m getting fat. I had to buy all new scrubs, because my scrub pants are starting to fit like yoga pants (not pretty). I feel like a parade float.
Now I understand why Kim looks so miserable during her pregnancy. I live in Orange County (just south of LA), and can actually relate to wanting to wear a trench coat in our sweltering weather.
a) congrats, hope everything is smooth sailing for you, and b) EMBRACE THE CAFTAN
@embertine, thank you! I’m going to hit up the labor day sales this weekend for some pregnancy clothes. So far, so good on the pregnancy front. 🙂
Mle428-I live in Orange County too. It’s hard because everyone here is so into fitness and just stare at you if you dare to wear anything drapey. Yoga pants and loose blouses are your best friends! Good thing you are able to wear scrubs, that should help out until you are ready to share your good news. Congratulations!
Kim, for God’s sake, just surrender to looser fitting proper maternity clothes and more appropriate shoes. You’re just not that special to think your zaftig body, pregnant, will look good in all this skin tight stretchy nonsense. Just “be pregnant” and celebrate what your body is actually doing –creating a fully formed baby. Plus, the public will like you a whole lot better and a lot of the ridicule you’re experiencing –which can’t be fun– will go away.
So true Tracy
“Kim ranted at her sisters Kourtney and Khloe following a beach workout in St Barts and accused them of using her to make themselves look skinnier. ” I cannot think of anything more vapid and ridiculous than this. Is this really how this tribe spends their days?
Yes this is how they spend their days. They also take selfies.
If that really bothered her, imagine how her head must be exploding at Kylie becoming the new improved Kim.
Its really pathetic.
How do you think Kim will be as her daughter grows into a beautiful young woman? We ain’t seen nothing yet.
No sympathy. She’s blown her body porportions out of all reason with fat fillers/implants, and then she insists on dressing like she’s a size 0, even while heavily pregnant. Kim K has no idea how to dress her body, and never has, and the problem is exacerbated in pregnancy. If she wants to wear the haute couture stuff, then, once she’s had her baby, she needs to have the fillers/implants taken out of her boobs and butt. She’d still be curvy, but she’d be less exaggerated and the stuff she’s trying to wear would work better. (Like when Posh Spice took her out her bolt-ons to be more High Fashion! for Anna Wintour.)
I won’t rag on Kim for anything other than the coat thing. I live in the next town over from Calabasas and it is hot as f***. Like, I have been sleeping on my apartment floor it’s so hot. Bitch is wearing WOOL COATS.
The thirst is real with Kim
Sorry (not), absolutely no sympathy here. When I look at those photos all I can think of is “wide load comin’ through!”. Take all that “hard earned” money and hire a personal trainer at home.
lol!
Her VMA dress was SO bad. Those pockets were clearly an attempt to distract from her bump but WHY????? So misguided. And her boobs. They’re not even sexy, they’re milk-filled mammaries and its gross how she has them on display always. But mothers can’t breastfeed in public. So jacked.
i have never understood why with all their money they dress so budget looking. They even manage to make expensive clothes look cheap – maybe that is a talent?? I know if i had their money i’d have a stylist fit me properly and look chic every time i left the house. I really think they suffer from narracistic disorder and body dismorphia do they have special mirrors that show them something we don’t see??? (sorry for spelling mistakes i’m too lazy to google ). She needs to call Jessica Simpson and borrow her pregnancy dresses…she to is short and curvy yet managed to look cute pregnant
Her VMA look was AWFUL! I would fire my glam squad. AWFUL!
and .. january 2016 she will speak all the time about her new diet ………………………
soooooooooo we are supposed to believe that she does those grueling workouts at Barry’s bootcamps relgiously…with no muscle tone in any part of her body.
yeah, ok
like Khloe who “exercises” every day and has no muscle tone in legs or arms??? Is it all ASS work ?
Have you noticed that the whole family. with the exception of Rob and Kendall, have major body issues? They all want attention and if it involves jacking up their face, butts, or boobs they will do it. They all looked so beautiful and normal at one time. You can tell Kim has an issue with her butt. Why would someone wear coats during the summertime? As everyone has pointed out she wears super tight clothing and it only accelerates her size. You can’t tell which body part is pregnant her butt or her tummy. You can only imagine how she is going to look when she hits her 40s and 50s.
“looks incredible” my arse. She looks like a pregnant woman who can’t accept that she is pregnant and trying to dress sexy after having spent literally 2-3 hours putting on make up. I mean it’s insufferable. Earlier they had said she had all sorts of fittings for pregnancy and experts so she can be dressed better for this pregnancy. How? What did they tell her just pile on the uncomfortable spanx, heels and coats . Yeah brilliant suggestions.
I mean she is already past her prime ( pregnancy irrelevant) but she still tries to act like she is the ultimate sex symbol. If she is so hot how come and every picture of hers has to be photoshopped to hell and back. She can’t even enjoy her pregnancy at all bc she is so bothered by her body and selfishness. She should never have procreated. That family shouldn’t reproduce. I mean Nori is adorable now, but I already know she will be an awful, dysfunctional adult being raised in that family
She is totally past her prime. She had a great run of being the “ultimate sex symbol” but that ship has sailed. Who is she trying to be sexy for? Does anyone really think she’s all that? She’s became a laughing stock and a caricature.
Since they are filming while she’s pregnant, can you imagine her blubbering over her plastic bowl of salad in every scene about how miserable she is pregnant? Why doesn’t the girl stay home just one day and cancel her pap strolls? She looks awful poured into tight clothing and shoes. She could wear maternity clothes and start her own line. That look along with the coat is utterly ridiculous. Stay home famewhore!!
You can’t have it both ways! You’ve put yourself out there ad nauseam in every form of undress to completely naked. You created your own mess and believe it or not, time waits for no one and marches on. You will never what you were 10yrs ago. Give it a rest and dress for your pregnancy and stop exposing your bits 24/7. I have no sympathy, none!
I miss the days when Kimmie was just a closet organizer for her more affluent friends. And then I miss the days when she was just the girl who got peed on by the brother of a famous singer that I used to like when I was in high school. That’s all.
You know you have a problem when you aren’t actually wearing the coat — just hanging it over your shoulders to hide your butt.
I wouldn’t want any woman to feel bad about their body, but when you have all the money and resources in the world and you continuously dress in ill-fighting attire then I don’t feel as sorry for you.
No one who loves and cares about you lets you walk out of the house looking absolutely ridiculous in hideous clothes.
Her stylists need to be FIRED. Her husband is a motherf*cker pushing this shat line of couture on her for public shaming.
If shes stupid enough to think this is all ok, then she gets what she deserves from.the public. If she is delusional enough to believe other fame whore moms to be, will follow her lead in this gross injustice of needle and thread, she better get a pair of glasses , TO SEE THAT NO ONE ELSE IS WEARING THAT SHAT .
