Kim Kardashian is engaged to Kris Humphries

wenn3219551

Well, I was wrong. I thought Kim Kardashian’s needy, desperate “I WANT TO GET MARRIED” act would end up scaring off poor Kris Humphries, but not so much. According to People Magazine’s cover story this week, Kris proposed to Kim and Kim accepted. Accepted the free media and magazine covers, that is. No, I’m happy for her. She’s wanted to get married – to ANYBODY – for years. She really wanted to marry Reggie Bush. Now she’s settling for Kris, who has the same name (and spelling) as her mom. Sidenote: seriously, how gross is that? I would never marry a man with my mother’s name. Although I’ve never met a dude named Faith.

It was a dream come true for Kim Kardashian when she walked into her Beverly Hills home May 18. Her boyfriend of six months, New Jersey Nets forward Kris Humphries, was waiting in her bedroom on bended knee with four words written in red rose petals: “WILL YOU MARRY ME?”

“I didn’t expect this at all,” Kardashian, 30, tells PEOPLE in an exclusive interview (out Friday) of the romantic, surprise proposal. “I was in such shock. I never thought it would happen at home, and I never thought now.”

Humphries popped the question with a custom-designed, 20.5-carat Lorraine Schwartz diamond sparkler. “I just knew I wanted it to be big,” says Humphries, 26, who, with the help of Kardashian’s mom Kris Jenner, planned an intimate family celebration later that evening.

“Kris really didn’t want a big celebration, but he had jokingly told my mom he’d be fine if there were mini-horses there,” says Kardashian with a laugh. “Later that night at the party, my mom brought out two mini-horses, covered in glitter, for us! It was hysterical!”

Hahahahahaha “I didn’t expect this at all”… except for all of those exclusive interviews she gave where she detailed what she was planning for her wedding to Kris. And my goodness, Kris Humphries can afford a 20 carat diamond?!? I thought he was, like, a minor athlete with no big contract. I don’t know much about sports, obviously.

Oh, and re: the glitter covered-horses… Pink is going to have something to say about that. As she should. Don’t f@$&# cover horses in GLITTER, for the love of God.

    20carets? Ew. I tried on a 2 caret ring once and found it extremely overwhelming.

  2. Happymom says:

    I’m too lazy to google this-but how old is this guy? He looks like he’s about 20.

  3. nanster says:

    If they even make it to the altar (which I doubt), this marriage will never last. Why not take some time and REALLY get to know each other? What’s the rush????

  4. fabgrrl says:

    That is a waste of a tall man.

  5. Jackson says:

    Twenty carats? I think anything above four or five is overwhelming and tacky for anyone – then again this is a Kardashian chick. Maybe she needs the extra weight in front to help balance out her big ass.

  6. Roma says:

    I have issues with this. I’ve said it before – I loved Kris when he played for Toronto. He was fun to drink with. Now I just think of him as a famewhore.

    Sidenote: Do you think Jennifer Love Hewitt is going into meltdown mode? I liked to think of Jessica Simpson, KK and JLH as the trifecta of married desperateness.

  7. Kitten says:

    “I just knew I wanted it to be big,” says Humphries.

    Yea. or she would have said no.

    seriously though, eye roll. this family blows.

  8. brin says:

    Oh wretch….Ryan Seacrest and the momager will take over E with Kim and Kris wedding specials…I’m over this already.

  9. snappyfish says:

    has this family ever heard the phrase “simply elegant?” 20 carats is beyond tacky.

  10. saintdevil says:

    Well, it’s hard to find a big ass rock to complement her big ass ass…

    Let’s just hope that the rock is real. 😉

  11. MeriJaan says:

    Body language tells me, SHE is way more into him than he is into her. She seems desperate to me.

  12. fabgrrl says:

    I don’t think someone having the same name as my parent would creep me out. My parents are “Mom” and “Dad” in my mind, their actual names are secondary. Now, dating someone with the same name as my sibling or child would feel icky.

  13. futureperfect says:

    what? have they been together for more than a few weeks?

  14. lila says:

    He is marrying into that family? He is dumber than I thought. Khloe seems like the only cool one. I would be scared one day Scott is gonna go Jeffrey dahmer on them. That’s a heck of a lot of meat.

    As far as the huge ring, i can’t fault him. He’s probably hoping the glare will prevent him from seeing Kim’s cat face too much.

  15. seVen says:

    Divorce countdown 3….2…GO!

  16. vanessa says:

    now maybe she’ll leave her face alone!

  17. mel says:

    He’s definitely dummer than a 5th grader. Cant understand what he sees in her but SEX.

  18. Addie says:

    I think there is no more than an 0.5% change that this marraige will survive ten years.

    But all the best.. I guess.

  19. fabchick says:

    They do not have the same chemistry that her and Reggie had. I am sorry but he is not hot. I don’t think people will care as much as if this was with Reggie Bush two years ago. I hope they do get married then maybe she will go away once and for all.

  20. gee says:

    Eh I’m happy for her.

  21. Miss Marie says:

    Ha! This is the most ridiculous lady! Funny, she reminds me of Liz Taylor – never satisfied, jumping in and out of relationships. Sick…

  22. SillyOne says:

    This pair will not make it to the alter.

  23. Tia says:

    HE IS SOOOOOOOOOOO FUG, and too friggin tall.. ick.. ewwwwwww FREAK.. POOR POOR KIDS!!! NASTY!

  24. the original bellaluna says:

    Yeah, I’m sure was just as surprised as Leann Rimes was when EC proposed. Spare me the bullsh!t, Lardassian…

    @ Kaiser – Yeah, I wrote on a previous thread awhile back that I couldn’t yell out my mom’s (dad’s, kids’, brother’s, sister’s) name in bed. That is inherently creepy and nasty!

  25. LittleMissSunshine says:

    10 years?! I wouldn’t give this mess a 0.5% chance of lasting 10 months.

  26. Victoire says:

    Poor guy =(

  27. brin says:

    @Roma…yes, I think JLH must be hyperventilating. At least she has 3 engagement rings to keep her company.
    Hi bellaluna….ITA!

  28. k says:

    ‎26 and 30 years old???… yikes!!!! hopefully it will work out (which i doubt)

  29. the original bellaluna says:

    @ brin – HI! *waves* Isn’t that a nasty thought? YUCK!

    @ Tia – I don’t know how tall he is, but Lardassian Kartrashian (made that up myself!) is v-e-r-y short and that also makes him look taller. (Hubs is 6’6″ but since I’m like 5’10” it doesn’t look so weird.)

    @ Miss Marie – hahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! *falls off chair; picks self up; wipes away tears of laughter* You called her a “LADY!” bwahahahahhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha! (She’s a cretin, at best.)

  30. Dorothy says:

    @Roma- yeah, JLH is crying in her chocolate Hagen Daz right now! As for Jessica, she is in the planning stage of her wedding to Eric (she was on Access Hollywood last nite talking about it).
    Well, 2 K sisters down, 1 more to marry off! 🙂

  31. dorothy says:

    She reminds me of Kate Hudson,ready to marry ‘anyone’. Kim’s known this guy for what, 2 weeks?? At least she didn’t pull the Suprise! I’m pregnant routine like Kate did. What clingers.

  32. dread pirate cuervo says:

    He’s a little pale for her tastes, no? They’ll never make it to the altar. & 20 carats is cheesey. It can’t be a high quality stone. It probably looks like a big piece of cut glass.

  33. Eileen says:

    20 carats?? That is insane! I have almost 2 carats in a platinum band and its HEAVY-I can’t even imagine what that thing feels like on. I’m sure for her it feels like $$$$$$$.
    I can’t stand any of these sisters-never seen their shows and think they are gross.

  34. CT says:

    I guess Kris Humphries made 3.2 million last year. Which sounds great to me, but isn’t really all that much when you consider the lifestyle.

  35. Rhiley says:

    The proposal was so unoriginal. If he wanted to really surprise her, he should’ve waited until next NBA season, and during a game against the Lakers, he should have written on the Kiss Cam… “Kim K I Love You! Will You Marry Me?– Kris (not your mom but your boyfriend).” But of course, Kris Jenner went to the bedroom and put the stupid rose petals all over the bed so that they can hurry up and begin filming the new E series: “Kim and Kris (Not Jenner) Getting Married.” Wait for it.

  36. brin says:

    Ryan Seacrest and the Kardashian Klan present “My Big Fat Ass Armenian Wedding”. Check your local listings.

  37. the original bellaluna says:

    @ Eileen – I know, right? Why would someone want a ring too big to wear every day? My engagement (and wedding) ring has very special meaning to me. When I thought I’d lost them, I made a promise to God I wouldn’t take them off again.

    @ brin – Too funny! “Tune in to your local E! network for all the latest on the Lardassian Kartrashian engagement/wedding!” (May Gaycrest burn in hell for this mess!)

  38. constance says:

    Hahahaha! What a joke, that whole family. Boo. Can we get a KimKrisKrackheads week off at CB? I think it would be good for all of us with Rolling Eye Syndrome. kthx!

  39. Lala11_7 says:

    Looking @ Kim’s ex-husband and her past paramours…she DEFINETLY has a type…

    And her fiance is NOT IT…

    (sipping tea and watching from the sidelines)…

  40. Hautie says:

    I am assuming that ring is 20 carats just to make sure it was bigger than Khloe’s.

    There is no way Kim would allow Khloe to have a bigger ring. Since Kim will have to live with the knowledge that Lamar makes more money and has been on a championship team.

  41. mariangela says:

    20 carats is a freaking joke, I mean seriously. That is proof that they’re a famewhore couple. They obviously believe the more carats, the more genuine it is and how Kris wants to impress her and how much he loves her. Barf.

    This is bad news because they’re gonna get a reality show now. I just know it. Barf X 100.

    And why oh why is NO ONE commenting on the utter photoshop mess on the people couple. That girl on the cover looks nothing like Kim.

  42. Maria says:

    I agree with the comments that Kim has wanting to be married since forever. She looks really happy and I hope they have a happy life together

  43. Lukie says:

    @Jackson: Bravo!

    Khloe and Lamar will last longer. I am ashamed that I even have an opinion, but I like that Khloe. She’s the only one I’d actually want to hang out with.

  44. Sumodo1 says:

    Some surprise! Starpulse says this engagement was planned for a long time and the ring was no accident:
    http://www.starpulse.com/news/index.php/2011/05/25/kim_kardashian_kris_humphries_are_eng1

  45. bros says:

    the cover looks like he is helping her rub some farts out of her stomach and when did she get that joker chin? she seriously looks like a comic book version of the joker.

  46. Brittany says:

    We all thought Khloe and Lamar wouldn’t last either, and so far, they are…
    Although I have a sneaky suspicion that mama Kris has something to do with the longevity of that… And I bet she will with this one, too.
    I wouldn’t be surprised if marriage contracts weren’t involved for these guys. Being married to Khloe has been a great PR move for Lamar.
    I wonder how long Kris stays playing for the Nets after this one…

  47. Bernie chan says:

    Finally, Waity kimmy is engaged. Buh shes nt gon b as lucky as Waity Kaity. Dumb ass Family. *hisses*

  48. mary jones says:

    I didn’t realize her boyfriend was such a high paid athlete. I’d never heard of him before he dated Kim. Is he making Kobe money that he can afford a 2 million dollar ring?

  49. ladybert62 says:

    Being the shallow person that I am – I will just say that I find them ridiculous to look at as concerns the height difference.

    And a 2 carat ring? How does she even hold up her hand – he can probably find the ring in the bed before he can locate her tiny self.

    He looks like he is 20 and she is 30 – or am I wrong about the ages?

  50. Tammi says:

    Well im guessing if the ring is 2 carats Kim bought her own ring since humphries makes 2 million a year,no?

  51. guesty says:

    I’d love to see a close up of the ring. Cannot even imagine what that must look like. How tacky.

  52. Mia135 says:

    He doesn’t look too bright. I feel for the baby which hasn’t even been conceived yet.

  53. katiemarie says:

    Poor Kris clearly isn’t familiar with the conventional wisdom – “you can’t change a ho into a housewife.”

    Countdown till E! announces a new “Kim &Kris: Road to the Altar” reality show 5…4…3…2…

  54. lea+ann=crap says:

    does this ho realise that by marrying a younger guy she’s gonna have to wait a while to have kids?in my expirience most men don’t want kids till they’re 30…this will not last

  55. Liana says:

    Yeah, I couldn’t imagine yelling out my mom’s name in a moment of passion. Thank goodness my husband’s name is John (JP) and not Arlene. I did date someone with my dad’s name, though.

  56. Dorothy says:

    I don’t hate because if a man gave me 20.5 carat engagement ring, I would be sure it was paid in full, with a body guard and that my arms are toned to be able to wear it. Guys joke about the decision KH made to give KK the ring BUT if guys had the $$ they would do it too, yet won’t talk about it. Remember Celebitchy friends what Beyonce’s ring was worth…even more! Her rock could crush someone’s skull. Come to think of it, both rings these ladies wear came from Lorraine Schwartz!

  57. lucy2 says:

    LOL Brin.
    Oh please – they’ll be broken up in a few months, I’m sure. I swear all these idiot “starlets” do all this just for the publicity – new boyfriend! engaged! broken up! repeat! She’ll get a few magazine covers and reality show episodes out of it. None of them actually take it seriously. It’s gross.

  58. jo says:

    He is a major dweeb and I hate guys with little noses.. pig noses like Bob Guinney from the batchelor.. especially when the guys are big.. ewwww and he is definately a troglodytic mouth breather type.. he just looks dumb as a box of rocks

  59. whybenice says:

    I’m sure this will last all of three months.

  60. garvels says:

    I wonder if there was a camera crew there to tape the proposal for the Kardashian show. I still think it is a publicity stunt to get back on the covers of magazines since the Middleton girls have taken the spotlight away from the Kardashians.

  61. googa says:

    He just doesn’t look very smart.

  62. D says:

    I like this family, they seem ginuinely close and loving, but the ‘fame whoring’ is getting insane.
    I really hope this wedding isn’t on tv. I’m happy that she is getting married, she’s wanted that for a bit. I hope this works, he’s 26 (whew!) and in the NBA. I’ll pray for her.

  63. OXA says:

    Condolences to the groom, congratulations to the ASS and sympathies to Scott Dickup.

  64. futureperfect says:

    @Garvels: good point. It’s always military strategy with the Kartrashians.

  65. Blue says:

    Well at least they dated longer than Khlomar. I don’t think it took much to rope him into this joke of a relationship. I’m not surprised Kris was willing to bite the bullet. Others don’t need the PR cuz people already know their names. These 2 will be married by the end of the summer & she’ll get preggo quickly to beat Khlomar. I can’t stand this family. Disgusting.

  66. Irene says:

    Best of luck to them, I hope it lasts.

  67. Sumodo1 says:

    Who says the ring was paid for–I bet it’s a loaner (for publicity for Lorraine Schwartz). Mama Kris worked it into “the deal.” BTW, Gwen Stefani supposedly wears 12 carats. That’s even waaay too much. That ring of KK’s will go in and out Lorraine’s safe x-number of times, as per the contract. KK’ll end up saying, “Oh, it was too big for wearing every day. I keep it in a safe” and own something else.

  68. 4Real says:

    4Real he’s FUG…wait…did you say 20 carats!!??

  69. ViktoryGin says:

    Ummm….I’m willing to bet that this one won’t make it to the altar.

  70. TeeTee says:

    everything is scripted with this circus of a family, lol

    I knew whatever sap after Reggie that came along–would feel the pressure..

    its not original, because its scripted and the ring, I’m thinking “donated” for publicity..

    good luck to the fuckery

  71. Quest says:

    Kaiser I think you meant that Kim K is engaged to the idea of a reality spin off with Kris Humphries and if a happens then goodie for her.

    I wonder how long he will last. Kim is always sooo in LOVE until the next penis comes poking around.

  72. Amanda says:

    I’ve never heard of this guy prior to him dating Kim– maybe thats why he began dating her in the first place (raise his profile).

    He looks like a caveman kinda, or one of those people with a pituitary gland problem that causes excess growth of jaw and brow ridge. If they have kids, I feel like they will look like him because of his pronounced features, and that’s kinda sad.

  73. lolas says:

    I seem to be the only one stuck on the logistics of the ‘will you marry me’ written in rose petals. That is obviously a lie. Think about writing one word IN ROSE PETALS and then imagine a whole sentence. Written by THIS GUY. I’m picturing some ripped up flowers and a publicist telling them this is what’s happening.

  74. bluhare says:

    Re the ring. I like the panther note cards Cartier makes, and when I go to the Cartier store to buy them, I always ask if I can try on the biggest rock in the store. (I know I have no shame; it’s an open secret!) Well, they always let me. I’ve had on a 5 carat flawless D color solitaire (retail: $500K) that was TO DIE FOR, and I also had on an 11 (or 13 can’t remember) carat yellow diamond solitaire that was emerald cut I think. It was $300K. And was the first time in my life that I looked at a ring on my finger and thought, “yep, there really is such a thing as too big”. 20 carats I really can’t imagine, and wouldn’t want for a second. I’ll take that 5 carat flawless any day of the week. Well, I will when I win a zillion dollar lottery!

  75. Kim123 says:

    I thought the Kardashians had an exclusive deal with OK magazine ?

  76. KCT says:

    I find it interesting how the media expands the time a couple has been together when there is pregnancy or an early proposal. Six months? I think not.

  77. buckley says:

    Kris looks a bit like Perez Hilton.
    (sorry Kris….and dump the whore)

  78. Amanda G says:

    20 karats? That’s just not necessary.

    “Her boyfriend of six months, New Jersey Nets forward Kris Humphries, was waiting in her bedroom on bended knee with four words written in red rose petals: “WILL YOU MARRY ME?”

    They forgot to mention that there were at least 3 camera men there as well. For the “surprise.”

  79. Cherry Rose says:

    Her jaw is so freaky looking. O.o; She could easily be the face model for the Joker in the Batman: Arkhum Asylum video game.

    It’s not going to last. She’ll realize that she doesn’t get enough coverage for dating him and will eventually split up with him.

  80. eternalcanadian says:

    Is it just me or is it weird Kim is shagging someone with the same name as her mother? “Oh Kris, yes, there Kris, omg, yes Kris!” 😛

  81. painterspirit says:

    Kaiser, I love your mom’s name ’cause it’s my name too! 😀
    Also, about this whole engagement thing, I can’t wait to see how it all ends (in divorce most likely, if they even make it that far)

  82. Camille says:

    Her nose looks smaller then ever. And I bet she wishes she was marrying that cute Bush guy, this Kris guy is fug.
    (Not that looks are everything, but the Kardashian Klan strikes me as super shallow)

    I can’t stand these people.

  83. Tammi says:

    @jo
    LMAO!!!

  84. anonymoose says:

    The engagement will last longer than the wedding.

  85. anonymoose says:

    I remember the recent press release stating KK’s intention to not date for a year when she turned 30. 6 months later: engaged. Obviously she’ll do anything for publicity ~or~ jewelry, no matter how obscene.

  86. Kim says:

    She didnt expect this at all?! Plleassee! She has been pushing every guy she dates for a proposal!

    Im sure he is in on the Kardashian family rule of marrying for money & publicity and getting a cut for going along with it.

    They will marry, maybe have a kid then divorce after the tabloids dont care about them anymore.

  87. Kim says:

    The ring is hideous and tacky EXACTLY like her.

    Its called quality over quantity but none of the Kardashians would understand that.

  88. wifeyskarsgard says:

    I think this whole thing is a publicity stunt. What else can you expect from a skank that got famous off doing a sex tape?! She reminds me of my older cousin, so desperate to marry anyone that even throws a smile at her. Sigh dont get girls who are so obsessed with getting married, live your life and when it happens it happens. You cant force something like marriage to happen because you want it to!

  89. Dea says:

    Oh She did not expect this? I bet she paid for the ring. She wanted to marry so badly and found the famewhore Kris who is like Kim – so they are a match made in heaven. I personally, as much as loathe this family, am happy she got the man she deserved. At least she did not marry a decent man. Any man that will pour $2 mullion on a ring where there are so many people hungry in this world, shows that he is a shallow human being like the Kardashians. At least we are not going to see her naked ass and boobs in the media anymore unless Kris gets turned on by that 🙂

  90. LuckyLilGem says:

    Congratulations to the happy couple! Glad she met a guy who is crazy about her.

  91. Nikki Girl says:

    1. Kris Humphries looks like Lurch from the Addam’s Family.

    2. He also looks fascinatingly stupid. He looks like he would speak in grunts and gestures rather than words.

    3. He is not a star athlete, there’s no way he could have afford that ring.

    4. The ring is ostentatious, tacky, and unoriginal to boot.

    5. “Surprise” my @ss, the People cover came out as it was announced.

    6. Reggie Bush was way better.

    7. She’s desperate and pathetic.

    8. They’ve only been dating for a few months, and most of that time he’s been busy playing basketball and she’s constantly all over the place for her “career”. Hence they barely know eachother.

    9. Mini-horses covered with glitter? Really? Why didn’t they just throw some glitter-covered dwarves into the celebration too?

    What this all adds up to is that this joke of a relationship will never last, and this family is a pack of money-grubbing, fame-humping, vapid morons. Good riddance.

  92. honeyv says:

    @Nikki Girl Ha ha I knew Kris looked like someone, I just didn’t think about Lurch at the moment! And I really think he isn’t able to speak, you know, like in some comedies where the most popular guys in high-school/college are basketball or soccer players and all they can do is look good and date the cheerleaders, when it comes to speaking they’re so stupid. But it’s also unfair from me to tag him, because honestly I’ve never heard him talking.
    Kim acts so fake when it comes to almost everything. And look on People’s cover. I thought she’s pregnant. They photoshopped every inch of her (again). Oh and I guess they put her on a little chair to look that tall near Kris because she obviously doesn’t reach his shoulders even with the highest heels.

  93. Hakura says:

    @Fabgrrl“Now, dating someone with the same name as my sibling or child would feel icky.

    Well, my brother is dating a girl with my name, right now. (Samantha, but we both go by Sam). It was a little ‘weird’ at first, but not ‘icky/gross’. The really weird part is that *her* mother’s name is the same as *our* mother’s name, too. (Cynthia… & It’s not such a common name like Jennifer or Amanda).

    But yeah, I don’t understand how someone can think 6 months is really long enough to be in a relationship with someone before jumping into something as big a deal as marriage is. (Or as big a deal as it should be, anyway.)

  94. ZenB says:

    Why is this on the front cover of People? The Maria story is much bigger! And WTF is up with his eyes. Dude looks blind in a couple of those photos. He should get to Katdassian’s botox doc ASAP!

  95. Julie Vogel says:

    I like what you guys tend to be up too. Such clever work and reporting! Keep up the excellent works guys I’ve added you guys to our blogroll.

  96. Kardashian Fan says:

    I Am So Happy For Them They Make a Fantastic Couple i Was So Excited When I Found Out She Has finally found the one and i wish them a long and happy life they are perfect for them and for all you haters out there if you have nothing nice to say then say nothing at all and the only reason your putting them down is because your jelous. Congrats to Kim & Kris.

  97. Realist says:

    Look at Kris’ eyes in every picture. He looks more like a stunned deer caught in the headlights than a guy madly in love. Kim on the other hand looks like the cat who’s caught the canary! The poor guy should get out while he still can. He is nothing but a prop.

  98. ZED lols says:

    On phone
    Kim:kris, where you? Am waiting for you baby, at the alter!!
    Kris:what? The wedding is today?
