A former publicist who worked for Kim Kardashian from 2007-2009, Jonathan Jaxson, did a radio interview in which he claimed that Kim Kardashian’s engagement ring “from” Kris Humphries was “very similar” to a ring that she used in 2007 to stage a fake engagement with Reggie Bush. This is supported by paparazzi photos taken at the time, which show Kim wearing a ring that looks identical to her engagement ring with Kris. Jaxson also said that Reggie was not aware that Kim set him up for fake engagement rumors, and that “these type of antics” ended their relationship. He also said that Kim had a whole plan to get famous, that she wasn’t fazed by her sex tape at all and that it wasn’t released without her permission. (He has no insider information about that, other than the fact that she was barely upset when it came out.) In response, Kim is predictably suing Jaxson for defamation for $200,000. Her lawyer, Marty Singer, claims that Kim barely worked with Jaxons, that Jaxson is lying and that he signed a confidentiality agreement that prevents him from talking to the media. In response, Jaxson says he was given a confidentiality agreement by the Kardashians but that he never signed it. He also published video, photos, email and documentation showing he had a close relationship with Kim.

TMZ had contacted me last night regarding a story that I was being sued by Kim Kardashian for $200,000 and requested an immediate comment. Only because they wish to share a VERY small snippet, I want to provide the full statement I gave them. Why would I have thought they would have been fair to post my side?:

To the best of my knowledge, I have never signed an agreement dealing with confidentiality with Kim Kardashian. I have an agreement in my possession that does not have either parties signature on it.

When I have been contacted by the press to give comments on the wedding, my opinions have been from my personal point of view based on the statement she posted on her blog and conversations with mutual friends.

Regarding her engagement ring from Kris, I have stated that is was quite similar to the same ring I staged with her for a story we released to the press back on December 26, 2007. It was a planned shoot as she exited XIV Jewelers in Beverly Hills with the 7-carats on her right hand for media speculation that she was engaged, as she exited the jeweler.

I have not worked with Kim in a professional capacity in a couple of years and have absolutely no ill feelings towards her what so ever. The work we did together, I did as an acting publicist/friend on the side “behind-the-scenes” for her from 2007-2009. The pictures online, along with a video blog, and audio together speak for themselves.

The book I am publishing, “Don’t You Know Who I Am Yet,” chronicles one’s 15-minutes of fame and is a behind-the-scenes look from a publicists world in Hollywood and my dealings with several of the clients in which I have worked with and those I have met along the way. Kim was and always has been only a very small part of that equation.

I still have not been served with any papers regarding this matter.

It seems like just about everyone is over this chick and calling for her fifteen minutes to be up. Michael Bublé ripped on Kim during a recent performance in NY. He said “Please welcome Kim Kardashian [to the stage],” then joked “Nah, just [bleeping] with you! That bitch isn’t coming on my stage.” The NY Post has this story, along with the detail that he then dedicated a song to Kris Humphries.

Meanwhile there’s a new book by a former NY Daily News writer called Celebrity, Inc.: How Famous People Make Money. It examines how Kim Kardashian was able to best her former bestie, Paris Hilton, in earnings. Now, however, author Jo Piazza says that “everyone thinks [Kim is] a joke” and that her “shelf life” is almost over. Unfortunately, there are more Kardashians available. Kim’s little sister Kendall may soon take her place according to Piazza. Kendall just got a $90,000 Range Rover for her 16th birthday. She’s got to be fully indoctrinated into the khurch of Kardashian, where money rules and appearances matter above all else. She’ll soon be getting lip injections and Botox, if she hasn’t already.

Here’s Kim flying out of Atlanta and into LA after filming for a Tyler Perry movie. There’s a petition to eliminate Kim from this movie, just as there’s a petition for E! to cancel all the Kardashian shows.
