If you glanced through Kim Kardashian’s Instagram lately, you know she’s been going through a “headless body selfie” phase. I guess she was on vacation for a big chunk of the past several weeks, so there are lots and lots of bikini selfies. Very carefully posed and (I believe) Photoshopped. Anyway, the header photo is something Kim posted last week, writing: “Our baby girl finished one week of swimming lessons today then took her 1st steps right when she got out of the pool!!!! Mommy & Daddy are so proud of you!!!! Photo cred: Daddy.” Do you believe her? Do you believe Kanye was even there? I kind of doubt it. Everybody’s saying Kim and Kanye have barely spent any time together since getting hitched:
It has only been a few months since Kim Kardashian and Kanye West tied the knot in a lavish Italian wedding ceremony, but already there seem to be some major issues brewing in their marriage. Hey, the honeymoon has to end at some point, even for rich and famous people.
The root of the couple’s first big bit of marital woe seems to be their very different priorities, with Kanye wanting to focus on his new album and going on tour, and Kim wanting to concentrate her energy on their family, especially daughter North.
Making matters worse, Kanye has decided he wants to pull a Beyonce and drop his album much earlier than expected, requiring even more work and time away from his wife and baby.
“Kanye has been working hard on the album for a lot of this year, but he’s known for cutting deadlines so it’s better if he can just put it out at the last minute,” a source told The Sun.
Kanye may need to change his album plans for the sake of his marriage however, as Kim seems to have reached her boiling point. As In Touch reported last week, the reality star really let Kanye have it during a recent argument, showing that she is not afraid to stand up to the rapper, who seems to always get his way.
“Kim railed on Kanye, saying that since they’ve been married, he’s been away from her more than when he was single,” an insider told In Touch.
I don’t believe Kim says a damn thing to Kanye about how much time he spends away from her. Just like I don’t think Kanye says anything to Kim about how much time she spends away from North. I think Kanye and Kim just feed off of each other’s narcissism and it’s all just a superficial vacuum of dumb. But I do believe Kanye probably wants to copy Beyonce and release his album all of a sudden, with very little advanced promotion. Everybody wants to copy Beyonce these days.
Here’s a photo of Kim attending a birthday party over the weekend in LA:

She can be mad all she wants. Kanye set this precedent with his last album while Kim was pregnant.
@Kaiser :/ There were pics of Kanye with Kim at Joe’s house in mexico LOL they’re still on her instagram… so he definitely was there with Kim and Nori… so people can stop the conspiracy theories lol even Daily Mail reported it.
So what? Spending five minutes together in Mexico hardly counts as being together as a married couple. I call BS all around, they don’t want to be together, like usual, and it’s not a problem for anyone but Kimmy has to lie about it to project her fake image for her fake show. She’s full of Botox, fillers and crap, just like everyday.
Kim seems to me to be the poster child for a whole generational problem! Selfies are everywhere, she is far from being the only one indulging; all my friends do them, instagram is infected with them. Whenever you criticize this trend people call you “jealous”, but it seems to me that being obsessed with something so transient as “youth” or “beauty”, however you define it, is a passport to misery and unhappiness. There will ALWAYS be someone hotter and younger. I keep wondering why I spend so much time thinking about my looks when there is so much poverty and sadness around me- escapism? laziness? vanity? Kim makes me wonder about my own narcissism I guess.
Agree with all of this
Sara I don’t do Selfies either and think they look silly.I think you are right.They are a generational problem.
I would argue that they are not a generational problem and in some cases have a positive purpose.
For a long time I have dealt with self esteem issues like many women. I actually found this “selfie” trend really liberating. I had control of my image, I could take pictures of myself that I found to be flattering, beautiful, and even sexy. I always HATED seeing myself in pictures but having these flattering selfies was helpful and empowering for me. Of course it doesn’t solve a self-esteem issue, but it can be a tool in the right direction.
On the flip side, when obscenely rich and out of touch celebrities constantly debut selfies for the world to see.. Indicating to their fans that appearance is all that matters and staying “young an hot” is all one should aspire to.. Well THAT is a problem.
Anyone can be “hot” on instagram. With the amount of filters and photoshop that is available, a person can make themselves look perfect and look nothing like how they do in real life.
Kim has perfected the side profile fake kiss. She makes sure it’s perfectly shot to give allow her eyelashes to be showcased. I noticed it in her wedding pictures. No love or emotion in her kiss. Just a perfectly captured smooch.
I see…. yes I see, it’s all about how the light hits the cheekbones.
People should learn that a person’s value is not in their appearance. It’s easy to be superficial and want to be with the pretty people but once you get any kind of maturity, you recognize youth is fleeting, beauty is the luck of the genetic draw, and the most interesting and amazing people are not the Kim Kardashian’s of the world. Beauty is skin deep, youth is fleeting and your life should not be wasted staring in the mirror and self-hating because of twits like Kim and her ilk. Kim is an idiot, who will always be unhappy, don’t follow her example, she will not age well and she will never have a satisfying relationship. Life should be embraced and celebrated at every age, if we’re lucky, we get to take the whole ride, not just youth, which often isn’t even the best time for most people.
Just another PR stunt from the Kardashian camp trying to set KW up as the bad parent and husband when we all know that neither Kanye or Kim have bonded with their child. I think they both are happier apart then together anyway. Kanye gets turned on my looking at photos of Kim and often time the real thing is not as good as photo. And North keeps letting the public know that she doesn’t know either one of her parents and Kim is doesn’t like being called the worst of anything. Nope I do not buy a word of this.
ha! she’s probably glad to get him out of the house.
Weren’t there pics of them on the beach together? But I think it’s probably exhausting to listen to him so I’m going with her feeling relieved that he’s not there.
Yeah I saw pap photos of them together, and with the baby on the beach and by the pool. In different outfits too so it looks like they’ve been together and interacting with the baby for several different days (although you never know, might have just been outfit changes!)
I don’t think Kim is putting any “energy on their family, especially daughter North.” I think Kim is all about filming that dopey show and taking selfies.
While Kanye is busy, and the nanny is raising little Norri, Kim could do something like get an Education and become a Kardilogist!
Maybe I missed them, but the only pictures I saw of them were one moment on the beach. Nothing else.
Just curious. I know there was a lot of hype about Beyonce’s album and the release.. but how are the sells going. I swear I don’t think there is ONE song that I love like I did when Single women came out. Not saying she doesn’t have hits.. but the songs are not as EVERY Where.. not viral mixes or anything.
Her nose is looking Jackson-esque
I definitely see Kanye locked away in a soundproof recording studio, day after day, madly working on new beats and lyrics. It’s just so HILARIOUS how he can claim that he is so obsessed and crazily attracted to Kim, but we have barely seen them together since the wedding. If I was as attracted to a man as Kanye claims he is attracted to his wife, I wouldn’t give that man space to breathe.
She’s an object to Kanye, it’s easy enough to leave an object even if you “love” it. These two narcissists do a lot of talking but their actions speak much louder, this is no marriage, they’ll never live together, just like her last “marriage.”
I saw the picture of her laying in a grey bikini.Photo shopped to death.Kim if you are so proud of your “curves”show the real you.I rant on her at times and I need to stop.I dislike this family and everything they are about.It is not family now it is about money.
Well does anyone really believe that they are in love and its a real marriage? I mean seriously, they probably do not care if they see each other that much except for here and there to make it seem like they are in love and together. I realize we didn’t get to see all the pics she took for him but I know if it was me I would include some of our baby as well and how are those really selfies when someone is taking them of you posing. Its just her excuse to have someone take pictures so she can post them or have the media outlets use them. Plus who brings hair and make up on vacation and for something like this. It all seems so weird to me!!
I believe he loves her as much as he can, and in this way he can. I just dont think it is in the same way that the rest of us love someone else.
I just posted below that I do not believe anymore that this is a real marriage. It’s all for the publicity, power, and money they can get out of it.
I agree with TX, I think he thinks he loves her but I don’t think either one of them is capable of having an actual relationship. She is using him, quite obviously, she kept him on a string until she needed him and now she will ride him until he drops. Kim doesn’t care about anyone but herself. When these two implode it will get very ugly.
She’ll for sure leave him if Beyonce and Jay Z split up. She won’t let Beyonce get all the “single lady” headlines. Not only that, but I bet PMK is hoping Jay and Beyonce split so Kim can try to get with Jay (lol ain’t gonna happen though).
I’ve never gotten the impression that she is all that into him, and I don’t think she cares what he does except as it affects her “brand.” He says he worked for seven years to get her; she couldn’t wait for the honeymoon to be over, she was so bored with him. He’s a piece of delusional work, but I kind of feel sorry for him.
I agree, he’s a jerk but I feel bad for him because it is so obvious she is using him and doesn’t have any feeling for him at all.
I think one of two things happened with that picture:
1. Kanye did really take it, and Kim feels the need to let us know because of all the talk about them spending no time together
2. Kanye didnt take the photo and she just said he did to try and save (kat)face.
he probably did take the picture seeing as he was in Mexico with them
I think Kim is very happy that Kanye is not around much. This girl hates being married. Also, does anyone really believe Kim and Kanye were present for North’s first steps ? I bet the Nanny saw North’s first steps weeks ago !
Also, did anyone catch the show last night? I couldn’t resist. I can’t believe Bruce’s son Brandon and Kim kissed when they were younger. God Kim, is there no man that is off limits to you ???
Kim and Kanye are both discovering that the reality of wanting something and having it is very different. They are not living together as a married couple with a child. That is not what a newly married couple with a child would be doing. You spend time together, you build a life together.
is it true that they are selling that house they were building.
Yeah, they’re selling it, come on, you knew they were never going to live there, Kim will never leave PMK.
wooow, so much botox not enough face
How many vacations does this girl need? Her life is one big vacation.
This weekend I heard some “inside” gossip about Kanye and Kim. My close friend has a client whose grown child works for Tom Ford. My friend’s client saw him a couple of weeks ago for an appointment and she told him that her kid helped out with the Kimye wedding, and that everyone in the fashion world knows that Kanye is gay and that the wedding was a big sham to cover it up and build publicity for the two of them (and that Kim only married Kanye for the fame it brings her, not because she loves him). I’m trying to keep this vague to protect the gossiping parties haha.
I’m inclined to believe this, especially with all of these “Kim and Kanye are apart and fighting” stories the past couple of weeks to hide the fact that they aren’t actually together.
This is interesting. I always found it weird whenever Kanye talks about Kim, he always has to make it clear how much “Kim turns him on”…that’s all he says over and over again. Like he’s trying to make sure everyone knows females turn him on. If he is gay, he should own it. And we all know Kim uses EVERYONE. No surprise there.
@Me – I used to notice his videos seemed to be trying a little too hard to show just how much he loves big butts. This was way before Kim but I remember seeing some and it just seemed overkill and didn’t have the ring of authenticity that many other male singers have in their videos about nearly naked women. As the poster said below he could be bi-sexual too bit one thing we so know is neither of them is having much sex if we are supposed to believe this is a legit monogamous marriage since they are rarely in the same city together. Another thing about Kim is why would she not be in the pool with her daughter during her swim class? Or are we supposed to believe Kanye was the one doing the mommy & me class. Also this is yet another pic of Kim where they baby does not look interested. Also think it is telling that her daughter just learned to walk well after her first birthday. Goes to show how much time the poor thing spends strapped in a car seat. So sad.
@TG – i don’t think that kim would get into a pool, it would mess up her makeup. haha
but, to be fair, babies have their own timelines when it comes to walking etc. some walk well before 1 year, some after. my son, for example, started crawling at 12 months and walking at 13 (before that he scooted around), through no “fault” of anyone. 🙂
I’m inclined to believe some version of this. Maybe Kanye is bi? To each his own, anyway.
BTW, whatever you say about him, he is an artist and he is committed and passionate about his work. (Leaving aside whether it’s your cup of tea or not.) Also, he’s going to need to keep bringing in the bread to keep up with the bills that this farce is generating.
interesting. i guess whatever works for them?
this made me think of “arrested development” and tobias funke – “we’re totally having heterosexual sex.” lol
You mean bi? Because he did sleep with her, at least once ☺. Did your friend say why they made a baby when their marriage is a sham?
1) Have you not heard of in vitro? It’s a method that facilitates pregnancy without all the effort of coordinated sexytimes in an effort to fertilize an egg. Google it.
2) Do you not know how profitable celebrity babies are? They are also a valuable and effective tool in legitimizing otherwise questionable relationships.
3) I bet she wishes she’d faked her pregnancy.
This rumor has dogged Kanye for quite a while, I don’t know, if he were into guys it might be hard for him to just come out because, sorry to be prejudicial but, my impression is that being gay is not so okay in the hip-hop world, which explains the need for a fauxmance with the overly-sexualized Kim K. I actually hope it is an arrangement of some sort because I’m worried about how he’s going to react when Kim ditches him, he seems very emotionally vulnerable to me and Kim is a cold-hearted bitch.
@hunter – chill the eff down and take a seat, I asked a question because I was CURIOUS and it was directed to littlestar, if you have issues and have to be aggressive I’m sure there are facilities who will take you, GOOGLE IT ;-).
I love this site and read it daily, even though I rarely comment, and I don’t need you to mess with my favorite hobby, with that being said run along and be a prick somewhere else.
Yeah I think he’s bi, all those women were not his beards, but all of them said the same thing – he sometimes can be aggressive and insecure.. When I watch his tv interviews something is off with his body language..
Anyway he doesn’t LOVE her, he’s in love with her and she kinda turns him on, that’s superficial and it can’t last :-).
@littlestar I would like to know little bit more 😉
i wonder if this kat faced mask is sold at halloween stores?
Sorry, but the surprise album release is not Beyonce’s invention. I’ll give the example of Radiohead with In Rainbows, which was actually much more innovative because it was not priced and allowed each consumer to price the album at their own discretion upon purchase. I believe a couple other artists actually pulled this move before the two mentioned examples as well.
“Photo cred: Daddy.”
Remember, this child’s true Daddy is the same one that fathered Rosemary’s baby, so yes, I believe the credit 🙂
Ha! The only thing I noticed about any photo with North covered or not she always looks sad. She never looks happy or laughing or anything. This kid doesn’t know her parents and I will bet money on it. Some day she will understand who they are but I bet she will never feel comfortable around them.
She’s not looking at Kim in that photo, she’s not engaged. That’s why (my guess) the towel is over her head – to distract from Nori’s discomfort and bewilderment.
I feel so bad for little Ignori. Hopefully, she has some wonderful nannies who truly love her and will teach her to be okay with herself.
I am sad that I know this, but I happened to be on twitter right when Kim posted the photo. She originally posted it to say, “MY baby girl”…and “I’m so proud of you”. No mention of kanye. I saw it the moment it was put up, didn’t think anything of it, then saw it again a few minutes later when it was changed to be all “our baby girl….we’re proud…photo credit daddy”. I wondered at the time why she changed it. If her people made her, Kanye’s people, kanye himself? It was odd.
You should hire a private detective and launch a full scale investigation…I will await the results from your Private Eye.
@Ayn-Rand LOOOOOL omg best comment of the day
The body in these white-dress pics does not even resemble the body in her recent Instagram-bikini pics. Her ass looks huge in this white dress. And everything she wears is always so bunchy around her midsection. Hideous.
Her face is tragic. She is not even pretty anymore. She just looks freakish.
Kim doesn’t have an actual job and North is a baby who isn’t in school, so I don’t understand why she can’t be with Kanye wherever he’s holed up recording or on tour.
Exactly. God forbid, she be away from her Mummy for even a second!
I think Kanye and Kim have this special union, they DO love and are committed to each other, AND they have a business union, Kanye believes that with this family unit he can build an empire and Kim sees this union as an opportunity to transition away from KUWTK upward to greater things.
Both Kanye and Kim are about to age out of their respective revenue fields, so they both need to transition.
A marriage made of caviar and wealth opportunity, for both.
If this were the case, why did it take Kim seven years to accept
Kanye as boyfriend and potential husband material? Simple answer,
she ran out of options. No one would touch her with a 10-foot
pole after the Humphries debacle! It was almost like she was
black-balled (no pun intended) from the NBA and NFL! JMO.
*SNORT* black-balled…hahahaha!
You win the internets today 🙂
I will admit I watch KUWTK to see how low they can actually go but I am a week behind because I save all of my crap TV for the weekend where I can enjoy it with some wine.
I just saw the show where Kim was very excited to announce to the sisters that she and Kanye made the cover of Vogue … and you could hear crickets … I’m not a fan of Vogue and I haven’t looked at it for years but I wonder how the sales actually did for that cover? I think Anna Wintour hit a very low mark by putting them on the cover but it looked like none of the sisters gave a crap and it was pretty funny.
This photo made me laugh- made me immediately think of wrapping a struggling cat up in a towel when there is something you absolutely must do to them without trauma (to the human)… She’s got the kid’s face and body under wraps so we can’t see that the kid is trying to get away from her or starting to cry or reaching out for her nanny or great-aunt. Now that Nori can walk – good luck with your photo ops, Kim. The kid can now get away from you on her own.
Not surprised that Nori “took her first steps”. Or were they just the first steps Kim happened to witness? I’m not sure if Kim actually noticed the tot was crawling, she only talked about her sleeping. Regardless, I knew Nori would be walking soon once pics of Princezilla George ambling along in a crush-the-villagers pose came out.
