Kim Kardashian

Kim Kardashian is many things: an attention-starved, personality-less waste of large breasts; a former sex tape star; a lying spokesperson.

But a pill popper? Someone who turns to Valium and other sleeping medicine when the pressures of work and romance become too much? This is where the reality star draws the legal line.

Sources confirm to TMZ that Kardashian has demanded her attorneys take action against any outlet that runs with the cover story in this week's NW, an Australian tabloid that reports Kim has a drug problem.

The story quotes an anonymous source who says Kim has regularly "self-medicated" in the face of stress, starting when she first split with Reggie Bush.

Khloe Kardashian supposedly discovered a bottle of pills recently and has threatened to tell Kris Jenner and Kanye West unless Kim takes care of the issue.

Kim, meanwhile, is spending the week at the Cannes Film Festival. On Wednesday night, she and Kanye made their red carpet debut at that annual event.

We've seen Kim Kardashian and Kanye West on the streets of New York City... on a video shoot... and in a trailer for Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

But this kontrived kouple finally settled in to where Kim is most komfortable last night: on a red karpet, posing for photographers at the Cannes Film Festival for the premiere of Cruel Summer, a moved produced by West.

The flick centers on a Lamborghini car thief who falls for a beautiful blind Arabic girl and attempts to help her see again.

Based on Kanye's expressions in these photos (click on each to enlarge), it appears that he may finally be seeing what he's gotten himself into. Or who, we should say.

According to a new report, Kanye West is doing all he can to lock down the Hottest Woman in the World.

The latest issue of OK! Weekly quotes an insider who says Kanye really has proposed to the large-breasted reality star. The only problem? She doesn't take him seriously.

"Kim has tried to discourage it, but Kanye has said he wants to marry her for years now," a Kardashian source claims. "On more than one occasion he said, 'Kim, will you marry me?' He'd be dead serious if she'd say yes."

Heck, Kanye rapped about it on a recent track. It doesn't get more serious than that for the artist.

"I think he believes if he asks her 100 times, then eventually she'll say yes," the mole says, adding that West even got down on one knee during a Los Angeles visit this month.

Sound off, readers: Should Kim Kardashian and Kanye West get married?

Khloe, Kourtney and Kim Kardashian are once again advertising for their family's clothing collection, and they are once again doing so with very few layers of clothing actually on.

Oh, the irony.

A few months after the photoshopped sisters posed topless on behalf of the Kardashian Kollection, they're back in another supposedly sexy spread, this time donning nothing but lingerie. See for yourself:

Kim, the Hottest Woman on Earth according to her publicity team Zoo Magazine, is front, center and busty, while Kourtney's baby bump is nowhere to be seen and Khloe is quite covered up compared to her siblings.

This feels like a good time to post other photos of a bare-skinned Kim Kardashian, while asking readers: Which Kardashian would you rather?

Kim Kardashian was just named the Hottest Woman in the World by Zoo Magazine. No idea what the Zoo editorial board is smoking there, but hey, to each their own, and they did provide us with this hot new magazine cover, so good for them!

Here's Kim, doing what Kim does best (along with fornicating on tape):

Voted by readers, the curvy star is officially the Hot 101 winner.

Readers of Zoo, a fine UK publication, apparently have a type.

Posing in a skimpy black and red lingerie set, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star, 31, certainly does her best to live up to the coveted crown. Kanye West could not be reached for comment about the remarkable achievement by "his Beyonce."

What do you think: Is Kim K. the world's hottest woman?

Keeping Up With the Kardashians is back!

That's right, the most boring, scripted show on TV is SO back!

On the Season 7 premiere, Kim and her giant boobs gush about the importance of family, Kourtney reveals the gender of her second baby, Khloe and Kris clash over whether she should take a DNA test, and Bruce takes $h!t from everyone.

Basically all stuff we already knew or didn't care about. Anyway, here's our recap!

Kim Kardashian: "After going through a divorce this past year, it just taught me that family is the most important thing." Well, family and Kanye. Plus 10.

Khloe's in town, but no one bothers to tell Bruce dinner is ready, and he doesn't bother to come downstairs. Blame is shared equally there. Minus 15.

"What does a guy got to do to get a little respect around here?" he says. Not be surrounded by a bunch of money-grubbing reality stars? Minus 10.

OMG ... is Khloe a biological Kardashian? The DNA test drama resumes as  Kris Jenner is consumed with the paternity rumors re: Khloe Kardashian.

"This story is not going away," Kris laments. Yeah, because you have Google alerts set up and are filmed talking about it for your show. Minus 30.

HAHAHAHA. We're sorry, but one of our latest polls can now be closed. It's clear that Kim Kardashian is The Funniest Woman Alive.

During the taping of her interview on England's Alan Carr: Chatty Man (Kim is overseas to support fake boyfriend Kanye West on his tour), Kardashian was asked about her reputation for being famous just because... well, she's famous.

And we're still laughing over her response:

Alan Carr becomes the first white man to touch Kim Kardashian's rear end.

"It doesn't really bother me. I'm pretty realistic: I don't sing, I don't dance. I'm not that kind of celebrity. I don't think reality people get that much respect. I have to get people to like me for being me, not for a script that someone's written for me."

That joke doesn't even need a punchline. Instead, we'll just provide a link to the real reason Kim Kardashian is famous.

We told you Kanye West would appear on season seven of Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

And now you can see for yourself.

In a new E! promo for the season premiere, which airs on Sunday, we get a glimpse of Kanye and Kim at dinner, along with Khloe talking about the rapper and making it seem like this relationship is nothing but a publicity stunt. But that would be crazy, right?

Elsewhere: Kim wears wigs; Kourtney cries; Kris recalls a past love; Lamar Odom considers his NBA career; Scott Disick yells; and THG almost loses our dinner. Watch the totally unscripted madness now:

Keeping Up With the Kardashians Promo

According to the Federal Trade Commission, Kim Kardashian recently used her body to endorse a product that doesn't work as advertised.

Raise your hand if you're surprised.

The Skechers shoes Kim Kardashian tried to convince you to buy don't work, according to the federal government, which concluded that Skechers made unfounded claims about its Shape-Ups shoes, promoted by the shameless spokeswoman.

Kim Kardashian Super Bowl Commercial

According to the FTC, Skechers lied about clinical studies which they said proved the shoes help lose weight and strengthen muscles in the ass, legs and stomach.

Skechers has already agreed to pay $45 million in settlement costs, and anyone who bought the shoes will be eligible for a refund. Busted.

Skechers is reportedly disputing the FTC decision, and plans to conduct more research on the effects of the shoe ... good luck with that guys.

For her part, Kim she says Skechers worked for her - she was a devoted Shape-Ups user and felt they helped her tone the back of her legs and her giant ass(et) - and that's why she became the company's pitch person.

Kim says as soon as research showed the shoe didn't work, she stopped promoting it all together, even before the end of her one-year contract.

After getting paid for her Super Bowl commercial, of course.

Kim says she wouldn't endorse the shoe now, given the FTC's ruling, but she's not in the wrong and is not even throwing her Shape-Ups out.

She's nothing if not loyal, right Kris Humphries?

Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian appeared on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno last night.

In related news, the talent booker for The Tonight Show with Jay Leno should be fired.

The first two minutes of the interview were spent in captivating fashion, as Leno asked a pregnant Kourtney about cravings and this led to a discussion between the sister of In-N-Out Burger (cha-ching!).

From there, Leno quizzed Kim on Kanye West and the track "Theraflu," as she played dumb (okay, she might not have been playing) and responded "I don't know if he wrote it for me… I think my name's in it."

Look for Kanye to appear this summer on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, and watch the full interview with these morons below.
