Kris Humphries: Give Me a Raise, Or...
Kris Humphries is once again threatening Kim Kardashian with the "S" word. No, not sex tape. She'd be all about that.
Instead, Star Magazine claims the NBA free agent - who is still without a team - is demanding his episodic salary gets bumped from $28,500 per week to $50,000. Otherwise, he will file a lawsuit against E!.
"Kris is freaking out about his finances, even though the NBA lockout has ended," an insider says. "After all, it's his storyline that is making the show a success this season!"
Reportedly, Kardashian has control over Kourtney & Kim Take New York's content and has gone out of her way to portray herself as the victim in this divorce, something her ex-husband is far from pleased about, considering he thinks the entire marriage was a deception on Kim's part.
"He was nothing more than a disposable groom, used for ratings," the source adds. "He feels he deserves some type of compensation."
Kim, meanwhile, said last night that she isn't currently on the lookout for love. But you never know when a publicist will tell you it's time time to pretend again like you found it.

Kim Kardashian: Not Seeking New Fake Husband
Kim Kardashian is kooling it on the dating front for awhile.
At Thursday evening's opening of the Kardashian Khaos boutique at the Mirage Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, the star says she's remaining upbeat despite a rough 2011.
"I'm really thinking that 2011 was a lot of learning lessons," Kim says of the past 12 months, which saw her get engaged, married and split from Kris Humphries.
"In 2012, I'm just excited for the New Year and the new me.”
Will the new Kim be just as phony and dull as the old one? Stay tuned.
Despite the sad, fast end of her fake marriage to Humphries, the superstar insisted she hasn't ruled out getting married a third time (she was married to Damon Thomas for several years before the Kim Kardashian sex tape with Ray J made her famous).
"I believe in love ... always," the 31-year-old said. "I'm just not looking."
Fret not. Kris Jenner should hand-pick a new pro athlete before long.

Barbara Walters Grills Kim Kardashian on Sex Tape, Airs "Numerous Angles" of Video
Steve Jobs might have been the Most Fascinating Person of 2011, according to Barbara Walters on her ABC special last night, but the Kardashians were most definitely the subject of this journalist's most fascinating interview.
At one point, Walters aired a video that gave a bit of background on Kim and her family, focusing for awhile on the 2007 sex tape she starred in with Ray J. A long while. We counted. For some reason, the network aired 24 seconds worth of footage from this tape.
Forget illegal downloads, fellas. Just sit back and watch this ABC-sponsored content now:
Asked if she regretted the video, Kim gave her usual, cliched, mannequin-like answer about how she's made many "mistakes" in her life, only for Kris Jenner to of course jump in and say her daughter has learned from them.
It's true. She's learned how to market her breasts even more.

79.2%Father of Kris Humphries Threatens to Pen Kim Kardashian Tell-All
Might the manipulative, large-breasted roof soon get blown off DivorceGate?
In the latest issue of Life & Style, William Humphries - the father of Kris Humphries and the very brief father-in-law of Kim Kardashian - says he'd "love to write a book" about the ordeal Kim and her family put his son through.
"It's important to him that Kris' side of the story is out there," a friend tells the tabloid.
Humphries may not be entitled to any of Kim's assets, due to a prenup, but no non-disclosure agreement was ever signed. He and/or his dad are free to dish and dish and dish and "Kris has told his father everything," a source notes.
William "has many stories to tell," the magazine reports.
Kris, of course, says he just wants to move forward and find a new NBA team. But we have a feeling this story is far from over.
Kourtney & Kim Take New York Rekap: Kris Humphries Wants Kids! Like Right Away!
Sunday on Kourtney & Kim Take New York, newlyweds Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries continued to butt heads, while butt head Scott Disick's risque computer search history ruffled some feathers with baby mama Kourtney.
Scripted, contrived nonsense alert!
What did Kris say to Kim that really hit klose to home? Why did Kourt decide she needs to spice things up? THG breaks down Sunday evening's drama, +/- style:
Kim kicks off the third episode of the season pretending to contemplate family. "Maybe it's time to get off the pill and see what happens naturally," she says, seemingly without irony, seeing as there is nothing original about this girl. Minus 9.
Kourtney thinks it'd be Mason to have a playmate. Of course, she knows Kim will never really oblige so she went and got pregnant again herself. Proactive. Plus 17.
Kris: "We can have our own cuter version of Mason." Unlikely. He's a doll! Plus 6.
Momager Kris Jenner of all people makes the valid point that they shouldn't even think about this because don't even know where they're going to live. Plus 8.
Speaking of which: Kris really wants to settle in Minnesota, to which Kim replies, "How am I going to have my career and live in Minnesota?" Minus 25 for Kim being so shallow ... and Kris actually thinking this might happen in his lifetime.
Humphries' rationale on that front: "By the time you have kids and they're in school, no one will probably care about you, let's be honest." LOLOLOL. Plus 270.
Kris Humphries Fan Throws Flour in the Face of Jonathan Cheban
A fan of Kris Humphries approached Jonathan Cheban on the street in New York City yesterday and tossed flour in his face, and we know what you're thinking:
Kris Humphries has fans?!?
TMZ has a photo of the incident, as well as a quote from someone on the scene, who overheard the flour-thrower yell: "This is for Kris Humphries!"
Humphries and Cheban - Kim Kardashian's BFF and the star of Spin Crowd - have never gotten along well. The latter has accused the former of referring to him as "gay," a charge Kris denies and one he has reportedly considered legal action over.
A rep for the NBA free agent says his client "would never condone hateful and unacceptable behavior like that to anyone, in any situation."

Kim Kardashian: Helping in Haiti
Might Kim Kardashian actually be using her fame for the benefit of someone else for a change? Or is her PR team simply orchestrating opportunities to improve her floundering image?
The answer is most likely a combination of each, but the facts are these: Kim is currently in Haiti - along with Kris Jenner, designer Donna Karen and actresses Patricia Arquette and Maria Bello - as part of We Advance, an organization that aims to "advance the health, safety and well being of women throughout Haiti," according to its website.
"She's been there for two days," an insider tells Us Weekly. "She says it's amazing!"
Kardashian also served the homeless for Thanksgiving last month and while it's impossible not to doubt the motives of this reality star's every move, at least these causes are being helped in some way through her actions. No matter how self-serving they may be at their core.
Kim Kardashian and Reggie Bush: Klamoring for Rekonciliation?
We called it back when Reggie Bush was traded to the Miami Dolphins, and now the possibility appears to be a reality. If you believe this supermarket tabloid, that is.
The latest issue of Life & Style claims that Kim Kardashian and her serious ex have been talking a lot recently and are considering a reconciliation.
"Reggie reached out to Kim via text shortly after she announced she was filing for divorce to make sure she was okay," a friend says. "They've stayed in touch ever since, texting and talking. Kim was Reggie's first love. He knows she's hurting right now, but when the time is right, he'll swoop in and take care of her."
Previous reports alleged that Bush was desperately trying to stop Kim's wedding to Kris Humphries back in August. He didn't succeed, but, hey, now she's $15 million richer and single once again. Might this reunion have been the plan all along?
Do you wanna see Kim back together with Reggie?

Kim Kardashian Kover Klaim: No Fraud Here!
Kim Kardashian is reportedly sad over Kris Humphries' recent annulment filing, which is based on the claim that he was deceived into a marriage based solely on publicity and profits.
After all, a friend tells OK! Weekly, the allegation simply isn't true.
“She did not commit fraud,” an insider tells the tabloid. “She truly was in love with him and wanted to live happily ever after. Her heartbreak is genuine.”
It also didn't come out of nowhere, according to this anonymous, totally real source.
"Things between her and Kris were horrible from the moment they walked down the aisle," reports the pal, something all Kourtney & Kim Take New York viewers would support, based on that show's season two episodes.
Meanwhile, a relative of the family's are fearful about how far Kris will take his beef and what the public spat will do to Kim's psyche.
“Kim isn’t superhuman," the source said in the most obvious statement of all-time. "People seem to have this idea that because she’s on TV, she’s some sort of robot. She’s just been through this awful breakup and she’s hurting. Now what Kris is doing is making it hurt that much more. The truth is that she’s extremely emotional and very sensitive and she is having a very hard time dealing with all this.”
Note to random mole: It's not Kim's television presence that makes us believe she's a robot. It's her lack of any kind of personality. Also, her fake body parts.
