Kanye Encourages Kim to Lose Weight
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Dating, Clothing, Style, Rumors,
Kanye West wants his girlfriend Kim Kardashian to lose weight.
The "Mercy" rapper is said to have urged the reality TV star - who is famous for her curvy figure - to slim down and shed up to 20 pounds. Kanye thinks his good friend Beyonce - who gave birth to her first child Blue Ivy last January - has a better body than his girlfriend of six months and is encouraging her to follow the singer's grueling Dreamgirls diet, according to OK!.
"He even suggested Kim drop 20 pounds, arguing that Beyonce has a similar shape and she proved you can get that supermodel body using her lemon juice, cayenne pepper and maple syrup diet. He says he wants her to be the face of his clothing line... but to do that she has to fit into the clothes. It's really uncomfortable - her shape is what made her name. He has a long-term fantasy of turning them into the new Beyonce and Jay-Z power couple, but getting Kim to starve isn't the way to do it," a source close to the couple said.

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Sex Tapes,
Kanye West was "practically in tears" when he learned a sex tape featuring him was being shopped for sale. The 35-year-old singer is seen in a video with a look-a-like of his current girlfriend Kim Kardashian in various compromising positions, and he is said to be very upset that it may be viewed by the general public.
"The sex tape is being shopped right now and there is a lot of interest, but Kanye is freaking out. He doesn't want this tape out and will do anything to make sure it stays private. If this were to hit the market it would be worth a fortune... there would definitely be a lot of people waiting to see this. Kanye was practically in tears when he heard the tape was being shopped," a source said.
Kanye is seen turning the camera on at the beginning of the film and turns it off at the end. It is believed the video was shot before Kanye was with Kim - who herself became famous after her notorious sex tape Ray J.

Kanye West has urged Kim Kardashian to take style tips from Duchess Catherine.
The rapper believes his girlfriend of six months - who shot to fame after making a sex tape with her then boyfriend Ray J - could learn a lot from the British royal's "poise and sophistication" along with her conservative style.
Speaking about the duchess - who was previously known as Kate Middleton - a source told the Daily Star newspaper, "Kanye has been urging Kim to tone down her make-up and style her hair in a more conservative style, like Kate. And it's not just Kate's regal look that Kanye wants Kim to mimic. He's also told her that she could learn a thing or two about poise and sophistication from Kate."
Kim recently revealed Kanye has managed to convince her to live her life at a slower pace and focus less on her work and more on her personal life.

Kanye West has taught Kim Kardashian to slow down. The reality TV star has been dating the rapper for around six months and Kim admits before she started her relationship with him she was living life too fast so didn't have time to appreciate things.
"I've slowed down a little bit and for the better. It was a good lesson learned. I now make it a priority to take time out for myself and have private vacations," she said.
Kim also said she's learned from her mistakes in the past but has never been put off finding love: "To be in a happy, healthy relationship means everything. It's everything when you want to share your life with someone. We all make mistakes. Life is about learning as you go and not making the same mistakes again. Nobody is perfect. I don't ever try to be. I try to be responsible and honest and open. You have to trust your gut. Happiness is everything, life is short, and you should never not be happy. Relationships go through different things, and that's completely normal. But you know when you're happy."

Kris Jenner is ‘Furious’ with Kanye West Over Sex Tape Boast
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Music, Television, Dating, Rumors,
Kris Jenner has warned Kanye West to stop talking about Kim Kardashian's sex tape.
The musician recently rapped about the intimate video his girlfriend made with her ex Ray J in 2003 but after TMZ claimed he used to watch it to get himself in the mood while having sex with his previous lovers, her mother Kris told him off.
"Kris had stern words with Kanye when she saw that he said he would put Kim's sex tape on while romping with other women. She thinks it's a disrespectful claim and told Kanye to stop talking about it at every given opportunity. As far as Kris is concerned, the video with Ray J is history and since then Kim has become a reality TV star, a fashion designer, even a philanthropist - so she's moved on. By bringing up the past, Kanye is making it worse for Kim, but he doesn't see it as that much of a big deal," a source said.

Dr. Dre Named Hip-Hop’s Highest Earner
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Gossip, Industry News, Hip-Hop & Rap,
Dr. Dre has been named hip hop's highest earner.
The rap mogul may still not have released his long-awaited Detox, album but he made an estimated $110 million last year, largely thanks to his Beats by Dr. Dre headphone collection, which saw him earn $100 million when HTC bought a 51 per cent stake in the company for $300 million.
P. Diddy was ranked second on the list with $45 million, with a huge percentage of his income coming from his share of profits for Diageo's Ciroc vodka, while third-placed Jay-Z brought in more than half of his $38 million through business deals including ownership stakes in cosmetics company Carol's Daughter, the Brooklyn Nets and a joint venture with Duracell.
Former Def Jam President Kevin Liles - who now manages a number of hip-hop artists - says it is typical for his acts to make a lot of their money from endorsements:
