Kris Humphries

KIM KARDASHIAN AND KRIS HUMPHRIES HAVE DOLLAR SIGNS IN THEIR EYES

Kim Kardashian’s fiancee Kris Humphries is described by his own publicist as an “NBA star and philanthropist.” Our gossip colleague CJ at the Star Tribune assumed that indicated that their wedding might become a fund-raising charity event. Since the nuptials will be paid for along with a handsome profit, one might have hoped the well-to-do bride and groom would invite guests to donate to a chosen charity instead of wasting money on gaudy wedding gifts they don’t need. But according to CJ, “The lovebirds have already shown us who they are by needing a 20.5 carat diamond ring to convey their love.” Hence, the registration at Geary’s in Beverly Hills for $172,000 worth of “newlywed necessities” like $6000 vases or a $375.00 candy jar. (Sounds like Kris Jenner’s work to us.) In summation, Kris and Kim COULD have shown themselves in a flattering light and helped tornado victims or whatever – but they chose to stock up on Lalique ashtrays instead.

DID KIM KARDASHIAN BUY HER OWN TWO MILLION DOLLAR ENGAGEMENT RING?

Kris Humphries has brought us back to the days when women like Elizabeth Taylor and Zsa Zsa Gabor judged their men by the size of the diamonds they received from them. Men liked the show off their wealth to impress acquisitive women who “sold out” to the highest bidder. Even Liz and Zsa Zsa would be shocked to learn that a woman who gained fame by selling her own x-rated sex video received an engagement ring worth two million dollars! (Of course we’re guessing it was BOUGHT for considerably less) But let’s analyze this. Two million is a year’s salary for Kris. Kim Kardashian earns twenty or thirty times as much as Kris. Hollywood insiders believe that Kim bought the ring HERSELF and arranged the proposal for maximum publicity (with a little help from her mom Kris Jenner.) She wants the world to know what she’s worth!

ARE KIM KARDASHIAN AND KRIS HUMPHRIES RING SHOPPING OR FOOLING AROUND?

According to our vigilant gossip comrade, CJ at the Star-Tribune, Kim Kardashian and her NBA boyfriend Kris Humphries were seen ring shopping at Tiffany & Co. in Minneapolis last weekend. Of course publicity savvy Kim thoroughly enjoys the idea of starting rumors so they might have done it for a lark. Or maybe not. Kim has made it clear she doesn’t like being single in her thirties so Kris will have to make some kind of move soon.

KIM KARDASHIAN’S NBA BOYFRIEND KRIS HUMPHRIES: ISN’T BEING A GREAT BALLPLAYER ENOUGH?

Kim Kardashian’s media-shy boyfriend Kris Humphries,26, used to run from the paparazzi (it took a long time to get a photo of the couple together) but now he’s hired his own publicist! We’re guessing Kris Jenner has schooled him in the art of cashing in. NBA star Kris has had the best year of his career and strangely, some credit this to his association with Kim “Midas” Kardashian. Kris’s new publicist is touting him as more than a great basketball player – he’s an “entrepreneur” and a “philanthropist.” Our esteemed colleague CJ at the Star Tribune in Minneapolis where Kris hails from, could barely contain her laughter – she pointed out that Kris is taking himself FAR too seriously if he considers himself in the league of philanthropists Bill Gates or Richard Branson.

KARDASHIAN MIDAS EFFECT RUBS OFF ON KRIS HUMPHRIES

Scott Disick is very aware that consorting with the Kardashians can be profitable, but we bet that Kris Humphries is surprised that HIS career is getting better also. Our fellow gossip, CJ at the Star Tribune, pointed out that statistics reveal that media-phobic Kris has been playing the best basketball of his life since he started dating Kim Kardashian. He’s averaging more points per game and he’s getting more time on the court. He’s become more valuable to the NJ Nets, so it might be a positive career move to keep kickin’ it with Kim.

IS KIM KARDASHIAN MOVING TOO FAST FOR KRIS HUMPHRIES?

It’s common knowledge that Kim Kardashian is moving to New York to be closer to her 6’9” east coast boyfriend, NJ Nets basketball player Kris Humphries. They’ve only been dating a matter of months, but Kim feel he’s “the one” and she loves that his name begins with a K. The problem remains that Kris is media-phobic – he hates photographers and reporters. Kim is depending on her mother Kris Jenner to convince him to tolerate the media that follows Kim everywhere. (They’d love to have him on a Kardashian show.) Last night she was courtside when the Nets lost to Dallas but Kim enjoyed meeting Snooki. Kim tweeted a baby photo of Humphries saying “This is what I want my son to look like!” Will Humphries take the hint or run for his life?

IMAGINE THAT. KIM KARDASHIAN’S BOYFRIEND KRIS HUMPHRIES HATES PUBLICITY!

Kim Kardashian’s romance with basketball star Kris Humphries is DOOMED because he is media-phobic—the exact opposite of the Kardashian family, who have the media to thank for their fortune. Photos of the couple are rare – any that exist feature Kris running away in a blur. He hates photos and he hates interviews. No kidding. According to CJ at the Star Tribune, Kim spent New Years Eve in Las Vegas and then flew to Minnesota to join Kris, who had a game on New Years day. Kim has been heard calling her 6’9” Taylor Lautner lookalike boyfriend by the nickname “Roman.” Kim’s only hope is that her publicity loving mom Kris Jenner can convert Kris Humphries to embrace the media. They’ll certainly want to feature him on their reality shows.
