Kardashians Told To Take Down "Paid Endorsements" By Consumer Watchdog

Posted on Tue Aug 23rd, 2016 10:51am PDT       By X17 Staff


Everyone knows that the Kardashians use their Instagrams for their own personal endorsement deals -- but not everyone is so happy about this.

The consumer pressure group Truth In Advertising is threatening the Kardashians with action unless they remove supposedly paid-for endorsements from their Instagrams. Kimbo and Kylie are not going to like that very much!

The group claims to have found more than 100 postings on their pages that appear to be advertising but are not marked as such, The group says its written a letter warning the clan to remove the paid-for advertising or they will report their finding to the Federal Communications Commission.

The watchdog's executive director Bonnie Patten said: "When it comes to sponsored social media posts, the law is clear … Unless it’s self-evident that an Instagram post is an advertisement, a clear and prominent disclosure is required so that consumers understand that what they are viewing is an ad."

Patten went on, "The Kardashian/Jenner family and the companies that have a commercial relationship with them have ignored this law for far too long, and it’s time that they were held accountable."

The five sisters have amassed more than 316 million Instagram followers combined. Kylie has been accused of the paid-for endorsements the most due to her Puma posts. Kim has come in second.

When you're Kim and Kanye's daughter, everything is over the top... even bath time!

Kim Kardashian shared this adorable photo of Nori playing with glowsticks in the bath on Instagram yesterday, and we couldn't help but start envisioning the millions of other ways the toddler's charmed life is better than your average 3-year-old.

Not only does she turn up in the bathtub, but she also has a closet full of designer clothes, vacations in exotic locales, and can't be bothered to fly commercial. It's unlikely she will even have something as normal as school supplies when she starts kindergarten. Yeezy will probably send her with an Alexander Wang backpack and a stone tablet to etch her homework into.

We'd like to read a "What I Eat In A Day" from her, too! We bet it's like, macaroni and cheese flown in from Italy and vegetables grown by Tibetan monks. We doubt she's ever had a PB&J in her life!

Serious diva alert!

Posted on Tue Aug 23rd, 2016 8:10am PDT       By X17 Staff


Could you imagine Britney wearing it?!

Kendall Jenner grabbed lunch at Fred Segal yesterday afternoon, and the model wore an odd ensemble of cuffed jeans, white booties, and a white t-shirt with the words "Los Angeles, F**ked Up Friend" on the pocket.

The cat walker and A$AP Rocky's romance is going full speed ahead, so the rapper must have put in the work to make it happen. After all, Kenny recently admitted she likes the thrill of the chase.

"It's not that I'm scared of asking a guy out or showing him that I like him, it's just that I'd much rather be pursued. I definitely like the chase and the feeling of being wanted. The way I see it, if a guy isn't going to put in the effort and ask me out, then the relationship probably won't work. It would be a waste of time for me. Call me a little old-fashioned, but it's just what I like!" she confessed on her website.

We thought she loved the ladies before all this started unfolding!

The Biebs tossed her right into that cold water! Ouch!

Sofia Richie looked pretty downcast at the Adele concert over the weekend, and it's probably because Justin Bieber is running around London having a fling with model Bronte Blampied. Where does he even meet these chicks?! Its gotta sting, considering poor Sofia was just with him in Japan earlier this month and totally acting like his new girlfriend.

JB loves 'em and leaves 'em quicker than anyone in Hollywood! The "Sorry" crooner was spotted with his new British beauty at Tape nightclub on Sunday, just two days after they made their first appearance together at the same venue.

Perhaps Lionel Richie's daughter could call Selena Gomez or Hailey Baldwin and get some tips about coping with this heartache?

 

Khloe Kardashian Says She Fears Lamar Odom Will Die

Posted on Mon Aug 22nd, 2016 11:35am PDT       By X17 Staff


On last night's episode of Keeping Up WIth The Kardashians, Khloe admitted she's worried that her ex Lamar Odom will die. That's not a surprise since the fallen basketball star almost died from an overdose in October and has been spotted drinking several times in recent months.

During the episode, the 32-year-old told older sisters Kim and Kourtney: "There is only one outcome" for her estranged husband.

The reality star also said that he he took "five steps backwards" in his recovery.

Khloe said she's tried to get Lamar back on the road to recovery, but he's told her he's been having "really bad cravings." She was also worried that he wasn't going to therapy and was hanging out with a "bad crowd" again.

The episode started off with Khloé talking about what was going on with Lamar with her best friend Malika Haqq.

"Ever since coming back from Cuba, I've been so worried about Lamar," Khloé said. "I just want to keep him around positive people."

Khloe also revealed that Lamar said he want to go to a basketball training facility in Santa Barbara, but that he hasn't worked out or trained at all so she doesn't believe him.

"I am so conflicted," she told the camera. "I want the best for Lamar, but with everything going on lately there's not a lot of trust there."

Unfortunately soon after her discussion with her friends, another pal alerted Khloe to the fact that she was hanging out with unsavory characters.

After finding out that he was likely up to old habits, Khloe said to the camera, "Nothing is going to wake him up, that's just the way it is. This is Lamar."

Khloe also lamented, "Everyone wants to see Lamar do well and succeed at life. Everyone was rooting for Lamar, except him."

Both Kim and Kourtney have said that they know Khloe has worked tirelessly to help her ex but there's only so much that can be done for someone who is unwilling …

Kourtney said in her own interview, "When it comes to Lamar, Khloé has given everything and tried everything. There's only so much that she can do."

It appears as though Lamar needs something far greater than himself, or the Kardashians to stop what he's doing. We're still rootin' (and prayin') for ya, big guy ...

Keeping Up with the Kardashians airs Sundays at 9 p.m. on E!

 

Mislabeled Pills In Prince's Home Contained Dangerous Drug Fentanyl

Posted on Mon Aug 22nd, 2016 10:10am PDT       By X17 Staff


The world is still reeling from the death of the Purple One … and it appears as if more has been revealed about the singer's untimely demise.

The Associated Press is reporting that the nearly two dozen prescription pills that were hidden in an Aleve bottle at the singer's Paisley Park compound may have actually been counterfeit drugs that contained the narcotic fentanyl, which is reportedly 50 times stronger than heroin and up to 100 times more potent than morphine. Wow!

The AP is reporting that at least one of the pills, which were labeled "Watson 385" – indicated that they contained lower dosage of a mix of acetaminophen and hydrocodone – actually tested positive for fentanyl.

A source told the Minneapolis Star Tribune, that it's very possible that the "Purple Rain" singer may have taken the counterfeit pills not knowing that he was taking the more powerful drug and accidentally overdosed as a result.

The 57-year-old was found unresponsive in an elevator on April 21. It was revealed later that the singer died of a fentanyl overdose.
