Kim Kardashian and fellow media magnet beau Kanye West left the Hurricane Club in New York rockin' major style.

We're loving Kim K's short dress, strappy black heels and Wonder Woman-inspired silver cuffs. Kanye opted for jeans and a purplish jacket. Perhaps he should have borrowed Kim's cuff!

Sexy duo, indeed!

 

Khloe Confirms She And Lamar Will "Take A Break" From Reality Show

Posted on Tue May 1st, 2012 7:55am PDT       By X17 Staff

KKardashian111911_01_X17quit230.jpgIt's official ... no more reality show for Khloe Kardashian and hubby Lamar Odom!

E!'s Khloe & Lamar will end after this season. Kim's younger sis tells Entertainment Tonight:

    "Our show is not cancelled. Lamar and I have chosen to take a break this summer. We've been on a whirlwind doing back-to-back shows, and we just want to take a little time off for Lamar to be with family time, kids, basketball, Olympics -- you never know. So, we have a lot on our plate right now."


As for whether Lamar's dismissal from the Dallas Mavericks had anything to do with the reality show ending, Khloe adds:

    "The issue at hand is we just want to be happy. We'll take our time and we'll get back to it when it's time."


The two tied the knot back in 2009. We have a feeling Khloe & Lamar be back on the air sooner rather than later!

This could be the start of a beautiful friendship!

Looking totally fierce in a pink and black dress with a to-die-for rhinestone snake necklace wrapped around her pretty neck, Jennifer Lopez and Enrique Iglesias announced plans for a 20-city MEGA concert tour this summer, which will also feature musicians Llandel Veguilla and Malave Salazar of Wisin and Yandel.

The concert series will begin July 14 in Montreal, and La Lopez exclaimed at the conference:

    “We are going to give you everything we got. I think it’s going to be one of the most historic tours ever. Because I don’t know that there has ever been something ... where these Latinos have come together like this as family.”


Iglesias also added, “I have a bunch of songs with Wisin Y Yandel and obviously with Jennifer.” Lopez also revealed that her 4-year-old twins, Max and Emme, will join them on the tour bus!

Of course J. Lo had to sneak new beau Casper Smart into the conference for moral support -- these two are attached at the hip and still going strong!

While Gwen Stefani has been slaving away in the recording studio with her band No Doubt, it seems there is suddenly a new career opportunity in her horizon: a resident judge spot on X Factor!

The stylish Mrs. Rossdale has recently been contacted by Simon Cowell to replace Steve Jones as a host on this year’s show, according to the New York Post, and apparently “Stefani is interested.”

Sources estimate her price tag is “between $5 million and $7 million,” which is definitely a better bargain than Britney Spears, who was reportedly asking for a $15 million paycheck to appear as a judge on the show.

While she's made multiple appearance on American Idol, should Gwen consider trading up to become a full-time judge on X Factor?
