14 DAY TRIAL // Last week, reality star Kim Kardashian, now pregnant with her second child by rapper husband Kanye West, stopped by The Ellen DeGeneres Show to promote the new season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
This also involved discussing baby names, Kanye’s dreams of running for President in 2020, and Caitlyn Jenner’s transition from male to female, which E! documented on the docuseries I Am Cait, which is rumored to be in the works for a second season.
Kim Kardashian is apparently a huge diva
In other words, Kim was just being Kim, shilling every detail of her personal life to boost interest into it even more - after all, it is her bread and butter!
There were few surprises in this regard (except perhaps the fact that she likes the name Easton for her son, who is due in December), but that doesn’t mean that there were no surprises at all, Radar Online reports. We just didn’t see them on camera.
Insiders reveal that Kim was in full diva mode for the day of the taping, starting with the fact that she showed up late to how she demanded that every little thing be altered to suit her needs.
This also included the fact that she arrived with a 20-something team, all of whom had to be accommodated in rooms close to her, which, in turn, had to be “stocked up with refreshments.”
“Even Ellen herself was surprised, and she is used to diva demands!” the insider claims. “Kim had three outfit changes before she got the right one. She refused to let the Ellen staff touch her hair, or her makeup either.”
Ellen made the most of Kim’s visit
However, what the viewers at home saw on the small screen was the mild-mannered and soft-spoken Kim they know (and adore) from her reality show, having a very friendly chat with Ellen.
After the show, Kim posted the Instagram photo available below to her feud, showing the fans how much fun her daughter North had with Ellen as she was getting ready to go on the air.
The same Radar report says that the photo op was actually planned by Ellen, to show that she doesn’t “hate kids” like the media says she does. That is to say, she saw an opportunity and she took it, but she really didn’t play with North like she wants the world to believe she did.
