After famously snubbing Kim Kardashian from the annual Met Ball, rumor has it that Anna Wintour is now giving the reality star the OK to grace the highly-anticipated event with her gossip magazine-worthy ways.

Whether size matters in the bedroom is still under debate, but the size of a party in a nightclub? Oh, the bigger, the better. And one party in particular is as big as it gets: Magnum Mondays. You know, like the large-sized condom company. Tonight, the party - which first began at STK Vegas by The ONE Group - is launching at its resident NY spot: STK Downtown, a restaurant in Meatpacking known for its ribeye dipped in truffle butter and creamed spinach.

SURPRISE! Kanye West has run his mouth off. Again.

The blessed news is out, my friends: Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are expecting a baby girl.

Kanye West has never shied away from Jesus iconography before. But now he's looping girlfriend — excuse me, his pregnant in heels girlfriend — Kim Kardashian into it.

When the news broke that Kim Kardashian is expecting Kanye West’s baby, I’m sure I’m not the only one who assumed that a birthing special would find its way on E! at some point. That is where we are as a society: it makes perfect sense that we’d have the opportunity to watch a human come out of Kim Kardashian. (Hell, a lot of us have seen a human go into Kim Kardashian.) But, thankfully, the mom-to-be has announced that the birth will be private, and she’s looking forward to not working for a while. Think about that as you click through the internet, desperate to leave your office and not work for a few hours before returning tomorrow morning! [Jezebel]

Good morning. It's New Year's Eve. Isn't it understood that nothing of great importance should happen today, such as mass murders or political coups or celebrity deaths? Then why, oh why, would today be the day that we learn of that Kanye West and Kim Kardashian are expecting a child?

Yes, that's Kanye under there. He performed last night at Revel's Ovation Hall in Atlantic City in a series of frightfully bizarre masks it would make Lady Gaga envious.

In case you missed it, Kanye West wore a Givenchy skirt during his performance at last night's 12-12-12 Sandy Relief concert at Madison Square Garden. Just like when he wore a Celine women's blouse at Coachella last year, his gender-bending moment has taken the blogosphere by storm, proving that there's more to him than just designing lackluster clothing and dating Kim Kardashian. Taking a note from @AngiesRightLeg (which hasn't been Tweeting much, sadly), someone has decided that West's choice of garb is worthy of personifying. Thus, @KanyesSkirt was born. 

Kim Kardashian's prop kitten Mercy, which she carried around in public on New York City streets, has suddenly died. It's an ignomious end to the feline whose only reason for being was to detract attention away from Karl Lagerfeld's kitten, Choupette.
