As we discussed yesterday, Kim Kardashian?s iOS game is a HUGE hit. Like, it?s one of the biggest hits of the year and it?s already raking in hundreds of millions of dollars. The gaming company, Glu Mobile, has seen a steady increase in its stock price. People are addicted to the game like crack. So, how much of the profits will Kim see? A LOT. She?ll see more from this game than all of her other projects combined.
Kim Kardashian stands to make around $85 MILLION from the new video game iPhone app that boasts her namesake … more than she made last year in all of her other ventures combined … TMZ has learned.
Sources familiar with the deal tell TMZ … Kim’s cut is 45% of net profits. The game — “Kim Kardashian: Hollywood” — is set to gross a reported $200 million this year alone.
We’re told the actual expenses associated with the business are relatively low. A straight 45% cut of $200 million totals a whopping $90 million. Industry sources tell TMZ … expenses would not exceed $10 million.
So … we’re no mathematicians, but 45% of $190 million is $85.5 MILLION FREAKING DOLLARS. To put this in context … according to Forbes, Kim made $28 million last year.
As you know … the game is all about becoming a virtual celebrity, but it costs real money to buy your way to the top. Now the bad news for Kim. We’re told she has to pay her agent, Uncle Sam and, of course, Kris.

This just goes to show you that A) everything?s coming up Kardashian and B) you can mint money with these apps and games. Everybody always talks about the new tech bubble and how it will burst in the next year or two years, but I don?t know? I?m not sure if this shiz really is a ?bubble?. I think it?s the new normal. As for Kim?s profits ? a 45% cut is pretty good. $85 million in one year (before taxes) is amazing. I wonder what Lucifer?s Homegirl?s cut will be? 10%?

Though she?s widely regarded as one of the world?s loveliest ladies, Kim Kardashian seems discontent with her body ever since giving birth to North West.
In a new Instagram post, the ?Disaster Movie? actress shared a picture of herself from 2010 in which she?s wearing a tight white dress.
Kim captioned the shot, ?Throwback to a few years ago #SkinnyDays. #OnTheTreadmillRightNOW,? noting that she?s not quite done losing her pregnancy weight.
During her term, Kardashian received tons of criticism for her weight gain, leading her to later tell press she thinks preggers women might benefit from staying out of the limelight. "I recommend hiding for a good year and having no pregnancy style. That's what I recommend. If you can do it, hide. Never leave the house."

By now you?ve probably heard about Kim Kardashian?s new iOS game Kim Kardashian: Hollywood. It was launched a few weeks ago and it?s already a HUGE hit. The game, from what I understand, is free to download but you can ?buy? money within the game to enjoy the experience more. Like, $99.99 in real life buys you 175,000 virtual dollars, and you can use that money to go shopping or go on adventures in virtual Hollywood. People are buying money in the game, so much so that Bloomberg News projects that the game will be one of the biggest hits of the year, and it?s on track to make $200 million. Think about that. For the love of God!!
Kim Kardashian’s new video game is set to rake in a ton of cash! The 33-year-old Keeping Up With the Kardashians star recently launched her very first iOS game called Kim Kardashian: Hollywood and Bloomberg News is already predicting that the game will earn a whopping $200 million! So what does Kim have to say about the video game’s success?
“This project has been an amazing experience,” Kim tells E! News exclusively. “I’m so excited that people are enjoying the game! I partnered last year with a fantastic company called Glu Mobile to create what is now the No. 3 Free and No. 5 Grossing game on the Apple App Store. We collaborated on every aspect of the game’s design details and continue to do so with the updates we are bringing out.”
“I love that fans are constantly telling me on social media their favorite parts of the game and even offering suggestions,” Kanye West’s other half added. “We’re working really hard to integrate fan feedback and we’ve already added one of my favorite vacation spots to the game! There’s so much more to come, including plenty of cute new looks and exotic locations.”
While the game is free to download, users can pay while playing to become more famous. Since launching on Jun. 25, shares of the game’s creator Glu Mobile Inc. have gone up 42 percent.
[From E! News]
This is for all of the people who think that Kim will just disappear if some of us ignore her. That?s quaint. While it?s doubtful that everybody playing this game are Kardashian super-fans, I think it?s proof that Kim and the Kardashian Klan definitely find a way to stay relevant and profitable in an ever-changing celebrity/media landscape. Put another way? pimpin? ain?t easy. But it?s profitable.

Here are some more photos of Kim Kardashian at the Vogue Foundation Gala two nights ago in Paris. This is her worst look in months, I think. But they all blur together. For the life of me, I will never understand why she does slicked-down center parts. That hair style is so unflattering on her. Anyway, Kim and her sisters have a joint interview in Lucky Magazine this month ? you can read the full piece here. They?re promoting their clothing line, I guess with an emphasis on the new kids? clothing line. Here are some assorted highlights:
Kim?s new style obsession: ?You know what I’m obsessed with? This family came to North’s birthday party and they were all wearing white. There were three kids, a mom and a dad, and they were all wearing different white separates?harem pants, flowy blouses, very boho. If I have more kids, we’re all going to go out in the same color. All nude, all black?it’s going to be our thing.?
Kim wants to be a MILF: ?Well, I am definitely way sexier ever since having my daughter! The struggle to get back into shape after giving birth is such a real one. It’s so difficult to do, and afterwards, all you want to do is show off your body and feel sexy. I mean, my style’s definitely more simple?[she?s told she?s amped up the sexiness]? I know! I just want to be a MILF!?
Kim?s style preferences for North: ?Ever since having my daughter?I mean, I’ve always liked simple style, and I’ve found that that’s so hard to find in the kids’ department. Everything’s Pink and patterned, and that’s just not what I want to dress my daughter in. So our first collection had this cream color palette and was very sweet and soft and feminine, and then we added in some faux leather pieces and moto jackets this time around that are really edgy and cool.
North already has style preferences: ?She doesn’t like Pink or purple?she likes greys, creams, oatmeal colors and black. Every once in awhile she’ll add in some color, like with her little red Air Yeezys, but other than that she likes to keep it pretty simple.?
Who would Kim like to take a selfie with? ?Jesus!?
[From Lucky]
Kim as a MILF? Ugh. I mean, I?m glad she feels sexy or whatever and I know she worked hard to get back into shape, but I really hate when women refer to themselves as MILFs. Is that just a pet peeve for me? I wonder about the North stuff though ? North is only one year old ? is she really THAT choosy about her clothes? I can see it happening with a 3-year-old and up, but does a one-year-old really look at her clothes and only pick out the grey stuff?

As much as I like to make fun of Kim Kardashian, I’ve got to admit that the world’s most famous porn star does at least have one major talent. Actually, make that two. And here she is showing them off during Paris Fashion Week. I still can’t really stand Kim’s overhyped fat ass, but hey, […]

Kim Kardashian basically flew into Paris for a day to attend the Valentino show and a party for Vogue. One day, and she had like five costume changes. Seriously. I already covered the Valentino photos ? go here to see. Those pics look especially good compared to Kim?s utter mess at the Vogue party. I think it?s Balmain. I?m including those photos in this post. A leopard-print skirt with a mis-matched belt, half sheer top and black lipstick? HONEY NO.
Anyway, Radar has this amusing take on just how sad Kim and Kanye?s marriage is already. I totally believe this:
Is Kanye West the next Kris Humphries? Just 46 days after the rapper and Kim Kardashian said ?I Do,? reports claim that the couple have spent less than two weeks in the same bed. And now, RadarOnline.com has learned, sources close to the couple say that when they actually are together, they?re ?miserable!?
As Radar reported, the tension began on the honeymoon from hell in Ireland where Kardashian was bored when her new husband attempted to expose her to museums and artwork.
?Kim complained and sulked the entire time they were in Ireland on their honeymoon,? an insider revealed. ?She didn?t like the cooler damp climate, and the lack of high-end designer stores. Kanye tried to arrange tours of local museums, but she wanted nothing to do with it. Only Kim would go to Ireland and be bored, and go to two separate movies in the same day in a foreign country!?
The couple recently attempted a honeymoon re-do when Kardashian demanded that they take a second honeymoon at pal Joe Francis? luxurious estate in Puta Mita, Mexico, but there, the couple?s differences were on display yet again.
?Kanye was miserable and brooding,? the insider claimed. ?He isn?t really the ?lounge by the pool kind of guy.? Kanye now recognizes that Kim?s main interest are shopping and lounging around a pool,? the insider said. ?It?s really concerning to Kanye that Kim doesn?t even want to try to experience new things.?
And increasingly, they?re living separate lives. According to reports over the weekend, the couple spent just 9 nights together in their first 43 days of marriage ? a number that has ticked up at least one since Kardashian flew to Paris to meet up with her man on Wednesday. In addition, the couple recently put their multi-million-dollar Bel Air dream home on the market, leaving Kardashian living with her mom Kris Jenner while West tours the world.
[From Radar]
While I think Kim and Kanye will probably make it through (at least for a year or so), wouldn?t it be hilarious if they filed for divorce this year? It would be epic. Kanye would rant about it for YEARS. But seriously, did Kanye NOT understand that Kim is a vapid famewhore who prefers shopping and sunbathing to experiencing new cultures and going on adventures?

Sisters that play together stay together, or so Kim Kardashian and Kendall Jenner were out to prove earlier this morning (July 10) in Paris.
The "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" stars rocked casual looks, complete with shades, as they headed out into the lovely town from their ritzy duds.
Earlier in the evening, Kim and Kendall attended a lavish party thrown by the Vogue Foundation Gala. Before heading inside the star-studded event, the 18-year-old shared a hilarious picture with Kimmy and wrote, "She looks up to ME #BalmainArmy."
Kim also shared a snap from famed photographer Mario Testino's Instagram page, which read, "The unmistakable @KimKardashian at the #VogueParisFoundation #CoutureByTestino @VogueParis"

I saw some photos of Kim Kardashian out and about in Paris yesterday but I just ignored them because A) the pics were boring and B) Kim?s outfit wasn?t notable. I didn?t put it together that Kim had flown to Paris (where?s Nori?) to attend some Paris Fashion Week events. Lesson learned. Kim is a fashionista now. She is accepted by many in the fashion establishment. That?s what marrying Kanye gave her ? front row seats at the Valentino Haute Couture Fall/Winter show, seated next to Mr. Valentino Garavani himself.
First a word about Valentino ? I know that?s his ?signature look? and everything, but his orangeness would make even John Boehner weep. His orangeness startles even Pippa Middleton. Anyway, Valentino is now merely a civilian to fashion house he created ? he is no longer a part of Valentino Inc, but he still goes to all the shows. Still, it?s quite a fashion coup that Kim got to sit with him. If you remember correctly, Valentino also opened his Paris home to Kim and Kanye and the Kardashian family ahead of the wedding.
As for Kim?s ensemble? maybe I?m numb from all of Kim?s horrible, unflattering styles, but I actually think she looks good here? I mean, she?s dead-eyed and bored-looking, her boobs look fake as hell and she?s wearing a mountain of makeup. But overall, she looks really good. That dress is super-flattering and it?s a beautiful color on her. Minor complaint: there are some droplets on that dress and I can?t figure out if it was raining or Kim drooled.
I?m also including photos of Emma Watson, Olivia Palermo, and Olivia?s new husband Johannes Huebl from the same Valentino show. Olivia looks cute. Why does Emma look so grumpy though? She?s giving me Posh Beckham vibes with her humorless expression. Maybe she didn?t like her outfit?

Call me crazy, but the Kardashian sisters were actually wearing some flattering clothes in NYC yesterday. I think this silhouette suits Kim especially ? she looks 15 pounds lighter in this dress. And Khloe?s ass of lies doesn?t look so cartoonish in these photos too. Much better, Kardashians. Now let?s work on your crazy Botox-faces which are tweaked into oblivion. I?m including some Instagram photos of Khloe and Kim too ? Khloe?s face in particular is looking crazy. She needs to stop with the lip injections.
The Kardashians have been camped out in Manhattan and the Hamptons for weeks now. I guess they?re filming KUWTK while Kanye is touring. Yesterday, Kim, Khloe and Kourtney made an appearance on CNBC?s Closing Bell (FOR REAL) to discuss their business skillz. Kim said, in part:
“My mom kind of taught us girls we could have it all. You know, she works hard. She taught us that if you work hard, it’s just all about prioritizing?It could get tough after you have a baby. There [have been] so many times when I just didn’t wanted to get up and work on something,” she confessed. “I just wanted to be home with my baby, but for me, I think I can speak for my sisters, it makes us feel good when we are out working?You know, now that I’m married, I would so much rather spend time with my husband, my family, and my baby, than run around the world working for other people.”
[From Us Weekly]
If you go to that Us Weekly link, you can read more of the transcript. Kim talks a lot about their evolving business strategy and how they stopped putting their name on everything last year (probably when the Kardashian Kredit Kard failed). They talked about branding, reality shows and how they view themselves as ?businesswomen and entrepreneurs.” Eh. Of all the complaints to have against the Kardashians, this one is pretty far down the list. They do care about money and business and branding and why not?

Kim Kardashian posted this ^^ photo on her Instagram. It reminded me a lot of the kind of photos Beyonce posts on her Tumblr of Blue Ivy ? Beyonce rarely show Blue Ivy?s face on her Tumblr. I?m sure this will inspire another round of ?is Kim copying Beyonce, always? speculation. As it should, because this photo looks like it?s straight off Bey?s Tumblr.
Kim has actually been camped out in the Hamptons this week with her sisters Khloe and Kourtney. I guess they?re filming Keeping Up With the Kardashians while Kanye is MIA, on tour. Page Six says the paps are going crazy.
The paparazzi have taken to the water in a flotilla to follow reality sibs Khlo and Kourtney Kardashian, who were recently joined by big sister Kim Kardashian West and momager Kris Jenner at their Hamptons summer rental on Noyac Road.
The $14 million, 9,000-square-foot home on North Sea Harbor, which they rented for $300,000 for the summer, has a heated pool facing the water, an outdoor fireplace and a dock.
?I passed the Kardashians? house last weekend by boat, and I almost felt bad for them because they had, like, three or four boats outside with megalenses,? says a witness. ?One appeared to be a fishing boat, one was a small power boat. They were a mix of shapes and sizes off the shore.?
The boater lamented, ?It will be very sad if this becomes a tourist spot.?
The fishing crafts full of fotogs appeared to have struck it lucky. The Kardashian ladies, in various camera-friendly, tight and revealing outfits totally unsuited to boating, were photographed setting sail over the weekend. A rep for the sisters had no comment.
[From Page Six]
Real question: why bother, paparazzi? I mean, I can see why the paps would wait for them on land, but why all the drama about renting boats and using telephoto lens just to get some photos of the Kardashians? Especially when Kim and her sisters already A) post tons of free photos on their social media sites and B) organize special pap sessions with their favorite photographers anyway?
Speaking of, here are some ?gym outfit? photos of Kim and Khloe from earlier this week. The Asses of Lies in yoga pants.
