The Kardashians

Kendall Jenner is partnering up with Proactiv to fight acne everywhere ... and the timing of the announcement is nothing short of ironic.

The supermodel shared the news Sunday alongside her new employer after teasing a clip Saturday in which she said she'd be helping a lot of people with her announcement. Proactiv tweeted ... "Welcome to the family, dahling! @KendallJenner is the new face of Proactiv."

The company also released Kendall's testimonial to plug their skin-care brand, and she recounted her Golden Globes appearance in 2018 ... when tons of people skewered her for not being able to cover up her acne. Kendall says Proactiv cleared her up for good.

Of course, Sunday marks the one year anniversary of that red carpet display ... so it's fitting that Kendall and Proactiv put out the news just in time for the award show.

She joins a long list of Proactiv celebrity endorsements, including those offered by Jessica Simpson, Katy Perry, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Kaley Cuoco, and many more.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are getting in touch with God ... by having a choir sing some of Kanye's songs and calling it a "Sunday Service."

KKW has been posting a ton of videos on her Instagram story throughout Sunday morning which shows Kanye leading a full choir in what appears to be a private studio, as they sing old and new tunes of his, like "Heard 'Em Say," "Father Stretch My Hands," "Lift Yourself," "Reborn" and others.

Interestingly enough ... we didn't hear "Jesus Walks" in any of her posts.

Kim tweeted about the gathering, saying, "Our new Sunday Service is starting. Check out the rehearsals on my Instagram stories." She didn't add much context to what the "Sunday Service" entails or when exactly it's starting ... but it seems they're ramping up for a church venture of some sort.

BTW ... Kid Cudi's in the studio too, as is baby Chicago -- who's big enough now to get her groove on.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have gone with a different surrogate to deliver their new baby -- but it ain't because they didn't like the last one ... she was simply unavailable.

Sources close to the couple tell TMZ ... Kim and Kanye hired a new woman to carry their fourth child, a boy ... not the 20-something-year-old they used last year for baby Chicago. The reason is simple ... that lady was already pregnant with a kid of her own.

We're told KK and KW's previous surrogate -- a young, healthy, fit woman in her 20s -- just gave birth to a daughter on Christmas Eve. Considering she'd just popped Chicago out less than 12 months prior, it's clear she and her husband of 5 years got busy quick.

BTW ... Kim and Kanye's first surrogate already has two boys of her own, so this is her third child.

No word on the profile of the Kardashian-Wests' new surrogate just yet, but ya gotta think she'll be comparable to the last one ... and Kim and Kanye will likely be just as involved during the pregnancy.

As we reported ... Kim and Kanye's new baby boy is due in early May. He'll be their fourth child in addition to North, Saint and Chi.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West have another bun in the oven via surrogate, and for their fourth time around ... they'll be welcoming another baby boy to the family ... TMZ has confirmed.

Sources tell us Kim and Ye are indeed expecting a fourth child from a leftover embryo they created, which is male. We're told the baby is due in early May.

We broke the story ... Kim and Kanye hired a surrogate in 2017 to carry baby Chicago to term. She was born last January. Remember, Kim has a condition called placenta accreta, which makes another pregnancy for herself life-threatening.

Unclear if KK and KW hired the same surrogate from last time for baby no. 4, but we do know they were close with their previous surrogate and kept tabs on her throughout the pregnancy.

The new baby boy -- first reported by Us Weekly -- will join North, Saint and, of course, Chi ... upgrading their family of 5 to a whopping 6.

Congrats!!!

Drake's keeping his friends close and his frenemy's family even closer ... based on who showed up to his New Year's Eve bash.

As you know ... Kanye West went on the attack last weekend and issued a very public rebuke of Drake on NYE for following his wife on Instagram, but that didn't stop Kim's sisters from having a good time at Drizzy's champagne party.

Kendall Jenner, Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott all attended The Mod Selection New Year's Party Monday night at Delilah in L.A. -- hosted by Drake -- despite the bad blood currently between him and Ye.

It's possible the rappers' relationship's on the mend ... Drake unfollowed Kim on IG just hours before midnight on NYE, so perhaps that was enough to smooth things over and allow Kanye's kin to hang out with Drake without backlash.

Kanye even tweeted on New Year's Day "I love Drake 2019 we will all heal."

However, he also used the first day of 2019 to go on a Twitter rant about Trump.

One step forward, two steps back.

There's nothing true about the life these Kardashian wannabes are living with fake butts and lip injections ... but that's exactly what MTV's tackling when it reboots "True Life."

The new franchise -- dubbed "True Life/Now" -- will tackle obsessions in several directions ... starting with "Obsessed with Being a Kardashian." TMZ's obtained a preview of the first episode ... which follows 3 subjects on their quest to look like a famous K.

Check out the clip ... there's truly no such thing as pushing the limit. Future episodes will tackle obsessions with the perfect booty, looking like a Snapchat filter and avenging revenge porn. Wild stuff.

"True Life" was a huge hit for MTV after it premiered in March 1998 ... winning an Emmy in 2009. Though it was never officially canceled, no new episodes have aired since June 2017.

"True Life/Now" premieres Wednesday at 10 PM on MTV.

Kanye West just launched another attack on Drake ... this time railing on him for following Kim Kardashian on Instagram.

Kanye just posted, then deleted, this ... "I  never knew till this morning that Drake followed my wife on Instagram back in September." But, that wasn't it ... he went on, "I had to bring this up because it's the most f-ked up thing of all and I just saw it this morning."

Kanye and Drake have been at war recently. As you know, Kanye and Kim accused Drake of making physical threats to their family.

As for why Kanye's so pissed off today ... you'll recall, a lot of people thought Drake was insinuating he had slept with Kim after she was with Kanye. The song that triggered all of this ... "In My Feelings," where Drake talks about Kiki -- that's Kim's nickname.

Drake didn't ramp things down with "SICKO MODE," where he took shots at Kanye.

In Saturday's posts, Kanye added, "Imagine having a problem with somebody and they follow your wife on Instagram. We truly wish this man the best and pray that he will find the same happiness that we have.  Love everyone."

Kanye West gave Kim Kardashian a $14 MILLION Xmas present.

Kanye made a deal to buy a mega-unit in a super, super exclusive Miami Beach condo building, dubbed "Billionaire Beach Bunker" ... TMZ has confirmed.

The 18-story building is occupied by hedge fund gazillionaires and ridiculously rich land developers.

We're told Kanye scoped the place out on his own while in town for Art Basel, and Kim had never even seen it. Kanye has fairly deep ties to the city. He's a regular at the Basel. Kim also did a show there ... "Kourtney & Kim Take Miami."

Our sources say Kanye secretly made the offer this month and surprised Kim on Xmas day.

The unit sounds awesome. It's 4,700 square feet with 4 bedrooms, 5 1/2 baths and an insanely large terrace. The building is tricked out with a gym, pool and spa.

Obviously, it's right on the beach.

They actually got a deal ... sort of. It was originally listed at $15.5 million.

Page Six first confirmed the story. The deal is set to close next month.

Jack, Janet and Chrissy got nothin' on this trio -- Scott Disick, Kourtney Kardashian and Sofia Richie looked tight as can be in Mexico for the holidays.

The threesome are down in Cabo San Lucas right now enjoying themselves a beach day with Scott and Kourtney's kids, and Sofia tagging along ... which she's done from time to time.

It's a pretty incredible scene -- Kourt and Sofia are seen lying up on the some chairs, side-by-side ... and they even go on a stroll with Scott at one point on the sand. No signs of tension, hostility ... nothin'. Just your run-of-the-mill modern day co-parenting at its finest.

We've even obtained video of them out to dinner together later the same day at place called Edith's. Again, not a hint of animosity between the current/former couple.

Scott and Sofia are obviously still going strong and, from the looks of it, Kourtney's been dipping her foot back into the dating scene as well, with another youngin'.

Van Jones has a message for all the haters who blasted Kim Kardashian West for meeting with President Trump about criminal justice reform -- take a look at the scoreboard.

The CNN star was on cloud nine in D.C. Wednesday morning after the Senate passed the First Step Act by a lopsided vote of 87-12, and he lauded Kim for it ... saying it wouldn't have been possible without her meeting Trump face-to-face in the Oval.

Van says thanks to Kim -- there will be 50,000 fewer people in prison soon, and inhumane treatment of women prisoners will subside.

Jones says he knows it wasn't easy for Kim to put her celeb status on the line to help people she doesn't even know, and she deserves all the respect in the world for it.

As we reported ... Kim K's passion for prison reform started with her quest to free Alice Marie Johnson, which led to her first meeting with Trump in May. She went back to D.C. in September -- along with Jones -- to work on the crafting of the First Step Act.

Just months later the bill passed in the Senate in a landslide ... and is a step away from becoming law.

As Van says ... how do you like Kim now?

Kendall Jenner had a frog in her throat hands during a photo shoot that, unfortunately, didn't have the same magical effect the Brothers Grimm dreamt up once upon a time.

The supermodel -- who's been featured in some of the most high-end fashion campaigns this year -- sunk a little lower to swamp level this weekend during a shoot in Malibu, where she came face-to-face with Prince Charming himself ... the bullfrog version.

Don't worry -- she didn't plant one on the handsome amphibian (that'd be gross AF) ... but Kendall did seem pretty dang giddy to be holding the specimen.

Kim Kardashian West took her kids to the furthest place from Twitter on the Earth -- less than 24 hours after Kanye unleashed on Drake -- Disneyland!!!

Kim was spotted with North and Saint Friday at the Mouse House. Kardashian was joined by Kris and Kourtney ... who were there to celebrate Reign and Mason Disick's birthdays.

The crowds, rides and characters were likely a nice break from the drama that unraveled on Twitter between Kanye and Drake.

As we reported -- Kanye claimed Drake threatened him and his fam with physical violence, and hours later Kim doubled down and warned Drizzy not to come near, saying, "Drake Never threaten my husband or our family. He paved the way for there to be a Drake."

8:05 AM PT -- We just got Kanye out in NYC, and he's a LOT less chatty than he was Thursday night on Twitter. We asked him about the threats Drake made and he flashed us a big smile before sprinting to his car.

Kanye West and Kim Kardashian claim Drake has threatened to hurt their family -- and they're warning the rapper that if anything happens ... there will be hell to pay.

Long story short ... Kanye claims Drake called him on the phone Thursday and threatened physical harm.

"You threatened the safety of me and my family," Kanye posted on Twitter ... adding, "Never threaten north saint and Chicago’s dad bro."

Kim Kardashian entered the fray at 2:30 AM on Friday morning -- saying, "Drake Never threaten my husband or our family. He paved the way for there to be a Drake."

She added, "My husband is the most brilliant person, the most genius person that I know. He has broken so many boundaries, everything from music, stage design, fashion and culture and will continue to change the world."

So, how did this whole thing start?

Kanye posted a screenshot of his phone on Thursday that allegedly showed that someone from Drakes's team had reached out to clear one of Ye's songs for a project.

Kanye was upset because Drake has taken shots at him in various tracks recently -- yet still reached out to use his music -- and Kanye felt Drake was being a fraud.

Then, the Twitter storm began ... with Kanye going off on his issues with Drake.

"Been trying to meet with you for 6 months bro," Kanye said ... " You sneak dissing on [Travis Scott] records and texting [Kris Jenner] talking bout how’s the family."

Kanye says Drake eventually called him to talk Thursday night -- but it didn't go well.

"Drake called trying to threatened me."

Kanye then issued this warning -- "So drake if anything happens to me or anyone from my family you are the first suspect. So cut the tough talk."

Kanye said Drake is running around like he's 2Pac with no regard for human life or Kanye's family and acting like he's a hardcore gangster.

"You trying to be a bully. I never been bullied in my life and I never will be. That’s why I made it this far in a pink polo."

Despite the anger, Kanye tried to issue an olive branch at one point -- "I’m Ye bro Remember that I love you I would never intentionally hurt you That’s what I’ve been saying to you."

"You would be so sad if anything ever happened to me."

"I’m up for talking. We need to show all of these fans that black men can@talk without someone ending up dead or in jail."

"You are disrespectful to all people with mental health conditions so this is an opportunity for growth."

Drake hasn't said much publicly -- only posting some emojis on Instagram showing some crying/laughing faces.

Kanye has seemingly calmed down and is now at a meeting at J.P. Morgan Chase and Co.

Guessing this situation ain't going away any time soon.

Stay tuned ...

10:15 AM PT -- We're told the clip of Kim claiming Kanye didn't say slavery was a choice ... will NOT appear in the upcoming 'KUWTK' episode. It was never approved for the episode, because when Kim watched it back, she realized it was inaccurate and not reflective of what happened at TMZ that day.

The preview clip has been pulled by E!.

Kim Kardashian is trying like hell to justify Kanye West's slavery comment -- the problem is she's fully misquoting her husband, and clearly does NOT remember what he actually said.

On the next episode of 'KUWTK,' she has a convo with Jonathan Cheban and Simon Huck about Kanye's May 1 appearance on "TMZ Live" ... and the convo is rife with falsehoods. First, Huck says "the way they edited that clip." It was not edited.

Then there's Kim saying this, "If you listen to what he said, he said, 'Slavery was 400 years? If it's gonna be another 400 years, that sounds like a choice to me.' He didn't say, 'Slavery is a choice.'"

Here's the clip, so you can listen to what Kanye actually said. There is clearly NO reference to a future 400 years. The actual quote -- "When you hear about slavery for 400 years, for 400 years??? That sounds like a choice. Like, you was there for 400 years and it's all of y'all?"

Kim can have whatever interpretation she wants of Kanye's words. We get that. But, to say we edited him or misquoted him ... is a lie.

On the 'KUWTK' episode she adds, "Kanye's slavery comment ... he never said that. That was just the headline."

Okay.

The house that posed as Kris Jenner's home in "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" finally has a new real-life owner.

The 7,843 sq. foot Studio City mansion recently sold for $5.25 million after being on and off the market for the past 11 years. Our real estate sources tell us it was originally put up for sale back in 2007. It passed through the hands of 19 agents and 9 brokerages before finally selling.

Matt Altman, Josh Altman and Jacob Greene of The Altman Brothers Team and Brandon Assanti of Rodeo Realty most recently had the listing, and got the job done.

If the pad looks familiar, it's probably because you've seen it on E!'s hit show a ton over the years ... which was always presented as the "Jenner House." As we've told you before, they just used it for exterior shots -- they don't use Kris' real home for security reasons.

Either way, it's a good thing it finally sold, even at a $2 million loss. It was put back on the market last year for $7.895 million and has been featured on ton of shows like "Chelsea Lately," "True Blood," "American Horror Story" and in Victoria's Secret ads.

It was total fandemonium as Kim Kardashian showed up for the grand opening of her newest pop-up shop ... and you gotta see just how wild this crowd went when Kim waltzed in.

Thousands of screaming fans showed up Tuesday at South Coast Plaza in Costa Mesa, CA, where Kim was on hand to open the doors to her KKW Beauty pop-up shop as only she could.

Check out the clip ... the mall is PACKED, with lines stretching in every direction and spilling onto the second floor. It's quite the scene, complete with screams and tons of people clamoring for autographs and selfies as Kim blessed a lucky few with a pic and signature.
