One of my most shameful celebrity “crushes” is Diplo. Go ahead and yell at me, I deserve it. You can tell me anything about Diplo too, I know he’s a total douchebag. I can’t help it though – there’s something about his smug doucheface that I find appealing or hot or something. Sometimes we can’t always explain why we’re attracted to someone. But I would hit it and then I would never tell a soul about it, because banging Diplo is and always should be a shameful secret. Since he’s my shame-crush, I know that he likes women who are pretty young too, which is also gross. Apparently, he was possibly spending time with none other than Kendall Jenner at Coachella. Ugh.
Kendall Jenner is no stranger to getting up close and personal with music’s biggest names. The model has dated the likes of Harry Styles and A$AP Rocky — and now I hear she may have Diplo set in her sights. My spies caught Kendall looking extremely close with the US producer— who counts Katy Perry as an ex — at a Coachella bash on Friday.
They set tongues wagging after spending lots of time with each other at the party which was thrown to celebrate the launch of a cosmetics brand headed by Kendall’s sisters Kourtney Kardashian and Kylie Jenner.
My source at the Palm Springs bash told me: “Kendall and Diplo were super-flirty at the party. There was lots of touching and some extended hugging. They both appeared to be comfortable and familiar in each other’s company and hanging off everything the other person said. Diplo was stroking her arm. They were in great spirits. Kendall was toasting the launch of her show on Apple Music radio station Beats 1 while Diplo did a DJ set. It was the talk of the bash. Everyone wondered whether there could be something more going on between them.”
The pair’s flirting comes amid an ongoing saga in Kendall’s love life. Last weekend, it was reported she ignored rumoured love interest Blake Griffin when they both attended a different bash at the musical festival in California. At the party — thrown by Hollywood night spot Bootsy Bellows and McDonald’s — basketball star Blake walked straight past Kendall and the two did not speak the whole night. But, on Thursday, they both had dinner at Delilah restaurant in West Hollywood — although they made sure they were not snapped arriving together.
A source added: “Kendall has a lot of male interest and isn’t keen to be tied down in a serious relationship. Diplo is an extremely eligible catch and she seemed very flattered at the attention he was showing her.”
I also hear Kendall is being paid around £450,000 per episode to co-host her new monthly radio show Pizza Boys. Should Diplo decide to pop round for a takeaway, they can afford to splash out on a few side dishes.
I’m sure some of you will be like “Kendall wasn’t flirting with Diplo because she’s gay.” First of all, lesbians flirt with men all the time. Secondly, Kendall recently spoke about the lesbian rumors which have surrounded her for years, and I tend to believe her on this one thing: if she was gay or bisexual, she would just BE gay or bisexual. It’s not like her family is super-conservative or anti-LGBTQ. She would talk about it and date women openly and it would not be a big deal at all. I think it’s more than likely she’s a straight woman with a masculine energy. I also think it’s likely that she’s the most “quiet” about her love life among the sisters. So… basically, I sort of believe this. I think Diplo and Kendall Jenner hooked up at Coachella. I doubt it’s true love. And she’s probably ashamed of herself and she’ll never tell a soul about the hookup because, again, Diplo is gross (and so f–king hot).
Also: Emily Ratajkowski and Kendall look like twins to me.

I agree that Kendall would not be shy about telling people she was dating women and be open about her sexuality. But, she has PMK as her mother and there is no way she would allow it unless there was some way that it could somehow increase deposits into the “Bank of Kardashian/Jenner”. Kris has not figured out the best way to use it to her advantage and Kendall(if she is bi or gay) does not strike me as very rebellious
If Kendall was gay, bisexual, or pansexual, it’s unlikely that Kris Jenner would push her to keep quiet about it- that’s something that would make headlines. However, even if it were true, she’d still get accused of faking it for attention (especially male attention). Even famous young women who aren’t Kardashians or Jenners get accused of that. It happens every time. Hating women- especially those who are seen as seeking attention- while wanting to protect the LGBT community means there are some ‘progressives’ who refuse to accept the fact that a famous woman can both be gay/bi AND seek attention just like any straight celebrity. There are liberals who love us so much, they’d want to make sure ‘trash’ such as a Kardashian didn’t identify this way. Isn’t it sweet?
Kind of off-topic but we hardly ever talk about Kendall… is she still a working model? She never seems to walk runways or book campaigns anymore.
she was just on the covers of US/Japan Vogue.
her more high profile campaigns this spring/summer include: Tods, Missoni, Adidas, La Perla & Ochirly.
she slowing down due to anxiety and just wanting to be more low key.
I think she’s been pulling away due to anxiety and wanting to rest?
I thought the header photo was Daniel johns of silverchair. Way hotter back in the day (before the guy had a serious eating disorder).
Apart from that i’ve got nothing. No idea who he is.
Guess she sent her Swifty girl squad card back in the mail.
She only ever had a plus one invite. She was in London with cara and Karlie at the time of a 1989 concert so taylor invited her to be polite.
This was before the Kanye ‘famous’ thing.
Why do all the women in this family have such poor taste in men??? Yeesh.
Lol Kaiser!!! “Shame crush” I love it!
Sexy douchbag. Yeah I know.
Thought she was still dating the bball player.
I really can’t stand the nepotism in this industry .. don’t get me wrong she’s pretty but come to Australia there are plenty of girls walking down the streets of Melbourne that have more of an it factor than her…
And yuck – Diplo – he’s dipped himself into everyone. God he’s looking a bit rough lately isn’t he..
In other DJ news I’m still bummed about Tim Bergling (Avicii)’s death. Sad.
I’m going to assume her team wrote this to get people talking about her. It was the talk of the bash? Kendull and Diplomat… really? She has a lot of male attention? There is literally nothing that makes this girl interesting.
Oh FFS Diplo is my age *eyeroll*
That being said, he recently did a very nice tribute to Avicii.
I still can’t believe he’s gone 🙁
Ha he’s almost Leo’s age too! I guess these guys haven’t heard the half your age plus seven rule heh.
Ohhh and me too 🙁
Whilst I wasn’t the biggest fan of later years, some of my favourite memories are my early 20’s playing Seek Bromance .. Alcoholic …
He was a self-confessed introvert and from accounts a sweet dude who was very hard on himself and just wanted to please ..RIP
Same! Thought there’d be a post about him :/
I saw his documentary last week and it was so sad seeing him surrounded by a greedy manager and greedy “friends” while he was clearly suffering.
Have you heard Kendall talk? It’s literally all “I’m a cool girl, I only have male friends.” Which to me screams 100% straight but I’m not missing anything with her vapid flat self
I get the sexy of Diplo. I’d also hit it, and not tell a soul.
He’s my shameful celebrity crush too. I too would hit it…several times…and walk away in shame.
Is he gonna buy her an ass? Cause she for sure is the only one in that family without a huge one.
