Here are some photos of Kim Kardashian out and about in LA yesterday. Her bump has really “popped,” hasn’t it? Kim is still insisting that she’s not due until December, so we still have many more months to enjoy Kim’s second pregnancy, which she totally hates. I sort of unapologetically love that about her – in a world where celebrity women are always gushing about how amazing they feel while pregnant and being pregnant is the dream, it is everything, it is the best, there’s Kim who is so obviously miserable.
The bumpspiracies continue with Kim and I’m at a loss to explain how that’s possible. Kim is so obviously, genuinely pregnant. But I do love the speculation, because it gives us ridiculous gems like “Beyonce advises Kim on how best to hide her bump.” Via Hollywood Life’s source:
“Kim reached out to Beyonce and had a good laugh about it. The Internet went wild with speculation that Beyonce faked her pregnancy too, so she knows all about it. And like Kim, Beyonce liked keeping the media guessing. She told Kim to hide her bump using purses, bags, flowing dresses and coats to mess with the media.”
First of all, that conversation never happened. Second of all, even if Kim was faking her pregnancy, the last person who should give advice is Beyonce. Beyonce’s pillowy pregnancy was such a disaster!
Oh, and Rolling Stone finally released their full cover story “Kim Kardashian: American Woman” online – go here to read. I glanced through the first few pages and it seemed like a decent enough profile (but we’ve already covered the highlights several times over).
Oh, and to add to the bumpspiracy, a lot of people think Kim Photoshopped this Instagram:

Kim doesn’t do pregnancy well. So this will be interesting. Maybe if she wore clothing that is comfortable and not restricting her comfort level will rise.
Also get rid of the high heels and slow down the amount she travels and rest one in a while.
I’m convinced she’s pregnant simply by how miserable she looks. Usually when she’s out wandering around in her ridiculous clothing she looks more or less like she wants to be there, but in all the recent pics she looks downright wretched. If she was faking this she’d be a lot more “I’m glowing!” showing off and less “I want sweatpants”.
She’s an idiot. She dresses in skin tight clothes so then she feels compelled to wear a coat in July so that we don’t see her real/fake bump or her bulges.
Obviously if she didn’t WEAR the skin tight clothes she wouldn’t have to wear the coat, and she would be more comfortable.
shoes don’t matter in pillow pregnancy
Beyonce’s response to controversies is always very messy because she is neurotic about her public image, but I am sure she was pregnant. If you look at her pictures from late pregnancy and just after birth, her face and body look very full and wide. I don’t think she would take predinosone or gain weight just to fake a pregnancy. She was pregnant and Kim was too.
I watched her documentary (which she was in totally control over so I guess i should take it with a grain of salt) and she did have footage of her seeming to be actually preggo.
however, the bounceback and that infamous footage of her sitting down and her belly just folding like a pillow will always stick in my mind…

I think she baited the attention a little bit after the initial controversy, which is a weird choice, but again, she doesn’t react well to negative attention. That’s always looked like too much fabric around the torso which is folding to me.
The folding bump and that fleeting look of “oh sh*t!” on her face will always make me lean towards pillow conspiracies. I read somewhere that she gained weight on purpose and even took certain meds to give her that pregnant lady look. Not sure if that’s true, but it was an interesting thought, and someone like Beyonce would go to those lengths to create the image she wants to sell.
I think it was a pillow, ever since I saw that video.
Most pregnant women sort of lower themselves onto a chair, they don’t bend over like that because it’s harder. At least I did.
And even more than that was the UH OH look on her face, so unguarded, so unusual for Beyoncé, who always looks in control.
I think she was actually pregnant but padded to make herself look more bumpy for the paparazzi. She’s a fit woman who has been a dancer since she was a child, she was never going to have a photogenic cute little bump in the early stages of a first pregnancy. Curse those abs! So she improvised. Clumsily.
@Beverly You would be surprised at what some people would do. Look at Rachel Dolezal as example.
She could Possibly Never LOL: here is what i AM fully prepare to believe
Kim may have tried the number she Supposedly had for Beysus and It was a Disconnected Number, or Cousin ANgies… who also didnt pick up FYI
Ha! Too true!
Best case scenario she left Beysus 12 rambling voice mails about ‘OMG, me too! Let’s hang out!’ That will be intently listened to at length by the intern working for Beyonce’s PA.
The “Goodnight baby” Instagram picture was definitely photoshopped and is very obvious.
One give away is the bright lighting that only on Kim’s Chest and stomach that’s no place on Kim and in the room. Another is Kim hand that’s holding the phone you can see the cut out around her fingers and that her finger is not touching the button.
Haha just noticed the finger ! This girl is ridiculous. That is way too obvious and probably done on purpose just to get some press this week. She can’t let Khloe have the attention.
But as usual, Kim is looking at herself in the camera rather than down at the place where the baby actually is. She does this with Nori, also, it’s so unnatural. When I see pics of other people with their kids, they are most often looking at the kids and the kids are looking at them. Nori typically is looking somewhere off camera while Kim is looking at the camera or (if she’s pretending to bond) kind of sideways at the camera. She does this with other people also even when it would be most natural to be looking at the other person. Good luck to the future rug rat.
I think she cropped herself out of another picture and placed herself in a completely other room. It looks like a cardboard-Kim being photographed.
–I’m not native, sorry for mistakes —
I agree with you. 🙂
If she did reach out to Beyoncé, it was probably via fan mail because I don’t think Beyoncé wants anything to do with Kim, and I love that!
Serious, honest question: I know Kim has said that there’s such a thing as Spanx for pregnant women, but how on Earth is suffocating your unborn baby healthy and safe? No, seriously. I know how I feel in Spanx when I’m just bloated, so I can’t understand how this would be safe for a developing fetus.
If any of you cares to enlighten me, I will be forever in your debt.
And yes, Kim hates being pregnant SO much it’s hilarious. As if anyone’s forcing her to dress this way and be out in the press every. single. freaking. day of the week!
I’m positive that her Spanx are not so tight that it is limiting the child’s oxygen supply. The baby will be fine and Kim will remain uncomfortable and humid until the end of the year.
Maybe pregnancy Spanx just provides support for the belly and the back, like other kinds of aids that are more belt-like. I do think they exist, but haven’t bothered googling to get the details. Who knows how Kim is using them, though.
I actually had a pair of maternity spanx and they were so stinking comfy! I was due last August, so wearing spanx prevented thigh chaffing in the July heat. I was so swollen the last few months maxi skirts were the best choice. And it’s hard to explain, but the portion over the belly is just like nylons: very thin and snagged easily. In my opinion, the maternity spanx have nothing to do with compression, its more “I’m so ungodly uncomfortable, and these sort of help”. Or it was a placebo. Whatever. I was glad I had them 🙂
If she is pregnant, the baby is safe. Babies receive their oxygen via the umbilical cord, so even if the Spanx were quite tight, the only thing it would be doing would be to limit the ability of the baby to move around.
But Rae mentioned that the tummy part isn’t tight, so hopefully she’s not compressing anything.
I won’t believe that she’s pregnant unless her ankles swell like they did before.
Meh, IDK. My best friend is almost 6 months pregnant with her first child and her belly suddenly popped and looks like a proper pregnant stomach.
The layers of spanx Kim wears is frightening.
I can’t believe people still believe Beyonce faked her pregnancy but I guess I shouldn’t be.There are people who believe she isn’t 33 despite the fact there is video evidence of her age.If Beyonce is lying about her age then all the original members of D.C. are lying about their ages , Solange is lying about her age,etc.
Agree with you totally !
Did you see the folding belly video upthread? I didn’t believe she was faking it either until I saw that a few years ago, and that changed my mind.
I believe Beyoncé would do anything to keep her body.
I have no idea why ‘it’s obvious’ she’s really pregnant. Her boobs keep changing sizes (not just bigger). She’s had photos of her cleavage where it’s obviously a LOT of underpadding beneath the boob to make them look bigger. The bump has changed sizes as well – not just getting bigger but bigger and smaller. What exactly screams obvious pregnancy then?
@juniper exactly. Other than looking like she ate a few extra meals I don’t see a pregnant women – sans fake looking bump. This whole
pregnancy has been weird and I think she’s up to something.
Agreed!
I cant hate on Kim for this, she is exactly what i think I will be when pregnant. I’m short and curvy and will not be “cute pregnant” as the young folk say (i.e. supermodels with their long torsos looking just glowing/beautiful the whole time). I gain 10 pounds and people think I’ve gained 20. That being said, beyonce and kim are not friends…they would not be chit chatting about babies and such. I dont even feel like Jay and Kanye are as close as they used to be anymore over the Kardashian Khaos bringing down the brand
It all depends on how well or unwell you feel during your pregnancy.
I am curvy and a good few kilos overweight and when I got pregnant I thought I would look huge but because my baby boy is very naughty and I have been feeling quite unwell, I actually lost weight and even my hubby says I look thinner on my face.
But I presume if your pregnancy is going well and you don’t suffer from any nausea and can eat different types of food and don’t necessarily need to follow any strict’ish diets, you will most definitely put on weight and will look bigger than normally.
I think Kim is pregnant, however because she does everything for the public eye, she tries to look more pregnant so that we can talk about her. She should really just let things run their own course. Not wear spanx as no one expects her to look thin while pregnant. Even if she still wants to wear heels – fair enough but let those heels be comfortable and not make her feet suffer from great pains.
Her face, though in these pics…..filled to the brim. Such a shame.
Lol. Kim wishes people thought she wasn’t really pregnant. I do feel a bit sorry for her tho. She does look miserable pregnant.
I’ve never been pregnant- but that belly looks HUGE for supposedly 4 months? If she claims she’s not due until December? She looks bigger now than the Wife of Cumberbatch did when she was supposedly weeks from giving birth. I know, all pregnancies are different, blah blah.
Having said that, I think KK is too much in the public eye (because if she wasn’t she’d die from non-exposure) to fake it. Other supposed fakers could hide away, fudge the baby pics and birthdate where as she lives her entire life on TV, magazines and Instagram. Not to mention the incredibly tight clothes. I think we have a genuine South West coming our way.
I am pregnant and due January 1st so I’m kind of confused as to how she’s already 5 months pregnant when she is due a month before me. I’m 3.5 months pregnant, she should be maybe coming up on 5 months but not there yet. Also I am on my third pregnancy and still haven’t quite popped, I look like maybe too many carbs or drinks but nowhere near the full belly she has.
Congratulations on baby #3! 😀
My daughter is on her third pregnancy too, she is due December 31st. She did just pop this week. She was showing and all but I mean this week a big round belly just popped out there. And I mean POP! I made her lift her shirt because I thought she was having me on. I really couldn’t believe she had grown so much since I had seen her two days before. She saw her doc today and he said the bump can change sizes (within reason) almost daily due to your last meal, the status of your bowels (ick!), the way the baby is laying, fluid retention and a host of other reasons I can’t remember. Even your daily clothing choices can change how the bump looks. Not so much in Kim’s case since hers are always second skin type.
That said, maybe we ought to give her a break on the microscopic bump watch. Poor thing does look miserable. My daughter is past the queasy stage and has moved into the part where you feel fabulous because of all the lovely growth hormone flooding your system. Makes you feel like you have superpowers! Apparently Kim does not have that experience.
Yeah like Beyonce would ever take Kim’s call lol. Secondly, I think both Beyonce and Kim are/were actually pregnant. Lastly, that pic of Kim in the white dress, why does her bump look so much bigger there? I think she enhanced that photo just so we’d talk about it.
Here is the real question: would Beyoncé pick up the phone??
Kim is my reluctant spirit animal in terms of pregnancy. I hate hate hated being pregnant. I’m 5’1″ and I gained 70lbs. Yeah. Fun. Last night at the grocery store I nearly fell off my own feet standing still because my balance is still so jacked up from being so heavy for so long. My brain still thinks I’m 180lbs.
Kim is such a liar liar pants on fire that I can understand the doubts, although she looks pregnant to me. Don’t really care, somebody is pregnant if a baby is born in December. If it’s not Kim but she wants to do some elaborate fakery, let her. She has nothing else to do…. But I do think she’s incubating the kiddo herself. Hope Kanye doesn’t lose interest in Nori once he has a son. I keep hoping he will rescue Nori from the Kardashian Koven and raise her in Paris, sending her to French schools for a real education. Otherwise Kylie is giving us a glimpse into her sad future.
Kim , since you like to pose nude half the time lets see you take a selfie with your pregnant belly! You don’t like to cover up so why now are you wearing these ridiculous coats in mid summer?? You dont see weight gain in your face and legs nor have swollen feet. Its obvious YOU are hiding something.
stretch marks?
As tight as she wears those dresses, shouldn’t you be able to see the outline of her belly button? If that is a pillow, she’s wearing the coat to hide the obvious on the sides of her skin tight clothes. Really, I think she’s wearing the coats to add mystery so the tabloids will keep her in the headlines with is she or isn’t she? Her a** was huge before so not like she would be hiding that!
She looks freshly worked on.
Odd question I hope someone can answer. When Kim flies is it commercial or a private plane? If she was flying commercial and having to go through security checkpoints wouldn’t her faking a pregnancy come out by now? Whether through a pat down or security check? As it stands now you almost have to remove all your clothing to go through security. I would think any metal buckles, etc holding a fake pregnancy belly in place would set off the scanners.
Buckles now a days are plastic – even in car seats. So I don’t think that would be a problem. Also, not everyone gets pat downs and I think celebs are less likely to get patted down than regular people. Sometimes she flies private and sometimes she flies commercial. So don’t know. The only clothing, other than shoes, that she would possibly have to take off is the coat. I also wonder (and I don’t know) if celebs (any of them), don’t go through the regular line that other passengers go through.
I too thought she was faking it at first but now I think she’s just playing around with her due date. On July 17 she tweeted she was 20 weeks pregnant and had gained 20 pounds. Then two days later she says the doctor corrected her and that she was one or two weeks off when she said she was 20 weeks. So let’s guess she was only 18 weeks on July 19. Her bump isn’t unusual sized for 18 weeks. And that makes her baby due around December 17. When she was saying she was 5 months pregnant people assumed that meant the baby was due in early November, for which she seemed small. But being due in late December she has a LONGGGGG way to go!
I have a theory for her being incorrect about how far along she is. Last time she got blasted when North arrived 4-5 weeks early as everyone was saying she had the doc induce her (and I do not believe she had pre-eclampsia because if it was bad enough to do an early induction she would have been on bed rest and not running around). So this way if she is a little early then she can say she was off on how far along she was. Just a theory. And just because she had North early doesn’t mean she will have this baby early. My first was 16 days early, my second 1 day late and the third 4 days early!
^ This
I don’t believe North was premature like they claimed she was. Nothing in Norths newborn pictures shows that she was and North being 5 pounds doesn’t prove she was premature. I weighed around 5 pounds when I was born I wasn’t premature just small and still am I’m 4″11 and weigh 96 pounds.
I think Kim fudge her due date so she and have work done on the down low.
The due date is sending up red flags for me. When Kim first said she was 20 weeks, I was 21 weeks. I have a due date of late November, which would make her due date around early/beginning of December. Now she says her doctor was off on her due date by a week or two. Okay, HOW was her doctor off by that much? Calculating due dates is not that hard, and if you’re not one for mathematics there are several due date calculators online that you can use. Even my mathematically challenged self figured out my due date, and then checked online with several calculators before my first appointment. The doctor and nurses both came to the same due date conclusion that I did.
How was her doctor off by up to two full weeks? Sure, one can argue irregular periods but Kim allegedly had IVF and her first pregnancy was awful so surely her doctor would monitor her closely with ultrasounds that would measure the fetus and give her a more accurate due date?
I don’t think she mentioned if the doctor estimated her due date too early or too late.
Something is rotten in the state of Denmark and that’s why I’m willing to believe the surrogate theory.
So true she can’t keep her lies straight so she/they are hiding something.
I’m wondering if the IVF rumor was incorrect because if she had had IVF they’d know her date of conception with 100% certainty. Yes, there would still would be a normal plus or minus 2 week window of possibility of the baby coming early/late but the IVF due date would be fairly close.
How long does a fertilized egg spend in the test tube before it can be determined to be a male or female since Kimye wanted a boy? Would that make a difference on the due date once the egg is implanted? In a regular pregnancy, I thought all embryos were female until nearly a month or so into the pregnancy when the embryo’s own hormones kick in during development. As far as Kim wearing all those long coats, remember how she seemed to carry North in her massively exploding backside long before her belly popped? Also, no matter how good Kim is with “contouring” make-up, there is no way she is faking those blue veins in her exposed bosom. Kim would be way less miserable if she stayed off the airplanes but she seems to think she is nothing unless she is seen. That is the sad part about all of this.
Gotta love the subtitle on the article. “American woman, stay away from me. American woman, mama let me be. Coloured lights can hypnotize, sparkle someone else’s eyes…”
During her first pregnancy Kim’s feet were absurdly swollen. Why aren’t they swollen right now?
And the bump is too big for a 4 month pregnancy. Pillowy pregnancy for sure
It is obvious Kim continues to color/dye her hair and use fillers/Botox. I thought these things were considered pregnancy no-nos. She also claimed she has gained 20lbs. or so, yet none of this weight gain shows in her face? Strange.
