Kimmy Cakes hates her thighs.

KIM KARDASHIAN hates her thighs. Despite having a body that many women would aspire to, the reality star Kim Kardashian says that her thighs are the area she dislikes the most.

She said: "I really don't like my thighs. No matter how much running I do, I just can't get them how I want them to be. I wish they were smaller.

"But you know what? They are a part of me and I have to learn to love them. I'm still learning, though!"

However, the curvy star does like her stomach and admits she does sit-ups every day to keep it toned.

She said: "I work hard to keep it flat, so I'm pretty proud of it. I make sure I do sit-ups every day - I have to. I try to do at least 200 every day.

"But then I also do loads of working out and running, so it's a bit of a combination."

She added: "When I was a teenager I hated being curvy. But, as you grow up, you learn to love yourself and everything about you. At every stage, there's a point when you're uncomfortable but you grow out of it."

MAG COVERS: BRIDGET KELLY COVERS HONEY MAGAZINE


Roc Nation’s singer/songwriter Bridget Kelly covered the September 2010 issue of Honey Magazine. The singer is known for her performance in “Empire State of Mind” at the Jay-Z’s 2009 9/11 Benefit Concert at Madison Square Garden. In the interview she talks about how she started in music, her views on R&B today and her thoughts about the Alicia Keys comparisons:

I think why not? I don’t mind it. It’s not a bad comparison. She’s an incredible person, an incredible singer-songwriter, so to even be put next to her to me was very flattering in the beginning and is still very, very flattering. I don’t mind being compared to her at all. But I think my music speaks a little differently. [ SOURCE ]

KID CUDI COVERS COMPLEX & TALKS DRUG USE + BEHIND THE SCENES VIDEO


Kid Cudi covers the Oct./Nov. issue of Complex, set to hit stands October 5, discussing his role as a new dad, why he started using drugs and his new album, Man on the Moon II: The Legend of Mr. Rager, set to be released November 9.

How heavy did the drug use get?
Kid Cudi: I started doing cocaine to get through interviews, ’cause people wanted to know a lot about my personal life and I wasn’t prepared for a 60 Minutes interview every time. Doing bumps I was able to get through the day, but then I would smoke weed to calm me down—it was the only way I could get through the day without people noticing I was doing it.

Did you ever feel like you had a problem?
Kid Cudi: I never thought it was a problem, but I was definitely high-fiving death a couple of times. It took a lot for me to talk about shit like this on the album. I don’t feel like I need to explain myself to anyone besides the fans. My fans don’t believe shit until they hear me say it. And those are true Kid Cudi fans. I want them to know the story.
