Khloe Kardashian is often compared to sisters Kim and Kourtney, and we’re not talking comparing IQ’s!

The youngest Kardashian sister, 28, says that she understand she’s not a teeny little gal, and that being in the public eye can be hurtful but also, kinda weirdly helpful.  Khloe tells Cosmo UK:

“I’ve always known that I’m not Kim and I’m not Kourtney — I’ve always been OK with that. I probably thought I was prettier before I entered the spotlight because being compared to somebody else every day does sort of beat up your spirit and soul. But it’s made me stronger.”

The reality star just dropped 20 lbs, but she wants to let everyone know it isn’t about comparing herself to others, but about being healthier.

“I want to say I don’t care, but of course [the comments] are going to sting,” she said. However, “I have to do whatever is good for me … I feel that I’m healthier [now], but I don’t think I’m prettier thinner.”

Hey, it’s gotta be rough being the awkward sister.  Still, I kinda dig Khloe.  What do you think of her outspokenness on body issues?

Oh, Khloe Kardashian. It must be hard seeing your big sis Kim Kardashian pregnant, when you want a baby so badly yourself!

It’s definitely no secret that the reality star has had a tough time getting pregnant, and in the March 31 episode of Kourtney & Kim Take Miami, the 28-year-old awkwardly opens up about her infertility issues at a meal with stepbrother Brandon Jenner and his wife, Leah Felder.

Via US:

“How long have you guys been trying?” Brandon asks the X Factor co-host.

“Since I married Lamar,” Kardashian-Odom replies. The spouses decided to take a break from fertility treatments and see if they could conceive a child naturally, to no avail.

“About a year ago, we were like, ‘Let’s just see what happens.’ And then when it didn’t happen, Kim was like, ‘Let’s go to the doctor,’” the NBA player’s wife says. “I found out I don’t ovulate, and now my uterus lining isn’t thick enough and I have to take pills to make my uterus lining thicker. If that doesn’t get thicker, then I cannot carry a baby.”

We officially know EVERYTHING about the Kardashians, don’t we?

On the court, that is!

In what would be an incredibly juicy game to watch, the Clippers beat the Nets on Saturday night, 101 to 95…which means the two power forwards, Kris Humphries and Lamar Odom…who are still technically brothers-in-law, went head to head on the court!

The Kardashians really are the great uniters!

Both were very professional (which was a change for Kris Humphries, I’d imagine) and played the game respectfully. Still, I wonder if there was any apprehension or awkwardness between two.  Or hey, maybe they felt closer than ever? Both are somewhat estranged from their wives (on paper, anyway), and dealing with crazy publicity because of it!

Neither of them scored, so it was way there was less personal vendetta involved.  Still, I love the idea of them playing Bball against one another. Do you think Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian tuned in?

Looks like all those rumors seem to be adding up…

Life & Style  reports that reality star Khloe Kardashian and husband Lamar Odom are on a “trial separation” right now!  Wow.  From headlines about freaky sex, divorce and job ups and downs, I can’t say that this is a surprise.  Life & Style Reports in their new issue…

“He told Khloé he needs time to think and be away from her,” an insider shares in the new issue of Life & Style. “He feels completely smothered by her. He feels like he has lost a lot of himself in their marriage and being a part of the whole Kardashian machine, and he is over it.”

Lamar’s first night away was Jan. 28 — and he didn’t waste any time falling back into his bad habits. An insider says he was back to “partying and talking to other women,” just days into the break. In fact, an eyewitness tells Life & Style on Jan. 31 Lamar was grinding with a scantily clad brunette at Bloke & 4th in Toronto. “They were into each other and majorly flirting,” a fellow clubgoer tells Life & Style. “At one point, Lamar sat down, took off his knit cap, and the woman was right there rubbing his head.”

On Jan. 30 — their second day apart — Khloé arrived two hours late to a Kardashian Kollection clothing campaign shoot. “Khloé looked flustered and as if she’d been crying,” an on-set insider dishes to Life & Style. “She didn’t speak to anyone and went straight into hair and makeup. Her assistant came out and told staff that they needed to get her a glass of champagne. It was only 8 a.m.! Something was very wrong — and everyone was speculating it was because of Lamar.”

“Lamar just wants to be with his teammates and friends and let loose — he and Khloé were barely speaking when he left for his road games,” the insider adds. “I wouldn’t be surprised if he moved out after this separation. He is completely checked out.”

Wow, that sound serious.  I wonder how long things have been like this, or if all this stuff is even true. The Kardashians have all had their share of romantic and career hardships…but that’s what they signed up for, no? And that’s what Odom signed up for when he MARRIED one!

Everyone knows that what Simon Cowell says goes, and this reality legend wants Khloe Kardashian to host X Factor!

Now, it’s in the network’s hands.

TMZ says Simon made the case that Khloe, because her stardomwill make the show’s audience  skew younger than last season.  In addition, Khloe has both personal and professional connections to Britney Spears and Demi Lovato, and Simon believes the three of them could create an authentic vibe that will also make The X Factor more fun to watch and more entertaining than some of the other shows like it (ahem, ahem, American Idol/The Voice). 

TMZ was told told FOX must now sign off on Simon’s choice and that a final decision will be made within the week.

I think it’s highly likely FOX will go with Simon’s wishes…but man, can you imagine Demi, Britney and Khloe all judging a show? They’re all..so different. It seems like a grab bag of skill, accomplishment and opinion.

Maybe that’s a good thing?!  THOUGHTS?!

Khloe Kardashian is making a move to be the next judge on The X Factor!

She’s come a long way, and it’s kind of an eyebrow-raiser that she’s on the list for possible new judges.  Sources connected with the show tell TMZ that they’ve whittled down the list of possible new X Factor Judges to 6, and Khloe is definitely on it.

TMZ reports that Khloe really wants the gig, but she’s not going to continue to be on their radar until she takes a screen test, which will most likely happen in the next two weeks. It isn’t just Khloe, though- anyone who wants the job must take a screen test.  No special (or harder) treatment for the reality star!

This would be a big jump for Khloe- and would show how popular and strong the Kardashian franchise really is.  I wonder if husband Lamar Odom supports Khloe’s interest in judging…?

Khloe K takes her 15K…to work out? I’d love to know how much her non-gym purses cost her!

Khloe Kardashian was spotted out and about yesterday with a 15,000 dollar Hermes Birkin tote and a very odd sweatsuit with the word “LOVE” all over it.  Seems like a strange way to spend the day in Beverly Hills, but after the paparazzi did some investigation,  they found Khloe making her way to a local gym.  Khloe’s been sweating her little LOVE butt off at an LA gym a couple times a week, but that’s not important enough to warrant such an expensive bag, is it?

What does hubby Lamar Odom think? And what do YOU think?
