The Kardashian sisters could be left with an expensive legal bill after they were sued for allegedly stealing the name for Khroma Beauty, for which they are guaranteed to make up to $6.2 million.

Make-up artist Lee Tillett is seeking $10 million in damages from the sisters and Boldface Group Inc, which markets their line.

Lee Tillett claims it infringes on her Kroma Make-up line, which she founded back in 2004.

Florida native Lee Tillett told the Orlando Sentinel: “I developed the Kroma line myself, built my business through my own hard work, and took the legal steps necessary to protect it.

“And yet I have now been forced into legal battle with the Kardashians simply because they have decided to take something that doesn’t belong to them.”

It is the latest move in a legal tussle that began when she sent a cease and desist letter last July urging them to stop using the name.

In response Boldface petition a California federal court to get a judgement the name Kroma “consists solely of a descriptive term and lacks any inherent distinctive meaning to the relevant consuming public and therefore is conceptually weak”.

On the Kroma website it states the word means color in Greek, but adds how Lee Tillett used her 22 years (experience) of “creating looks for thousands of women” and “personally selected all of the shades and has personally made all of the formulas”.

And in her formal federal court response she claims the promotion of Khroma was likely to mislead customers into thinking her line is associated with the Kardashian sisters.

She added: “The false association is damaging … and threatens to destroy its business.”

According to the counter-claims, Boldface has paid the Kardashians an upfront advance of $1 million for licensing rights, with guaranteed minimum royalty payments of $4.6 million to $5.2 million, depending on launch dates of various products.

As part of the deal, they allegedly have some power over the product line and that Kim Kardashian “proposed” it be called Khroma.

Lee Tillett’s attorney Elliot Gipson claims the 32-year-old should have known better.

He pointed to discussions by representatives for himself and TLK Fusion, which allegedly acted as Kardashian’s product-placement agent for a show that was being produced by Kim.

He said: “On or about May 2010, representatives for Tillett and TLK Fusion were engaged in discussions regarding the possible product placement of the KROMA cosmetics line on the television reality show special The SPINdustry that was scheduled to air on E! Entertainment Television following an episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians.”

No deal was ever reached, but if this is true she could have advance knowledge the name was already in use.

Kardashians spokesman Todd Wilson claims the sisters “have acted properly at all times”.

This is not the only lawsuit the product line is engulfed in at the moment.

Los Angeles-based Chroma Makeup Studio is also suing for alleged trademark infringement.

From a cornflower blue dress from Zara to a pair of vibrant pink jeans, Kate Middleton’s wardrobe choices have sent high street sales soaring with shoppers desperate to emulate her impeccable style.

But it seems that not everyone is reaping the rewards of the “Kate effect”, with designer Roland Mouret admitting that Kim Kardashian has more selling power than the Duchess.

Kate Middleton wowed the world when she stepped out in one of his show-stopping cream gowns at Claridge’s last year, but French designer Roland Mouret said the 30-year-old doesn’t boost his sales as much as reality TV star Kim Kardashian.

“You don’t see hundreds of women running around looking like her [Kate Middleton],” he said.

“To be honest, we’re more likely to get orders on a dress that Kim Kardashian’s worn,” he told The Telegraph.

Roland Mouret attributes this to the fact that the Duchess has no interested in drawing in the attention of the media, unlike Kim Kardashian who lets the media follow her life on a daily basis.

Speaking about Kate Middleton’s fashion choices, Roland Mouret said: “She’s highly attuned to those details that will provoke a tabloid frenzy and above all, she does not want a tabloid frenzy.

“She doesn’t seem to feel the need to dress sexily to woo the world.

“She’s dressing for William and herself.”

And it seems that the Duchess is so afraid of the media frenzy that she once asked for one of her gowns to be altered to fit less tightly.

“She doesn’t want a bottom situation like Pippa had,” said Roland Mouret.

Roland Mouret earned himself the much coveted title of “King of the dress” after his Galaxy dress was named the “dress of the decade” and worn by every A-lister in tinsel town.

But after a few years out of the glare of the spotlight, Roland Mouret is back and ready to give his own iconic number a run for its money with a brand new collection – no doubt hoping for the endorsement of both Kim Kardashian and the Duchess of Cambridge.

Pregnant Kim Kardashian and her boyfriend Kanye West appear to be preparing a home fit for a little prince – or princess if a new report is to be believed.

TMZ claims Kim Kardashian and rapper Kanye West  have bought an $11 million mansion in Bel Air, where they will set up home together for the first time.

The news website reports the soon to be parents are now the proud owners of a 10,000-square-foot home in a private gated community in California’s exclusive Bel Air suburb.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West will join A-list neighbor Jennifer Aniston, Los Angeles Clippers basketball player Chris Paul, and founder of the Girls Gone Wild entertainment franchise Joe Francis as the famous names in the neighborhood.

Kanye West, 35, is well known for his love of interior design and will no doubt be keen to put his stamp on their first home together.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are looking forward to the birth of their first child in June.

The website report that the couple have already gutted the interior and are planning to add an extra 4,000 feet to complete their dream home.

A source told TMZ the new home will be “an Italian-style villa, with a gym, movie theater, full hair and make-up salon, bowling alley, basketball court, indoor and outdoor pool”.

Not forgetting a nursery of course.

News of the couple’s nestbuilding came as Kim Kardashian, 32,was seen out in Miami on Monday, covering her bump in a billowing sheer tunic top, under a waterfall jacket.

And she opted for comfortable loose white trousers, and a fierce pair of caged heels.

Kim Kardashian was joined by her friend Jonathan Cheban as they spent a day wandering around the shops in Miami.

The reality star recently left the Florida city after completing filming her reality show, but returned over the weekend for a bikini photoshoot on the beach.

The couple surprised many when they reportedly turned down a $3 million offer for the first photos of their baby.

A source close to Kim Kardashian told gossip website TMZ.com that she and Kanye West have been flooded with lucrative offers for their child’s first pictures and were offered $3 million from one publication outside the US.

Kim Kardashian has already been offered $250,000 to host a pregnancy website after being approached by David Dginguerian, an Armenian filmmaker, about working with a planned membership-only website called MyPregnancy.com.

It is unclear if Kim Kardashian will sign up as it was recently revealed that she and Kanye West are reportedly planning to share the pregnancy and their adjustment to parenthood with their fans through a show on E!.

E! Entertainment network president Suzanne Kolb previously said: “Kim and Kanye are an incredibly dynamic couple, and their baby news is just so exciting.

“Like so many Kardashian fans, we love it when this close-knit family gets even bigger. We look forward to sharing the joy as they prepare for more diapers, more bottles and without a doubt, more fabulous baby wear.”

Kim Kardashian and her boyfriend Kanye West are said to have turned down a huge $3 million offer for the first exclusive photos of their yet to be born child.

A source told website TMZ that the couple have been “flooded” with lucrative offers from media outlets desperate to be the first to publish the baby pictures.

The huge $3 million offer compares to Brangelina’s $4.1million payout following the birth of their first child Shiloh in 2006. Although that was dwarfed by the $14 million they received after the birth of the twins.

The couple donated the payments to a charitable trust they had set up.

The news of Kim Kardashian’s decision is all the more surprising as unlike other more private stars she has previously shown no interest in hiding any facet of her life from public view.

But perhaps her boyfriend is the one behind the move.

Kanye West, 35, has previously been reported to be uncomfortable with the way Kim Kardashian, 32, lives, with her reality shows, paparazzi attention and self-publicity on her blog combining to put every aspect of her life under constant public scrutiny.

And of course with their combined fortunes the pair have no financial need to accept the cash.

Luckily for KimYe fans they can still get an insight into how the new baby might look, at least according to a top forensic artist.

US forensic artist Joe Mullins studied recent photographs of Kim Kardashian and Kanye West and used the latest computer technology to predict how their children might look.

According to Joe Mullins, a baby boy would inherit Kanye West’s nose and face shape and Kim Kardashian’s lips.

A baby girl would take more after her glamorous mother, with deep brown eyes and glossy dark hair.

Pregnant Kim Kardashian flew into Miami on Sunday and announced plans to head off on a promotional tour to the Ivory Coast.

Kim Kardashian, 32, wore oversized glasses and went make-up free as she arrived at the airport.

Her oversized pink shirt skimmed what appeared to be the start of a baby bump, with Kim teaming it with a white blazer, loose brown pants and nude heels.

Earlier on Saturday, Kim Kardashian tweeted that she was enjoying a bit of sweets, something which her celebrity trainer Tracy Anderson may not approve of.

“Apple pie caramel apple from the Rockie Mountain Chocolate Factory. Oldie but gooooooodie!!!!” she wrote.

The slip in healthy eating as a big departure for Kim Kardashian, who hired Tracy Anderson based on her latest workout venture, the Pregnancy Project, and her expertise with helping women stay on track.

Instead of celebrating the holiday of Armenian Christmas with her family, Kim Kardashian has been visiting friends in the beach city, including Real Housewives of Miami star Larsa Pippen.

Next on the travel agenda for Kim Kardashian is a trip to the volatile Ivory Coast city of Abidjan for a series of paid events.

“I will be in Abidjan on Jan 19 for two special events. Get your #malife card now!” the she posted on Sunday.

She has been tweeting quite a bit about the trip in the past week, especially regarding the news that 61 people were killed in a stampede in the streets after a New Year’s fireworks celebration.

Kim Kardashian wrote: “Reading about the terrible tragedy in Abidjan. So sad! I’m heading there in a few weeks… my prayers are with you all! #drameplateau.”

The expectant mother should also be careful of a travel advisory issued by the U.S. government, which warns visitors to the Ivory Coast of the dangers of high crime in the area.

According to the advisory, which was posted on the Department of State’s website in November, cautions that “crimes, such as muggings, robbery, burglary, and carjacking, pose risks for foreign visitors in Abidjan and around the country”.

“You should take precautions when stopped in heavy traffic or at road blocks due to the threat of assault and/or robbery, and avoid travel outside Abidjan after dark to minimize risk,” the advisory continues.

Kim Kardashian and boyfriend Kanye West are said to be against making their unborn child a reality TV star in the first years of its life.

TMZ cited sources close to the family as saying Kim Kardashian and Kanye West had decided to shield their kid from the cameras to “ensure real privacy” for their offspring.

The entertainment website said even when baby Kimye grows up it still may never appear on the family’s hit show Keeping Up With the Kardashians, or any of its spinoffs.

Kim Kardashian’s sister Kourtney has often kept her children, son Mason and daughter Penelope, away from the spotlight too.

Kourtney Kardashian told People in 2011 she got “weirded out to have [Mason] on camera”, adding, “he can’t make the decision if he wants to be involved in this craziness or not”.

Kim Kardashian is believed to be about 12 weeks into the pregnancy, which was announced onstage by her rapper boyfriend.

With the announcement of Kim Kardashian’s pregnancy, the showbiz world has been sent into fervour, speculating about names, the unborn child’s sex and what he or she might look like.

But of course another big question is… where did Kim Kardashian and boyfriend Kanye West seal the deal?

One likely location where they may have conceived is Italy. Kim Kardashian was there with her man around three months ago where she enjoyed a romantic break ahead of her 32nd birthday.

On Sunday – just hours before Kanye West broke the baby news with a shout out to his “baby mama” while live in concert in Atlantic City, Kim Kardashian posted her second best moment of 2012 on her blog, describing her “amazing” October trip (she is yet to post her No.1 moment of 2012).

Kim Kardashian recalled: “We started the trip in Rome, saw the Colosseum, went to the Vatican and saw the Sistine Chapel.

“Then we went to Florence, where we stayed in this gorgeous castle, did some sightseeing and shopped around town. Then for my birthday we spent the day in Venice. Just amazing!! Xo.”

Certainly sounds like the recipe for love and the perfect backdrop to make another Kardashian baby.

Kim Kardashian is believed to be roughly around the 12 mark period.

On Monday Kim Kardashian and Kanye West were spotted for the first time since their pregnancy news as they headed through Los Angeles International Airport bound for Las Vegas.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West certainly weren’t keeping a low profile in the wake of baby news as they spent New Year’s Eve partying in Las Vegas, reportedly earning a staggering $450,000 for their efforts.

Pregnant Kim Kardashian, who confirmed that she was expecting just hours before jetting to Vegas, hid her figure under a sheer lace dress by Welsh designer Julien McDonald as she posed next her boyfriend on the red carpet at the Mirage Hotel.

Clearly over-the-moon about her pregnancy, Kim Kardashian was happy to chat to press and pose for photographs ahead of the blow-out New Year’s Eve party.

The reality star – who is around three months pregnant and due at the end of June – shied away from her usual cleavage-baring outfit, instead opting for a more demure, black midi dress.

Even through the knee-length dress had sheer paneling, her curves were cleverly hidden under strategically placed lace, offering no hint of a bump.

Proving just how loved up the parents-to-be are, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West cosied up on the red carpet, clearly delighted that they’ve been able to share their happy news with the world.

Kim Kardashian wore her hair in a stylish side plait and added muted make-up, creating a wide-eyed look with large, false lashes.

Even though they’re going to be focusing on starting a family this year, that clearly doesn’t mean that the couple are going to be shirking their work commitments.

Instead of seeing in 2013 with an intimate evening, Kim Kardashian and Kanye West happily made their appearance at the pricey party at 1 Oak Nightclub, where tickets are $125 for women and $150 for men, while it’s $3000 to hire a table.

When the clock struck midnight, the loved up couple held each other close and had a passionate kiss in front of a sea of people.

Looking ecstatically happy, Kim Kardashian through her head back and laughed during the countdown, her arms wrapped around Kanye West.

The couple were joined by friends including John Legend and Lance Bass, who partied in the VIP area.

KimKardashian, 32, and Kanye West, 35, were last seen together on Christmas Day when they attended a basketball game to watch Kim’s brother-in-law Lamar Odom play with his new team The Clippers.

Kanye West was seen carefully attending to his girlfriend and holding her hand as they sat side by side in the front row. They left at half time, with Kim Kardashian later tweeting that she felt “unwell”.

“In bed with the flu all day. Praying this goes away fast!” the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star wrote.

Kim Kardashian is still married to her estranged second husband Kris Humphries. The pair’s divorce has been prolonged as the basketball star has insisted on a court case, claiming the marriage should be annulled as it was “fraud”.

Kanye West spent the Christmas period with Kim Kardashian’s family, who have welcomed him with open arms.

Kim Kardashian has also become close to Kanye West’s family after being he took her to visit them in Oklahoma City while visiting his mother Donda West’s grave last month.

Since Kim Kardashian and Kanye West began dating in April they have rarely been apart.

Despite the shortness of their relationship, the two have been friends for years.

It has even been speculated that the rapper had been in love with Kim Kardashian back in 2009, when he appeared to refer to her in his track Knock You Down.

At the time the song was penned, Kim Kardashian was in a relationship with NFL star Reggie Bush, whom she went on to date on and off for three years.

The song includes the lines: “You was always the cheerleader of my dreams… To seem to only date the head of football teams… And I was the class clown that always kept you laughing… We were never meant to be, baby we just happened.”

He then goes on to rap: “You should leave your boyfriend now.”

And in December 2010, Kanye West was on hand when Kim Kardashian filmed her music video Jam (Turn It Up).

In scenes later broadcast on her reality show Kris Jenner was seen jokingly criticizing Kanye West for eyeing up Kim Kardashian, telling him: “Don’t be looking at her a**.”

Not one to miss a beat, quick-witted Kanye West replied: “I’ve never seen it actually.”

The irony wasn’t lost on fans when Kim Kardashian signed on to appear in Tyler Perry’s new film Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor in 2011.

Hot on the heels of ending one of Hollywood’s shortest marriages, Kim Kardashian plays social-climber Ava, a preened business woman who loves figure-hugging dresses and lambastes her co-workers for not meeting her standards of style and beauty.

A newly-released trailer for the comedy proves the role isn’t much of a stretch for the star.

Kim Kardashian’s voice narrates the top of the two-and-a-half minute clip.

“We have a billion dollars walking in and out of these offices looking for love.”

The scene opens from a sweeping cityscape to the sprawling offices where Kim Kardashian’s character rips into marriage counselor Judith, played by Jurnee Smollett.

“You have a standard to uphold. That blouse,” she miffs.

“It’s telling it all.”

Not to be undone by her image-obsessed colleague, Judith questions Ava’s cotton candy pink dress – not unlike the ones Kim Kardashian is so often seen pouring herself into on her day-to-day outings.

“What’s wrong with my dress?” she squeaks, eyes glazed, head tilted in confusion.

“Can you breathe?” he adversary asks.

Kim Kardashian’s character narrates the arrival of “the largest social media investor since Zuckerberg,” in reference to billionaire Facebook co-founder Mark.

Robbie Jones stars as Harvey, who seduces Judith, an Ivy League educated relationship expert, into considering leaving her husband to be with him.

When the rush of their affair fades, she soon realizes she’s made a mistake.

Vanessa Williams, Brandy Norwood and Eric West also star in the film, described by Perry as “a bold exploration of the intrigue and perils of infidelity”.

Kim Kardashian, 32, took to her blog on Thursday to share the release of the teaser.

“Temptation Trailer is Here!” she wrote.

“I’m so excited to reveal the trailer for the new Tyler Perry movie I am in called Temptation, which debuted on Yahoo! Movies today!

“This has been an incredible experience for me and I’m so excited for the movie to come out on March 29, 2013.”

Principle photography for the film began in Atlanta, Georgia in October, 2011 – the same month Kim Kardashian filed for divorce from Kris Humphries.

Kim Kardashian is still legally married to Kris Humphries, although she has moved on to date longtime friend, Kanye West.

Her divorce attorney told a judge last month Kim wants to move on with her life but is “handcuffed” to her estranged husband because their divorce case is not yet ready for trial.

Nick Cannon has revealed that he dumped Kim Kardashian after she “lied” to him about the existence of her now-infamous sex tape.

Despite calling Kim Kardashian “one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet”, Nick Cannon explained that he couldn’t forgive her for denying the tape existed.

Nick Cannon, now happily married to Mariah Carey, briefly dated Kim Kardashian from September 2006 to January 2007.

Speaking on The Howard Stern Show last week he explained: “This was my issue. We talked about this tape…And she told me there was no tape.

“If she might have been honest with me I might have tried to hold her down and be like <<That was before me>> because she is a great girl.

“She’s actually one of the nicest people you’ll ever meet. But the fact that she lied and told me that there was no tape?”

Kim Kardashian made the tape while with then-boyfriend Ray J in 2003. Its release brought her to a wide audience and directly led to her now-lucrative reality star career.

Nick Cannon revealed that he had always suspected that Kim Kardashian might have had something to do with the tape’s release.

“And I still think she might have even had a part to play with [its release],” he said.

It seems unlikely Kim Kardashian will be too concerned about losing out with Nick Cannon, however.

Since their breakup she has gone on to become one of America’s biggest stars, despite her lack of talent.

Nick Cannon seems to appreciate this, adding: “I think she’s a great businesswoman if you ask me.”

Kim Kardashian is now happily dating rapper Kanye West.

He certainly doesn’t seem put off by her tape – in fact The Stronger rapper appears to make reference to the reality star’s infamous 2007 tape in his track Clique.

The song – which will feature on his album Cruel Summer – includes the line: “Eat breakfast at Gucci. My girl a superstar all from a home movie.”

Kim Kardashian’s other ex-boyfriends include Gabriel Aubry and Nick Lachey. She is currently locked in a messy divorce with second husband Kris Humphries, after a brief and disastrous marriage.

Her rise to fame saw her introduced her to Hollywood’s socialite scene by her then close friend Paris Hilton.

Paris Hilton soon came to regret the move, as she was overshadowed by Kim Kardashian  when her sex tape was leaked, with pornography company Vivid buying the rights to the video for $1 million.

It was particularly galling for Paris Hilton, as a similar film featuring her had been leaked in 2003, briefly making her one of the world’s most notorious celebrities.

While Kim Kardashian has always claimed she was “devastated” by the release of the tape, it certainly made her a star.

It has even been alleged her mother Kris Jenner brokered the deal, with Kim Kardashian receiving a hefty advance worth between $250,000 and $500,000.

Kim Kardashian filmed the sex tape when she was 23, and Keeping Up With The Kardashians premiered eight months after its release.

Back in June reports emerged that Kris Jenner had allegedly instructed Kim to make the video and even had her re-shoot it because the first take wasn’t “pretty enough”.

Kim Kardashian’s younger sister Khloe was infuriated by the claims and said: “That is just disgusting and disturbing, and probably HIS fantasy!”

Kendall Jenner had no trouble stealing the limelight from her big sisters as she posed in backless dress for the annual Kardashian-Jenner Christmas card.

As Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian smiled for the camera, their little sister sat at the front showing off her best model pose in her daring choice of outfit.

This year’s card saw all the family gather for the annual tradition, including two new members – Kourtney Kardashian’s daughter Penelope and Kim’s tragic kitten Mercy.

Adorable Penelope can be seen gazing wide eyed at the camera, a white lace band on her head. And little Mercy can be seen crouching inside a cube, her white hair fitting perfectly with the theme.

Sadly since the card was shot the kitten has been put down after the four-month-old was discovered to have a virus that had attacked her internal organs.

Also seen in the card are matriarch Kris Jenner and her former Olympian husband Bruce, who put on a show of unity after denying rumors of marital discord.

Kim Kardashian shared the car online, writing: “Here it is!! Our 2012 family Christmas card shot by the amazing Nick Saglimbeni! We had such a fun time shooting this!”

But all may not be as it seems.

Khloe Kardashian has admitted that she and husband Lamar Odom, 33, missed the photoshoot for the card and had to be added in later with the help of some computer wizardry.

Appearing on Ellen DeGeneres’ talk show last month, the 28-year-old said: “We pretend that we’re always together. The powers of cameras and Photoshop.”

Kim Kardashian ex-husband Kris Humphries can do a lot of things, but comedy is not one of them.

Kris Humphries appears in a “secret” new Funny or Die video clip that shows him tackling some of the world’s biggest issues.

The video, which is meant to reveal the “genius” side of Kris Humphries, shows him appearing as a chess wizard, a master at Battleship, and a spelling guru, among other things.

He also takes on some bigger issues including the Greek debt crisis and the world’s massive global warming problem, but none of it is exactly funny.

“I hope no one sees this and realizes I’m more than just a basketball player,” Kris Humphries boasts during the unfortunate clip.

Unfortunately, the video was posted on-line for the world to see and it doesn’t do him any favors.

Kris Humphries, who was married to Kim Kardashian for 72 days, is no stranger to Funny or Die.

In May he appeared in another clip that mocked Kim Kardashian’s latest love, Kanye West.

The profanity-laden skit showed Kris Humphries wearing shutter shades identical to the ones Kanye West has sported on stage.

It also showed Kris Humphries listening to marketers pitch ideas to help monetize his unpopular image.

They throw ideas at him like selling toilet paper with his face on it, urinal cakes, punching bags and cheesy clothing.

First up Kim Kardashian raises temperatures in a racy lace bra and panty set complete with suspenders and cream silk stockings.

The reality star’s ensemble is topped off with a luxurious-looking fur coat and giant diamond and enamel floral ring and matching bracelet.

With her famous full lips heavily glossed, Kim Kardashian does her best pout and smoldering stare for the camera.

This time instead of wearing her glossy locks down, she has them tousled up in a messy bedhead style.

In another snap, Kim Kardashian wears her hair down in a somewhat Fifties voluminous style.

And the reality star is certainly every inch the pin-up girl in a beige satin lingerie set, this time paired with a darker fur coat and sky-high Christian Louboutin heels.

Kim Kardashian’s shoot also switches to playful, as she changes into a cream sheer set with a sleeveless shirt worn over her top half and tied at the waist.

She pushes her already ample cleavage together creating even more lift.

The coquettish look is completed with a feather boa and a wide-brimmed hat.

Kim Kardashian is not only just standing and posing for her French fashion shoot.

She also reclines on a shell-shaped sofa, wearing a vintage white lace basque, matching silk stocking and white heels.

Kim Kardashian once again drapes her feather boa around her body and gives a smoldering stare into the camera.

And for her most sexiest shot of all, and one that is bound to get boyfriend Kanye West’s heart racing, is one of Kim Kardashian sprawled across a mirrored coffee table.

Jutting out her famous derriere, Kim Kardashian’s curves look sublime in a sheer cream lace and silk set paired with leopard print stilettos, pearls and yet another fur accoutrement.

Launched in February 2011, Factice Magazine is a French, fashion and online (every two months) magazine.

It is just one of the many projects which Kim Kardashian has been working on of late.

The always busy star has been jetting around the world in the last few months doing photo shoots and promoting her clothing line, as well as being in Miami to shoot her reality TV show Kourtney & Kim Take Miami.

Kim Kardashian’s kitten Mercy has died after only four months on this planet.

Kim Kardashian, 32, received the adorable white Persian kitty from her rapper boyfriend Kanye West last September, but was unable to care for it herself after discovering she was allergic.

“I had fallen SO in love with Mercy that I wanted to try everything I could to keep her, but I didn’t think it was safe to resort to injections,” Kim Kardashian told her 16.7 million followers Friday.

On October 16, Kim Kardashian passed along the responsibility of the furry feline to her sister Khloe’s assistant Sydney Hitchcock, who had lost her own cat after 17 years.

Kim Kardashian continued: “After a couple of weeks Mercy got really sick and Sydney had to rush her to the vet. They discovered she had a stomach problem that we weren’t aware of. Poor little Mercy died the very next day.”

According to E! News, Sydney Hitchcock got a call from her boyfriend saying the feline was “limp and not moving” on November 26, and the next day they had Mercy euthanized.

Unfortunately, the fatal, cancer-like virus attacked Mercy’s tiny stomach and Kim Kardashian was reportedly quick to point the finger at the breeder.

“Kim is really upset,” a source told E! News.

“She was upset about Mercy dying and upset that she was trying to do something nice for Sydney and then she fell into a situation where [Sydney] had to grieve another kitty. Kim called the breeder and said they should be more responsible.”

Kim Kardashian had always dreamed of owning a kitten and named Mercy after one of Kanye West’s songs.

“My heart is completely broken,” Kim Kardashian said on herofficial blog.

“Mercy was a gentle and loving kitten and we are all going to miss her so much. Thanks to Sydney for making Mercy’s short life one filled with love. RIP Mercy Xo.”

The US presidential election became the most-searched item and Kim Kardashian was the most-searched person on Yahoo in 2012, a year when online searches were dominated by big news stories and pop culture obsessions, the search engine company said on Monday.

The search term “election” topped the list of searches, led not only by extensive media coverage but also widening conversation on online social media platforms.

The term “political polls” was No. 8 of the top 10 searches of the year.

“The 2012 elections dominated the online searches, which is amazing because if something is in the news, it’s already accessible … people were really saturated by it, but even so, that was a key word that people typed throughout the year,” Vera Chan, Yahoo’s web trend analyst, said in a conference call.

Vera Chan said only two other news stories have topped the list in the past decade, those being the death of Michael Jackson in 2009 and the BP oil spill in 2010.

“iPhone 5” came in at No. 2, which Vera Chan said was interesting “in a post-Steve Jobs era” because while Apple Inc’s iPhone has featured regularly in the top searches since the first generation emerged in 2007, this was the first time a specific model had appeared high on the list.

Kim Kardashian was the most-searched person on the website, coming in at No. 3 and leading six famous women in the top 10.

Vera Chan said Kim Kardashian’s “notoriety has kept her at the top”, citing her ongoing divorce saga with ex-husband Kris Humphries, her high-profile relationship with rapper Kanye West and her E! channel reality shows.

Sports Illustrated cover model Kate Upton, British royal Kate Middleton, late singer Whitney Houston, troubled former child star Lindsay Lohan and pop star and former American Idol judge Jennifer Lopez all featured in the top 10 after being in the news prominently throughout the year.

Kate Middleton, who was followed eagerly by fans and critics in her first year as a royal married to Britain’s Prince William and being a staple at the London Olympics and the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee, also garnered the most-searched scandal of the year when a French magazine published photos of her topless.

“Olympics” came in at No. 7 on the list, as many turned to online media to watch and keep tabs on the global sporting event held in London during the summer.

On Yahoo’s separate list of top-searched obsessions, pop culture dominated this year, with The Hunger Games, reality star Honey Boo Boo, erotic novel Fifty Shades of Grey, British boy band One Direction, Carly Rae Jepsen’s hit song Call Me Maybe and Korean rapper Psy’s Gangnam Style featuring in the top 10.

Yahoo compiles its annual search lists based on aggregated visitor activity on the network and billions of consumer searches.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West relationship is going from strength to strength, with Kim apparently planning her wedding to the rapper – although he has yet to propose.

According to reports, Kim Kardashian wants a wedding to rival that of Prince William and Kate Middleton.

Although Kim Kardashian is still legally married to Kris Humphries she is reportedly already planning her nuptials and wants a huge English event.

A source said: “Kim would love to wed at Westminster Abbey like William and Catherine, but that won’t be possible.

“Instead she’s been looking at castles near London. She wants the most spectacular wedding and she’s talking about having guests like Jay-Z and Beyonce, Eva Longoria, Lindsay Lohan, Rihanna and Katy Perry arrive in horse drawn carriages – just like the royal wedding.”

Kim Kardashian reportedly also wants children with Kanye West and has her heart set on twins and is even planning a nursery even though she isn’t pregnant.

The source added to America’s OK! magazine: “It’s going to be huge – at least 2,000 square feet. And luxury is top priority from the carpet to the light fixtures. Kim and Kanye love Old Hollywood so that’s going to be a theme with lots of white and cream with splashes of butter yellow and black and some leopard print.”

Tired looking Kim Kardashian revealed a painful-looking large sore on her upper lip, along with blemishes on her chin as she flew into Miami on Sunday.

Dressed down Kim Kardashian had tied her hair back in a simple bun for her flight, while she wore a simple and conservative outfit of black trousers and white blazer.

It wouldn’t be surprising if Kim Kardashian were feeling a little under the weather.

The reality star had just stepped off an 18 hour flight – which even in first class is bound to be a strain. She jokingly tweeted: “18 hour flight…fun!”

Adding to the stress on her body the reality star was returning from a three-day whirlwind tour of the Gulf, in which she opened milkshake shops in Kuwait and Bahrain.

It was just the latest long haul flight for permanently jet lagged Kim Kardashian. In recent weeks she has visited Italy, London and Los Angeles.

But there isn’t likely to be much of a break for Kim Kardashian, who is in the midst of filming her new reality show, Kourtney And Kim Take Miami.

Kim Kardashian suffers from the skin condition psoriasis, and on her reality show has previously talked about how she uses makeup to disguise the effects.

The hereditary disease was passed down from her mother Kris Jenner.

And while the condition is incurable, the best way to manage it is to lead a “slower-paced life”.

However, busy Kim kardashian has conceded that this is impossible, adding: “People don’t understand the pressure on me to look perfect.”

But while she may be exhausted, at least Kim Kardashian will get a warm welcome in Miami, with sisters Khloe and Kourtney both in town this weekend.

She will also be looking forward to catching up with her boyfriend Kanye West, having tweeted: “I miss you so much,” to her lover while she was away.

Kim Kardashian topped the 2012 list of the most-searched person on Bing while Canadian teen pop star Justin Bieber coming in second.

Kim Kardashian, 32, grabbed the No. 1 spot back from Justin Bieber after she topped Bing’s annual list in 2010 and Bieber came in first last year.

The reality star first found fame in 2007 due to an Internet sex tape and this year she has led a top-ten most searched for, that Justin Bieber aside, is entirely made up of women.

Justin Bieber, 18, came in second after a successful year capped off by sweeping the American Music Awards with his third studio album, Believe, which was released in June.

Others who made it in top 10 for the first time included singers Rihanna, Selena Gomez, Nicki Minaj and Taylor Swift, while Jennifer Lopez, Britney Spears, Megan Fox and Lady Gaga dropped out of the top 10.

Pop culture figures easily trumped politics, even in an election year, with Republican presidential candidate Mitt Romney coming in 43rd and President Barack Obama landing at 46th on the list.

Among the most popular news stories, the release of Apple’s iPhone 5 came in at No. 1, followed by the U.S. election, the Olympics and Superstorm Sandy.

The Here Comes Honey Boo Boo reality TV show landed at No. 5, followed by the Gangnam Style Dance popularized by South Korean rap star Psy’s music video.

The birth of singer Beyonce and Jay Z’s baby topped the most searched celebrity events, followed by Jessica Simpson’s baby and then Whitney Houston’s death.

Looking at the top ten most searched people it seems that girls rule the search engine roost, or at least the top ten, as Justin Bieber is the only male in the run down, with his on-off girlfriend Selena Gomez taking fourth spot.

In the world of reality television, Honey Boo Boo and her special juice caused seven-year-old Alana Thompson to capture the hearts of the globe and race to the sixth most-searched person in that genre and the seventh most-searched television show overall.

And in the world of sports, Peyton Manning and his comeback season at the Denver Bronco’s made him the number one most-searched for athlete of 2012 with perennial favorite Tiger Woods coming in at number two.

The release of the iPhone 5 and the fevered speculation surrounding it ensured that Apple’s flagship device hit the top spot for the most-searched for new story of 2012, beating out the American presidential election and the 2012 London Summer Olympics.

Indeed technology saw a high water mark this year with the launch of the Kindle Fire HD and the mammoth but ultimately disastrous Facebook IPO coming in at numbers nine and ten respectively on the news story list.

And in this an election year, the likes of Big Bird, binders full of women and Mitt Romney’s first debate showing all caused the choice between President Barack Obama and his Republican challenger to rank the second most-searched news story of 2012.

This year also saw the 2012 summer Olympics in London and the likes of swimming sensation Ryan Lochte, gymnast McKayla Maroney and gold medal veterans Michael Phelps all push the quadrennial sporting event to the third most searched event of 2012.

Other notable number ones saw American Idol retain its title as the most searched reality TV show search while Dancing with the Stars pushed its way into the number two spot.

Facebook was the top searched social media on Bing while Twitter and its 140 character’s snapped right on its heels in second place.

Robert Downey Jr. and his super hero buddies in The Avengers made sure that the summer’s big blockbuster was the most searched movie of 2012 while Psy and his ubiquitous and record breaking Gangnam Style K-Pop song accounted for the most-searched song of the year.

Kim Kardashian is a touch jealous of little sister Kendall Jenner’s appearance on the cover of Australian Miss Vogue, at just 17.

Kim Kardashian, 32, tweeted a photograph of Kendall Jenner from the shoot, alongside the post: “Kendall’s legs… I’m jealous!”

Kendall Jenner wears a pair of black hot pants, leather jacket and a velvet shirt in one shot, before changing into a backless black midi-dress with large hat and black high heels for another.

She wears the same outfit on the cover of the magazine as Miss Vogue’s third ever cover girl.

Kendall Jenner is clearly proud of her achievement, tweeting a link to the magazine’s website, and re-tweeting a post from the shoot’s photographer Russell James, who wrote: “Congrats @KendallJenner on your Ms VOGUE cover. Rare few models make it Vogue ever-especially by age 17!”

She also poses in a Gucci black hat with feather detail teamed with a black Burberry belted jumpsuit, and an orange patterned strapless swimsuit with floaty cream blouse.

Despite her envy, Kim Kardashian tweeted how proud she was of her younger half sister, posting: “The Miss Vogue shoot @kendalljenner shot is stunning.”

Kim Kardashian appeared in an equally striking shoot for L’Uomo Vogue back in July, with the black and white cover showing her sporting a short dark wig, oversized sunglasses and being besieged by photographers.

And her older sister Kourtney Kardashian was equally proud, tweeting: “I AM OBSESSED WITH YOU KENDALL! WOW. Breathtaking.”

It has certainly been an eventful week for Kendall Jenner who celebrated her 17th birthday with a party at the family’s Calabasas home.

The statuesque teen spent the evening skating hand-in-hand with actor friend Jaden Smith, 14, on the freshly frozen Kardashian family swimming pool.

Kendall Jenner blew out her candles on a cake bearing a childhood snap, while a drag queen MC presided over the Winter Wonderland festivities at her Los Angeles home.

The Keeping Up with the Kardashians starlet also sported goofy glasses for a silly photobooth and participated in a conga line on the ice with her friends.

However, it must have been hard for mother Kris Jenner to top the $90,000 Range Rover she reportedly gave Kendall for her sweet 16 last year.

Meanwhile, Kendall and Kylie Jenner were voted one of Zimbio‘s 2012 Most Influential Women Under 30 in TV, thanks to their fast-growing fame and combined seven million fans.

Kendall Jenner recently made her acting debut on a November 5 episode of Hawaii Five-0 on CBS.

The Jenner girls soon plan to launch their own clothing line, and they’re also penning their first sci-fi novel, due out next summer, with the help of co-writer Maya Sloane for publisher Karen Hunter at Simon & Schuster.

Kim Kardashian made her modeling debut by posing for Vogue earlier this year when she featured in a cover shoot for the Italian edition of the fashion bible.

And if you couldn’t get enough of the pictures of the reality TV star smouldering in revealing black dresses, now you can watch a behind-the-scenes video of the shoot.

You can view a segment of the footage below while the full video is currently available on the Vogue Italia website.

The clip shows Kim Kardashian, 32, lying on the floor in a racy animal skin dress, while in another shot, she wears a black sleeveless Mark Zunino Couture gown that showcases her famous curves.

The shoot was filmed on the streets of Los Angeles in May by photographer Francesco Carrozzini and styled by contributing fashion editor Rushka Bergman.
Playing on Kim Kardashian’s reputation as one of the world’s most photographed women, the story of the shoot involves her being pursued by a mob of paparazzi.

In the magazine’s accompanying interview, Kim Kardashian admitted that she does find the “lack of privacy” in her life difficult.

“Everyone is always watching me, I’m under constant observation, everywhere I go there’s a camera following me, in the gym, when I do the shopping, and if I decide to go out without make-up it makes news throughout the world,” she said.

But Kim Kardashian seemed to enjoy the artistic reconstruction of her life for the Vogue shoot, tweeting at the time that it had been “amazing” and thanking the team for their “creative genius”.

Since the Vogue edition has been published, Kim Kardashian, who is dating singer Kanye West, has cemented her fashionista status further by launching her own fashion range with her sisters for Dorthy Perkins.

Kim Kardashian and her famous sisters recently launched the Kardashian Kollection at Dorothy Perkins in London, and reportedly send the Duchess of Cambridge a load of free clothing, only to get them send straight back.

According to The Examiner, Kate Middleton politely declined to accept any of the free clothing received from Kim Kardashian.

The Kardashian Kollection features a lot of figure-hugging silhouettes, with leopard print and studs – not exactly appropriate for a member of the Royal family.

A palace insider told the magazine: “Kate is hardly going to turn up for an event with the queen in a cheap leopard-print miniskirt or gold sequined jacket.”

The source also said Kim Kardashian invited Kate Middleton over for tea, in an attempt to get a new royal best friend out of her recent trip to London. But once again, the Duchess politely declined the offer.

And another insider explained to the Daily Star earlier this week why Kim Kardashian is so keen on getting closer to Kate Middleton.

“She hoped Kate might be seen wearing one of the designs out in public, which would give their fashion credentials a huge boost,” the source explained.

And a link with the Royal family would have given them the stepping stone they wanted to be big in the UK, the insider continued: “The Kardashians want to be as big in the UK as they are in America, and think associating themselves with the Royals, especially Kate, will help them achieve that.”

Speaking in a recent interview with Now magazine, Kim Kardashian gushed about how much she love’s the Duchess’s fashions style.

“Kate seems like a really sweet person and she’s a princess. We love her sense of fashion. She could wear our looks and team it with one of her hats.”

A representative of Kate Middleton said: “In general terms, the policy of The Duke and Duchess of Cambridge is not to accept any unsolicited gifts unless the sender is known personally to His or Her Royal Highness. Any such gifts are returned to the sender with thanks and an explanation of Their Royal Highnesses’ policy.”

Kim Kardashian shared with her 16.6 million plus Twitter followers that she was being “so lazy”, which apparently seemed a great reason to post a snap of her bottom.

The 32-year-old was spending the evening with her pal Larsa Pippen of Real Housewives of Miami fame after returning to Miami following a trip to London.

Kim Kardashian posted the picture of herself and Larsa Pippen displaying their shapes along with the words: “We are being so lazy! @larsapippen & I can’t get up for dinner!”

The brunette was seen looking exhausted upon her return to Florida the evening before and it seems she hadn’t caught up on her rest before sharing the photo.

The image sees Kim Kardashian and Larsa Pippen lying on their fronts on a plush cream rug, in what appears to be a walk-in wardrobe, while admiring themselves in a full-length mirror.

There’s no doubt Kim Kardashian had every intention of highlighting her famously voluptuous figure as she sported a pair of skin-tight beige jodhpurs.

She teamed the sexy bottoms with a sheer white shirt and tied her glossy locks into a slick ponytail to complete her equestrian inspired look.

Meanwhile, Larsa Pippen sported leopard print yoga pants and a casual black top.

Two hours later, it seems the reality TV duo weren’t any closer to getting active.

Kim Kardashian posted another snap to her Twitter page – this time showing herself and Larsa Pippen pouting in front of the mirror.

As Kim Kardashian’s pal Jonathan Cheban can be seen in the background, she wrote alongside the photo: “Stop trying to photobomb @jonathancheban.”
