This week’s Life & Style Mag features some push-back from Team Kat-Face on the whole divorce scandal. I think the new pro-Kat-Face talking point is “Kim left Kris for good reasons, because he’s a big jerk!” It seems that Kris Humphries is a homophobic asshat and he’s super-worried about how Kourtney & Kim Take New York is going to portray his character. Oh, and Kris might be suing Kim and E!? Interesting…
Kim Kardashian is about to be dealt another blow. Insiders reveal exclusively to Life & Style—on newsstands now—that Kim’s estranged husband Kris Humphries has met with a legal team and is preparing to sue for $10 million.
“Kris has a legal team investigating his options,” the insider tells the new issue of Life & Style. “He’s claiming his role on Kourtney & Kim Take New York is bigger than he was told, and that’s why he wants more money. But Kris is also suing because he’s really worried about how badly he’s going to be portrayed on the series.”
Life & Style has learned that Kris is particularly concerned about explosive footage of him bullying Kim’s best friend Jonathan Cheban — scenes that stand to tarnish Kris’ wholesome Midwestern image.
“Midway through the season, Kris starts bullying Kim’s best friend, Jonathan Cheban, about his sexuality,” shares a Kim pal. “Jonathan isn’t gay, but Kris accuses him of being gay and criticizes him for it in a really homophobic way. Jonathan is really upset.”
As is Kim. “Kris used the word ‘gay’ as an insult, to try and hurt Jonathan,” an E! insider tells Life & Style. “He’s the lowest of the low bullying someone like this.”
While it’s too late for him to stop the premiere from airing, Kris has retained lawyer Lee Hutton III and is trying his hardest to prevent the most inflammatory moments from being broadcast. Kris, his family and his friends maintain that much of Kris’ appearance on Kourtney & Kim was scripted — including scenes in which he ponders Jonathan’s sexuality — and that he’s not homophobic.
“Little did Kris know that he was being set up,” his father, William Humphries, tells Life & Style exclusively. “Kris got used —100 percent used.”

Thoughts on whether Kris was “used”? He was just hired for an ad campaign for Sector Watches – a reported $150,000 paycheck. And Kris and his publicist have been dropping “sightings” of Kris into nearly every publication, noting over and over that Kris is so, so SAD. Whatever – I think Kris is as big of a fraud as Kim, and I don’t really have any sympathy for either of them. And I also find it hard to believe that Kris was given a “script” in which he simply HAD to say homophobic things to Kim’s friend.
Oh, and Radar reports that Kim’s Christmas cards – which were ordered right before her honeymoon – feature a wedding photo of Kim and Kris. Guess she’s going to have to buy her Christmas cards from CVS this year.
