OK! Magazine’s Fake Story About Kourtney Kardashian Expecting Baby Number 3
August 1, 2013 by Hollywoodite
Another week, another untrue story on the cover of a tabloid it’s amazing gets read at the point of sale. Skimming this cover while waiting for a price check on tinned peaches is one thing; actually paying the sticker price and believing anything it says is quite another.
This week, OK! Magazine is pointing to a woman who’s had two kids, Kourtney Kardashian, who dares not inhale round the clock and says “pregnant!” That anyone can confirm, no, she’s not pregnant. And if she were, it’s unlikely at this point something as low-rent as OK! would get the exclusive.
For what it’s worth, the cover says “(It’s a bump) EXCLUSIVE Kourtney, ‘Yes, I’m pregnant.’ Move over, little North West, another Kardashian baby is already on the way.” Nope. Still not pregnant.
Here’s a teaser from the Jezebel tabloid roundup: Move, over North West. The new “royal Kardashian baby du jour” is the rumored fetus growing inside of Kourtney. Empirical evidence: although Kourtney literally never said “yes, I’m pregnant,” she might as well have, because she sports a lil’ bump, a mysterious glow, and no one has seen her consume an alcoholic beverage or an uncooked sushi roll in days. Also, the mag seriously called the birth of baby North West “her debut.”
