Kris Jenner dons black velvet dress to celebrate her 67th birthday with toyboy Corey Gamble in NYC

The Kardashians producer-star Kris Jenner flashed her bustier beneath a black velvet wrap-dress while celebrating her 67th birthday with toyboy Corey Gamble in Manhattan on Saturday night.

The twice-divorced grandmother-of-12’s constant companion – rocking an all-black suit sans necktie – will celebrate his own 42nd birthday next Thursday.

Back in 2016, Page Six reported that Kris (born Kristen Houghton) actually pays Corey a ‘special stipend,’ and he shares her $20M 16K-square-foot Hidden Hills mega-mansion.

Birthday girl! The Kardashians producer-star Kris Jenner flashed her bustier beneath a black velvet wrap-dress while celebrating her 67th birthday with toyboy Corey Gamble in Manhattan on Saturday night

Jenner – who never wants to remarry – reportedly met Gamble in August 2014 while attending Riccardo Tisci’s 40th birthday bash in Ibiza hosted by her former son-in-law Kanye West.

Just one month later, the Calabasas socialite decided to file for divorce from two-time Olympic gold medalist Caitlyn Jenner after 22 years of marriage.

‘Happy birthday to the best mom I’ve ever met,’ the Atlanta native gushed to his 1.5M Instagram followers.

‘[You’re] the definition of that title. You’re a force of love! I love [you] much my lady. I’ve told [you] so much today in real life that I guess there’s no need to write a paragraph here. Haaa!’

Jimmy Smith Reacts To Outrage From Corey Graves’ Comments

Jimmy Smith isn’t quite so sure why one of his WWE colleagues receives so much flack.

Before the 5/16 episode of Monday Night Raw was set to air, WWE Women’s Tag Team Champions Sasha Banks and Naomi walked out of the arena due to a reported issue with their creative for the show.

During the Raw and SmackDown episodes following Banks and Naomi’s exit, which resulted in an indefinite suspension, commentators Michael Cole and Corey Graves both proclaimed that Banks and Naomi ‘disappointed millions’ due to their ‘unprofessional’ conduct.

The comments from Cole and Graves didn’t sit well with the WWE universe, leading to severe backlash for Graves online, something that Graves’ on-air partner Jimmy Smith didn’t quite understand. Smith decided to address the topic on his Unlocking The Cage with Jimmy Smith Podcast, and says that Graves is simply the on-air mouthpiece during his job and says whatever is fed to him.

“Michael Cole and Corey Graves aren’t making this stuff up,” Smith noted. “People are getting mad at them like they’re freestyling stuff, they’re not. They’re broadcasters, if Vince [McMahon] had said, ‘Here, read this,’ I would’ve done exactly what Michael Cole did. Vince could’ve said, ‘Hey, Jimmy, I want you to read that,’ and I would’ve went, ‘Ah, okay! Sasha Banks and Naomi let us all down.’ I would’ve read the same thing.

“It’s this weird thing where like, in my sense, on Monday Night Raw, Corey Graves is getting all this sh*t. Corey Graves didn’t make up that statement, he’s a broadcaster and he was told to read it and he read it. So, I understand maybe the ire of the fans but the misdirection of that ire is weird. People getting upset at me or Corey Graves, you’re just getting mad at the wrong people. I don’t get that. Graves was told to say what he said and he said it.”

Before signing with WWE in May 2021, Smith was a professional MMA fighter, compiling a 5-1 record before retiring in 2006 after a three-year career to accept a role to host the Discovery Channel’s Fight Quest program. He stayed there for two seasons before getting an MMA play-by-play gig with M-1 Global.

Smith would then become the host of American Ninja Warrior before transitioning back to the MMA world and becoming the voice of Bellator MMA. The 44-year-old departed with Bellator after a seven-year stint with the company and signed with the UFC, but would leave after just one year with the Las Vegas-based promotion and would end his MMA commentating career with the all-women’s Invicta FC promotion before signing with WWE.

Corey Gamble Becomes Star Witness at Kardashian-Jenner Trial

Corey Gamble became the star witness for his girlfriend Kris Jenner and three of her daughters Tuesday when he testified in a Los Angeles courtroom that he personally witnessed Blac Chyna “punching” Rob Kardashian during a pivotal fight at the center of Chyna’s defamation claims against the world-famous women.

The testimony was critical because Chyna, 33, claims she never physically harmed Rob Kardashian, her former fiancé and father of her daughter Dream, during the blowout fight that caused her to move out from under the same roof as the only Kardashian brother.

Chyna, a model and influencer who starred with Rob in one season of the E! reality show Rob & Chyna in 2016, admits she damaged a gingerbread house, a door and a TV after Rob allegedly stole her phone the morning of the Dec. 15, 2016 fight, but she claims Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian and Kylie Jenner illegally defamed her and destroyed her TV career when they used the fight to portray her as physically abusive to E! executives.

Called before jurors Tuesday by Kardashian-Jenner lawyer Michael Rhodes, Gamble, 41, gave the first third-party, eyewitness testimony of the critical fight, and his version was dramatically different from what Chyna portrayed during her turn on the witness stand last week.

Gamble said it was shortly before “daybreak” on Dec. 15, 2016, when Kris received an emergency phone call from Rob’s number that woke the couple in their bed. He said Kris put the call on speaker phone, and claimed he could hear Chyna “screaming” obscenities at Rob, including the line, “I’m gonna kill you, you fat motherfucker.”

Gamble testified that he jumped out of bed, got dressed and refused to let Kris accompany him to the nearby house belonging to Kylie Jenner where Rob and Chyna had been living with their newborn daughter.

“Did Mrs. Jenner want to go?” Rhodes asked.

“She wanted to, but I told her ‘no’ because I felt like it would be dangerous for her, and I just don’t want anything to ever happen to her,” Gamble testified as Kris watched from the front row of the courtroom gallery with Kim and Khloé seated beside her.

Gamble said it only took him about two minutes to speed over to Kylie’s house. When he arrived, he claimed to see Chyna standing about eight feet away from Rob with some type of “rod” in her hand that she quickly dropped when she noticed his arrival, he said. According to Gamble, Chyna, whose legal name is Angela White, then picked up some type of phone cord and threw it at Rob as she also rushed at him trying to hit him.

“By the time she got to him, she started hitting him. I was able to get in the middle of them two. I even got hit two or three times. And I was able to get him away, them two separated. And I told him to get his keys and his wallet and get the hell out of there,” Gamble told the jury.

“So she hit you?” Rhodes asked.

“Well, she was hitting at Rob, but I got in the middle so I just took a couple of hits,” Gamble testified.

“You saw that with your own two eyes?” Rhodes asked.

“Yes,” Gamble replied, sitting in the witness box wearing a black suit over a black dress shirt.

“And that’s your testimony under penalty of perjury, that you saw Ms. White that morning trying to and hitting Rob?” Rhodes asked.

“Yes,” Gamble replied, adding that when he noticed his car had blocked Rob’s in the driveway, he knew he had to be quick about moving it so Rob could “get to safety.”

“By time I got to my car to move it, she had already jumped back on him and started punching him in the back, and the back of his head, and the side of his head. She was just hitting him, and I was just trying to get back,” Gamble testified as several jurors scribbled in their court-supplied notebooks.

He said as soon as he jumped out of his car and Rob prepared to back out, Chyna “threw a chair” at Rob’s car. “It hit the front side of his car, and then she tried to grab a little table, and I grabbed that out of her hands and Rob was already slowly backing out of driveway to leave,” he testified.

“And you saw that with your own two eyes?” Rhodes asked.

“Yes,” Gamble replied.

Gamble is due back on the witness stand Wednesday. His testimony followed after Kim and Khloé Kardashian testified earlier in the day that they did not intentionally interfere with Chyna’s contract on Rob & Chyna and were not the reason E! ultimately decided not to run a second season of Rob & Chyna, as Chyna claims in her lawsuit.

Kanye West hits out at mother-in-law Kris Jenner’s ‘Godless’ partner Corey Gamble on Instagram

Kanye West has hit out on social media at his mother-in-law Kris Jenner’s partner, Corey Gamble.

The rapper has attracted criticism for his activity on Instagram in recent weeks after sharing numerous posts about his estranged wife Kim Kardashian, and her new boyfriend, the comedian Pete Davidson.

On Saturday (19 February), West, who legally changed his name to Ye last year, shared a post about Gamble, in which he described the business executive and talent manager as “Godless” and “not a great person”.

“God has a plan to remove the Godless Corey needed to never be here anyway,” he wrote. “And I think he’s a nice person Not a great person A nice person who used to be around Puff’s family then got around Justin Bieber and then when Kris got divorced he slid in.”

“He became the tv version of a father figure and as he always called hisself ‘a REAL n****’ He once told my wife he knew what music she should be listening to So when I seen him a week later I had him removed from my daughters birthday party,” West claimed.

The Donda artist also claimed that Gamble had “got my wife linked with the liberals in a big way”, and said “for some reason” he thought Gamble had worked for DuPont chemical company “or some organisation in that pedigree”.

West concluded his post by praising Jenner, describing her as a “hero” and writing: “I love Kris.

“This woman is a hero and she’s done what she’s had to do to protect her family and make sure they prosper even if it meant telling everyone not to listen to me I respect her grind her hustle and her mind Kris is one of the best to ever do it.”

The Independent has contacted Gamble’s representative for comment.

Kanye West calls Kris Jenner ‘a hero’ while slamming her ‘godless’ boyfriend Corey Gamble

Kanye West posted a lengthy Instagram message this weekend calling Kris Jenner ‘a hero’ while lambasting her longtime beau Corey Gamble.

The 44-year-old rapper is in the process of divorcing Kris’ daughter Kim Kardashian and has been feuding with her in public over the course of the past few weeks.

In a post this Saturday morning, Kanye cryptically wrote that Corey was ‘off on his next mission’ and referred to him as ‘godless.’

Unfiltered: Kanye West posted a lengthy Instagram message this weekend calling Kris Jenner ‘a hero’ while lambasting her longtime beau Corey Gamble

‘I love Kris’: In a post this Saturday morning, Kanye cryptically wrote that Corey was ‘off on his next mission’ and referred to him as ‘godless’

During a series of public tirades two years ago near the end of his marriage, Kanye infamously attacked his mother-in-law as ‘Kris Jong Un’ – but by this weekend he took a much more respectful tone toward her.

However he was less kind to Corey, who at 41 years old is the same age as Kim and a whopping 25 years younger than Kris.

‘God has a plan to remove the Godless Corey needed to never be here anyway,’ the Power rapper wrote. ‘And I think he’s a nice person Not a great person A nice person who used to be around Puff’s family then got around Justin Bieber and then when Kris got divorced he slid in.’

Kanye alleged that Corey ‘became the tv version of a father figure and as he always called hisself “a REAL n****.” He once told my wife he knew what music she should be listening to So when I seen him a week later I had him removed from my daughters birthday party.’

The way they were: The 44-year-old rapper is in the process of divorcing Kris’ daughter Kim Kardashian; they are pictured in February 2020 at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party

The Jesus Is King impresario added of Corey: ‘We still never met his family,’ adding: ‘And I guess we never will.’

Kanye, who supported Donald Trump before running against him for the presidency in 2020, wrote that Corey ‘got my wife linked with the liberals in a deep way.’

He claimed: ‘That was his Job For some reason I always felt he worked for DuPont or some organization in that pedigree.’

Kanye then wrote that Corey is now ‘off to his next mission,’ as ‘His job is done,’ and ‘He’s not messy enough to do something like this.’

Couple: Kris and Corey are pictured attending The Fashion Awards at the Royal Albert Hall in London together this past November

Wow: Kanye posted screen-grabs of texts apparently from Darkchild aka Rodney Jerkins, saying: ‘I’m glad Kris woke up! God is removing the evil blockers to bring restoration’

He concluded his message. ‘It’s on purpose I love Kris This woman is a hero and she’s done what she’s had to do to protect her family and make sure they prosper even if it meant telling everyone not to listen to me I respect her grind her hustle and her mind Kris is one of the best to ever do it.’

A few hours later Kanye posted screen-grabs of texts apparently from Darkchild aka Rodney Jerkins, sensationally alleging that Corey once ‘Stole all my MPC zips to give to some lil producer dude he was managing back in the day! I’m glad Kris woke up! God is removing the evil blockers to bring restoration.’

Kim filed for divorce in February of last year after months of rumors that her marriage to Kanye was on the brink of collapse.

In 2020 while campaigning for President Of The United States Kanye tearfully revealed during a rally that he and Kim considered aborting their daughter North.

He fired off a series of furious Twitter tirades accusing his wife of adultery and referring to her mother Kris Jenner as ‘Kris Jong Un.’

In response Kim, who was rumored to be livid about the abortion disclosure, posted a statement about Kanye’s struggles with bipolar disorder and pointed out ‘that the family is powerless unless the member is a minor.’

Kanye now could be facing legal trouble following last month’s incident where he was accused of pushing and punching a fan seeking an autograph.

Los Angeles law enforcement have nearly completed their investigation into the case and will be forwarding it to the L.A. City Attorney’s Office, who will then decide whether to file criminal charges against the 44-year-old rapper, per TMZ.

Though West was not interviewed by the police — allegedly due to his busy schedule — sources believe that paparazzi video of the incident and witness statements could provide enough evidence for a criminal charge. 

Meanwhile, the controversial musician was back to posting on his Instagram Friday night.

He shared a numerical rundown of his $2million income since launching a $200 Stem Player where his new album Donda 2 will be exclusively available.

West then shared a list of all the people he has alleged ‘beefs’ with, including Taylor Swift, his ex-wife Kim Kardashian, and most shockingly, American abolitionist Harriet Tubman, among many others.

Ye also shared a black and white photo of himself, writing, ‘There are two kinds of people People on my team or losers.’ 

Back to posting: Ye, 44, shared a black and white photo of himself to Instagram, writing, ‘There are two kinds of people People on my team or losers’

The list, which was originally shared by Hip Hop By The Numbers, was not accurate according to Ye, who declared in the caption that it should be longer.

‘Come on guys… This list is twice as long,’ he wrote, adding more names that included, music streaming platforms Apple and Spotify, chief executive officer of Universal Music Group Lucian Grainge, as well as Hillary Clinton.

The Donda hitmaker also couldn’t resist taking a swipe at Kim’s new boyfriend, SNL comedian Pete Davidson, whom he has nicknamed Skete.

‘And of course Skete and any and all corny sh** in general,’ he stated, adding, ‘Can somebody from Chicago let these people know what Skete meant when we was growing up. It’s up for everybody!!!!!’

Kim filed for divorce from Kanye in February 2021 and has since requested a judge to declare her single as West has fought back against the divorce, both in court and on social media. The couple has four children. 

New ventures: He also posted a number rundown that showed he made over $2million since launching a $200 Stem Player where his new album Donda 2 will be exclusively available

Kanye West posts & deletes shocking claim that Kris Jenner’s boyfriend Corey Gamble ‘CHEATED’ with woman at a nightclub

KANYE West posted and then deleted a head-turning claim that Kris Jenner’s boyfriend Corey Gamble “cheated” with a woman at a nightclub.

The rapper’s latest social media post comes as he continues to shock fans with stunning rants.

It all kicked off when the 44-year-old took to his Instagram and posted a screenshot from an unauthorized video of a man he alleged to be Corey kissing another woman at a Miami nightclub.

“We outside DONDA 2 2 22 22,” he simply captioned it referring to his live performance scheduled to take place in Miami in the last week of the month.

However, as most of Kanye’s latest posts, he would quickly delete the screenshot from his platform.

A rep for Corey did not respond to The Sun’s request to comment.

Corey had previously showed his support for Khloe Kardashian’s cheating ex Tristan Thompson by showing off the NBA star’s jersey just after Maralee Nichols gave birth to their love child – a decision he was quickly slammed for.

Kanye also hasn’t exactly seen eye-to-eye with Kris, 66, in the past as back in the summer of 2020 he labeled the momager as “Kris Jong-un” on Twitter and even accused her of “white supremacy” during one of his now infamous rants.

All seemed to be worked out, however, when Kanye, Kris, and Corey, 40, were spotted heading to Saturday Night Live in October 2021 to see Kim Kardashian host the famous sketch comedy show.

Fast-forward to 2022 and the hitmaker is back to dropping jaws, but this time he has mostly set his sights on his ex Kim’s boyfriend Pete Davidson.

KANYE GOES AFTER PETE

Not only has Kanye called Pete a “d**khead,” but he insisted the comedian will “never” meet any of the four kids he shares with his ex-wife.

Kanye, who has been referring to Pete as “Skete,” even claimed the funnyman is the reason he hasn’t been able to reunite with his baby mama.

The dad of four also leaked a series of texts allegedly from Kim as he shared a post regarding her boyfriend.

The message asked the entertainer to cool it with his “threats” against Pete as he was creating a “dangerous and scary environment.”

‘KIM IS REALLY UPSET’

Amid Kanye’s rants the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum is even said to have sent a member of her team to speak to Kanye in person regarding the texts.

An insider exclusively shared with The Sun: “Kim is really upset about Kanye’s social media rants and how he’s posting everything she sends him.

“Kim has tried to ignore Kanye’s latest attacks, but it’s impossible. After his stunt with the Valentine’s Day roses, she reached out begging him to stop, saying ‘if he loves her as he says, why is he acting like this and causing her pain’?”

MORE DRAMA

The 41-year-old filed for divorce from Kanye back in February 2021 but he has since “objected” to her filing out of concerns that she may move some of their assets to her separate accounts if she decides to remarry.

Kanye had previously taken “accountability” for “harassing” Kim, saying he is “still learning in real time.”

But soon after Kanye was back to attacking Pete claiming the stand-up comic made fun of him and his mental health in a 2018 SNL sketch.

MLB rumors: Live updates from free-agent frenzy as Javier Báez, Corey Seager, Max Scherzer find new homes

The Major League Baseball hot stove is heating up ahead of an impending work stoppage. The current Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) expires Wednesday night, and free-agent activity will be halted until the players’ union and the league can come to a new agreement — a process that could take months. 

Many players and teams are getting deals in place before the lockout, and it’s led to a free-agent frenzy in the last two days. As of Tuesday morning, six of our top 10 free agents have signed:

  1. SS Carlos Correa
  2. SS Corey Seager: 10 years, $325 million with Rangers
  3. 3B/OF Kris Bryant
  4. IF Marcus Semien: 7 years, $175 million with Rangers
  5. 1B Freddie Freeman
  6. LHP Robbie Ray: 5 years, $115 million with Mariners
  7. RHP Max Scherzer: 3 years, $130 million with Mets
  8. RHP Kevin Gausman: 5 years, $110 million with Blue Jays
  9. RHP Marcus Stroman
  10. OF Starling Marte: 4 years, $78 million with Mets

The Rangers and Mets have been the most active teams in free agency and it’s not particularly close either. In addition to Seager and Semien, Texas also signed righty John Gray and outfielder Kole Calhoun. The Mets signed infielder Eduardo Escobar and outfield Mark Canha in addition to Scherzer and Marte. The two clubs have committed over $800 million to free agents. 

Although free agency has been very active the last few days, the trade market has mostly gone cold, at least for the time being. The Pirates sent catcher Jacob Stallings to the Marlins for three players on Tuesday, and that’s about it as far as notable trades go. My guess is teams will focus on free agency before the CBA expires, and worry about trades later.

For what it’s worth, Tuesday will serve as a “soft” deadline for free agent signings because teams and players will need time to work out the contract details and review medical information prior to the CBA’s expiration. The two sides can’t agree to a deal at the last minute and put pen to paper. Here’s a look at the notable free agent deals to happen since Sunday night.

Notable hot stove deals

  • Corey Seager and the Rangers have agreed to a 10-year, $325 million pact (full story here). 
  • Max Scherzer and the Mets have finalized a three-year, $130 million deal (full story here).
  • Robbie Ray agreed to a five-year, $115 million deal with the Mariners (full story here).
  • The Marlins acquired catcher Jacob Stallings in a four-player deal with the Pirates, the teams announced.
  • Marcus Semien agreed to a seven-year, $175 million deal with the Rangers (full story here). 
  • Javier Báez agreed to a six-year, $140 million contract with the Tigers (full story here).
  • The Marlins and Avisaíl García agreed to a four-year, $53 million deal (full story here). 
  • Kevin Gausman and the Blue Jays agreed to a five-year, $110 million deal (full story here). 
  • Jon Gray and the Rangers agreed to a four-year, $56 million deal (full story here).
  • Corey Kluber signed a one-year deal with the Rays after spending 2021 with the Yankees (full story here).
  • Reliever Kirby Yates signed a two-year, $8.25 million deal with the Braves, the team announced.
  • Reliever Daniel Hudson is nearing a one-year, $7 million deal with the Dodgers, per ESPN’s Jeff Passan.

MLB rumors: Live updates from free-agent frenzy as Javier Báez, Corey Seager, Max Scherzer find new homes

The Major League Baseball hot stove is heating up ahead of an impending work stoppage. The current Collective Bargaining Agreement (CBA) expires Wednesday night, and free-agent activity will be halted until the players’ union and the league can come to a new agreement — a process that could take months. 

Many players and teams are getting deals in place before the lockout, and it’s led to a free-agent frenzy in the last two days. As of Tuesday morning, six of our top 10 free agents have signed:

  1. SS Carlos Correa
  2. SS Corey Seager: 10 years, $325 million with Rangers
  3. 3B/OF Kris Bryant
  4. IF Marcus Semien: 7 years, $175 million with Rangers
  5. 1B Freddie Freeman
  6. LHP Robbie Ray: 5 years, $115 million with Mariners
  7. RHP Max Scherzer: 3 years, $130 million with Mets
  8. RHP Kevin Gausman: 5 years, $110 million with Blue Jays
  9. RHP Marcus Stroman
  10. OF Starling Marte: 4 years, $78 million with Mets

The Rangers and Mets have been the most active teams in free agency and it’s not particularly close either. In addition to Seager and Semien, Texas also signed righty John Gray and outfielder Kole Calhoun. The Mets signed infielder Eduardo Escobar and outfield Mark Canha in addition to Scherzer and Marte. The two clubs have committed over $800 million to free agents. 

Although free agency has been very active the last few days, the trade market has mostly gone cold, at least for the time being. The Pirates sent catcher Jacob Stallings to the Marlins for three players on Tuesday, and that’s about it as far as notable trades go. My guess is teams will focus on free agency before the CBA expires, and worry about trades later.

For what it’s worth, Tuesday will serve as a “soft” deadline for free agent signings because teams and players will need time to work out the contract details and review medical information prior to the CBA’s expiration. The two sides can’t agree to a deal at the last minute and put pen to paper. Here’s a look at the notable free agent deals to happen since Sunday night.
