Kanye West Sympathy BUMP

As Kim Kardashian continues to grow and grow, Kanye West is now sporting a bump of his own ... on his forehead.

Kanye was spotted in Beverly Hills early this morning with the giant bruise ... a souvenir from his run-in with a street sign on Friday.

As TMZ previously reported, Kanye walked smack dab into a metal sign post while out with Kim Kardashian. After first showing some restraint with the paps over the incident, he later exploded on one guy ... who claimed he wasn't even there when Kanye hit his head.

Kanye West Walks Into a Bar ...

2:45 PM PT -- Turns out Kanye did end up going NUTS on a photog a short while after this video was taken. Check it out.

This isn't the start of a joke, Kanye West really did walk into a bar ... a street sign, to be exact ... and he was really, REEAALLLLLY MAD.

Kanye and Kim Kardashian were strolling along in Bev Hills this afternoon when Ye, who was ducking his head to avoid getting his picture taken, slammed dome-first into a metal sign post.

From the sound of it, it hurt ... a lot.

Kanye clenched his head in pain ... and seemed prime for a FULL KANYE-style ragefest on the photogs ... but instead, he composed himself and walked away.

Feel better man.

Kanye West MELTDOWN Goes Berserk on Pap After Smashing Head on Sign

So much for a cooler, calmer Kanye ...

West just emerged from a restaurant in L.A. and exploded on a photog -- not a TMZ guy -- screaming at the cameraman to stop taking photos, ASAP.

Minutes before the incident, Kanye had banged his head into a metal sign while trying to hide his face from a pack of paparazzi ... and blamed it on the snappers.

West restrained himself from going after the paps in the moments after the head-slamming, only to emerge from the eatery minutes later ... even angrier than he was before.

The pap told West he had just arrived on the scene -- and meant no harm.

West eventually turned around and went back into the restaurant. It's unclear if Kanye ever laid a hand on the photog.

Inhale, exhale ...

Khloe Kardashian & Kris Jenner TOO DRUNK For TV

Everyone has a tequila story, and Khloe Kardashian and Kris Jenner had theirs Thursday night ... with an evening that started at a Mexican restaurant and ended with them getting KICKED OUT of Kim's house ... TMZ has learned.

According to our sources, Khloe and Kris went out for a girls' night and hit up Casa Vega in the Valley for some dinner and a few margaritas (FORESHADOWING!!!!). The ladies had a good time and K&K even posted a pic of the pair wearing sombreros and captioned it "She's wild man" (see above).

We're told the pair took a car service and went straight from the restaurant to the popular West Hollywood bar The Abbey to shoot a scene for "Keeping Up With the Kardashians." The only problem ... they smartly decided they were too drunk to shoot ... so they left without even getting out of the SUV.

According to Abbey patrons, the ordeal pissed off management because they had roped off a prime section for the shoot.

But it doesn't end there ... Khloe and Kris then had the brilliant idea to go from the bar to Kim's house ... because who doesn't love partying with drunk women more than a PREGNANT CHICK?!?!?

It predictably didn't go well, and Kim told the girls to take a hike.

And thus ends the story of the greatest episode of "KUWTK" that never was.

Kim Kardashian Looks Sofa King Good!

The theme of the stylish event was punk rock ... and what's more anti-establishment than going as the kouch in your beloved Aunt Sylvia's finished basement in Van Nuys circa 1986?

This is the perfect look for a busy mom-to-be, as it sleeps two comfortably.

Kim K & Kanye PRAISED BY HOSPITAL You're Saving Sick Babies

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are bona fide HEROES ... this according to a Chicago Children's Hospital which says the money raised by the couple will be used to treat sick babies.

TMZ broke the story ... Kim and Kanye are urging friends and family members to abstain from sending baby gifts -- instead, they're asking well-wishers to send donations to the Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago.

Now, reps for the hospital are hailing the couple for the generous move -- saying, "Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago would like to extend its sincerest gratitude to Kim Kardashian and Kanye West for their thoughtfulness and support of the hospital."

The rep continues, "Funds donated on behalf of Kardashian and West will be directed to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit Fund which will help care for the most critically ill babies and their families."

"We wish them all the best in the upcoming arrival of their baby."

Kim Kardashian REFUSING BABY GIFTS Seeking Donations Instead

Kim Kardashian wants her friends to know ... SHE DOESN'T NEED YOUR BABY GIFTS ... but there's a hospital in Chicago that sure does.

Instead, the couple is asking all well-wishers to cut a check to the Lurie Children's Hospital in Chicago, where Kanye grew up.

We all know Kanye and Kim have a TON of rich friends -- hopefully, they'll actually follow directions.

Kim and Kanye Face Homelessness When Baby Is Born

Tough times have hit Kim Kardashian and Kanye West ... they may not have a roof over their heads to care for their newborn child. The stark reality is ... they may be homeless.

Here's why the couple is in dire straits ...

- Kim's $5 million Beverly Hills home has been sold, and she needs to be out by Aug. 1.

- Kanye's $3.3 million Hollywood Hills house is about to be sold -- and he's already moved out.

- Contractors have ripped apart the couple's new Bel Air estate ... the one they bought in February for $9 million ... and there's NO WAY it'll be ready in time.

So what is a young, struggling couple to do? They're considering the worst option for any couple ... the in-laws. In this case, they may stay with the Queen of F***ing Everything until renovations are completed at the new digs.

But there's one more option they're seriously considering ... renting a crib for $50k a month.

The recession has been hard on everyone.

Kate Middleton Not All Famous Preggo Chicks Have to Be HUGE

If pregnant women were capable of jealousy, one would say Kim Kardashian and Jessica Simpson might be a little covetous of Kate Middleton's physique -- 'cause they're all due around the same time, and well, one of these things is not like the other.

Kanye West 100,000 Reasons He's No Absentee Dad

Kanye West is doing everything he can to support Kim Kardashian during her pregnancy -- even though he's in Paris working -- and it's costing six figures to do it ... TMZ has learned.

Kanye has been travelling abroad the past few months -- for events, performances and to record a new album -- but is still hitting up Kim's doctor's appointments.

We're told Kanye has made at least three trips via private jet from Paris to L.A. (costing about $100k total) so that he can be in attendance for Kim on her checkups.

Our sources say Kanye even reaches out to the doctors beforehand to discuss the appointments and to make certain his schedule allows him to be there.

According to our sources, Kanye has also flown Kim out to Paris on a private jet so they could spend extra time together before Kim is set to give birth in July.

Kris Humphries Chose NBA Playoffs Over Battle with Kim

Kris Humphries -- who was once obsessed with proving to the world that Kim Kardashian was a love fraud -- now says he gave up his battle because of his love of BBall.

A rep for Kris tells TMZ, "Kris and his family are excited to move forward and are grateful for all the support they have received in this process."

The rep then sets the priorities straight: "His commitment to the Brooklyn Nets and the team's incredible fans is his number one priority and he is excited to head into the playoffs tomorrow with this situation behind him."

TMZ broke the story ... Kris settled his divorce beef with Kim and walked away with nothing -- he didn't get the annulment he sought and didn't get a penny.

Kim K/Kris H OFFICIALLY DIVORCED

Kim Kardashian is officially a single woman ... because the judge dissolved her marriage to Kris Humphries in today's court hearing ... and we've learned Kris walked away with NOTHING.

Here's what sources connected with the case tell TMZ:

-- Kris gets NO money from Kim. As we've reported ... he had previously demanded $7 mil.

-- Kris dropped his demand for an annulment based on fraud.

-- Each party will pay their own attorney's fees.

This is not just a settlement. It's a WIN for Kim and her lawyer, disso-queen Laura Wasser.

The judge sent 2 different messages -- on the one hand saying the status of the marriage was dissolved, but then said it's over when they sign the official papers. But it seems like she's officially divorced, especially since the judge said to Kim, "Congratulations on your dissolution."

One final thing. The judge was about to slap Kris with a financial penalty for being a no-show at last week's hearing, but Kim asked the court to drop it, and Kris skated.
