The Kardashians

LeBron James' world could collide with the Kardashian family ... soon ... because his mother's fiance is putting the full-court press on Kris Jenner to manage his rap career.

Producers of the Blac Chyna/Rob Kardashian reality show are teasing viewers that Chyna underwent a paternity test while she was pregnant because she doubted Rob's the dad, but it's all made up.

The tease shows Chyna demanding a paternity test and there's a shot of her with a needle in her arm ... it makes it seem like she herself is saying she was sleeping with multiple guys.

However, production sources tell us the needle is for a routine blood test ... NOT a paternity test. We're also told she has made it clear ... Rob's the only guy who could possibly be the dad.

In fact, we're told Chyna and Rob planned the pregnancy almost from the get-go. They tried for several weeks to do the deed before she actually got pregnant, despite the fact they only dated each other for a minute.

Chyna actually did tell Rob at one point he might not be the father, but did it "to get under his skin because she was pissed off at him."

Tyga juuust missed getting into a jam most guys would pay to experience -- trapped in an elevator with Kendall and Kylie Jenner -- until NY's Bravest came to their rescue.

Kylie, her sis and some friends were leaving an apartment Thursday evening, when their lift got stuck. Unclear how long they were hanging out in there, but firefighters were able to get them out safely.

Based on the you-know-what eatin' grin on Tyga's face -- who greeted them when they got out -- everyone got over it pretty quickly.

Nothing screams, "I'm good" ... like Snapchatting your way through a crisis.

Grown ass women can dream of owning one -- meanwhile, North West's already taking her Louis Vuitton for a spin around the playground.

Okay, we don't know where North really went with her high-priced purse, but Kim and Kanye's 3-year-old was flossing big time in NYC Thursday.

For those of you still dreaming ... looks like her LV retails for just under a grand.

Side note: Even her driver's got Yeezys.

Tyga's new deal with Kanye's G.O.O.D. Music isn't a favor to the Kardashians -- we're told Kanye legitimately digs his music.

Sources close to the rappers tell TMZ they've worked together on music for years, and signing Tyga was strictly a business decision. Although Kanye is clearly all-in with the family on all its ventures ... we're told the Kardashians did NOT cross the line into his music world.

As one source put it, Kanye doesn't take on ANY artist or project he doesn't believe in personally.

Plus, there's a genuine friendship between them -- we're told 'Ye and Tyga started teaming up way before Kylie was in the picture. In fact, Tyga was with Blac Chyna when they started, and that's how she and Kim became friends.

We're told Tyga's been hitting the studio a lot with Kanye lately, and will be featured on the G.O.O.D. Music album, "Cruel Winter," which is supposed to drop next year.

Tyga's gotta get his crap together -- not just for Kylie Jenner -- but for his new boss, Kanye West.

'Ye announced Wednesday night in NYC, he signed Tyga to his G.O.O.D. Music label ... and then brought him out onstage to perform with new label mate, Desiigner.

He'd been with Young Money/Cash Money since 2007, but things went south a couple years ago when he accused the label of holding him hostage.

As we've reported, the Kardashians ain't happy about Tyga's trail of financial problems -- from houses to cars to business deals -- because they feel it's embarrassing to Kylie and the whole fam.

So, is Kanye throwing his sis-in-law's bf a lifeline ... a la Kris Jenner managing her daughters?

One thing's for sure, Tyga's now secure in the fold.

#KeepYourEnemiesCloser

Kylie Jenner has a lot of nerve threatening a company that will freeze off your fat ... just because the model happens to vaguely resemble her ... so claims the company.

Dr. FatOff is indignant after reading our story over the weekend ... that Kylie is contemplating legal action against the company for deceiving prospective patients into believing she's endorsing him.

Dr. FatOff's lawyer fired off a scathing letter to Kylie's legal eagle, informing him the model is none other than the daughter of one of the company's managers ... and is nothing like Jenner.

The letter says the model, Cassandra, is primarily Latina and Indian. It goes on to say Cassandra, an aspiring model and singer, was hired for her own look and not because of some vague resemblance.

The letter tells Kylie and company to pound sand. Ed Meyer, the rep for Dr. FatOff, tells us the billboard is staying up.

Not trying to give y'all a headache ... but imagine -- if Tyga ever slipped one past the goalie with Kylie it would create some pretty kooky familial relationships ... with King Cairo and his soon-to-be sibling at the center of it all.

We banged our heads and unraveled how things might look ... hypothetically, of course. Follow the maze ... try not to get lost in translation.

- Tyga and ex, Blac Chyna, spawned King Cairo ... he'll be half brother to Rob and Chyna's unborn kid. Tyga then becomes an uncle to Cairo's new half sibling ... by virtue of Rob and Kylie's sibling relationship.

- If Tyga and Kylie popped out a kid ... that'd give Cairo another half sibling ... Tyga and Kylie's hypothetical kid would be half cousins with Rob and Blac's kid.

- Rob would be Cairo's stepdad ... and an uncle to Tyga's and Kylie's kid -- with Blac as aunt to King Cairo's half sibling.

Kourtney Kardashian made a big splash while on vacay.

We got this shot of Kourtney going all stunt woman, jumping off a yacht in Ponza, Italy ... and doing it in style too in a black one piece swimsuit.

Kylie Jenner's about to tell a fat-burning company to FREEZE ... because it's deceiving unsuspecting consumers into believing its product is the key to her curves.

The billboard surfaced in L.A. over the weekend ... displaying a Kylie wannabe on the fat-freezing ad. Although the model isn't the real McCoy, the M.O. is pretty clear -- make people believe it's her.

The fam has already launched its legal team to put the kibosh on the billboard campaign. Fact is ... they probably have a case because the model is a ringer for Kylie and that's clearly the goal.

We're guessing a few phone calls from her attorneys will do the trick.

Kim Kardashian knows a thing or two about gettin' nekkid for photo shoots ... so it's no surprise she helped Blac Chyna navigate the frigid waters.

Chyna is PAPER Mag's September cover girl ... that means buck naked, and Kim was right there to coach her through the shoot. Kim arrived with Chyna, helped her strike poses and even picked out what some might call wardrobe.

Kim and Chyna were tight the entire day ... it was apparent to all they like each other.

Everyone remembers Kim's PAPER Mag shoot in 2014 -- so she's just keeping it all in the fam.

Kylie Jenner just gave Tyga a very expensive smoke screen -- a new Bentley Bentayga.

Kylie says the $300k SUV was the reason she was at the dealer on Tuesday. She claims the story we broke -- about Tyga's Ferrari getting repo'd -- nearly blew her surprise.

Check out the video ... they took it out to Neuehouse Hollywood on Wednesday night.

KJ was super excited for the Bentley's unveiling, but Tyga was speechless. Probably still thinking about losing his sports car .. and a bit of dignity.

As for Kylie insinuating the repo was a "fake story?" LOL. We've seen the paper work.

Rob Kardashian has made an incredible turnaround in his fight against diabetes ... he's telling his family he's no longer diabetic ... TMZ has learned.

We're told Rob says he's in remission and his doctor told him he doesn't have to take medication for his type 2 diabetes.

He was hospitalized last December for his diabetes, which doctors warned could put him in a diabetic coma if he didn't maintain a healthy lifestyle.

Rob's been eating healthy and exercising regularly since he began dating Blac Chyna ... but he's not fully in the clear.

We're told doctors warned him his diabetes could come back if he falls off the wagon again.

Tyga reunited with his old pal the repo man, who made off with the rapper's Ferrari at perhaps the most embarrassing time possible ... right in front of Kylie Jenner.

We're told Tyga hopped in his fancy red sports car Tuesday with Kylie and drove to the Bentley dealership in Calabasas. Little did he know that while they were checking out new whips ... his current one was about to get swiped.

Sources on the lot tell us the repo man showed up armed with a spare key for the Ferrari, jumped in, started it up and headed down the nearest freeway.

We're told Tyga missed a couple of his lease payments, and the lessor wasn't taking any chances.

Don't worry, Kylie and Tyga got a ride home from one of his homies.

Kim, Kanye and North felt the need ... for sweets, and lots of 'em based on how much they forked out during a candy shopping spree.

The fam hit up the Dylan's Candy Bar flagship store Monday, and sources tell us they whipped out 2 Benjs for lollipops, Push Pops and Gobstoppers. They also stocked up on sour goods like Sour Skittles, Rainbow Nerds Rope, Trolli Gummy Peachie-O's and Sour Octopus.

Zero Sour Patch Kids though. Big mistake. Huge.

Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's VMA weekend included a stay in some super fancy NYC digs -- a $25 million penthouse with a rooftop pool and massive outdoor terraces.

The Wests are roughing it in this 5 bedroom, 6 bath penthouse in Chelsea. The palatial pad is 7,200 sq feet, but 4,400 of that is outdoor space. There's even a lawn with amazing Hudson River views.

Normal rate for this kinda luxury is $10k/night. We're told Kanye and Kim will be staying here, courtesy of Airbnb, for the next couple of months.

Check out the amazing pics all around the place ... commence daydreaming.

Looks like Kim is already feeling her east coast digs, posting a vid from a verrry cozy looking bed.
