Yep, that's Kim Kardashian hiding her face while being phone papped beside Beyonce. Indeed it should be the other way around. But they're, like, best friends 'n junk now.
OK, not exactly bessie mates, but you know the drill - you'll endure your partner's best friend's partner cause you don't want to appear overtly petty. But, really, you'd probably prefer to pull out your own eyelashes and replace them with your nose hairs before spending a prolonged time in their presence.
It had been rumoured that Beyonce - famous for singing, acting, being friends with fellow A-listings Gwynnie and Chris - found Kim to be an inferior, what with her being famous for being friends with Paris Hilton, before getting urinated on in a sex tape by Whitney Houston's toy boy, then getting her own reality TV show thanks to an exceedingly pushy mother.
Anyhoo, Kanye had enough of this, so he set up an intimate dinner date for the two ladies in their hotel suite over the weekend while he was performing with Jay-Z in Birmingham on Friday. Here's where the Daily Mail take over:
"Kim, 31, and Beyoncé, 30, were pictured by fans in the crowd watching the performance from VIP seats in the arena. They were then escorted down into the mosh pit by huge bodyguards to let loose on the dance floor. Beyoncé, casual in a white T-shirt and leather trousers, was seen getting into the music. But it is unknown how Kim fared - she has admitted that she hates dancing in public before, and famously was ordered off stage by Prince when she refused to dance at his concert in LA last year... According to reports, the ladies dined together before attending the show at the LG Arena, at a meal arranged by Kanye. A source told The Sun newspaper: 'The girls have never really seen eye-to-eye. It’s a shame because Jay-Z and Kanye are so close. Beyonce has always viewed Kim as a reality TV star who’s not earned her fortune with a specific talent'." Apart from the obvious. And Beyonce has one of them herself.
The "source" continued: "Kanye arranged a dinner in the hotel suite for the girls to clear the air. He’s hoping that now they’re pals it will lead to further get-togethers away from the tour. Beyonce has now welcomed Kim into the clan."
I'm assuming Jay-Z offered Beyonce some kind of diamond encrusted something or other to win her round. Or maybe Kim's just really genuine. Diamond encrusted jobby seems more believable.
