Kim Kardashian and Kanye West Dating in Her Next Curtsy for the Spotlight

If your popularity and claim to fame depends on shock tactics and gossip news, it only makes sense to fake a 72-day marriage. And now it’s on to the next thing: Kim Kardashian and Kanye West are a couple.

“Kim and Kanye have now just started dating,” a source informed People magazine, clarifying that it was “light” and they were “seeing where it goes.”

The word was established straight from the horse’s mouth in the lyrics of Kanye’s single, “Theraflu”:

Only Nigger I got respect for is Wiz

And I’ll admit, I fell in love with Kim

Around the time she had fell in love with him

Well that’s cool, baby girl, do ya thang

Lucky I ain’t had Jay drop him from the team

So go the timeless lyrics. Nor does it come out of the blue. They’ve been friends for years. “We’ve been friends for years,” Kardashian told Ryan Secrets during a radio interview, “We just support each other. That’s what friends do.”

What’s more, West’s ex, Amber Rose, blamed their 2010 break up on Kardashian, though Kim was wed to NBA player Kris Humphries at that moment. Surely, Kardashian was focused only on making her marriage work, so the story has been put into a skeptical light. Whatever the case, they’re dating now.
