AceShowbiz - Kim Kardashian can be petty sometimes, according to Melyssa Ford. In the latest episode of "I'm Here for the Food", Melyssa Ford talked with guest Rev. Marcia Dyson about their humanitarian trip in Haiti, which occurred about a year and a half after a 7.0 magnitude earthquake hit the country in 2010. During the trip, Kris Jenner and Kim joined it though Melyssa questioned their motives.
"This was right after [Kim's] 72-minute--day, whatever--marriage to Kris Humphries. She had been getting a lot of bad press because of it, and so suddenly, her and Kris Jenner were on this humanitarian mission to Haiti," Melyssa said. "I was skeptical that--and in keep in mind this isn't the woman that we know today, who is a major champion for prison reform ... [but] I was skeptical that the purpose of the trip was rooted in altruism."
Marcia initially asked Melyssa to give the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" stars a chance, until Kris approached her to tell Marcia her problem. "Kris Jenner rolls up on me like, 'Psst, Marcia,' and I’m like, hey, I get a chance to talk to Kris Jenner," Marcia recalled.
"[Kris says] 'I have a problem.' I'm thinking, what problem could you have? The accommodations are beautiful. The water we have is clean," she continued. "She says, 'Well, Kim is feeling uncomfortable with [points to Ford]' because something that somebody said on social media at the time, and Kim wants to go home if my girl [Melyssa] does not leave. And that's not happening."
"Melyssa is my daughter and we were in a mentoring relationship at the time, suturing this deep relationship. And I said, 'Well, you know, I can't stop Kim from going home. I think this would be a good experience for her if she is indeed wanting to find something purposeful to do in life like the other women.' It made me have this decision, do I split my baby up?" she added.
Marcia refused to send Melyssa home or relocate her to a different hotel. However, she decided to make "a special itinerary" so that Melyssa would not have to interact with Kim or Kris.
Melyssa continued to blast the TV stars. Of the "social media" thing that Kris told Marcia, Melyssa said, "It was a f***ing lie. There was nothing on social media."
"I didn't bother with the girl. I didn't have anything to do with her," Ford said. "One thing, anybody--you can go back in all my social media, I do not talk about people. ... It was beyond petty. You're worried about your girl, meanwhile there's six orphanages of children here and we're designing a fantasy land for them to experience one day of joy. And you're worried about her being uncomfortable with me?"
Apparently, the reason behind the pettiness was because Kim and Melyssa used to date Reggie Bush. "She was upset that we dated the same guy," Melyssa explained. "And listen, what's ridiculous is I dumped him and they dated way later! I was just like, really? Is this really about him? He is nothing to write home about, and we don't even need to talk about who he is because he is now married and what not so it doesn't even matter."
"I'm just like, that's what the issue really is. It's really insecurity, but I'm not worried about you! I'm here for the kids," sh went on saying. "I'm here because my momma introduced me to these fabulous people and this is a like-minded project that we all are invested in. You're here for some shady ass reasons."
