AceShowbiz - Nothing was forced when it comes to Kim Kardashian's "Saturday Night Live" stint. Despite Kanye West's claim, a source of the NBC show denies that Kim was forced to make jokes about her and the rapper's divorce.
According to TMZ, the former "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star was happy about the jokes. It was also said that Kim's monologue for "SNL" was written ahead of time and it included the line about their divorce.
The informant also noted the SKIMS founder didn't make much changes about the monologue. The divorce jokes were also something that Kim and her comedian pals wrote and wanted to be included in the monologue. Kim was previously reported to have enlisted help from some comedian icons, including Dave Chappelle, Ellen DeGeneres, Amy Schumer and James Corden.
Kanye weighed in on Kim's "SNL" hosting during his recent appearance on "Drink Champs". "[It's] no joke to me. My kids want their parents to stay together. I want their parents - I want us to be together," the father of four told N.O.R.E. (Noreaga) and DJ EFN. " 'SNL' making my wife say 'I divorced him' on TV because they just wanted to get that bar off, and I have never seen the papers. We're not even divorced."
While the Yeezy designer insisted that he had never seen the divorce papers, the source said it was "BS," adding that the hip-hop star was "fully apprised of what's happening." The news outlet also noted that the divorce is moving forward, full steam with him signing off on Kim buying their family home from him for $23 million.
Amid their alleged divorce, Kim was rumored to be dating Pete Davidson. Kanye reportedly wasn't happy with his estranged wife hanging out with the comedian. However, the rapper apparently has a fling of his own as he was seen spending some times with 22-year-old model Vinetria.
