Kim Kardashian graduates from law program after six years of study

Express Tribune21-05-2025

Kim Kardashian has officially completed her legal studies, graduating from California's Law Office Study Program after six years of hard work.
The 44-year-old reality TV star celebrated her achievement on May 21, 2025, with a backyard graduation ceremony attended by close friends, family, and mentors.
Kardashian enrolled in the unconventional law program in 2018, which allows aspiring attorneys to apprentice with a licensed lawyer instead of attending a traditional law school. Her journey, originally intended to take four years, was extended due to the pandemic and professional commitments.
During the ceremony, Kardashian shared emotional moments on social media, writing, 'I finally graduated law school after six years!' She was supported by her children and sisters, Khloé and Kourtney Kardashian, who expressed their pride in her accomplishments. Mentors, including attorney Jessica Jackson, praised Kim's 5,184 hours of legal study while balancing motherhood and her media empire.
CNN political commentator Van Jones also delivered a speech honoring her dedication to justice reform. Kardashian previously passed the 'baby bar' exam in 2021 on her fourth attempt and took the MPRE (Multistate Professional Responsibility Exam) in March 2025, a required step before sitting for the California Bar Exam.
Despite not holding a college degree, Kardashian has been involved in criminal justice reform and has helped reduce sentences for multiple inmates. She began this legal path to follow in the footsteps of her late father, attorney Robert Kardashian Sr.
Her next milestone will be preparing for the California Bar Exam, inching closer to officially becoming a licensed attorney.

Kim Kardashian shows support for Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds amid ongoing Taylor Swift lawsuit drama

Kim Kardashian made waves on social media Sunday by showing support for her rival Taylor Swift's former confidantes, Blake Lively and Ryan Reynolds, amid ongoing tensions in their circle. Kardashian, 44, posted a heartfelt tribute on Instagram for her son Psalm's sixth birthday party, but the timing of her gesture has raised eyebrows, as Lively and Swift's friendship has been strained due to a lawsuit. The reality star, who boasts 356 million Instagram followers, shared a series of images from the Deadpool and Wolverine-themed birthday bash she threw for Psalm, complete with custom decorations and a cake featuring the two characters. Although the post was a simple celebration of her son's milestone, Kardashian's choice to publicly showcase support for Lively and Reynolds comes at a time when Swift is reportedly distancing herself from the actress due to a growing legal dispute. Sources close to Swift have revealed the singer is frustrated with Lively, particularly amid the ongoing litigation related to It Ends with Us, the movie Lively is working on with Justin Baldoni. 'Right now, if Taylor had one wish, it would be that she never met Blake,' a source told Daily Mail. Swift has reportedly come to see red flags in the friendship that caused her more stress than it was worth. Kardashian's public endorsement of Lively and Reynolds couldn't come at a more critical time. The actors, who once enjoyed a close friendship with Swift, have recently been entangled in the drama surrounding the lawsuit. Kardashian's gesture, shared with nearly 350,000 likes, was noticed by several notable figures, including her sister Khloé Kardashian, who sent a heart-filled response to the post. The underlying tensions between Swift and Kardashian date back to the infamous 2009 MTV Video Music Awards when Kanye West interrupted Swift's speech, sparking years of animosity. While the two stars briefly reconciled, the situation reignited with West's 2016 song Famous, and the public fallout between Swift and Kardashian deepened. Kardashian's tweet, calling Swift a 'snake' in 2016, only escalated the feud, which continues to simmer today.

Julión Álvarez: Mexican singer cancels concerts after US Visa revoked

Mexican singer Julión Álvarez has postponed a planned concert in Arlington, Texas, after the United States revoked his work visa and those of his band, the performer announced Friday. Álvarez revealed the development in a video posted on his Instagram account, stating that he and his team had been notified by US authorities earlier that day. The concert was scheduled for Saturday at a stadium in Arlington. Álvarez said he did not know the reason for the visa revocation but added that he and event promoter Cárdenas Marketing Network (CMN) hoped to reschedule the performance. 'Mil disculpas a todos ustedes and, if God allows, we'll stay in touch to provide more information,' Álvarez said in Spanish during the video message. In a statement, CMN said approximately 50,000 tickets had been sold for the event and confirmed they would remain valid for the new date. 'Ticket holders will receive further instructions by email in the coming days. Those unable to attend the rescheduled event will be given details on how to request a refund,' the company said. CNN, which first reported the story, contacted the US State Department and Department of Homeland Security for comment. A spokesperson for the State Department said visa records are confidential and declined to comment on the case. In 2017, Álvarez was sanctioned by the US Treasury Department over alleged links to drug trafficking networks, which he denied. He was removed from the sanctions list in 2022. Earlier this year, he performed three consecutive concerts in Los Angeles. The incident comes amid broader scrutiny of US visa policies affecting high-profile performers.

Kim Kardashian reacts to Paris robbery verdict with powerful statement

Kim Kardashian has spoken out following the guilty verdict in the 2016 armed robbery case that left her traumatized during Paris Fashion Week. On May 23, a French court convicted eight people involved in the high-profile jewel heist, while two others were acquitted or faced unrelated charges. Due to the defendants' advanced age and health issues, none will serve additional prison time. Kardashian, 44, was robbed at gunpoint in her Paris hotel room, where assailants stole $9 million in jewelry, including a 20-carat diamond ring from then-husband Kanye West. In a statement, she expressed deep gratitude to French authorities for pursuing justice. 'This crime was the most terrifying experience of my life, leaving a lasting impact on me and my family,' Kardashian said. 'While I'll never forget what happened, I believe in the power of growth and accountability and pray for healing for all.' The verdict followed a month-long trial where Kardashian bravely testified in Paris, recalling how she begged for her life. Aomar Ait Khedache, the 69-year-old ringleader, apologized in a letter read aloud during the proceedings. Another defendant, Yunice Abbas, 72, who wrote a book titled I Kidnapped Kim Kardashian, also expressed remorse. Kardashian's legal team praised her courage and reaffirmed her ongoing dedication to justice reform. The verdict came shortly after Kardashian completed her law program, continuing the legacy of her father, attorney Robert Kardashian. She now looks forward to putting the traumatic chapter behind her while advocating for victims and meaningful legal change.
