Khloe Kardashian admits she looked like a ‘cartoon' after filter obsession
'I wouldn't dare post a photo without heavily Photoshopping,' she confessed. 'And in hindsight, when I look back at those photos, it's humiliating that I thought that was even a version of myself.'
Khloé revealed that this extreme editing led to what she called 'filler blindness,' a phenomenon where repeated image alteration distorts one's sense of reality. Surrounded by people who routinely filtered their photos, she began believing that the edited version was her real self. 'If I got paparazzied, I'd be like, 'I don't look like that. I look like this photo,'' she said. 'I really had to reprogram my mind.'
She admitted to using Botox and fillers in the past but has since scaled back dramatically. 'I don't love fillers anymore,' she said, explaining she now only uses them to correct an indentation on her face where a tumour was removed.
Instead of relying on filters, Khloé now prefers to take hundreds of unedited photos until she finds one, she genuinely likes. 'I don't have to Photoshop every photo anymore,' she said. 'I want to see myself for who I am.'
The star hopes to inspire fans to embrace authenticity in an industry still obsessed with perfection. Her candidness marks a notable shift from a time when flawless online images were the norm.

Rob Kardashian opens up about avoiding public life and reality TV
Rob Kardashian has shared the personal reason he chooses to stay out of the spotlight, explaining that his absence from reality TV and public appearances is rooted in his struggle with self-image and comfort. The 38-year-old Kardashian, who shares his eight-year-old daughter Dream with ex-fiancée Blac Chyna, made a rare public statement on his sister Khloé Kardashian's podcast, Khloé in Wonder Land. During the episode, the siblings discussed persistent rumors about their relationship and living situation. Rob, who was once a regular on Keeping Up With the Kardashians and briefly starred in Rob & Chyna, clarified that there's no rift between him and his family. Instead, he said his decision to remain off-camera is entirely personal. 'There's definitely nothing wrong between any of us,' Rob told Khloé. 'It just had everything to do with myself. I don't want to be filming and putting myself in a position where I'm not comfortable.' Rob admitted he hasn't felt comfortable in his own skin for several years, and appearing on camera while feeling that way didn't make sense to him. 'Why would I want to go be on camera and just be vulnerable and let people in when that's not what I want to do?' he added. Although he confirmed he might consider filming in the future under the right circumstances, Rob emphasized that he prioritizes his own peace and happiness over public exposure. 'Filming and doing all that, it's not for everybody,' he said. 'I choose my own happiness and peace.' Despite his absence from The Kardashians, Rob remains close to his family and is especially tight with Khloé, who frequently spends time with his daughter Dream.

Is Kourtney Kardashian really pregnant again?
Kourtney Kardashian is putting pregnancy rumours to rest, again. After sharing vacation photos from Portofino, Italy, fans flooded the comments with claims she was expecting. But the 46-year-old mom of four wasn't having it. The speculation ignited after Kourtney posted a bikini-clad carousel on Instagram, prompting one user to write, 'You can tell from the bikini reflection photo Kourtney is pregnant again.' Rather than ignore it, Kourtney fired back with a pointed yet breezy reply, 'Or breastfeeding, eating gelato, focaccia, pasta, not working out and living my best damn life baby!' Kourtney, who shares her youngest son Rocky (20 months) with husband Travis Barker, made it clear that her current glow is thanks to carbs, not a baby. She's still breastfeeding and embracing a laid-back lifestyle while abroad, far from any pregnancy announcement. This isn't the first time fans have speculated about her body. The reality star and Poosh founder has previously spoken out against pregnancy assumptions, often caused by natural post-baby changes or candid photos. But this time, her clapback carried a tone of confidence and self-love, echoing her broader message about body acceptance. The online chatter hasn't slowed Kourtney down. She's openly embraced her role as stepmother to Travis's three children from his previous marriage and recently called their blended family a 'deeper, richer existence' during an appearance on Khloé Kardashian's podcast Khloé in Wonder Land. Despite occasional challenges, Kourtney insists the love in their household outweighs the chaos. As she continues to share sun-drenched snaps from the Italian coast, fans now have their answer, and it's not baby news, it's gelato.
