Kourtney Kardashian earns praise for posting 'unfiltered' photos of her body... unlike her famous sisters
The 46-year-old mother-of-four — who was recently called out for a 'cringey' promo post — shared a carousel of images, including one in which she wore a nude-toned bodysuit.
The clinging piece bared the reality television star's legs, flashed her busty cleavage and hugged her hips as a tiny bit of skin spilled out from the sides.
Kourtney looked self-assured in the makeup-free mirror selfie taken inside what looked like a vacation home.
One fan wrote in the comments, 'It's crazy but your body looks so much better than your sisters'. It's real!'
The person added, 'And we applaud you for sticking [up] for all of us that couldn't afford changing our bodies.'
In one Instagram photo she wore a clinging nude-toned bodysuit that bared her legs, flashed her busty cleavage and hugged her hips as a tiny bit of skin spilled out from the sides
One fan wrote, 'Beautiful unfiltered. My favorite Kardashian.'
Another echoed the sentiment and referenced Kourtney's husband Travis Barker: 'I love that you post unfiltered! So comfortable in who you are because you're loved right.'
There was also a note that read: 'Your post pregnancy body is beautiful, by the way... Thank you for showing your work in progress.'
The POOSH founder shares Mason, 15; Penelope, 13; and Reign, 10, with her ex-boyfriend Scott Disick.
In November 2023, she welcomed her fourth child, a son named Rocky, with her husband Travis, 49.
Kourtney's family members — including 60-year-old mom Kris Jenner and sisters Khloé Kardashian, 41, and Kylie Jenner, who turns 28 on August 10 — have admitted to going under the knife to achieve their striking looks.
Kris recently awed fans when she revealed a youthful-looking visage after a facelift.
Khloé has previously confessed to undergoing a nose job, and weeks ago Kylie stunned fans by dropping the specifications of her breast implants.
One fan wrote in the comments, 'It's crazy but your body looks so much better than your sisters'. It's real!'
Someone else complimented, 'Beautiful unfiltered. My favorite Kardashian'
Meanwhile, Kourtney has also been open about having a boob job when she was just 21.
But unlike some of her family members, the entrepreneur usually opts not to retouch the photos she shares with her online audience.
'Love the natural Kourtney,' one supporter gushed on Friday.
Another person proclaimed, 'I love how unfiltered her content has become. It's as if the Kardashians introduced the concept of filters, posing, lighting on social media. Then removed all of it and left the rest of us scrambling to filter and edit in their wake. You know what? Good for her.'
In July, matriarch Kris was called out for an alleged 'Photoshop fail' that left one of her limbs appearing distorted after she posted a photo on social media.
And on a July episode of her Khloé In Wonder Land podcast, Khloé responded to a fan who accused her of editing 'every picture' she posts.
The Good American founder explained that she no longer feels the need to 'heavily' alter her pictures.
'There was a time that I definitely did. There was a time that I was around some people that would make me feel like I needed to,' she began. 'I also think it was the era too.'
She continued: 'I think there was a time we were all consumed by this filter lifestyle and we couldn't see ourselves without a filter.'
'I do like myself better on video than stills,' Khloé said. 'I don't think I'm the most photogenic but I'll take 500 photos to get the one that I like. That's OK, I'm allowed to do that.'
The mother-of-two said in hindsight she feels she looked 'like a cartoon character' in some of the images that she edited.
'It's humiliating that I even thought that was a version of myself,' the TV personality confessed.
Khloé also raised eyebrows this summer when she got unusually candid on social media about her cosmetic procedures — but noticeably skipped over what many believe is the most obvious tweak: an apparent butt lift.

Broadcaster pays back six figure sum after pay scandal
Broadcaster pays back six figure sum after pay scandal Tubridy was to be paid a total 225,000 over three years by the national broadcaster as part of a deal to top up his salary, which was not disclosed by RTE. Ryan Tubridy (Image: Ryan Tubridy/Instagram) Irish broadcaster Ryan Tubridy has repaid RTE a sum of 150,000 euro he received as part of a controversial payment deal made in 2020. Tubridy was to be paid a total 225,000 over three years by the national broadcaster as part of a deal to top up his salary, which was not disclosed by RTE. The presenter was paid two instalments of 75,000 euro by RTE for personal appearances for commercial sponsor Renault as part of the contentious deal. The deal involved Tubridy making three appearances per year at Renault events. RTE executives previously said Renault paid Tubridy the first 75,000 payment, but then pulled out of the tripartite deal. The payments were not disclosed by RTE in its annual accounts as salary payments. Tubridy left Ireland's national broadcaster following weeks of controversy relating to the organisation publicly under-reporting payments to him. Tubridy was also the long-time host of RTE's flagship Late Late Show on Irish TV. In a statement issued on behalf of Mr Tubridy on Friday, he said: "Earlier today I made a payment of 150,000 euro to RTE. "I made this payment through my solicitor, without any discussions with RTE – or with anyone acting on their behalf – and without condition. "I have said on various occasions that I intended making this payment and I'm happy to have been able to do so today." RTE was mired in controversy after it emerged in June 2023 that it under-reported fees paid to Tubridy and failed to correctly disclose 345,000 euro of payments to him between 2017 and 2022. Tubridy, who now presents a show on Virgin Radio UK, previously said he would offer to pay back the payments at the centre of the controversy. RTE director general Kevin Bakhurst previously said he would welcome a repayment of 150,000 euro from Tubridy and his agent, Noel Kelly, over unfulfilled commercials events the broadcaster had underwritten. He told an Oireachtas committee in July 2023 that there is probably no legal obligation for them to do so. The furore led to further disclosures about RTE's internal financial, accounting and governance practices and its expenditure on corporate hospitality for advertising clients. The Government carried out two separate external reviews of RTE while a forensic auditor examined the broadcaster's accounts. The Public Accounts Committee and Media Committee also conducted their own probes into the affair. In a statement, RTE said: "RTE can confirm that it has received payment of 150,000 euro from Ryan Tubridy via his solicitor this afternoon. Article continues below "RTE welcomes the payment and would like to thank Ryan Tubridy for making it."

Paul Hollywood's brother ‘punched to the floor and kicked' in horror attack
Bake Off judge Paul Hollywood's brother, Lee Hollywood, was attacked in a 'nasty' and 'unprovoked' assault (Picture: Shutterstock) The brother of Great British Bake Off judge Paul Hollywood has been victim of a brutal attack, during which he was punched to the ground and kicked in the face. Taking to Instagram this weekend, Paul, 59, re-shared a Facebook post by Wirral police which outlined details of the attack. The initial post detailed how a man 'in his 50s' was walking his dog when he got into a dispute with another dog owner. It continued: 'The dogs were separated by the other male who then became irate. As the man walked away he was approached from behind and punched to the floor by the male. He was then kicked in the face and back before the male made off.' Police revealed that the unnamed man suffered 'injuries to his back and face,' and was taken to hospital for treatment while officers investigate witnesses and CCTV.

The TV judge and celebrity baker has since identified the attack victim as his younger brother Lee Hollywood, and launched his own appeal for information. Paul has shared the police's appeal for information (Picture: ITV/Shutterstock) Lee Hollywood is the brother of TV baker Paul (Picture: Shutterstock) Sharing the post to his Instagram account, Paul wrote: 'If you have information regarding this attack on Friday night, the person in question who was attacked is my brother Lee. 'Any information please follow details above Thankyou.' The post by Wirral Police also included a statement from Detective Inspector Phil Ryan, who said: 'This was a nasty and unprovoked assault which left the man needing hospital treatment. 'We are appealing for anyone who was in the area of Links View Playing fields or Shackleton Road at around 7pm last night who heard or saw the incident or saw the male leaving the area to contact us.' Local police are investigating the crime (Picture: Facebook) Like his older brother, Lee is a baker, and worked with Paul at their father's bakery in York – until the celebrity baker hit the big time, that is. 'I'm the grafter of the family, Paul's too busy with Bake-Off. The last time he made a proper loaf was about ten years ago,' Lee joked to The Daily Mail in 2016. Lee used to run Liverpool's Born & Bread, supplying baked goods to local businesses, although this reportedly went into administration in recent years. Paul previously shared his fear that Lee would die after he contracted COVID (Picture: Shutterstock) In 2021, Paul revealed how he feared Lee 'could die' after being hospitalised with COVID during the height of the virus. 'My brother phoned me up a couple of weeks ago to say he caught Covid,' he told The Sun at the time. 'It was a huge panic….I didn't want to lose him.' Paul grew famous as a celebrity bake and Bake Off host while brother Lee continued working in the industry (Picture: Channel 4) He continued: 'My other brother, Jason set up this WhatsApp group. We were bombarding him 'Where are you? What's happening? Are you in ICU?' And it was a huge panic for me. I don't want to lose my brother.' Thankfully, Lee made a full recovery, to the great relief of Paul and the rest of their family. Got a story?

I survived the era of Indie Sleaze

Did you know with a Digital Subscription to The Scotsman, you can get unlimited access to the website including our premium content, as well as benefiting from fewer ads, loyalty rewards and much more. Learn More Sorry, there seem to be some issues. Please try again later. Submitting... It was a period in the new millennium that is looked back fondly for its hedonism and aesthetic. Now referred to as 'indie sleaze,' the term is a catch-all to describe the fashion, culture and music released around that period. Benjamin Jackson looks back at the genres that made up the scene, and some essential listens from that world. It's become the catch-all term to describe the music scene that unfolded at the turn of the millennium, where jeans were super tight, hair coiffed quite high, and style icons ranged from Karen O and Faris Badwan to the cast of Skins and even Noel Fielding. We didn't have a name for it back then, but we were familiar with the notions of scenesters, hipsters, 'The Hoxton Massive,' and everything else that comprised that decadent, hedonistic era of music, fashion, and culture. But these days, that zeitgeist is commonly being referred to as 'indie sleaze.' It does feel quite apt, being a bit more of a social person during those university years. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad The term was coined in 2021 by trend analysts and creators on social media. A popular Instagram account, @indiesleaze, launched around this time and was a major force in defining the aesthetics many of us were already familiar with. Searches on Google for "indie sleaze" spiked in early 2022, confirming its newfound popularity and catching on as a way to categorise and romanticise the pre-social media aesthetic of the 2000s. Benjamin Jackson traces his steps back to the '00s to explain the genres that made up what is now referred to as 'indie sleaze' | Getty Images/Canva Gen Z, who were too young to participate in the original scene, began to rediscover the fashion, music, and photography of the era on platforms like TikTok and Tumblr. The term provided a concise and evocative label for this messy, hedonistic, and unfiltered vibe. It became a catch-all because it perfectly encapsulates the entire subculture—the music, the grimy photography, the fashion, and the overall chaotic attitude—all in one phrase. Though it would appear that most of the scene took place in London, there were quite a few areas outside of the capital that embraced the scene, especially around University areas where Scream bars would open up their function rooms for weekly club nights. If you were a student in Lincoln at the time, you might fondly remember Fat Poppadaddys each Monday at Po Na Na's—and probably seen this mess stumble on the slippery dance floor more than once. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad But the term, being a catch-all after all, doesn't quite demonstrate just how varied the music scene was back then, with many genres either emerging or at the height of their popularity (and due a comeback, let's be honest). So what were the genres that defined indie sleaze, and what were we all listening to getting up to mischief back in the day? What genres comprised 'indie sleaze' Dancepunk/Discopunk Quite possibly the cornerstone genre at the time, though there is some very fierce competition as you'll find out, a lot of the sights and sounds that people remember fondly about the era of indie sleaze emanated from the dancepunk, also known as discopunk, scene. Rooted in the late '70s and '80s and drawing inspiration from post-punk acts at the time (more on that to follow), it combined the raw, hedonistic energy of the punk movement with the rhythm pulses of disco, funk and dub. The result saw something that was both at times aggressive and danceable, while at other times introspective and downbeat. Essentially, it ticked all the boxes when it comes to a night out - the stunning highs in the club, the quirky post-pub return home, and the Sunday morning from hell dealing with a hangover. Just a hangover, mind you (mums are reading after all). Bands like LCD Soundsystem and !!! (Chk Chk Chk) perfected the sound, blending repetitive, groovy basslines with jagged guitar riffs and often deadpan, ironic vocals. They used elements of early electronica and drum machines to create a sound that was both artful and perfectly suited for a chaotic dancefloor. The genre served as a crucial bridge, bringing indie rock kids into clubs and electronic music fans to live band shows, defining the hedonistic club culture of the era. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Electroclash/Electrosleaze Electroclash was born out of a rebellion against the overly serious electronic music of the late 1990s. The genre looked back to the sounds of 1980s synth-pop, new wave, and early industrial music, but infused it with a decidedly modern, often provocative, and deliberately kitschy aesthetic. It was a fusion of raw electronic beats, cold synthesisers, and vocals that were often deadpan, robotic, or sexually explicit. The "sleaze" in the name wasn't an accident; it was a celebration of low-fidelity cool and trashy, dancefloor hedonism, and the genre's visual style was as important as its sound. Artists embraced a look that was part disco glitter, part punk aggression, and part B-movie sci-fi. It was the sound of artists who understood the irony and theatre of pop music, using it to challenge expectations and create something genuinely fresh and exciting. Electroclash acted as a crucial counterpoint to the more guitar-driven rock revival of the same era, providing the soundtrack for the more outlandish and art-focused corners of the indie sleaze movement. Garage Rock If Discopunk was the electronic genre du jour during the era, then Garage Rock was arguably the single most important musical catalyst on the guitar side of the indie sleaze scene. It emerged in the late 1990s and early 2000s as a direct reaction against the polished, post-grunge rock and pop music of the era. The genre was a return to the raw, stripped-down energy of 1960s garage rock and punk, with a focus on simple, guitar-driven riffs and unpolished production. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Bands like The Strokes, The Libertines and The White Stripes became international sensations by championing a sound that was both retro and fresh. They brought a sense of effortless cool and gritty authenticity back to guitar music, inspiring countless bands to pick up their instruments. The aesthetic was also a key part of the revival, with bands embodying a sense of thrift-store chic and a swaggering, nonchalant attitude that defined the early years of the new millennium. The success of this movement made it cool to be in a guitar band again and laid the groundwork for many other genres that would follow in its wake. Essential listening: The Strokes, The White Stripes, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, The Libertines Post-Punk Revival While Garage Rock brought back the raw swagger of the '60s, Post-Punk Revival provided the Indie Sleaze era with its darker, more atmospheric side. This genre looked to the moody, rhythmic, and often intellectual sounds of the original post-punk movement of the late 1970s and early 1980s, channelling the spirit of bands like Joy Division, Gang of Four, and The Fall. The revival saw a new generation of bands in the 2000s create music that was less about power chords and more about angular guitar riffs, prominent basslines, and a taut, propulsive rhythm section. The focus was on atmosphere and danceable grooves, often with detached or emotionally cold vocals that evoked urban alienation and introspection. Bands like Interpol and Bloc Party were at the forefront, creating a sound that was both sophisticated and instantly recognisable. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad It gave indie sleaze its more serious, brooding counterpart, offering a soundscape for the quieter moments before or after a chaotic night out. Nu-Rave Sound the rave horns - the Nu-Rave horns that were! This genre emerged in the mid-to-late 2000s as a colourful, chaotic offshoot of the indie sleaze movement. It was a conscious fusion of indie rock's songwriting and energy with the visual and sonic elements of 90s rave culture. Bands in this genre embraced a hedonistic aesthetic of glowsticks, neon colours, and a carefree, psychedelic abandon that set it apart from the grimy swagger of garage rock. Musically, Nu-Rave was defined by its unapologetic use of synthesisers, propulsive electronic beats, and often a raw, punk-infused energy. It took the euphoric drops and dancefloor sensibilities of rave music and paired them with the guitar-driven structures of indie rock, creating a sound that was both nostalgic and distinctly modern. The genre's brief but brilliant moment was a celebration of youthful excess, providing a vibrant soundtrack for an era defined by its messy, high-energy nights out - but much like those of us who were out and about during the era, it also had to grow up eventually. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad Bloghaus/Bloghouse Bloghouse was a chaotic, aggressive, and highly influential genre of electronic dance music that was completely defined by the internet. Unlike previous music scenes centred around physical locations like London or Detroit, Bloghouse flourished on music blogs (most famously Hype Machine) in the mid-to-late 2000s. It was a fusion of hard-hitting electronic beats, indie rock samples, and techno with a punk-rock attitude. The sound was unapologetically brash, loud, and over-the-top. The genre's rise established a new template for music discovery and culture. Instead of relying on traditional radio or MTV, artists and fans found each other on blogs and forums, building a vibrant online community that dictated the trends. This DIY, unfiltered, and internet-native approach to music was a direct blueprint for how bedroom producers and artists on platforms like SoundCloud would operate in the 2010s, making Bloghouse a vital bridge between the Indie Sleaze era and the streaming age. Art-rock/Art-punk So what about those that didn't want to hit the dancefloor and preferred nihilism and aggression over hedonism and debauchery? Well, Art-punk and Art-rock provided a more challenging, abrasive, and intellectual edge. The genre looked back to the more experimental and theatrical side of the original punk movement, channelling the spirit of bands who prioritised performance art, dissonance, and sonic chaos over traditional song structures. It was less about polished production and more about creating a raw, in-your-face experience. Advertisement Hide Ad Advertisement Hide Ad The revival in the 2000s saw bands embrace a sound that was angular, noisy, and often unpredictable. The music was defined by its aggressive sonic textures, complex and irregular rhythms, and a sense of theatricality and urgency. Art-punk was the sound of the scene's underground, a vital counterpoint to the more accessible garage rock and electro acts. It was for the fans who wanted something more chaotic and artistically daring, and it showcased the true diversity of the era's music - the 'thinking persons' indie sleaze, if you will.
