Kim Kardashian Crashes Kris Humphries

Kim Kardashian really let her hair down as she celebrated her impending nuptials in style at her hen party in Las Vegas last night. She managed to hit the headlines again with a story titled “Kim Kardashian Crashes Fiances Bachelor Party” after leaving her own bachelorette party in Las Vegas to surprise her future husband Kris Humphries and his friends.

KK was joined by 20 guests, including sisters Khloe and Kourtney, mom Kris Jenner, and pals LaLa Vasquez, Simone Harouche and Brittny Gastineau. She partied up a storm at Tao nightclub, where she was joined by scantily female dancers - and treated to a striptease from a dwarf.

“After getting over the shock of seeing his fiancée on guy’s night, Humphries kissed his future bride delicately before picking her up to smooch her in full view of the club,” reports People magazine. Apparently that is what Kris did because the friends and family of the bachelor and bachelorette spent the rest of the night mingling together.

Leighton Meester Serves Mom With Lawsuit, Mom Sues Back

TMZ reported that the "Gossip Girl" actress is suing her mom for spending the money she was sending for her brother's medical expenses on plastic surgery, botox and hair extensions instead. Leighton sued her mom last week, claiming Connie uses the $7,500 a month Leighton sends to pay for her brother's medical bills on plastic surgery and Botox for herself.

The “Gossip Girl” actress’ younger brother allegedly had to pull her off Constance. Leighton alleges that Constance Meester has been using considerable sums money meant for her son's medical care on plastic surgery for herself. The 54-year-old claims that she and her daughter had an oral agreement, but Meester wants the judge to rule that there never was one between she and her mother.

Leighton insists she sends that amount every month to pay for her brother's serious medical issues, and that her mom pilfers the cash for herself. Leighton Meester's mother claims the actress beat her with a bottle during an alleged December 2010 attack.

According to Wigg's request, Meester allegedly promised to "hunt down and kill" Wigg and her son. Leighton then fired her as her manager.
