As the birth of the Kimyeby draws nigh, a 24-year-old Canadian model told the Star — truly the hallmark of upstanding journalism — that Kanye West cheated on Kim Kardashian with her after explaining that they were just together “for publicity and nothing serious.” Says Leyla Ghobadi: “This is going to destroy the Kardashian family. It’s bad. It’s really bad. It’s just embarrassing. But if I were Kim and about to have a baby, I would want to know.”
She claims that Kanye had a member of his entourage seek her out after he spotted her dancing at his Atlantic City concert last year. She declined that night, but he gave her passes to the next night’s concert, after which they had sex — then again in October in New York. She says that he hit her up as recently as last weekend.

Meanwhile, in a sliiiightly more reputable publication, a massive interview with ‘Ye is rolled out in which we learn a lot. A Lot. Some highlights:
I don’t know if this is statistically right, but I’m assuming I have the most Grammys of anyone my age, but I haven’t won one against a white person.
The longer your ‘gevity is, the more confidence you build.
It’s only led me to complete awesomeness at all times. It’s only led me to awesome truth and awesomeness. Beauty, truth, awesomeness. That’s all it is.
If you don’t make Christmas presents, meaning making something that’s so emotionally connected to people, don’t talk to me.
The whole thing is worth reading. [NYT]
Jesus. Justin Timberlake, I am creeped out about how the right side of your nose is meant to double as a breast. And the fact that the silhouette has a distinctive nipple that is made out of your face. All in all, I think the intimation of sexuality on the cover of your new single “Tunnel Vision” is WAY too subtle. [NYDN]

Amanda Show co-star Drake Bell says that Amanda Bynes is totally fine — he had lunch with her the other day, and she was “healthy” like a fox.
“She’s in a place right now where she is searching. She’s ready to be her own person, and do her own thing. … She is a girl who is finding herself. Anytime I’ve ever been with Amanda, she’s totally coherent, totally there, totally everything. I’m like, ‘dude, you come off crazy,'” he said. “She’s like, ‘I know, but I don’t mean to. I just changed the way I look!'”
Incidentally, this.

Those of us who had the theory that Miley Cyrus and Justin Bieber were actually the same person can forget it — the two “flirted” at a Hollywood nightclub and then left together at around 2 AM, unless this is a photoshop job and they’re still the same person. Let’s just keep believing that, because it seems right. [TMZ]
Amanda Bynes called Miley Cyrus ugly last night on Twitter. And, scene. [E!]
