Khloe Kardashian Laughs Off Rumors O.J. Simpson Is Her Father, Defends Her Edited Selfies [Video]

As if the gossip mill surrounding the Kardashian family isn’t enough, rumors that O.J. Simpson is Khloe Kardashian’s real father have resurfaced. Although the rumors have been around for a while, Khloe adamantly denies Simpson is her real dad – and so does O.J., for that matter.

In a recent interview on live television show Hollywood Today, interviewers asked Khloe about an article that appeared the same day, accusing Simpson of being her real father. In response, a shocked Khloe Kardashian responded with an incredulous “again?” indicating she already knew about the false rumors – and this wasn’t the first time the Kocktails With Khloe star had battled the gossip.

The host then asked Kardashian “I mean, are you sick of it? How do you handle it?” A cool Khloe joked “[h]oney. I don’t look half black to you? What? Don’t insult me. Now I know I’m pale but…” while the show hosts laughed along with Kardashian.

Khloe’s real father, Robert Kardashian, represented O.J. Simpson in the now-infamous murder trial, and was married to Khloe’s mother, Kris Jenner (then known as Kris Kardashian) from 1978 until 1991. Robert Kardashian and O.J. were reportedly very close friends.

During an interview about the made for television movie American Crime Story: The People V O.J. Simpson, Kris Kardashian admitted her former husband defended Simpson because he did not feel he had a right to judge the football player. According to Kris, Robert Kardashian had a very strong Christian faith, and believed it was not for him to judge another person.

O.J. Simpson is currently behind bars for armed robbery, but according to the Mirror, the former football player has frequently opened up to a prison security guard named Jeffrey Felix over the last seven years. Speaking to Page Six, Felix admitted that “O.J. picked me out,” and the disgraced celebrity “ended up trusting me almost as much as Al Cowlings. He said, ‘You’re like a brother to me.'”

In response to rumors that he had an affair with Kris, Simpson settled the matter, telling Felix that he did not father Khloe Kardashian, confirming that he “would never do that to my friend Bob. I would never tap Kris.”

The gossip about O.J. Simpson is not the only rumors Khloe has contended with lately. Kardashian, author of the book Strong Looks Better Naked, recently was called out for photoshopping her Instagram images, causing some fans to wonder if the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star really looks as good as she says.

It all began when Khloe posted a photo, that has since been deleted, to her Instagram account captioned “[I’m] just trying to be better than I used to be. I compete with myself.” Several followers quickly noticed a curve in the door, which is a sure sign an image has been photoshopped to make Khloe look better. Kardashian quickly deleted the offending photo, posting the original image in its place.

Naturally, Khloe, who has worked very hard to slim down, looks fantastic in the new photo, which features her toned six-pack abs. In the caption, Khloe called out her haters, typing that “[i]f only hatin burned calories how dope yall would be. Too bad it doesn’t. Here’s the OG shot.” According to Mashable, the first photo was edited to remove a bump on the reality star’s thigh, not to enhance her physique at all.

To show solidarity, one of the celebrity’s makeup artists posted a raw, unedited photo of Khloe as further proof Kardashian has the rock-solid body she claims. The photo, which shows Khloe in just a bra and panties, shows that Kardashian is the real deal.
