Khloe Kardashian felt ‘more confident' before weight loss
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles
Khloe Kardashian felt 'way more confident' before she lost weight. The 40-year-old reality star has opened up about her fitness journey and the public's reaction to her weight loss as she hit out at the 'gross' response from certain people.
Speaking on her own Khloe in Wonder Land podcast, she told fitness influencer Whitney Simmons: 'The bigger I was, I was way more confident.
'I think because, like, what are going to say about me? I know all the things you're going to say. I would have my days that I would feel low and all of that.
'When I started my fitness journey and, like, becoming in shape, I felt such a need that I had to keep this up, like even if it wasn't for me. I felt like, 'Well, I can't get fat again, because everyone is expecting that to happen.'
' Instead, she found herself getting 'a different type of attention'.
She added: 'It was also a different type of attention I was now receiving. 'And then once I got a little older, I was like, 'Wait, this is gross.' I hated that that's why I was getting more attention because I looked a certain way.'
Khloe insisted she had the 'same amount of people' sending her abuse regardless of her weight.
She explained: 'I've learned, no matter what, I'm never going to make people happy because I was once bigger, I was thinner, and I had the same amount of people, but from different ends.
'When I lost weight, I was 'a traitor to the bigger community'; I'm 'not myself'; I'm 'not funny anymore.' I'm 'not all the things' that I still am at my core.
'I just aesthetically look a little different, or a lot different, whatever you want to say.'
Although she has been through lots of ups and downs in her own life, Khloe is determined to achieve something positive using her 'platform'.
The star - who has daughter True, seven, and son Tatum, two, with her ex-partner Tristan Thompson - recently told PEOPLE magazine: 'I feel like I was given this opportunity, these platforms, for a reason.
'And it's really easy to sort of believe the hype and forget really where you came from and just believe the BS because so much of it is filler.
'We have to have some sort of core and heart and moral compass.'

Rebel Wilson ‘went into beast mode for Bride Hard'
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles Rebel Wilson went into 'beast mode' in preparation for Bride Hard. The 45-year-old actress has revealed that she embarked on an intense fitness plan in preparation for the new action-comedy film. Rebel - who previously starred in Bridesmaids and the Pitch Perfect film franchise - told People: 'I often put my body on the line for physical comedy.' The actress pushed herself to her physical limits in preparation for the new movie. However, Rebel actually enjoyed the challenge of getting herself in tip-top shape for Bride Hard. She said: 'I was pretty strong during this movie. I trained for a full five weeks and did conditioning for it, and then I had to be really kind of in beast mode, but I really enjoyed it, getting paid to almost be fit, which is really good.' Rebel uses curling irons like nunchucks in the new movie, and she admits to taking inspiration from movie icon Jackie Chan. She shared: 'When I lived in South Africa, basically to pass the time I would watch Jackie Chan videos and his comic timing, and I just loved all the movies. Even if they weren't subtitled and I couldn't even understand the dialogue, I just loved all his comedy-action scenes. 'They were so good. So I guess that's why I originally picked up nunchucks, to try to be a bit like Jackie Chan.' Meanwhile, Rebel recently revealed that she was almost 'permanently disfigured' while filming Bride Hard. The Hollywood star - who portrays a secret agent named Sam in the upcoming movie - was smacked in the face by a gun during her final night of filming, leaving her surrounded by a 'pool of blood'. Rebel told Access Hollywood: 'In a fight scene, a gun accidentally got whacked across my face. 'It was just a freak accident, and my nose got split open, so I left set. It was my last night of shooting. I was like, 'How unlucky can I be?'

Gina Gershon almost broke Tom Cruise's nose
Bang Showbiz | Los Angeles Gina Gershon almost broke Tom Cruise's nose when he tickled her during a love scene. The 63-year-old actress appeared opposite the Top Gun star in 1988 movie Cocktail and she's revealed she accidentally kicked him in the face and left him covered in blood while they were filming a romantic scene in bed together. She told the Guardian newspaper: 'I almost broke his nose. I had never done a love scene before and it was going to be with Tom Cruise. I thought: God, I get paid for this. He was so cute. I had a crush on him immediately. He was very protective and very much a gentleman, saying: 'Let's keep you covered.' He was very concerned ... 'I'd told him I was very ticklish, because he had started to tickle me earlier. I said: 'Just don't do that. I lose control because I was tortured as a child by my brother'. 'Right before the take, he was down there and grabbed my waist in a tickly, sweet manner. I didn't mean to, but I had a kneejerk reaction right into his nose. 'It was full of blood. I thought: I just broke Tom Cruise's nose.' Gershon admits she felt terrible about the accident and feared she'd never work in Hollywood again - but Cruise was very 'kind' and 'sweet'. She added: ' I [thought I] will never work in Hollywood again. I was mortified because I really kicked him good. I didn't mean to. 'He said: 'Nope. My bad. You warned me.' I remember thinking: this guy is a movie star. He deserves everything he gets. 'He was just so kind and so sweet with me in a situation where I was quite vulnerable.' Gershon also starred in 1995 erotic drama Showgirls and she previously admitted she was terrified for her career after the movie bombed at the box office. She told The Independent newspaper: 'I realised I have a lot of PTSD around that movie ... They were like, this is gonna be huge – but I knew it was going to be a disaster.
