When Rob Kardashian left his sister's wedding early, the tabloids collectively lost it, speculating about why the Kardashian brother wouldn't stay to watch his sister walk down the aisle and, more importantly, to hang out at the reception, which featured not only a photo booth — I will do anything for a photo booth — but a performance by John Legend — I would also do anything for John Legend. (Call me!) Everyone expected the reason to be something dramatic; no one expected Rob's departure to be due to his weight. Now reports are coming in that Rob left because he was too embarrassed to take pictures at his size, and I've got to be real, I totally feel him.
As a fat dude (and I'm officially a fat dude), I hate taking photos, I hate buying clothes, and I hate dressing up. Last month I went to a wedding and there's a picture of me popping a button right before dinner. You know what? If I knew that was going to happen, I would've been out too (but I love me some wedding cake). So, I get it: If you're not into it, you're not into it. And Rob wasn't into it, especially since now reports are coming in that the bride-to-be wasn't being supportive about his recent weight gain.
According to X17, Kim wanted everyone to look like a fashion plate in Valentino on Friday and, well, I don't know if Valentino makes sizes for dudes like us. According to a source that's when things got heated:
"Rob said he was sickened by Kim and Kanye's display of wealth and clothes and beauty and called it 'superficial bullsh*t' but Kim was pissed that Rob hadn't made an effort to drop any weight over the past few months. Rob basically thinks Kim cares about him only for his appearance and he said he'd 'make life easier' for her and just leave."
If that's true, that's pretty cold. Weight is a super-personal matter so if someone's gained some or lost some it's their own business. You never ask a bridesmaid or groomsman to lose weight for the wedding, and if someone isn't looking good enough to take pictures (based on your opinion), you let them do it anyway, because they're family and because weddings are family memories. But if they don't want to take pictures, that's cool too. That's why you'll mostly find me in the corners of photos, looking like an uncomfortable ghost.
Keep strong, Rob! You're doing fine!
