OK! Exclusive: Jay-Z Playing Cupid for Khloe Kardashian

April 3rd, 2009 / Author: OK! Staff

Hip-hop entrepreneur Jay-Z is a platinum-selling recording artist, club owner, producer, co-owner of the New Jersey Nets basketball team — and now a matchmaker.

OK! has learned exclusively from pals of the Grammy winner that he’s trying to find a good man for his new friend, Khloe Kardashian.

"Jay thinks Khloe is a good girl," the insider says about the Celebrity Apprentice star. "But she can’t seem to pick out the players from the good guys."

According to the friend, Jay-Z told 24-year-old Khloe that she has to stop dating boys and go for men. "Jay is all about substance so seems like things could work out," the source explains.

Khloe, younger sister to Kim and Kourtney Kardashian, was recently linked to a pro basketball player, but their long-distance relationship ended in January.

A pal of Khloe tells OK! that she’s "happy and loving her newfound singleness." However, there’s no way she’s going to turn down help from Jay-Z. After all, he picked a good one in Beyoncé.

Khloe Kardashian Calls Ex a “Loser”

February 5th, 2009 / Author: OK! Staff

Don’t expect Khloe Kardashian to get back with ex-boyfriend Minnesota Timberwolves player Rashad McCants, 24, any time soon.

“He’s a loser,” she told OK! at the Direct TV Celebrity Beach Bowl. “I just told him it’s done.”

Khloe, who reveals she broke up with Rashad in Minnesota on Jan. 28 after a seven-month relationship, says she found out some not-so-happy news while she was visiting the basketball player.

“I found out while I was there things that I didn’t want to know so I broke up while I was there,” says the 24-year-old, adding that breaking up in person wasn’t easy.

“It was much harder but I’m a strong girl,” she says. “I had to wait till my next flight. I had to wait a couple hours, which sucks.”

Khloe, who came to the Super Bowl in Tampa after the breakup to party away any sadness with sisters Kourtney, 29, Kim, 28, and Kim’s boyfriend, New Orlean Saints running back Reggie Bush, 23, says she has no hard feelings against Reggie for hooking her up with Rashad.

“It’s not his fault,” Khloe says. “I love Reg. And you know what, you never know. Reggie didn’t date him, how’s he supposed to know?”

Khloe, who was with side-by-side with Rashad celebrating New Years in Vegas this year, says she has no plans for any post-breakup revenge.

“I mean, there’s still no hard feelings,” she says. “If I see him it’s fine. It is what it is.”

She’s kept her mind off of breakup sorrows by focusing on work. She’ll be on Celebrity Apprentice, which starts March 1 and Keeping Up With the Kardashians, whose new season begins March 8.

"I think because we did [Keeping Up] as a whole we kind of evolved together which is a positive thing,” Khloe says, who has the support of her family through the breakup. “I have the best family in the world. My mom, my sisters, my brothers, everyone. I couldn’t ask for a better family."

Khloe Kardashian & Boyfriend Split

January 29th, 2009

Cue the violins: Khloe Kardashian and her basketball player boyfriend Rashad McCants have broken up.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star confirmed the news Thursday on her blog, writing:

"I wanted you all to be the first to hear the news that as of last night Rashad and I are no longer together. Relationships are hard enough as is when you live in the same city, and he’s in a different city everyday for games. Our time together was just so limited because of both of our schedules that we decided it is best not to be in a committed relationship."

Khloe adds, "The seven months have been great and we will definitely remain close friends."

The reality TV star and the Minnesota Timberwolves baller, both 24, had been dating since July, 2008, but only went public in Dec.
