“Keeping Up With The Kardashians” Recap: Kim Kardashian Has Anxiety, Kendall Jenner Has Sleep Paralysis
On Sunday’s “Keeping Up with the Kardashians,” Kim Kardashian struggled with anxiety, while Kendall Jenner dealt with sleep paralysis. Get the full recap below.
In New York, Kendall called momager Kris in L.A. to tell her about having sleep paralysis, particularly on planes. Kris thought her daughter simply had anxiety over flying, and Kendall in turn thought she was minimizing the situation. “One day when I’m rushed to the hospital, you guys are gonna wake up,” she snapped. Back in L.A., Kendall told Kris she didn’t want to travel, despite having professional obligations, because of the sleep issues. “It almost feels like my heart stops,” she told Kris, saying that her “health is a bigger deal” than her career.
Kim told BFF Jonathan Cheban that she has anxiety about “every last thing,” including driving, and a fear of something disastrous happening. She was unfamiliar with the concept of sleep paralysis, leading Kendall to explain, “It’s like you’re asleep, and then the middle of the night, basically your mind wakes up but your body’s still asleep, so you wake up but nothing can move. You can’t speak — nothing.” She went on, “It’s the scariest thing in the entire world. You literally think you’re never going to be able to move again.”
A stunned Kardashian said in a confessional, “I mean, I thought I was having anxiety. This is like so much scarier. I’ve never heard of sleep paralysis and I think it sounds like such a crazy experience, and I feel so bad that she’s been going through this.” Kris was now concerned about both her daughters, picking up on Kim’s anxiety, and worrying she’d end up in Kendall’s situation. “That’s debilitating,” the matriarch warned, telling the camera it was “ironic” both were “going through similar things,” and hoping the siblings could work on it together.
Kim and Kendall met with a therapist, leading the model to open up about not just the sleep paralysis, but also her panic attacks. She rejected, however, the advice to feel the symptoms in a controlled setting, where she could learn how to cope. Kim, though, willingly went for a car ride with the therapist, who advised her how to handle her “intrusive thoughts” in the moment. Kim hoped her anxiety was a “slip-up,” and she’d soon be able to “take back [her] life.”
Kim was further inspired by the way her dad always lived his life to the fullest, and decided to set the same example for her kids. And in the wake of the therapy session, Kim felt her anxiety was largely gone. In contrast, Kendall continued to struggle, but welcomed Kim’s suggestion to try meditating, which she found relaxing and peaceful. That strengthened Kendall’s resolve to get better, and the sisters pranked Kris by telling her to “cancel everything.” As Kris freaked, Kendall assured her she was recommitted to her job.
In the episode’s other storyline, Scott Disick found himself a surprising new group of friends. Kris invited him to dine with her “girlfriends,” including Kyle Richards and Faye Resnick. That led Scott to join Kris and other pals, like Heather McDonald, for a water aerobics session, which he found to be unexpectedly sexual.
Kim later asked him, “Why on earth are you hanging out with my mom, going to tea parties and doing water aerobics?” Scott argued, “The only difference between them and all of you is they don’t sit on their phones the whole time.” As Kim and Kourtney cracked jokes about the age difference, Scott became defensive, but also started having second thoughts.
He told the camera, “I didn’t want to be a full-blown cougar stalker. It’s definitely not the most normal thing on the planet, so maybe I shouldn’t hang out with the cougar squad.” Scott then blew off a lunch with Kris and her friends, much to her chagrin. Khloe called Kourtney a “hater” for making Scott feel badly, and he admitted to being “scared” that he was liking Kris’ circle too much. Khloe thought “cougar town” was at least a safe environment for him compared to others with negative influences.
Scott started feelingly badly for pushing Kris and her pals away, so he joined them for a painting class. “I don’t care what people think. Age is nothing but a number,” he told the camera, going on to crack, “These ladies need the Lord.” Kris appreciated his presence, as well as his apology for previously flaking.

Plantashun Boiz attempted reunions failed because I wasn’t invited, says Blackface
Blackface, the Nigerian dancehall singer, says Plantashun Boiz, a defunct music group, multiple attempts to reunite failed because he was not included.
Formed in 2000 with 2Baba and Faze, Plantashun Boiz disbanded in 2004 but briefly reunited in 2007 for an album.
In a recent episode of the ‘Curiosity Made Me Ask’ podcast, the host asked Blackface if there was any chance that the group might come back together.
The singer disclosed that his colleagues had attempted to reunite without him but were unsuccessful.
“Without me, they have tried and they have failed. Many times. You saw them in all those shows that they were going,” he said.
“They tried but they failed. But what I must say is I’m the plantation. So let it be known. Forget the fake memo that they spread before.”
In September, Blackface called for the reunion of the defunct music group.
He urged fans to join the mission, emphasising that “unity is strength, not division”.
“My people oya make una talk put mouth for this matter! We are on a mission for world peace and it’s not a small-time thing,” he said in pidgin English.
Since 2015, Blackface constantly tackled 2Baba for recording 2004 hit ‘African Queen’ which he claimed he wrote.
In 2017, he argued that 2Baba “sabotaged” his career in the music industry.

Despite feud, Peter Okoye celebrates Paul on 43rd birthday
Peter ‘Mr P’ Okoye, the Nigerian singer, has celebrated Paul ‘Rudeboy’ Okoye, his twin brother, on their 43rd birthday amid their ongoing feud.
The twin brothers have been in the public eyes since their second fallout in August.
They had their first rift in 2017 which led to the dissolution of Psquare, their music brand. Though they reunited in November 2021, their reconciliation was short-lived.
Paul recently revealed another fallout, accusing Peter of orchestrating his arrest by the Economic and Financial Crimes Commission (EFCC).
Peter, however, denied the allegations and accused Jude Okoye, their older brother, of diverting millions of dollars from their joint account into a secret company.
Responding to the accusations, Jude said he had done everything possible, even “sacrificing himself,” to mend the rift between his brothers.
In an Instagram post on Monday, Peter shared several photos showcasing their growth over the years.
He also celebrated their birthday while wishing himself as well as his twin brother more wins.

Tiwa Savage calls out Wizkid fan for bullying
Wizkid’s group of fans collectively known as “Wizkid FC” are popular for their vehement support for Wizkid and their antagonism toward those considered his rivals.
Tiwa Savage is the latest artist to call out Wizkid FC for harassment after some members of the fanbase mocked her for releasing a song on the same day as Wizkid.
On November 15, 2024, Ruger released his new song ‘Toma Toma’ featuring Tiwa Savage which she shared on her Instagram page with the caption “Told yall this one is special. The @rugerofficial called and I answered”.
In response, a Wizkid fan said “Dey play, nothing special pass Wizzy hits”.
The reply rubbed off wrongly on Tiwa Savage who said “Because I am promoting music? WTF…y’all are not fans anymore ooo you guys are actual bullies”.
