KIM Kardashian reportedly finds it bizarre that her ex Kanye West continues to date women who resemble the SKIMS founder.
The rapper’s new girlfriend, Chaney Jones, was labeled as a “dollar store version of Kim” by the reality star’s unrelenting fans earlier this week.
Kanye, 44, and Chaney, 24, were first linked last month and were spotted enjoying their splashy Miami getaway after the rapper’s Donda 2 concert there.
A source told HollywoodLife that while Kim is confused by her ex’s decision to constantly find lookalike girlfriends, she’s ultimately “relieved” that he has people taking his focus away from her.
Kim, who has since moved on with her comedian boyfriend Pete Davidson, filed for divorce from Kanye last February and has been begging Ye to stop delaying it from being finalized.
Of the rapper now spending time with another new lookalike girlfriend, the insider said: “Kim has seen photos of Chaney and she thinks that Chaney should just be herself and not try to imitate her.
“But, if that is what Chaney wants to do to get the attention she is seeking, or win over Kanye, so be it.
“Kim’s focus right now is herself, her children, and her relationship with Pete.”
Another insider said Kim is “flattered” that Chaney has copied many of her fashion looks, from the revealing black ensembles to the unique sunglasses.
The source continued: “Kim knows that she’s considered a fashion icon, so the fact that so many women, including Chaney, try to emulate her is really quite flattering to Kim.
“Does Kim think it’s a little peculiar that Kanye has dated a few women now that resemble her? Yeah, she does.
“Most women in Kim’s situation would probably feel the same way.
“But as far as her feelings go, Kim doesn’t have the time or energy to concern herself with who Kanye is spending time with.”
Earlier this week, unrelenting fans of Kim’s slammed Ye’s new girlfriend as the “dollar store” version of the billionaire SKIMS mogul.
Internet users were quick to throw shade his new girl’s way, after he just split from “muse” Julia Fox, once they noticed the similarities between her and Kim.
They noted how much her style – like her butt-baring $625 Balenciaga one-pieces at the beach and her sleek all-black outfits for date nights with Ye – resembled Kim’s fashion sense.
On Monday, Chaney posted her first photo with the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum’s ex to Instagram, holding his chest as they posed in matching black outfits.
Since then, a Reddit thread has caught fire about the curvy influencer and it was not exactly subtle.
It was titled: “How long is Ye going to date dollar store/dollar tree’s version of Kim?”
A wave of Redditers voiced their opinions on Kanye’s new girlfriend after he split from his previous “muse” Julia Fox.
One called her the “bootleg Kim K.”
Another chimed in: “I literally thought this was Kim until I looked closer.”
A third, answering the prompt, suggested that the new couple will likely only last a “couple of weeks.”
On Wednesday, Kim was officially declared single amid her nasty divorce, despite ex Kanye’s objections.
TMZ confirmed her single status was reinstated following a court showdown.
Kim attended the hearing on a video call, while Kanye was not present.
According to the outlet, Kanye’s lawyer did not object to restoring Kim’s single status.
However, the lawyer revealed Kanye had three conditions.
The judge granted the first condition, which was that “any right to get reimbursement of money was intended to be divided up will be preserved in case either of the dies.”
The second condition- which the judge rejected- was that the reality star would not transfer any assets she had in trust,
Additionally, if Kim remarries Kanye wants her to waive the “marital privilege”- meaning that a new spouse would not have to testify about communications he had with her.
The judge also denied the rapper’s final condition.
