STOP THE PRESS: KYLIE JENNER & BLAC CHYNA ARE FRIENDS??????!!?

In a weird twist of fate, Kylie Jenner took to Snapchat the other day to let the world know that her and Tyga’s baby mama, Blac Chyna, are actually friends – and have been friends for a while now. Now, this might be some complex publicity stunt engineered by the people at Kris Jenner & Co.™, but it could be legit, seeing as big brother Rob Kardashian has been dating Blac Chyna and just recently put a ring on her finger.

The announcement was made via Snapchat in typical Kylie fashion – a la mirror pic – and featured both ladies looking like genuine homies for the most part if you kind of tilt your head to this a weird angle and squint a little. They included captions like, “Hanging out with my lil sis,” and “When we’ve been best friends the whole time.”

Now it’s time for a little history lesson.

Blac Chyna used to be friends with big sis Kim (or they still might be tight, who knows anymore???). When those two stopped hanging out, Kylie allegedly started dating Tyga, who has a child with Blac Chyna from a previous thing. When T+BC ended, Tyga cashed out for that Kardashian money with 16-year-old Kylie (all allegedly of course). What happened next was a semi-dramatic string of passive aggressive Twitter and Instagram flexing competitions, with both Blac Chyna and Kylie showing off the various rides, bling and Rolexes Tyga apparently bought for each of them. At this point, you’re probably wondering how he was even able to afford these things, seeing as he can’t even afford his rent, (if TMZ is to be believed.)

Fast forward a little and now big brother Rob is dating Blac Chyna (which was the most random celebrity couple since Courtney Stodden and that one 50-something-year-old what’s-his-name) and after three minutes of dating, they’re engaged now. With the inevitable news that Blac Chyna is now a Kardashian-In-Waiting, it all came full circle when Kylie and Blac Chyna announced that they were actually besties.

Huh?????!!??!?!?!

Listen, I get that Blac Chyna is technically family now, but is this some kind of crazy conspiracy or publicity stunt or something? I don’t believe this mess for one second. Also, what is it with the Kardashians actually being friends with people they publicly beef with? *See: Kim Kardashian and Amber Rose

Somewhere, in her Calabasas palatial enclave high above the lowly commoners, High Priestess Kris Jenner is rubbing her perfectly manicured fingers together smiling maniacally as she thinks about us degenerates completely in astonishment at what has just become the next storyline for Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
