Entrepreneur and Reality Tv star Khloe Kardashianthrew a lavish neutral-colored bear themed baby shower for her BFF, actress and model Malika Haqq,over the weekend.
The event was held at the luxurious Waldorf Astoria hotel in Beverly Hills, California. Celebrity event planner Mindy Weiss organized the luxe celebration.
The mom-to-be wore a muted strappy floor length fish tail, bump-hugging jersey dress with her hair pulled back in a sleek ponytail and subtle and soft makeup.
Attendees were treated to goodies like sweet honey tea in adorable bear jars,petite pastries, a multi-tiered cake and cereal because according to Khloe in an insta story video, Malika craved cereal for most of her pregnancy.
They also played typical baby shower games like the “can’t say ‘baby’” game, the guess Malika’s baby belly girth and the guess the baby’s delivery date and guess the number of cookies in the jar game.
“A BEARy beautiful Baby Shower!!” Khloe captioned a series of photos of the event. “I have been planning Malika’s baby shower in my head for quite some time. Malika was very specific with not wanting color. So this was the only color we were able to get away with LOL It turned out beautifully!”
Everyone wore brown, white and other muted and neutral colors to the event to accommodate Malika’s request.
“I could not thank @mindyweiss @andrew_mindyweiss @jeffleatham enough!!” Khloe added thanking the event planning staff. “I know I’m a lot at times because I’m so specific and I love to micro manage but you guys always go over the top. You surpass any dream that I have ever conjured up in my head as to how I want something to look. Every time I am WOWED by your work and perfection! Thank you guys for being the best! You literally are my dream team! Thank to everyone who helped put this spectacular shower together!”
Here are some videos and photos of the fun event that the host, guests and vendors posted on their respective social media pages
It seems like 2018 was the year of big moments in entertainment. From box office hits to celebrity engagements, this was definitely a year of highs -and some lows- for the entertainment industry. Here are a few of the biggest headlines we saw in 2018.
The Royal Wedding
One of the biggest stories of 2018 was the royal union of Meghan Markle and Prince Harry. The British prince and the American actress tied the knot at St. George’s Chapel on May 19th, with an estimated 1.9 billion viewers tuning in around the world. You would think with that many people watching the couple would be nervous, but Megan and Harry looked happy, poised and gracious when entering and exiting the ceremony.
The star-studded guest list was another reason so many people tuned in to watch the nuptials, with notable figures such as David and Victoria Beckham, James Corden, and even Sir Elton John turning out to the event. A few months after the wedding came an exciting announcement- the couple is expecting their first child!
Kylie’s Surprise Baby Announcement
One of the most surprising stories in celebrity news this year was the birth of Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott’s first daughter, Stormi. Up until Stormi’s birth on February 1st, Kyle never confirmed that she was pregnant in the first place!
The announcement came in the form of a video posted to Kylie’s social media accounts on Superbowl Sunday, effectively overshadowing the big game between the Philadelphia Eagles and the New England Patriots. Upon hearing the news, fans of both the reality TV star and the rapper took to social media to congratulate the happy couple, and the rest of the Kardashian/Jenner clan expressed their joy as well.
California Wildfires
Not every piece of news this year was positive. In late 2018, wildfires began wreaking havoc up and down the state of California. In addition to civilians, many celebrities were affected by the devastating fires, including Miley Cyrus, Gerard Butler and Neil Young, who lost their homes in the Southern California fire.
Many celebrities came out to show their support during these hard times, and Gerard Butler hosted a star-studded fundraising event with a guest list including Sean Penn, Robin Thicke, Cindy Crawford, and many more famous faces. Although the California wildfires devastatingly destroyed thousands of homes, many communities have already started to rebuild, thanks to generous donations from civilians and celebrities alike.
A Bachelor Engagement
If you were one of the 7.8 million people who tuned into the Bachelor season 22 finale on March 5th, you know that Bachelor Arie Luyendyk Jr. proposed to Becca K…. and then dumped her on live TV to be with Lauren B. While the plot twist certainly made for good TV, viewers were outraged at the heartlessness of Arie’s on-screen breakup.
However, being publicly dumped ended up working in Becca’s favor, as she was announced the new Bachelorette on After the Final Rose. Since then, Arie and Lauren have announced that they plan to get married in January 2019 and are actually expecting a baby in June! As for Becca, the Minnesota native is happily engaged to Garrett Yrigoyen, whom she met on The Bachelorette! With how wild 2018 has been, 2019 is expected to be just as big for the entertainment industry.
New movies, music from top 40 singers, and even some pregnancy announcements are sure to take the media by storm in 2019, so be sure to look out for what’s to come!
