Kim
Kardashian and Kanye West reportedly turned down new lucrative offers for first
baby photos of their daughter, North West, and critics suspect the wealthy
couple may be holding out for more money.
In June the reality TV star, 32,
gave birth to her and West's first child however the Hollywood couple is yet to
publicly unveil the newborn. Sources claim that the pair has been bombarded
with offers since Kardashian confirmed her pregnancy and while they reportedly
down a $3 million offer in recent days, reports claim they may agree to a more
substantial amount of $4 million.
"The offers have been pouring
in ever since Kanye announced she was pregnant. All the offers have been
reviewed by her manager/mother Kris Jenner. Kris has made her suggestions to
Kim and Kanye and a deal is very close," an alleged family friend reported.
In 2006, actress Angelina Jolie and
fiancée Brad Pitt were reportedly paid at least $4.1 million by PEOPLE magazine
for photos of their first child, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, and in 2007 they received
$2 million for photos of their adopted son Pax Jolie-Pitt. Source claim that
while West, 36, is reluctant to profit off of his daughter, Kardashian is
trying to persuade the rapper by making bizarre comparisons to Pitt and Jolie.
"Kris [Jenner] pulled the Brad
and Angelina card. She knows Kanye has a huge ego and if it was good enough for
Brad and Angie then it should be good enough for Kanye and Kim," the
source revealed.
"Kris explained that getting
the first pictures out in a controlled manner is also better for the family's
security. It will discourage paparazzi and the couple can even donate some of
the money to charity, after Kris takes her commission," the source added.
