Kim Kardashian graces three different covers of Elle U.K. for its “Confidence” issue, but glamour didn’t always come this easy to the celebrity and she talks about it in the magazine.

The reality star spoke about maternity, her stolen nude photos and how she struggled with her body image growing up.

“It’s taken me a long time to be happy with my body and for my confidence to grow to what it is today,” she admits. “I grew up when the body to have was the tall, slim, supermodel one, like Cindy Crawford’s. No one looked like me. It’s good to break the mould and recreate one.”

One famous Latina that has credited Kim Kardashian for revolutionizing body beauty is Demi Lovato.

“I really credit women like Beyonce and Kim Kardashian… [they] completely revolutionized what our generation’s view of perception of what beautiful is and I really think that they had a huge impact on that,” Lovato said.

Her recent nude shoot for Paper magazine proved kim is proud of her celebrated curves but she did admit that she was upset about the recent naked pictures that were leaked online.
“I feel violated because these are private pictures. I didn’t choose for them to be out there. But I’m also realistic. I’m on covers of magazines naked, so I can’t go crazy about it. The only choice I can make is to not let it shake me up. I’m not having that choice taken away from me.”

The celebrity also opened up about how difficult it was for her to get pregnant — and how she is also considering IVF treatment.

“I want a boy and another girl; I want it to start happening straight away. I loved being part of a huge family – and I want that for North. We’d do IVF if nothing happens, but we both want to keep trying naturally. ” Kim added, “a few years ago I was told I could never get pregnant. Three different doctors told me the same thing, which is why I wanted to have my eggs frozen. I was just about to do that when I found out I was pregnant with North.”

In her first interview since becoming a mother, Eva Mendes sat down with Ellen Degeneres to discuss baby Esmeralda and pranked the audience by promising to reveal the first photo of the newborn, only to instead show a hilarious mashup of Mendes and Gosling’s faces.

Ellen thanked the new mom for coming out of the house for the first time and putting on a dress, but she also called out Eva for lying about being pregnant on her show back in February, sharing a clip of her denying the rumors.

“It wasn’t really lying because I was so early on and all moms will understand, you’re not supposed to tell anybody during your first… Well certainly not the world… In your first trimester. And my mother didn’t even know yet. So that would have been an awkward phone call. ‘Hey mom did you catch Ellen today?’

Mendes went on to explain why she and Gosling decided to keep the news a secret.
“I think just early on, we decided it’s going to be very hard for her to have privacy. And we thought this is the first opportunity we can give her to protect her and so then I had a nice calm pregnancy, which I did.” Eva said.

While Mendes’s pregnancy went without a glitch, she revealed that she’s exhausted.
“You know we’re getting the hang of it, the sleeping thing, but yeah I’m exhausted and it’s the best…Really, I’m so incredibly tired. I thought I was tired before at times, but no. Nothing like this, but I wouldn’t have it any other way.”

However, despite being tired the actress looks slim and gorgeous, which she attributes to breast-feeding.

“I’ve always heard it. It really does help to shrink your uterus back to normal size. It does! I know it’s a really weird thing to say, but it does. It’s the best yeah.” Eva said.

International superstars Enrique Iglesias and Pitbull brought the party of “Sex and Love” to their beloved hometown Miami, with up-and-coming Colombian star J Balvin, who opened the show with his mega hit “6AM” along with surprise guest Farruko.

Pitbull was up first, using his hourlong set to showcase a South Miami Beach style party, with songs such as “Dont’ Stop the Party,” “Fireball,” “International Love” and, best of all, “Rain Over Me.” The Cuban rapper also paid tribute to his collaborators that he has worked with over the years, including those with JLO, Marc Anthony, Shakira, Christina Aguilera, Neyo, Kesha and many more.

“I used to perform on the corner of NW 7th Avenue and 79th Street,” he recalled. “It’s an honor to be able to perform at the AAA.”

Pitbull had everyone jumping during the show but when Enrique Iglesias hit the stage the party was just getting started and the crowd went wild with “I’m a Freak.”
Iglesias sang some of his greatest hits: “Finally Found You,” “Bailamos,” “El Perdedor,” “Loco,”and the summer anthem “Bailando” with Gente de Zona.
And what’s a party without alcohol and some confessions?

Iglesias invited a fan on stage for some shots as he opened up about the separation of his parents when he was younger, and the time he moved from Spain to the U.S. He topped the confession off by singing a beautiful cover of “Stand By Me,” a song that he says made him nostalgic about those hard times.

Both singers made reference of how much they loved Miami because it was where their careers started and they both interacted with the audience to show their appreciation for the “305.”
The Spanish heartthrob and the Cuban rapper kept the audience on their feet all night and at the end of the concert the energetic duo said goodbye with their 2010 smash “I Like It” claiming “We fucking love you, Miami!”
