Kim Kardashian has been the butt of a lot of jokes lately. But apparently baby daddy Kanye West is not down with that.

The rapper, who will be performing on SNL on the 18th, reportedly only agreed to join the show for the night IF the writers and cast refrained from cracking pregnant Kim jokes.

The show’s creator Lorne Michaels allegedly kept rejecting Kimye scripts so he could book Kanye as a musical guest!

An insider revealed:

Justin Timberlake has a seriously impressive list of groupies!

The Suit & Tie singer performed at the Roseland Ballroom in New York this weekend, and plenty of stars came out to play!

Jessica Biel was one proud wife and showed support for her hubby by rocking out and singing along to every single word of his songs!

But she wasn’t alone in the star-studded VIP section! Olivia Wilde and her SNL sweetheart Jason Sudeikis were spotted being extra affectionate to JT’s baby-making music and were joined by Andy Samberg and his fiance Joanna Newsom!

Uma Thurman also got in on the fun and brought along her daughter Maya Ray, and the actress occasionally took a break from shaking her booty to snap a few selfies with Brooke Shields!

Damn! Who WASN’T at this concert??!

Seriously, we knew Justin could put butts in the seats, but this is INSANE! How do we get ourselves on that guest list?? LOLz!

Now that Jimmy Fallon is officially taking over Jay Leno’s coveted Tonight Show throne, we need to know — who’s taking over Jimmy’s Late Night seat?!

NBC has yet to make an official announcement, but it seems that SNL head writer and anchor Seth Meyers is the frontrunner for the late night hosting gig! Watch What Happens Live’s Andy Cohen and America’s Got Talent’s Nick Cannon are reportedly also being considered.

In addition to a new host, the show is expected to be reworked so as to lessen its competition with the Tonight Show. It might even switch to a smaller production!

The network is set to make an announcement mid-May, so we’ll just have to keep our eyes and ears open till then!

Prepare to laugh your asses off people!

Former SNL starlet Kristen Wiig and Tobey Maguire will be teaming up with the HIGHlarious Will Ferrell in his upcoming IFC miniseries, The Spoils of Babylon!

Talk about an all-star cast!

The show will have six episodes and is being produced by Ron Burgundy himself along with his partner in crime Adam McKay, who has directed gems such as Step Brothers and Anchorman!

If Kristen and Will's collaboration at the Golden Globes is any indication of what to expect, we're sure it will be AH-mazing!

Seriously, we were already excited when we heard they would be working together in Anchorman 2, and with them teaming up again, this show has all the makings of comedy GOLD!

STOP WHATEVER IT IS YOU’RE DOING! We have some VERY exciting news!

Kristen Wiig is coming back to Saturday Night Live!! Well, sort of.

The HIGHlarious actress will be returning to studio 8H to host SNL on May 11th, and it will be her first appearance since she left the show at the end of last season! Needless to say we’re SUPER stoked!

We were a little disappointed that Kristen didn’t make a surprise appearance when her good friend Melissa McCarthy hosted earlier this month, but we knew she couldn’t stay away for long!

And as if the news wasn’t exciting enough, the musical guest will be Vampire Weekend!!

But wait, there’s more!

It has also been announced that Ben Affleck will be hosting the very next weekend with Kanye West, and with Zach Galifianakis taking over on May 4th with of Monsters and Men, it’s looking like it’s gonna be a GREAT month for SNL!

But lets be real here. Kristen is DEFINITELY the one we’re most excited to see back in action! Hopefully we’ll get to see a little bit of Gilly, the Target Lady, or maybe even a Bjork impression!

What about U? Which characters are U hoping Kristen will bring back?

Apparently pregnant Kim Kardashian is not enough of a reason for her babydaddy Kanye West to return to the US.

Instead, the always-outspoken artist will fly back for a musical guest appearance on SNL May 18th.

Kanye has been in Paris, working on his new album with VERY impressive collaborators — ahem, Daft Punk — but, while we understand this is a business trip, work isn’t everything. It seems the farther along Kim’s pregnancy gets and the more public criticism she receives, the longer Kanye stays away.

And with the recent rumors of a permanent move to France? It's just.. NOT cool!

Surely they'll meet up for a quick kiss after the show, right?? Right???

If not, we’re sensing a ton more dramz to come if these rumors are true! Stay tuned.
