The Kardashians 'Terminate' MasterCard Deal

The Kardashian family has officially pulled the plug on the new "Kardashian Kard" -- a prepaid debit card backed by MasterCard -- over allegations that it's riddled with hidden, possibly illegal fees.

The family fired off a "Notice of Termination" to the companies behind the Kard moments ago -- stating they're sick of the "negative spotlight" since the Attorney General of Connecticut opened an investigation to determine if the Kard violates consumer protection laws.

The A.G. was concerned over several fees associated with the Kard -- which reportedly costs $9.95 to own ... plus 12 monthly fees of $7.95. It also costs $1.50 every time the owner wants to add money to the Kard.

In the letter, obtained by TMZ, Kardashian lawyers write, "The Kardashians have worked extremely long and hard to create a positive public persona that appeals to everyone, particularly young adults."

The lawyers claim the investigation "threatens everything for which [The Kardashians] have worked" -- so the family has decided to "terminate the agreement ... effective immediately."

Nicole is seeking to extend a temporary restraining order -- or TRO -- against the photographer whom she claims is lurking around her daughter Harlow's nursery school. Richie will be in court with her powerhouse attorneys Tamar Arminak and Mark Geragos.

A source close to the situation tells us: "Nicole's attorneys will put on the stand several preschool teachers from Harlow's school that have witnessed this photographer crossing the line trying to get pictures. Nicole is fiercly protective of her children, and won't tolerate this. Nicole could testify also."

Nicole "is very busy planning her wedding to Joel, but she will drop everything to protect their children," the source said.

Under California law, a temporary restraining order lasts for three weeks, but if the TRO is made permanent, it will extend the order to up to three years.

The hearing will take place Wednesday morning at the civil court in downtown Los Angeles.

Khloe Kardashian: I Had Sex Too Young

Khloe Kardashian was just 14 years old when she lost her virginity with an 18-year-old man whom she was "secretly dating", she revealed on The View Monday.

"Looking back I think that's not a normal thing," the married reality star, 26, admitted on the talk show, adding that she almost felt "conned" by her older sex partner. "Well, not conned, but persuaded, because he was older and I felt I wouldn't be accepted or cool or whatever," Khloe said.

How did she feel after the act? "I felt so disgusted with myself," she confessed. "I stopped talking to him and actually didn't have sex for three years after that because I knew I was young and I knew I wasn't ready."

Her biggest regret: "I should have listened to my parents," she said, telling her fans, "don't let anyone pressure you, it's not worth it and how I felt afterwards."

Wed to Lamar Odom since last September, Khloe wrote about the experience in Kardashian Konfidential, the tell-all co-authored with sisters Kim and Kourtney, out now.

Pink’s Preferred Name for a Baby Boy: Jameson

Pink, who is a little more than three months pregnant, says she and husband Carey Hart are halfway there when it comes to naming their baby.

If it’s a boy, says the singer, their first child will be called Jameson.

“My dad’s name is James, and my brother’s name is Jason,” Pink, 31, told Access Hollywood.

“[Carey and I] are both Irish, Carey’s middle name is Jason, [and] Jameson — we like whiskey. That’s a no brainer.”

There’s just one problem: Their doctor believes they’re expecting a girl. And, says Pink, finding the perfect name has been a struggle.

“We’re all over the place,” she says of the naming process. “I’m all about meaning, and Carey feels like he had a girl’s hair cut and a girl’s name, and he doesn’t want kids to have a weird name. I have to get him on the boat for originality, so I’m working on him.”

Even though she’s chosen a boy’s name that evokes a brand of whiskey, Pink says she’s not tempted to drink alcohol at all — even if the doctor okays it.

“You know what? I thought I’d be like that – I couldn’t even comprehend someone not wanting wine,” the “Raise Your Glass” singer says. “But honestly, I just don’t. I don’t want anything bad.”
