Kanye West Gave Kim Kardashian an Unexpected Gift Before Her "SNL" Debut

Kim Kardashian 's past with ex-boyfriend Ray J has been a looming subject on "The Kardashians," but her ex-husband, Kanye West , may have found a way to finally put it to rest. The first two episodes of the Hulu series revisit Kardashian's infamous sex tape scandal , which resurfaced after Ray J's former manager reportedly threatened to release never-before-seen footage . In the show, the reality TV star is visibly stressed about the situation amid her "Saturday Night Live" hosting debut. But in episode three, West offers her a gift to end the sex tape drama once and for all. To celebrate Kardashian's TV gig, West revealed that he left New York to fly all the way to Los Angeles and retrieve something for just for her. The gift was such a shock that a tearful Kardashian called her entire family into her "SNL" dressing room to see the gift.

Video games taught me I was colorblind but it's not always a friendly lesson

Almost 15 years ago, the way I looked at the world changed. Literally. I was playing Peggle , a popular puzzle video game about shooting balls at colored pegs when I realized I had a problem: The green and orange pegs looked almost identical to me.  After a bit of online research, some soul-searching, and a visit to the eye clinic, I was diagnosed with moderate red-green colorblindness.

It's a fascinating story about one of the greatest films of all time, but it's just not enough to sustain a 10-hour long miniseries. Strange pacing and unnecessary subplots bog down The Offer 's more enjoyable moments, turning what could have been a thrilling look at movie history into an uneven television show.

I mean, like, from the gut laughter. And it's like what does she do that makes everybody laugh? Everybody's laughing on her side of the wall and I apologise to my guys." Why were they having such a good time? Well, it all
