Chyna is claiming that the sisters lied to E! executives in order to scuttle a second season of the 2016 reality show 'Rob & Chyna.'
She said she and Rob Kardashian celebrated when they found out that the way was cleared for a second season of the show, although defense attorney Michael G. The claim involves what Chyna’s court papers call “humiliating and degrading” photos that Rob Kardashian allegedly posted of Chyna in July 2017. Chyna testified today that Rob owned the gun and that, one night in December 2016, she took it from a dresser. UPDATED with latest: Blac Chyna agreed today that the second season of Rob & Chyna could not proceed after she obtained a temporary restraining order against her former fiancé and co-star, Rob Kardashian, in July 2017. Kardashian sued Chyna in September 2017, alleging she tried to strangle him with a phone charging cord and twice pointed a gun at his head, threatening to kill him one night. On Thursday, she said that although her signature was on the document, she did not put it there.
In 2017, Blac Chyna filed a $100 million defamation lawsuit against the “powerful, vindictive” Kardashians, accusing them of killing her E! reality show, ...
The papers also state that Chyna’s restraining order against Rob made it “physically impossible” for her to perform in the series, and Chyna’s agreement with E! said the network had the “option and not the obligation” to include Chyna in additional seasons. Meanwhile, the Kardashians’ legal team maintained Chyna had attacked Rob at Kylie’s house, and that while the Kardashians wanted to spare Rob from further abuse, they ultimately weren’t behind the cancellation. According to a source for “ Page Six” inside the courtroom on Tuesday, they appeared “visibly annoyed” after a potential juror said he couldn’t remain impartial to the case because he had seen Kim’s sex tape and would be replaying it “over and over” in his head if selected. According to Rolling Stone, Ciani also claimed the Kardashian-Jenners “had a family vote” to cancel season two of Rob & Chyna. Things came to a head in July 2017, when Rob posted revenge porn of Chyna to his Instagram. (The social-media platform temporarily booted him as a result.) The two welcomed their daughter, Dream, in November 2016, and documented the ups and downs of their relationship on Rob & Chyna, which aired on E! — the network formerly home to Keeping Up With the Kardashians — from September to December of 2016. In court documents obtained by Vulture, the Kardashians insisted that Chyna had indeed “violently attacked” Rob, and that they had acted out of concern for his well-being. Chyna also filed a separate lawsuit centered around revenge-porn allegations against Rob, which is scheduled to go to trial in early May, according to Rolling Stone. (Rob filed to dismiss the lawsuit earlier this year, saying he wanted to focus on his co-parenting relationship with Chyna.) While the show’s premiere enjoyed record-high cable viewership in 2016, it was panned by critics, who called it “the saddest show on television.” From the start, it spelled drama for the Kardashian-Jenner family, as it overlapped with Kylie Jenner’s on-and-off relationship with the rapper Tyga, Chyna’s ex and father of her son, King. Rob and Chyna went on to hit relationship milestones at warp speed — in public, at least — announcing their engagement three months later. On the heels of their big, splashy return to reality TV, the Kardashians are in a Los Angeles courtroom this week to finally face a $100 million defamation lawsuit filed by Blac Chyna in 2017.
Blac Chyna broke down in tears as attorney Michael Rhodes cross-examined her Thursday morning at her trial against the Kardashian-Jenner family.
She claims the famous family used their power to tarnish her reputation and prevent financial opportunities. “It was not loaded,” she testified. That’s my signature but I didn’t sign it.” “I didn’t sign it. He also shared video of his daughter Dream’s mother in bed with another man and wrote, “Hahahaha Chyna just sent me this video saying happy 4th of July what a crazy person. Rob posted nudes of me on the internet.

BC started crying as she replied ... "It was the only way I could stop him from posting pictures of me on the internet." He posted nudes of my entire body." Chyna continued crying as she told the jury ... "I was already public. I wanted everyone to hear my side of the story. The Kardashian's lawyer introduced BC's restraining order filing to the jury, which attached the Chyna nudes Rob posted on the web, and asked her if the filing was a publicity stunt. Blac Chyna shed tears on the witness stand while testifying in court about her ex Rob Kardashian posting nude photos of her on social media.
Nearly five years after Blac Chyna, born Angela White, filed a lawsuit against the entire Kardashian family, she is getting her day in court.
During his opening statement, Rhodes showed texts allegedly sent in February 2017, shortly after Chyna and Rob broke up. "It was a joke, to him, too. Per E! News, Chyna's lawyer Lynne Cianni denied a statement Kris Jenner made to Bunim/Murray about Chyna strangling Rob with an iPhone cord.
During her ongoing trial with the Kardashian family, Blac Chyna said her wrapping a cord around Rob Kardashian's throat and grabbing his gun in a 2016 ...
All four Kardashians are defendants in the case and claim that Chyna's "displays of anger and aggression" made them worry for their son and brother. "I smashed a gingerbread house because I was really upset," she told the judge during her testimony. "I came up behind him, doing that jokingly to get his attention," she testified of wrapping the cord around his throat while he was ignoring her and playing video games.
Chyna's lawsuit alleges her show was canceled and her TV career ruined after Kris Jenner told people that Chyna had physically abused her son, Rob Kardashian.
“It was exciting, we were throwing money and having fun, being silly,” Chyna said. Rob Kardashian was prone to bouts of jealousy, she said. “Then I damaged a TV.” “Nope,” she said. “Nope,” Chyna said. “It was a joke,” she said.

She is first to testify in a case in which all four of the defendants are also expected to give evidence. “Yes,” she said. “I wouldn’t have signed this,” she said. “Correct, everything to my face was all good,” Chyna said. “Not to my face.” “Correct,” she answered.

Chyna is set to return to the stand Thursday afternoon. “Yes,” she said. “I wouldn't have signed this,” she said. She repeatedly said she didn't understand when Rhodes showed her a document that appeared to have her signature on it agreeing to receive a $100,000 “kill fee” for the cancellation of “Rob & Chyna,” at a time when she previously said she still believed the show would get a second season. “Not to my face.” “Correct,” she answered.
Blac Chyna filed a $100-million lawsuit against the Kardashians in 2017. Now the model and the reality TV stars are facing off in court.
The day after that, she alleged that a jealous Rob Kardashian swiped her phone, which led her to smash a gingerbread house and a TV and move out of their home. Though Rob Kardashian was Chyna’s way into the Kardashian empire, he is not a defendant in the current case. However, Chyna’s attorney contended that her client did not significantly harm Rob Kardashian, citing unaired footage from the series. Rob Kardashian, 35, is the youngest child and only son of Kardashian “momager” Kris Jenner and late O.J. Simpson defense attorney Robert Kardashian. He will be tried separately following the defamation and tortious interference trial currently underway. Jury selection in the case began Monday in Los Angeles, where potential jurors aired their grievances about the Kardashians and the brand of reality TV they represent. Chyna t estified Wednesday that she wrapped a cord around her then-fiancé's neck that night and pointed an unloaded gun at him. In court on Wednesday, Rhodes continued his argument that the alleged assault led to the couple’s breakup, and that’s why E! producers canceled “Rob & Chyna” — not because of the family’s machinations but because the show was about their relationship. Ciani claimed that Kris Jenner told the head of “Rob & Chyna” that Chyna beat Rob Kardashian with a pole and strangled him with the cord of a phone charger that left marks on his neck. The prosecution argued Wednesday that Kris Jenner falsely accused Chyna of physically assaulting Rob Kardashian as part of a coordinated effort to prevent “Rob & Chyna” from moving forward on E! Chyna originally named Rob Kardashian as the lead defendant in the lawsuit, but the differences in her allegations against him — such as revenge porn — prompted a judge in 2020 to sever that part of the case. The Kardashian-Jenner women stand accused of sabotaging “Rob & Chyna” to further their own interests, resulting in a loss of income and celebrity clout for Chyna.
Kris Jenner testified in Los Angeles court on Thursday that Blac Chyna threatened to kill daughter Kylie Jenner amid tension with Rob Kardashian and Tyga.
She claims the famous family used their power to tarnish her reputation and prevent financial opportunities after they allegedly “conspired” to cancel the second season of “Rob & Chyna” – which they’ve rebutted. “It’s in a trust, earning interest.” She added, “I just wanted my son to be happy. “There was just a lot of drama … and I’m used to that in my family.” They had a rocky relationship from the start … but I love second chances and I wanted them to win.” “It wasn’t that I was not concerned.
While being questioned in Los Angeles Superior Court on Thursday, model argued that her attorney left her out of contract negiotiatons.
Rhodes maintained that Rob & Chyna was canceled by E! because the couple called off their engagement and split for good in February 2017. Rhodes' alleged that Kris Jenner's boyfriend, Corey Gamble, had to break up a "screaming and yelling" argument between the two by physically getting between them at Kylie Jenner's house. While being questioned by Kardashian-Jenner attorney Michael Rhodes, Chyna was asked about a talent agreement she signed and the "kill fee" she received.
Kris Jenner took the stand on the fourth day of Blac Chyna's $108 million defamation lawsuit against the Kardashian-Jenner family.
"I just wanted my son to be happy, I wanted them to be happy and I just wanted them to win. "Kylie was dragged into it because she was dating Tyga and that's where the aggression came from," Jenner told the court. Jenner said she never called the police on Chyna when she heard those stories and "we just kept it internal." "I didn't know where it was going, it was a rocky relationship from the start," Jenner said. She said she was happy for Chyna and Rob before things spiraled out of control on December 15, 2016. Kylie dated Tyga between 2014 and 2017, and Rob Kardashian and Chyna dated and were engaged between 2016 and 2017.
The Kardashian-Jenner family matriarch spoke about Chyna's alleged threats against her youngest daughter in Los Angeles Superior Court on Thursday.
Rhodes maintained that Rob & Chyna was canceled by E! because the couple called off their engagement and split for good in February 2017. The parents of 5-year-old daughter Dream starred in the series for one season. "There was just a lot of drama, which I'm used to in my family."
“Yes,” Ciani said. “Your daughter Kylie Jenner.” After a tense exchange over Kris' prior deposition testimony in the long-running lawsuit, it quickly became ...
“If [Chyna] made Rob happy, then I was happy,” she said. “Well, I wouldn’t put it like that,” Kris said. And we were happy she was pregnant.” “We were just in it for them to win. “It’s not real fresh in my head. If the lawyer could convince jurors of that, it would undermine Kris’ claims she was pulling for Rob and Chyna’s union to succeed until a blowout fight in mid-December 2016 purportedly caused her to fear for her son’s safety.
Blac Chyna was asked about her E! contracts and personal finances in a grueling second day of cross-examination by a lawyer for the Kardashian family.
"I made a mistake," Chyna insisted on the stand Thursday of the 2016 date. "I smashed a gingerbread house because I was really upset" by Rob Kardashian's jealous accusations, she told jurors. "Just go through his phone," she told the lawyer. The agreement paid Chyna a $100,000 kill fee upon the series' demise. But Chyna acknowledged under Rhodes' questioning Thursday that a February 21, 2017, agreement with the E! Network contained her signature. Confronted about the document Thursday, Chyna told jurors she couldn't remember seeing or signing it.
Blac Chyna took the witness stand for the third day in the trial for her multimillion dollar lawsuit against the Kardashian clan.
Did you have any reason to believe any of my clients had anything to do with these reports?" "I wouldn't have signed this," she said. "Not to my face." "Yes," she said. She repeatedly said she didn't understand when Rhodes showed her a document that appeared to have her signature on it agreeing to receive a $100,000 "kill fee" for the cancellation of "Rob & Chyna," at a time when she previously said she still believed the show would get a second season. "Correct," she answered.
Kris Jenner said in court on Thursday that she was happy when she heard her son Rob Kardashian was engaged to his new girlfriend Blac Chyna, despite stories ...
Chyna said that she was joking with her fiance when she wrapped a phone cord around his neck and grabbed his unloaded gun off a bedside table. “I was extremely upset because they were extremely upset.” The trial then turned to the key day of December 15, 2016, when Chyna and Rob had a fight that would lead to her moving out of their home and the end of their relationship. Asked whether she had prevented footage dealing with her son's depression from being shown because it was “too dark," Kris said she couldn't recall. “They had a rocky relationship from the start, and I just wanted really a win for them.” Kylie has attended the trial all week but was not present on Thursday.
Rob Kardashian alleged that his ex-girlfriend had previously 'inflicted severe injury' on him and that he feared for his life.
He also alleged that she pointed a gun at him, but Chyna insisted that this incident was merely "playful." In court this week, Rob alleged that his ex-girlfriend had previously "inflicted severe injury " on him and he "feared for [his] life" as he claimed she tried to choke him with an iPhone charging cord, and allegedly assaulted him with a metal pole. Blac Chyna has denied accepting a $100,000 kill fee' after “Rob & Chyna” was axed.
Chyna — who is currently seeking millions of dollars in damages from the Kardashian family — left the courtroom in tears on Thursday and appeared “visibly ...
She said that the Kardashian family turned on her after the breakup and accused them of “slut-shaming her on social media.” At this point, Chyna became “visibly upset,” shedding tears at the witness stand. “She was being consoled by her male friend as she walked into a private room at the courthouse.” ET reported that Kris, Kim, and Khloé watched on as Chyna broke down. They claimed that a second season of the show would have been impossible to make, given that Chyna and Rob couldn’t film together or contact one another, as per the restraining order. The first installment of Rob & Chyna rated highly, with roughly 1.4 million viewers tuning in to chart their whirlwind romance from the start.
Blac Chyna claims Kris Jenner, Kim Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian and Kylie Jenner influenced the end of "Rob & Chyna." Now they are battling in court.
When Kris Jenner took the stand on April 21, she said that Chyna made death threats to her youngest daughter, Kylie Jenner, but she didn't present evidence of it other than word of mouth. "I don't remember the exact circumstance," Kris told Chyna's attorney. Rob Kardashian was prone to bouts of jealousy, Chyna claimed during her testimony. And at one point when he was on FaceTime with a friend, she picked up an unloaded gun that Rob Kardashian kept on his dresser, she said. "And she brought in her three daughters to help accomplish that." "I came up behind him, doing that jokingly," she testified.
The Blac Chyna vs. The Kardashians trial began April 18 with jury selection. Here's everything you need to know.
Blac Chyna got involved with the KarJenner universe around 2014, when Kylie Jenner began dating her ex Tyga. Chyna began a romantic relationship with Rob Kardashian in 2016, and they got engaged after three months. Kim Kardashian, Khloé Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, and Kris Jenner appeared in court in Los Angeles on Monday, April 18, to witness the jury selection. On April 18, Blac Chyna's case against the Kardashian family commenced with jury selection.
Kris Jenner testified that she was happy when she heard her son Rob Kardashian was engaged to then-girlfriend Blac Chyna.
Chyna testified that she was joking with her fiance when she wrapped a phone cord around his neck and grabbed his unloaded gun off a nightstand. “I was extremely upset because they were extremely upset.” Asked whether she had prevented footage dealing with her son’s depression from being shown because it was “too dark,” Jenner said she couldn’t recall. There were all kinds of things going on,” Kris Jenner said. Blac Chyna filed a $100-million lawsuit against the Kardashians in 2017. “They had a rocky relationship from the start, and I just wanted really a win for them.”
An emotional Kris Jenner took the stand Friday and testified that she was "traumatized" by Blac Chyna pulling a gun on her son, Rob Kardashian, in 2016.
When asked by Ciani if she knew the Season 2 of “Rob & Chyna” was canceled, Kris said the show just was never picked up. “One day he was OK, the next day he was a mess again. “The only things he has written to me are Mother’s Day cards,” Kris said. “She [Chyna] tried to put a gun to his [Rob’s] head,” the momager, 66, said while on the verge of tears. “I think I meant to say she beat the s–t out of his face. … It’s, ‘Oh, s–t! You got the s–t slapped out of you.’ It’s a figure of speech.
“They had an option that they didn't exercise,” Jenner said on the stand, explaining to the jury that as her son's manager, she would have been privy to any ...
Chyna’s lawyer said that Khloé and Kylie wrote a note to E! “demanding” cancellation of the show. Jenkins — who was co-president of Bunim Murray Productions, the production company behind the “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” franchise — testified remotely, giving the jury a sense of the inner-workings of reality TV and sharing how “Rob & Chyna” came to be. “They were not speaking,” Jenkins testified of Kardashian and Chyna. “They wanted nothing to do with each other, they were not living with each other. Texts between Jenner and the showrunner from “Rob & Chyna” were displayed by Chyna’s lawyer. Chyna, in full glam, made the courtroom her runway, dressed in a glamorous white suit, supported by a small entourage of friends sitting behind her in the gallery with one individual holding her handbag, as she sat up at the plaintiff’s table, next to her attorney. When asked about contacting law enforcement, Jenner said she did not call the police because she felt if the fight escalated, her personal security could handle things, and they didn’t want to call the cops on Chyna because they were “trying to figure it out as a family.” My daughter was traumatized for the rest of her life,” Jenner said through tears, as Kim Kardashian looked on in a stoic fashion. Aside from Jenner testifying, reality TV executive Jeff Jenkins, who launched “Keeping Up With the Kardashians,” also testified. The trial, which began on Monday and is expected to last 10 days, has been messy, with personal matters being aired in front of a jury. That altercation was the matter that essentially killed the couple’s show, according to testimony from Jenner and TV execs behind the series. She has accused Jenner — the grandmother of her and Kardashian’s five-year-old daughter, Dream — of being the ringleader who facilitated a master plan to axe Chyna from E!’s airwaves because the famous family had a vendetta against her. But Jenner says there was nothing to cancel because the show was never renewed.
The TV personality was "a little shaken" Thursday when she was presented with a binder containing leaked explicit images of herself during the trial.
Back in 2017, Rob posted the explicit images of Chyna on Instagram following a dispute in which he claimed she disrespected him. The seven-episode series "Rob & Chyna," which premiered on September 11, 2016, followed their romantic relationship and chronicled Chyna's pregnancy with their first child together. They two were starring in an E! reality show together before the year was out. She was being consoled by her male friend as she walked into a private room at the courthouse." The photos were not shown to the jury or anyone else, but Chyna was a little shaken by them and almost broke down, according to Insider's courts reporter Azmi Haroun. But Rhodes said in court Thursday that he presented the binder just so he could ask Chyna questions about the revenge porn case, which she filed with a previous lawyer, asking the TV personality if she brought that case and later spoke about it on Good Morning America to seek publicity.Chyna, however, replied, "You think I'm supposed to not let anything happen?
While in court, Kris Jenner testified that the alleged 2016 argument between Blac Chyna and Rob Kardashian was "complete chaos"
I am a caretaker," Kris said. I was traumatized." "I am a mom. Continuing, Kris claimed that Rob told her Chyna was "hitting him with a metal pole." "He was very upset and disheveled." The interaction allegedly involved Chyna holding an unloaded gun — a moment she has since claimed in court was her "being funny."
Kris Jenner became emotional Friday while recalling a volatile 2016 argument she heard about between her son Rob Kardashian and his then-girlfriend Blac ...
She said she had nothing to do with the network deciding to not pick up the reality show for a second season. But after Gamble pulled them apart and asked Rob Kardashian to leave, she was told that Chyna smashed a chair on the windshield of her son’s car. “He had a gun put at his head, and she was held at gunpoint and thrown into a bathtub. I was hopeful that it would be OK. That’s why I didn’t call (the police).” Chyna testified that she was joking with her fiance when she wrapped a phone cord around his neck and grabbed his unloaded gun off a nightstand. It was scary,” said Jenner, the 66-year-old “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” matriarch.
