Who could blame Kim Kardashian for being peeved at Katie Couric? The newswoman made a nasty comment about the Kardashians to In Touch, then later sent a gift to baby North West as if she and Kim were BFFs. Clearly realizing her faux pas, Katie issued an apology, but if you ask me, it's too little too late.

When asked why she thought the reality TV clan was so famous, she quipped, "I don't understand -- why are they so famous? I think it's mostly teenage girls that are interested." Ouch. She has some nerve.

I’m not saying she’s wrong for her opinion -- many of us marvel at the Kardashian fame and how the hell they attained it by basically doing nothing but shop and bitch about each other. It's actually quite fascinating. But you can’t diss someone PUBLICLY and then pretend to be their buddy. Who does Katie think she is -- A Real Housewife of New Jersey?

In response to the mini scandal, Katie sent a statement to E! News:

I was responding to a reporter's question, and explaining how I'm intrigued by the public's fascination with her family. I didn't mean to hurt her feelings. The gift is genuine, and I'm happy for Kim and Kanye.

Oh please! That is not an apology. That's getting caught with egg on your face and trying to weasel your way out of it. If she doesn't like or respect the girl -- that's her right. It's a free country and she's entitled to her opinion. But don't ass kiss the next day. That just makes you look bad, Katie. Really bad. Kim should mail that insincere gift back to sender.

Do you think Katie's apology was sincere?

Robert Pattinson Finally Drops Nasty Habit Thanks to Kristen Stewart Split

Judging from the headlines about him throwing lavish Gatsby parties and dating Riley Keough, Robert Pattinson seems to be doing amazingly well in the wake of his split from Kristen Stewart. The proof: The guy has officially stopped smoking! A source tells HollywoodLife.com, "Rob has finally quit smoking for good. And he feels and looks healthier than ever. Working out has helped him tremendously with regard to quitting smoking. The two just don’t go hand-in-hand. Rob is now addicted to exercising and feeling good." Awesome!

We all saw the photos of RPattz and KStew together, smoking up a nervous storm. The two clearly shared the nasty habit, and when you're a couple of smokers, it can be even harder to quit. Maybe for Rob, breaking up with Kristen was one step closer to being able to break it off with cigarettes?

After all, Kristen has no interest in quitting anytime soon! (She was recently photographed smoking during a break on the set of her new film Camp X-Ray.) In fact, it's painfully clear there are better, healthier moves she could be making post-split.

But whatever! Rob's obviously got the right idea. As I'm sure he's been told by his trainer, Harley Pasternak (who has also worked with Hilary Duff, John Mayer, Jessica Simpson, etc.), there's no way you can truly get fit as a smoker. By ditching the death sticks, he seems to be thoroughly focused on bolstering his physical -- as well as mental and emotional -- well-being. The source says Rob's "determined to get into the best shape of his life." I believe it! And that'll only stand to help him get ahead professionally and personally.

Are you happy to hear Rob has ditched the cigs? Do you think the split may have helped him quit?
