Kim Kardashian shows off a new braided hairstyle... perhaps it's for her music video?

By DAILY MAIL REPORTER

New hairstyle: Kim Kardashian showed off her new braided hair as she headed to the gym in Los Angeles yesterday


She's known for her swishy blow-dried hair, designer clothes and manicured good looks.

But Kim Kardashian headed in a brand new style direction for a trip to the gym yesterday, with her hair braided in cornrows.

Perhaps Kim was attempting to add a slightly cooler edge to her look.



She is rumoured to be busy recording her first pop single, with Kanye West said to feature in the accompanying Hype West-directed video.

Whatever she's doing, Kim has been struggling to keep it to herself.

'OMG u guys have no idea what I'm doing today! You are gonna DIE!!!!,' she tweeted.

This was quickly followed by: 'What an amazing day!!! I'm finished for today...but we have a few more to go!'

And she later teased: 'Feels so good to overcome a fear!'

Adding to the rumours, Kanye was spotted helping Kim celebrate her 30th birthday onboard a yacht in New York in October before she headed to Chicago to attend the screening of his short film Runway.

While Kim is forging a music career, her sister Khloe Kardashian and her LA Lakers star husband Lamar Odom are set to start work on their long-rumoured Newlyweds-type reality show.

'It shoots in the spring,' a source told this week's Us magazine.

Another source told the publication that the series will have the same atmosphere as Bravo's Bethenny Getting Married: 'They're so cute, playing off one another.'

But fans will be seeing a little less of one member of the Kardashian family.


Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick shop in Miami today; the couple have reportedly asked for $5,000 per episode for their son Mason to appear in their reality show


Though Scott Disick has told friends he and Kourtney won't let son Mason appear on Kourtney & Kim Take New York so he can have a 'normal' life, a source tells Us magazine that isn't the real reason.

Disick demanded $5,000 an episode for the 12-month-old! 'E! offered $1,000, but he played hardball. E! was like, "Are you out of your mind?"'

Another friend added: 'He bungled negotiations, so you won't see Mason at all.'
