Since Kim Kardashian's baby bump first began to show, the reality TV starlet has been getting a lot of flack for two things: her maternity style choices (or lack thereof) and her weight.
But Kardashian, 32, seems to be letting the criticism slide right off her back.

Danni Allen of Wheeling, Ill. nearly made 'Biggest Loser' history Monday when she took to the finale stage and beat Jeff Nichols by a single pound.
