Khloé's Got Thoughts About Chris Appleton and She Said Them Out Loud
Kilian Melloy READ TIME: 2 MIN.
Celebrity hairstylist Chris Appleton is used to inspiring thirst, but on a recent episode of "The Kardashians" the lustful vibes were coming from an unexpected quarter – none other than Khloé Kardashian who suggested the two of them might have some fun hitting on guys on Grindr before baring her soul to the camera and admitting that she would "fuck the shit" out of him.
"He's so hot," the reality star gushed, People Magazine relayed. "He's such a vibe. I don't know if he'd fuck me, but I would fuck him."
The two aren't a power couple, but they do talk frankly with each other (and the camera) on the show. People noted that last month Appleton made teasing remarks about "get[ting] Khloe laid" on an upcoming trip to Italy.
"You're obsessed with knowing that I haven't had sex," People quoted Khloé as firing back at the 41-year-old hunk.
Appleton was famously married for a brief time to out actor Lukas Gage – a six-month marriage that Gage has called a "manic episode" – but before that he was partnered for nine years with a woman in his native England with whom he had two children. It was only at age 26 that Appleton decided to embrace authenticity – and he never looked back.
"It sounds cheesy," Appleton said last year on Bethenny Frankel's podcast, "Just B," "but there's honestly so much power in living authentically and being authentically yourself."
Added Appleton: "I think once I let go of all the guilt and shame of it all, my whole life changed. I moved to America, it was amazing how much grew and changed."
