Harry Styles Told to Ignore 'Pushy' Kris Jenner While Dating Kendall; Can Singer Avoid 'Kardashian Curse?'
Harry Styles has been urged to steer clear of Kardashian matriarch Kris Jenner as he continues to date her daughter Kendall.
The One Direction singer, 19, began dating the reality TV star, 18, in November after being introduced by their managers at an "X Factor" recording and they have been inseparable ever since. Friends of Styles reportedly fear that Kris, who is renowned for her ambitious money-making tactics, could ultimately jeopardize his successful music career by pressuring him into business ventures with Kendall.
"Kris will push them to do joint business ventures. She'll make sure she benefits off them," a source told Star magazine.
"People who date the Kardashians end up cursed," another insider revealed. "Harry is loved by people around the world and his friends don't want Kris to sink her teeth into him."
Showbiz critics believe that anyone who dates a Kardashian-Jenner is it risk of falling victim to what has been dubbed the "kardashian curse," whereby one's career suffers after getting involved with the fame-hungry family, according to the HuffingtonPost. Fans have pointed out the likes of Reggie Bush, Kris Humphries, Kanye West and Lamar Odom whose careers declined in one way or another after they began dating members of the E! star family.
The report comes days after Kendall's brother Brody warned the British pop star that the model may ultimately break his heart.
"I hate to tell you this, but Kendall will be doing the heartbreaking," Brody told the New York Daily News. "I'm sure she's having a fun time with him. She has a very level head, great head on her shoulders. But they are both so young."
Jenner, who is the younger sister of famed reality star Kim Kardashian, was first photographed with Styles during a dinner date at Hollywood restaurant Craigs in November. Since then, the pair has spent time together in various cities including London and New York and Brody believes they are a good match.
"It sounds like a match made in heaven," Brody said. "That's what it sounds like… She is at the age where dating is a lot of fun."
Prior to Kendall, Styles was linked to pop star Taylor Swift, however the pair split after just 65-days of dating.
Styles is said to be very fond of Kendall, who is the younger sister of famed reality TV star Kim Kardashian.
"They're in that stage where they're obsessed with each other and talk 30 times a day," a source told In Touch magazine.
