Kourtney Kardashian SNAPS at Jimmy Kimmel on air for calling her Vegas wedding to Travis Barker a ‘fake marriage’
KOURTNEY Kardashian snapped at Jimmy Kimmel on Wednesday for calling her Las Vegas wedding to Travis Barker a “fake marriage”.
The 42-year-old hit back at the presenter in an awkward moment while appearing on Jimmy Kimmel Live! with her sisters.
Kourtney and Travis quietly tied the knot in a chapel on Sunday without a marriage license.
She reflected on the wild nuptials while appearing on Jimmy’s chat show with sisters Kim, Khloe and Kendall and their mom Kris Jenner.
Jimmy said: “I think you’re the Kardashian of the week this week because you went ahead and got fake married.
“But we didn’t know it was fake married.”

Kourtney cut in, saying, “Well, it’s not called fake married,” to which Jimmy shot back: “It is called that.”
Kourtney tried to explain: “There was no possibility to get a marriage license at that hour,” as Jimmy questioned: “In Las Vegas?”
She recalled challenging the marriage license bureau, saying: “I’m like, ‘Are you guys lying?’ It was 2am and they were like, ‘It opens at 8 o’clock.'”
Jimmy clarified: “So you wanted to get married for real but were unable to get married for real.”
Kourtney replied with an awkward laugh: “We just did it anyway, it’s what’s in the heart.”
The chat show host proceeded to tease the reality star about the intimate photos she shared from the $800 ceremony.
“You and Travis went to a wedding chapel in Las Vegas, is this a person or a stuffed thing. I figured it was Elvis, I just didn’t know if it was alive or not,” Jimmy quipped.
“By the way, all the photographers surrounding you all the time, this is the picture they got at this wedding!”
NOT SO SECRET WEDDING?
He then asked if the rest of the family knew about Kourtney’s secret wedding.
Kris revealed she and Khloe knew, and Khloe added: “I was on FaceTime.”
Looking irritated, Kim interjected: “I was sleeping.
“She put it in the group chat like ‘Oh hey guys, I got married last night.’ I woke up to a million texts like… what?”
Travis and Kourtney got married at a Las Vegas chapel with a handful of friends at 2am on Monday morning – hours after the rocker performed at the Grammys.
Kourtney and Travis’ friends were “shocked” by their nuptials, which they kept a surprise because they “wanted to say their vows alone without drama.”
UTTER SHOCK
An insider close to the stars exclusively told The Sun: “Everyone was shocked at the news. I’m sure her family will say they knew all about the plan but I wouldn’t be surprised if Kourtney kept them in the dark because she didn’t want the drama.”
The source revealed that Travis and Kourtney were also aware that Kim and her boyfriend Pete Davidson’s feud with Kanye West may have dampened the celebration.
Pictures have revealed how Kourtney stumbled and needed the help of her new “husband” Travis to stay upright as the couple arrived back at their hotel after the ceremony early Monday morning.
The newlyweds’ choice of wedding location was a world away from the usual luxury and glamor of the Kardashian family.
The Sun obtained exclusive photos and videos showing the venue, which featured a room with chandeliers and a white circular flower arch at the altar.
Another room in the chapel included heart-shaped flower balloons.
And in true Vegas fashion, the pair also had an Elvis Presley impersonator officiate the wedding.
