She said to Parade.com: "The paparazzi frenzy and the media frenzy that is happening right now is really kind of out of control. For me, it's very important to keep my personal life personal."

"It's odd sometimes when people look at you like a zoo animal when you're at a restaurant eating dinner. People are staring at you and pulling out their camera phones."

"I'm just a human being and sometimes a messy eater - so it's really unpleasant to be scrutinized like that."


More pop...Kim Kardashian has said she is "so excited" about becoming an aunt next month. The 28-year-old reality star will become an aunt when her older sister Kourtney, 30, gives birth to a baby boy in December.

With just a month to go until the due date, Kim said to In Touch: "I'm so excited! I want to buy him a whole room at my house, so I can watch him, and Kourtney can sleep over and feel comfortable."
