    KhloJam Rides Again

    KhloJam rides again! Khloe Kardashian has landed in Space City with her $200 million man

    Houston, Khloe Kardashian has landed.

    Call them KhloJam, Hardashian, or whatever you'd like: The 31-year-old Keeping Up With the Kardashians star hopped a private jet and arrived in town Thursday for a visit with rumored beau, Houston Rockets NBA pro James Harden. Kardashian is reportedly in the Bayou City for the weekend to celebrate Harden's 26th birthday, which is August 26, on the early side.

    The reality TV celeb with larger than life ass-ets and the successful All-Star basketball player were spotted in West Houston Thursday afternoon, cruising in Harden’s white Rolls Royce… and livin' large the Chipotle way.

    TMZ reports the couple hit up the national chain for lunch, keeping it low-carb with an order of several chicken bowls, even splurging for extra guac. While Kardashian's reality film crew doesn't seem to be in tow this trip, that didn't make the duo any less conspicuous. Images of the famous pair quickly began popping up on social media thanks to burrito enthusiasts and excited fans posting up a storm.

    Maybe next time, Harden will spring for a meal at Whataburger, which gave him a shout-out on Twitter saying, “.@JHarden13 There's more than 50 Whataburgers in Houston if you need a great date spot.”

    The youngest Kardashian sister stirred up a frenzy again with a late-night shopping trip at an H-E-B supermarket near Royal Oaks neighborhood. A fan posted the image below on Instagram along with the caption, "Met @khloekardashiantonight at HEB!!! Soooo freakin sweet & down to earth. We actually had a nice girl chat. We're definitely friends now! Hehe. Love her!! btw, she's even more gorgeous in person!!!”

    Rumors of the Kardashian/Harden romance first heated up in July when they were photographed looking cozy together in Las Vegas. There have been several sightings in Los Angeles since then, including last weekend at a birthday blowout for Kardashian's half-sister, Kylie Jenner, who turned 18.

    Ms. Kardashian is officially single again after a long, drawn out divorce from former pro-baller Lamar Odom that was finalized last month. Harden also has a newly inked deal. It was announced yesterday that he’s officially signed on to represent Adidas for a cool $200 million.

    Happy birthday to you, James Harden.

    If you spot the couple around Houston this weekend, let us know in the comments section below.

    Images of the famous pair quickly began popping up on social media thanks to burrito enthusiasts and excited fans posting up a storm.

    How Texans' income compares to the rest of the U.S. in 2025

    Texans aren't quite making the national median income, but they're doing better than people in many other states.

    Hardworking Texans are making less money per year than the national median, a new WalletHub study has revealed.

    The just-released report, "States Where People Have the Highest Income," found Texas workers are making an adjusted median annual income of $73,718, compared to the national median of $81,000 per year.

    The study examined the average annual income of the top five percent, the average income of the bottom 20 percent, and the median income for all residents in all 50 states and the District of Columbia. Income was adjusted for the cost of living.

    Although individual Texans are not quite making the national median, the state as a whole ranked 11th for "highest" incomes, moving up one spot from its 2024 ranking. Virginia claimed the No. 1 spot, followed by New Jersey (No. 2) and New York (No. 3). (As a note, the earnings of each state's top five percent were double weighted, meaning they counted twice as much as the median and bottom categories.)

    Based on WalletHub's findings, the top five percent of Texans are making more than $504,000 per year, adjusted for cost of living. Meanwhile, the bottom 20 percent of Texas residents are making only an adjusted $17,461 annually.

    In a major city like Houston, income disparities may appear to be even wider than other Texas cities. Earning a "comfortable" wage in Houston now costs $15,000 more than it did in 2024, and being a middle-class earner means making a minimum of $41,754 a year and as much as $125,274.

    Yet Houston still ranks as one of the wealthiest cities in America with 18 billionaires and about 82,000 millionaires calling the city home. Even Houston's suburbs are attracting more high-earning households than many other U.S. cities.

    "The highest-earning 10 percent of individuals in the United States earn over 12 times more than those in the lowest-earning 10 percent, based on the latest Census data," said WalletHub analyst Chip Lupo. "By measuring the income of various percentiles against a state's median income, we can better identify where income disparities are more prevalent, which could help us better understand why residents of certain states struggle more to make ends meet."

    The top 10 states with residents earning the highest income are:

    • No. 1 – Virginia
    • No. 2 – New Jersey
    • No. 3 – New York
    • No. 4 – Connecticut
    • No. 5 – Washington
    • No. 6 – Utah
    • No. 7 – Minnesota
    • No. 8 – Colorado
    • No. 9 – Illinois
    • No. 10 – Massachusetts
