In her new cover story in Rolling Stone magazine, Kim Kardashian dishes on her mysterious brother Rob’s recent absence from the spotlight — so un-Kardashianlike, actually avoiding the public eye — and she attributes his reclusive behavior to his penchant for weed, beer, video games and the weight he’s put on in recent years.

“It’s not that mysterious, what’s happening with Rob,” Kardashian told Rolling Stone. “He has gained weight. He feels uncomfortable being on the show, and that’s OK.
“Do I think he smokes weed, drinks beer, hangs out and plays video games with his friends all day long? Yes.”
Kim Kardashian — described by Rolling Stone as a “reality-TV juggernaut, selfie queen, actress, model, mother, brand ambassador, Internet-breaker, entrepreneur and video game subject — nearly broke the Internet again with her latest heavy-on-the-cleavage magazine cover.
And she also has something to tell all the haters: “I believe that I am so much smarter than I’m portrayed.”
So there you go.
So while Rob Kardashian is indulging in marijuana and TV, his sister’s popular reality TV show has actually driven one of the world’s best-known musicians away from weed. Guess what world-famous musician gave up marijuana because “Keeping Up with The Kardashians” freaked him out?
“I’d put the kids to bed, go upstairs and smoke a bit of pot. But then I’d get stuck in front of the Kardashians on TV for 45 minutes. And it freaked me out. I was like, ‘I’m never doing this ever again.’ It’s definitely not for me.”
