Tyson continued: "I’m like, ‘You did not want no smoke. I had on my tuxedo. I would have undone my tie and got into it if you wanted to, but you didn’t. I think you didn’t realize how big I was.”

“She's not bothered at all about it, no one in her circle appears to care or believe it. Even if it is true, I doubt she'll even be upset at this point.”

Kim has also been rumored to be hooked up with CNN's Van Jones, 52, but an insider told HollywoodLife said that "she’s in a good place."
