It has recently been reported that Khloé Kardashian and French Montana are no longer dating after months of using each other for fame.

According to New York Daily News, the highly publicized romantic relationship between the reality star and the Moroccan emcee turned out to be nothing but a staged publicity stunt for the cameras.

The matriarch of the notorious clan Kris Jenner apparently worked out a deal with the "I Ain't Worried About Nothin" hitmaker and paid him for his guest appearance on "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" by the E! network.

"The way that the Kardashians' [show] is set up is very unusual. It's the only show that I know of where a producer can say, 'Here's the cast and this is what they're getting paid,'" a source revealed. "Usually to add a cast member to a show, you'd have to fire a cast member to keep the budget balanced. But in this case, Kris just offered French Montana a check to be in the show."

"He's expensive, and some people at E! just don't think he's worth the money," the source added. "I've heard execs moaning about it, saying, 'We're just paying so much for him!'"

During his recent interview with Billboard, the "Don't Panic" rapper somewhat insinuated the real reason why he was dating Kardashian, acknowledging the extra attention he was getting from the media, thanks to her. "I want to capitalize on it," he said. "I'll get a fan base from everywhere. I just hope I'll be able to connect with everything that's going on."

Also, it seemed like Khloé Kardashian was not shocked at all by French Montana's previous comment, as she tweeted: "It's amusing to me that Y'all think I don't see it. I was the first one to see it. I just don't care."
