Kris Jenner is at it again!

This time she’s using the birth of KimYe’s baby girl to steal the spotlight of the Daytime Emmy Awards from none other than former reality star Bethenny Frankel.

We know Kris has a history of using her daughters’ fame to get what she wants, but we didn’t think she’d take it this far.

Kim’s little one arrived just 24 hours before Jenner hit the red carpet at the 40th annual Daytime Emmy Awards, causing complete chaos at the Beverly Hilton when she arrived. “She stole everyone’s thunder — including Bethenny Frankel,” says our insider.

Once Jenner arrived, the spotlight was snatched from Frankel immediately and moved directly to Jenner.

“They both wanted the attention for press for their upcoming shows, but once Kris arrived all hell broke loose,” said the source. “People were screaming questions at her about Kim and the baby and she was just smiling away. Once she arrived everyone else was invisible.”

“Kris and Bethenny both have talk shows debuting on Fox in September, and this was the opportunity for both ladies to tease them in front of the TV community by presenting at the Emmy awards,” a source tells Confidenti@l. “However, when it comes to self-promotion, Kris has been at it for years. She made everyone there look like amateurs. She may be the most powerful woman in Hollywood right now.”

Both Kris Jenner and Bethenny Frankel’s new shows are produced by FOX. Jenner’s debuts July 15 for a six-week trial run, while Frankel’s debuts Sept. 9 and airs weekdays this fall. Unlike Jenner, Frankel has been planning/mapping out her show for months!

From hair to makeup, wardrobe to presenters, Frankel truly thought nothing would get in the way of her spotlight. What she didn’t think of was the one thing that could…the birth of KimYe’s baby girl.

If both ladies are successful, there’s sure to be a rivalry for ratings; so stay tuned!
