NFL's Kareem Jackson -- I Paid $15k ... To Immortalize My Favorite Cleats

NFL player Kareem Jackson spares no expense for his feelings ... 'cause the Houston Texans star paid over $15k for a tiny blinged-out replica of his favorite pair of cleats ... and they're pretty freakin' awesome.

We spoke with the guys down at AJ's Jewelers in Miami who tell us Jackson made a special request to transform his Nike Vapor Cleats into a miniature charm he could rock around his neck.

That's when they sprung into action ... taking over three weeks to create a VVS diamond-encrusted, 3D version of the shoes ... and when all was said and done, the pieces were worth more than $15k.

FYI -- AJ's has also created some pretty sweet stuff for other NFL stars ... including iced-out mini-jerseys for guys like T.Y. Hilton and Michael Huff.

Being rich ... it actually, truly, doesn't suck.

Kris Jenner & North West -- Repping for Kanye ... You Gotta Start 'Em Young

Kris Jenner welcomed her granddaughter into the family biz ... of shameless promotion -- and North West's game is strong.

Kris was walking through Heathrow Airport in London with Kim and Kanye West's toddler over the weekend ... and had her decked out in a Yeezus tour jacket. Not to be outdone ... Grandma Jenner was wearing a pair of the new Yeezus shoes.

Bonus points to 21-month-old North for that classic Kanye-esque sneer. 

She's about four, five seconds from ... making serious bank just like the rest of her family.

NeNe Leakes -- Hey 'Fashion Police' ... I'm The Next Joan Rivers

NeNe Leakes is making a big play for "Fashion Police," but she doesn't want to replace Kelly Osbourne ... she wants to be the new Joan Rivers.

NeNe was leaving Mr. Chow in Bev Hills Monday night when she pitched herself to our photog, explaining she and Joan have the same MO. 

Here's the problem.  Saying she could be the next Joan is a shot at Kathy Griffin, ?who probably has a say on who gets the open spot. 

Chick feuds ... they're fun.
