Another day, another starlet enduring the wrath of Shanna Moakler.

It seems the former Miss USA, who made headlines a while back when she allegedly punched Paris Hilton in the face during a run-in at a Hollywood hot spot, is now unleashing her fury on Kim Kardashian.

Kim called in to Ryan Seacrest's KIIS-FM morning show today to confirm reports that there was a little catfight between her and the onetime beauty queen at a Malibu party hosted by Carmen Electra this weekend.

"There was a little altercation. Carmen and I were just kind of hanging out. Shanna came over and kind of just said a few things and threw a drink," says Kim. "I was just a little bit caught off guard. It kind of hit my leg."

While the exact reason behind the purported fluid toss remains unclear, Kim thinks Shanna believes that she and Shanna's ex, Travis Barker, had become more than friends when Kim modeled for Travis' Famous Stars and Straps clothing line a year and a half ago. But Kim insists there was no funny business going on.

"I think she's trying to make it into something it's not."

(Listen to the entire interview.)

Kim does admit, however, that she may have added fuel to the fire when the paparazzi caught her out and about recently wearing a Famous Stars and Straps T-shirt, which she thinks Shanna may have viewed as a slap in the face.

"I feel bad about it, and I feel like I infuriated Shanna for that. I do definitely want to apologize."

While we certainly hope Shanna accepts Kim's words of remorse, something tells us this beef is far from over.
