Kardashian Fatigue '11: NY Daily News asks media to boycott Kim Kardashian

If Kim does something and tweets about it, but no one is around to read it, does she still exist?



Kris Humphries, you’re the lucky one.

Now, if only the rest of us poor souls trapped in the reality TV universe could get a quickie divorce from all things Kim Kardashian. Wouldn’t that be nice!

But is it even possible to have a world where images of Kim Kardashian’s flawless, fake smile aren’t as common as cell phones?

I say it is. We should boycott Kim the Heartbreaker. We can do it, people! We have the power to make this money-grubbing airhead go away. Be strong!



Change the channel the instant “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” comes on. You’ll find no reality there.

If you see her powdered mug on a magazine cover here, there or everywhere, fight the urge to pick it up.

If you follow her on Twitter, quick! Unfollow her!

Don’t buy clothing from the Kardashian Kollection — certainly not that dreadful striped single-shoulder dress!

And, whatever you do, definitely don’t drop your hard-earned dough on her perfume: “Love — Limited Edition.” (BTW, if that’s not the most ironic name for the fragrance of a bride who couldn’t make it to Day 73 in her marriage, I don’t know what is.)

Let’s go back to the Fourth of July on one of the thousand lakes of Minnesota. Lake Minnewashta was the one, and it’s where the handsome New Jersey Nets forward brought his ample-bosomed bride-to-be home to meet his family. Always a big moment, and Kris was already feeling nervous.

Before Kim came to town, the biggest threat was keeping dreaded zebra mussels out of the lake.

Humphries tweeted, “How do I convince Kim that Minnesota is better than L.A.?”

We all know how that worked out. And now Lake Minnewashta will be Kim-free (at least if they follow the directions above).

Oh, how I envy them!

Now, as the good people of that Minnesota town try to defeat the zebra mussel, we in the media have to write the knee-jerk Kim-did-this stories. Imagine the headlines:

“Should Kim give the ring back? (Or did she pay for it herself?)”

“Should Kris and Kim give the gifts back?” (Those peeved guests may have an argument.)

“Should they donate to charity some of the $17.9 million they got for those E! and People exclusives?”

“Is she still in love with Reggie Bush?”

“Was the whole wedding just a publicity ploy?”

And through everything all-about-Kim that is to come, Kardashian, Inc. will be spinning it. Because Curvy Kim’s media-mastermind momager, Kris Jenner, makes Dina Lohan and all previous stage mothers look like soccer moms.

True, she forgot to give her daughters singing or piano lessons, as Alicia Keys’ single mom did, so now Kim has no talent beyond the aesthetic. And that doesn’t even matter. It’s all about marketing.

In fact, the last straw for Kardashian reportedly came when Humphries dared to hire his own publicist!!?? But, quickly kicked to the bench as Humphries was, he will be no match against Jenner’s well-oiled machine. He is chum in the water. It’s going to be worse than when (and if) the L.A. Lakers play the Nets on Dec. 18.

But Kim did one thing right — at least she didn’t have Humphries’ baby. Or did she actually miss a chance to promote herself? Think about how much cheese exclusive pics of that kid would have fetched, not to mention the reality TV spinoff possibilities.

Several years ago, celebrities went corporate, branding themselves like Jell-O. In September, KK reached 10 million Twitter followers. It’s an instant market of the infinite, and she’s got the (bundles of) endorsement contracts
to prove it.

If Kim tweets that she just LOVES the turquoise Zinnia Slingbacks on Shoedazzle, thousands of women will buy them without even knowing that she owns Shoedazzle.

The reality is Kim Kardashian is a narcissist for the ages. Just watch Kris and Kim’s “wedding” video. When she kisses her new, younger husband as the TV cameras roll for the voyeurs, she looks as if she doesn’t want to smear her lip gloss (no doubt her brand, LipFusion). There’s zero chemistry. Dude must feel so played.

But what better person to peddle your merch than the Queen of Narcissism? You know, the person who says, “Enough about me. What do YOU think of my hair?”

It’s all about them. Narcissists crave attention from anybody and everybody all the time. So, let’s join forces to snub her.

Andy Warhol once said, “Making money is art, and working is art and good business is the best art.” But at least Warhol could draw.

i always wonder who follows ashton kutcher
nat 2nd-Nov-2011 08:53 am (UTC)
I think I still have him blocked from way back when, during the "get 1,000,000 people to block Ashton Kutcher" movement.
stellar_kar 2nd-Nov-2011 08:01 am (UTC)
I don't even have a twitter but I know 2 people who follow her :/
frankenmutt 2nd-Nov-2011 08:12 am (UTC)
I follow comedians that retweet her and her sisters and it's fucking hysterical.
coulditbesatan 2nd-Nov-2011 08:57 am (UTC)
I don't, but I used to follow Khloe on Facebook because I like her. I got tired of being called "dolls" all the damn time, though.
habibty 2nd-Nov-2011 10:53 am (UTC)
i follow her because i meet her irl a few times through mutual friends. she's not as bad as people make her out to be..
xsnickerzzx 2nd-Nov-2011 12:29 pm (UTC)
i do because i liked the show. i follow the others too.
withoutyoursmil 2nd-Nov-2011 02:11 pm (UTC)
i do, and tbh i have no idea why i'm going to unfollow her rn lol
aleisha_xo 2nd-Nov-2011 02:39 pm (UTC)
I'm pretty sure I do but I haven't been on twitter in years. If a made a new one today I def. wouldn't be lol
sprywonderdog 2nd-Nov-2011 02:43 pm (UTC)
I only follow Scott. No explanation necessary.
in_styles 2nd-Nov-2011 11:05 pm (UTC)
I do, she seems sweet imo. She's a little vain, though.
motorwill 3rd-Nov-2011 01:18 am (UTC)
I follow her so I can do zingers, same as here.

I'd never watch any of these people's shows, and am assuming they don't make much $$ from ONTD and twitter.
snnat17 3rd-Nov-2011 02:17 am (UTC)
I followed her earlier idk why tbh but I unfollowed her once I got annoyed of her paid and annoying tweets a couple of months later
kurtvonnegut 2nd-Nov-2011 07:45 am (UTC)
okay but why is all the blame going on kim? kris did it for attention just as much. lol @ acting like he's innocent
stellar_kar 2nd-Nov-2011 08:01 am (UTC)
because she's does everything for attention?
austosaurus 2nd-Nov-2011 08:06 am (UTC)
you must be drunk
kurtvonnegut 2nd-Nov-2011 08:06 am (UTC)
no shit. my point is that all these articles are acting like kim blindsided kris and he was completely unaware this was for attention
mistyraven 2nd-Nov-2011 08:13 am (UTC)
Tbh IA that he should get as much blame as her, but (as far as I've seen) all the media focus is on her, and she seemed to be the "star" of the whole wedding thing, and she initiated the divorce (as far as we know).

Also I don't think anyone cares about him enough to post about him if it's not also about Kim.
cherriesjubilei 2nd-Nov-2011 08:13 am (UTC)
idk about him being innocent but at least when this has become old news I will never have to hear about him again. The Kardashians on the other hand will never stop doing shit for attention.
clockspiders 2nd-Nov-2011 08:40 am (UTC)
I find Kris pretty terrifying to be honest.
Whenever I think about how ridiculous and pushy my parents can be, I just think back to KK and it settles my nerves a little.
threeatatimejay 2nd-Nov-2011 03:02 pm (UTC)
LOL.

No one knew or cared about this person. No one expected her to stay married to his No1curr ass. It was clearly a publicity stunt made by someone who tried to steal her previous man's thunder after the Super Bowl.

Kim is a known attention whore, and the greater offender.

Notice she apparently dumped him after he got his own publicity agent. She had no intention of sharing any spotlight, and the narcissist wanted to continue to make it about her.

I don't care about his innocence or guilt; he's a nobody.

I just am glad this person jumped the shark and will hopefully be going into the land of irrelevancy sooner rather than later.

Where is he if he did it for attention? Right now would be a good time to milk this thing yet he's made one statement and now he's nowhere to be found.

laser hair removal to get rid of her baby hairs, botox, nosejob, the occasional lip injections, and something with her cheeks. not sure what it is, but it's whatever her mom had done to her cheeks
pwrpuffgrl 2nd-Nov-2011 09:35 pm (UTC)
I understand hair removal in places where hair shouldn't be but I don't get removing EVERY single hair on your body, especially pubic hair. Pubic hair is there to protect your lady parts and removing it completely it's the opposite.

Plus a male friend of mine said he once slept with a girl that had no pubic hair and he felt she was having sex with an 11 year old, I kinda get him, women with no pubic hair are like girls and it's creepy.

/weird rant
hershelwalker 2nd-Nov-2011 07:56 am (UTC)
threaded hairline, nose job, face/eyelift, cheek implants.
la_geni 2nd-Nov-2011 07:57 am (UTC)
Fillers and botox are the obvious answers. You can tell because her face is super smooth now and her cheeks are very prominent. I'm on the fence about the nose job. Also, she's much lighter now.
likegunfire 2nd-Nov-2011 07:58 am (UTC)
everything
fontainebleau 2nd-Nov-2011 08:20 am (UTC)
For me, it's that her nose seems shorter. Like there's too much space between her nose and mouth now and she looks like an alien.

My mom said it the other day and I was like, DEAR GOD SHE'S RIGHT!:

"Paris was less of an attention whore than Kim Kardashian."

So true...
reallyupthere 2nd-Nov-2011 03:48 pm (UTC)
Right? Paris was funny at least.
phnix_daft_mode 2nd-Nov-2011 05:57 pm (UTC)
Sometimes, I find myself missing her.

It kinda bugs me when Kim is all like "BUT I'M A ROLE MODEL!" when she's famous for having a big ass and a sex tape. At least Paris didn't give a fuck.
love_allure 2nd-Nov-2011 07:46 am (UTC)
woah i remember when she looked like that.
apafc 2nd-Nov-2011 07:52 am (UTC)
i thought she was the girl from pussycat dolls when she was paris friend
love_allure 2nd-Nov-2011 08:00 am (UTC)
lol remember the time when she was just known as her friend? and now it's KIM KIM KIM and paris the forgotten. how times have changed.


and lol do you mean you thought she was nicole scherzinger on x-factor? her career change is amazeballs too. girl from a honky girl-group reality show to a a pretty popular solo singer.
onyxobsidian 2nd-Nov-2011 07:46 am (UTC)
Doesn't the NY Times have more important things to worry about that the Kardashains? Shouldn't they not be talking about them at all?
rivadavia 2nd-Nov-2011 07:48 am (UTC)
they wrote an article about stanning once, the ny times are as reputable as my pop pop
trikc 2nd-Nov-2011 11:26 am (UTC)
what are you talking about? It's an exceptionally respected publication. And not the paper that wrote this article. The Daily News did.

She fucking would for the publicity

But i'd love it if she were knocked up and no one gave a flying fuck.
