Uh Oh!
At this point, virtually everyone knows about the recent split between Kim Kardashian and Kris Humpries. After only 72 days of marriage, Kim has filed for divorce. I don't know what is worse, the fact that she hastily married and divorced a man she had only dated for months or the fact that she made millions from it.
In short, we've all been ripped off by one of the biggest fame whores in modern history. How many of us will continue to watch her show? How many of us will continue to buy her clothes or her perfume? How many of us will continue to follow her tweets? What has she done to deserve so much attention? She fucked some high-profile celebrities and "accidentally" had a pornographic video released.
Women like Kim Kardashian send a terrible and morally hazardous message to young women. Her actions within the past few years teach women that they don't have to have any real talent or do any hard work to be successful in life. She teaches women that a woman's value in this world is reducible to the men they sleep with. Furthermore, Kim's fame and fortune is a horrifying example of society's increasing willingness to reward bad behavior with lucrative endorsements for the sake of entertainment.
On a humorous note, the Taiwanese company NMA posted their account of the marriage and pending divorce, all in a one-minute video.
