I do not usually watch or listen to the tabloid stuff, but this one has my attention. I think it is a very confused young woman that just wants to get married.

Called it long before the wedding, although I had given her 2 months. I was close. My friends and I had little bets going on about it. None of us saw it lasting long.

I doubted it would last. And I'm reminded by a tweet by George Takei: Kim Kardashian files for divorce after 72 days. Another example of how same-sex marriage is destroying the sanctity of the very institution.

It was a scam by a piece of scum.

I hope that was a sarcastic comment. Was it?

(A smilie attesting to the facetiousness of the comment would have been more appropriate, I think. There are a lot of GLBT people on this forum who might take this the wrong way if your sarcasm isn't made clear. I'm sorry. I just felt I had to say something.)

Really, I do not give a crap. She was the one who married someone who she did not know for very long in the first place .

What does this woman do? I mean she's "famous because she's on TV." Why is she on TV? "Because she's famous." I hate people who are famous for doing nothing, everyone from Bianca Jagger, to Bebe Buell, to (dare I say it) Jackie Kennedy-Onassis.

Accomplish something and I might think about these people. If you get famous for fucking famous men, or because your mother fucked famous men, and I don't get the whole infatuation with these people.

What, if anything, have any of this family done? Anything of worth, value, helping others? Actual entertainment (I mean, making a movie, writing music, anything?)

I have wondered the same thing! I don't really follow celebrities though or watch much tv.

I think she basically scammed everyone and just wanted to make some headlines again.... her mother's book comes out in a couple days. Pfft.

What in the name of heaven could this woman have to say of interest? "I fucked some famous men and gave birth to some moderately attractive children who make poor life choices."

Uh, no thanks.

LOL, I know right?

I'm also wondering why people like Snooki have published books?
What wisdom can I gain from that?

I mean, don't get me wrong. I read smut books for entertainment, but I like it intellectual please.

I don't think she's confused. I think she knew exactly what she was doing. It was a publicity stunt. Everything for her wedding was pretty much given to her as product placement. Kris Humphries is a complete moron and needs to grow up, really quickly.

That pre-nup would't have been so ironclad if her intention to divorce him wasn't there to begin with.

To be honest I don't care, she Is one among many divorced Americans. What makes her any different.

Her father was one of the attorneys defending OJ Simpson.

She's known for a leaked sex tape with Brandy Norwood's brother Ray J.

I actually was told this by my significant other, because I asked the same thing.

Yes, George Takei (who played Sulu on Star Trek) was being sarcastic. He is gay, and he and his partner were the first gay couple to apply for a marriage license in West Hollywood after same sex marriage was legalized.

I didn't know Snooki could write! I'm surprised. (She probably hired a ghost writer.)

Oh, OK. I should have known that. (He's on The Big Bang Theory all the time.)

It's all good, now. I just couldn't place George Takei at first.

Her father was one of the attorneys defending OJ Simpson. I did not know that. Less respect than before, I didn't realize it was possible.

Thanks, I had no idea.

Still, do either of those actually make you a "celebrity?" I mean, she didn't actually DO anything, did she? (I have no idea who Brandy Norwood or his brother Ray are.)

She has a ton of business investments and was able to bank on the fact that the whole world thinks her family knows whether or not OJ killed Nicole. Robert Kardarshian and OJ Simpson were really close friends before that whole thing went down. Their kids played together, Nicole and Kris (Kim's mother) were best friends. And now Kris is married to Bruce Jenner---Olympic Champion and motivational speaker.

Kim Kardashian is famous because she's hot and people love to look at her.

Kim is famous because she has a big butt and men want to watch her sex tape. Women made her more famous by trying to figure out why men wanted to watch her sex tape. OK, men want to f*&ck her because of the sex tape. Did we hear of her prior to the tape? No. Hmmmmm.....

Her dad defended OJ. Then she became friends with Paris Hilton or someone and they were all like "holy shit, look at her ass and boobs!" and it went from there..

To that, I have another quote. This time by Confucius: He who takes offence when none is intended is a fool. He who takes offence when offence is intended is a bigger fool.

Yes, Mr Takei (who is gay) was being sarcastic.

I rarely get "offended." I wasn't when I posted. Many people simply don't know the reference. I couldn't place Takei at all.

I rarely take "offense" at such things, but I was concerned about some people on the board who may have been hurt and might not have spoken up and said something.

Plus, if you read the entire thread, someone already explained it and it was laughed about.

I can assure you, I am far from a fool.

She's continued to be famous because she knows how to work a crowd. She's not a flash in the pan and the only scandalous thing in her life is that sex tape. Now that she's in her 30's, she's turned out to be a real sweetheart. I don't understand why people dog on famous people who are famous just for being famous.

But..... what does she do? I don't have any respect for people who get famous for... being famous, or for fucking famous men.

What is her purpose in our society? What does she contribute? Is she an entertainer? (No, not unless one is involved in the gossip mill.) Does she have a talent? (If so, I'm not aware of it.) What does she do?

I simply don't see the point of the infatuation with this silly woman. IF she accomplishes something (shit, have her write a sex toy review!) then I'll rethink my criticism of her. Until then, she's a waste of band width as far as I'm concerned.

People should DO things with their lives. It bothers me when people get famous and rich for DOING nothing.

There are SO many good people on this planet, who help others, entertain, work for good causes, and make something of their lives. Contributing to the fame of a waste of space makes no sense to me. We don't know her in any way. Why all the fuss?
