Ick, Piers Morgan has the Kardashions on
This does not make me want to tune in to his new show if these brainless pop culture guests are what he is going to have.

2. What exactly is it they do?
I mean they're all three of them quite amazingly gorgeous, but what made them famous? I'm completely baffled as to why I know them.

3. All I know is they were on some reality show
never saw it myself. Oh and they said they have some kind of fashion line.

I just hope they go away sooner rather than later so I don't have to hear about them in the media.

4. Ohhh, I see.
I don't watch any reality tv that doesn't involve cooking competitions or a great deal of explosives (go Mythbusters!)

14. THE answer (nothing to do with father) = the Reality TV show with STEP-father Olympian Bruce Jenner.
Edited on Fri Jan-28-11 07:41 AM by WinkyDink
THEN Kim (the gorgeous one) had a sex-tape become public.
And the publicity ran from there, just like it does with other celebrities and their families today.

At least Bruce was a great athlete. What about the nothing "Housewives" from hither and yon?

25. They are NOT famous because their dad defended OJ.
He did...but the reason they are famous is that Kim made a sex tape with "Ray J," her boyfriend at the time, the little brother of Brandy "Moesha" Norwood.

She claims it was stolen and released without her consent. I don't believe that for a minute.



THAT is why they have the reality show and all of the other stuff...NOT because of the OJ trial.

6. They had a 'famous' (infamous) father associated with OJ trial...
Edited on Fri Jan-28-11 12:44 AM by hlthe2b
Granted, I got rid of the tv and paid little attention to the TMZ's, ET's and People magazine type "news" for years... But, I'd have to be dead not to know how ubiquitous these women are. And for what?

Really... what the hell is their celebrity based on?

They've been on TV and in mags since 2007. Does it LOOK like they're losing steam?

And seem to have blown it.

19.  The Kardashians have been on TV since 2007. Their step-father is the great Bruce
Edited on Fri Jan-28-11 07:54 AM by WinkyDink
Jenner.
Kim's new perfume line is making her a fortune.

She opened a clothing boutique in NYC.
http://www.tmz.com/2010/11/29/kim-kardashian-dash-kourtney-khloe-black-friday-shopping-new-york-recession-boutique/

Khloe and Kourtney now have their own show.

The youngest sisters are models.

Why be proud of being ignorant of Pop culture? It isn't like we have Presidents (or candidates) who refrain from going on late-night talk shows (remember Clinton playing the sax on the Arsenio Hall Show?), The View, Oprah, etc.

20. The Kardashians are fluff. Famous for being Famous
Edited on Fri Jan-28-11 07:58 AM by LynneSin
I have to agree with the OP.

You ask a 20-something kid today who is Bruce Jenner they'd say he's the "Kardashian's step-father". Probably most don't know why else he's famous.

As for those other things, do you think the perfume would sell or that kid would be a model if it wasn't for that tacky TV show?

28. If you fill your head and time with pop culture it leaves less for real culture..
Or something else that's not mindless pap.

29. I don't think Piers is a very good interviewer.
Half of the interviews seem to be about himself and he's always interrupting people.
