Big surprise, Kim Kardashian got paid a lot of money to host a party, and the Internet is blowin’ up about it.
According to multiple reports, the reality star rang in 2012 in Sin City at TAO, which is her new year’s tradition. TAO is reportedly paying Kardashian $600,000 for a series of appearances, which began on New Year’s Eve. Kardashian’s rep has denied the estimated amount but refused to disclose how much she will be earning. And she’s got bangs now? Which may or may not be clip-in extensions? C’mon guys, THEY’RE BANGS. You cut them, they grow out, you decided whether to cut them again. At least, that’s what normal people do.
Am I the only person who would like the Kardashians to become irrelevant in 2012? Is anyone surprised that she got paid a fat chunk of money to literally do nothing? More importantly, why isn’t TAO paying me $600,000 to host glamourous parties for them?

im jealous of her life
guest
You’re not alone; I’d like to see her fade out of popularity this year.
guest
I actually like Kim, but I think she’ll start to fade soon.
guest
She looks like a cheap hooker…
guest
I’d consider shooting her in the skull if it meant not having to hear about her anymore.
guest
Annoying or not, publicity stunts or not, the fact remains that she’s an attractive and unspeakably rich, successful business woman. Kudos to her for that. At least she has actually done something to get where she’s at, unlike certain other celebrities *coughparishiltoncough*
I don’t understand why people get so violently aggressive toward her. Her life is none of our business. All this hype wouldn’t exist if people weren’t so goddamned nosy about other peoples’ lives in the first place. I have better things to do than get angry at how other people spend their money; like make my own money to spend how I please.

Dear Kardashians,
as a late Christmas present to me, please get lost & never come into the spotlight again. You’ve not done anything to get so much money, and you blow it on silly things such as a 72-day wedding.
Sincerely, Jordan.

@DrakonFyre@xanga - her daddy was OJ simpson’s lawyer.. that’s how she’s known.. through her daddy just like paris hilton is known through her daddy.. so they’re both on the same category pretty much..
guest
@CrAdLe2daGrAve@xanga - That’s not all she’s done though. Whereas Paris Hilton is a total airhead, Kardashian actually has brains. She may be conniving and manipulative, but she is actively doing something about her fortune.
guest
I wish I could get paid to have parties!
guest
these ho’s are attention whores..
guest
@DrakonFyre@xanga - which is….? make sex tapes? have a lavish wedding and only have her marriage last 72 days?
guest
I can’t trash her for this… it’s the club who are the stupid ones here.
For the rest of her so-called “career”, however…..
guest
She’s absolutely annoying and I’d really like if people stopped giving her so much attention. Sure she’s beautiful but that’s about it. After that fake, materialistic, diva-like and spoiled can describe her.

@CrAdLe2daGrAve@xanga - Get it right. She’s known because of her sex tape with Ray J.
guest
@ipink_berry@xanga - She’s not beautiful; she’s plastic.
guest
@xTHATnena@xanga - Eeeek! I’ve never really realized how plastic her face looks until you put it next to her looking a hot mess lol. Point def proven.
guest
@CrAdLe2daGrAve@xanga - If she was milking the already recognizable name of say, Axe and peddling teenage sex appeal people would call it an advertisement gig and think nothing of it, especially if she went to college to learn how to do it. Instead, she milks the already recognizable Kardashian name and peddles an image she cultivated into a sellable product without any formal training. People gripe about the smell of Axe, too. But do people say that Axe’s marketing team is living off their employer? Not in the sense that people claim the Kardashian women live off their dad’s name, that’s for sure.
guest
@breakingthepath@xanga - apparently you didn’t hear when kris jenner was thinking about changing her last name jenner back to “kardashian for the brand” ookkk then
guest
@Kittyluve@xanga - she made profit out of that shit too! even after she sued the people selling it.. ridiculous!
guest
I like to think of myself as a normal person, and I use clip-in bangs, too.
If your hair is longer than, like, shoulder length… growing out bangs is a ridiculous, multi-year task. Who wants that when you could just clip them in for the night and go back to your regularly scheduled awesome haircut the next day?
guest
There are people who would probably pay for Kardashian shit. Literal shit. Hell, they basically are :/
guest
@DrakonFyre@xanga - Seriously? She’s worked hard and people need to mind their own business? People paying attention to her life is how she got so rich. “Reality” TV, her “wedding” and all the other publicity stunts. All she does to get attention gets her paid millions.
guest
You fellas need to watch the first ten minutes of this video in the link below:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QRQjF1IPgKQ
The video illustrates one of the core problems with the culture of today, so watch it.
I’m The Chosen One, and I approve this message.
guest
@dream_guru5@xanga - My point stands that people need to mind their own damn business. Reality TV would flop if people cared more about their own fucking lives than the business and doings of everyone else.
guest
The only way for the Kardashians to become irrelevant is when everyone stop talking about them, be it praising or bashing, just stop and ignore them all together. It’s that simple.
guest
do you realize by writing this post you’re sort of going against what you want?
it’s doesn’t really bother me what other people do with their money; if people want to spend money to attend those parties and hence make the club pay her a fat sum of money, so be it.
guest
@zzzzzulavalle@xanga - heck yeah….i totally agree!
i want to be their sisters.
guest
@superGchik@xanga - ugh sameee, kourtney is my favorite. KKTNY and keeping up are my guilty pleasures
sunflower / 251 posts
@CrAdLe2daGrAve@xanga - Haha didn’t know that. The initial money came from the oj simpson case, but the thing that really got her noticed was that video. I guess she made the best out of it.
sunflower / 327 posts
I want another ban. Lets start with forever.
guest
@zzzzzulavalle@xanga - same
guest
@DrakonFyre@xanga - The funny thing is, even those of us who try to mind our own businesses get sucked in with the non boring nature of those fake shows. I don’t watch Reality TV but I do read blogs like this and I’ll flip through an article but I don’t think I’ve bought or done anything that she’d get paid for. I thought you were saying she was actually talented and did something for that money, besides being the daughter of a “high class” gold digger and daughter of OJs lawyer. I’d have to say I agree with what you said.
guest
@dream_guru5@xanga - Talented may not be the right word. But no one can deny that she does have the conniving mind to turn everything into her favour. Bad publicity is still publicity, and the Kardashians have shown that they are willing to use it all to splash their name everywhere. I wasn’t saying that she’s a golden girl, but she does know how to manipulate and use people like us to get her name out. It’s clearly worked, or we wouldn’t be having these posts and discussions on lovelyish. =D
guest
i want her to fade out of my daily scouring of the internet. she needs to be done.
and i don’t give a crap what she was given. if some company thought it was a good idea to throw money out the window then go the hell ahead. i won’t be there.
guest
@DrakonFyre@xanga - I have no idea why I even read these. In all honesty, she makes me physically sick, I could NEVER watch her shows without getting bored or nauseous, she’s not attractive in my opinion and I’d rather be dirt poor than rich for the reasons she is. Somehow I still read the articles. It didn’t help that they were on the cover of Glamour and Marie Claire so I was forced into seeing them. I wish the magazines wouldn’t stoop to such low levels of pushing them down our throats, nobody should care about the damn 72 hour or day marriage.
guest
Not going to lie, I get sick and tired of reading about how much money she makes for pointless crap. I’d love 600 k for a silly party! There’s a lot of good that money could be used for. Personally, I think most celebrities get paid way too much for what they do. But, such is life…
guest
@CrAdLe2daGrAve@xanga - yup she wanted a good chunk of the profits.. she’s a money hungry attention whore.. one of these days she’s going to deflate.. and i mean literally.. and then what will she have?

Keep talking about her, she’s still making money and she’s not losing any sleep from how many haters there are out there. Her family is smart as hell for building a multimillion dollar empire. Money is free, you just need to know how to get it for free, and they do it well.
guest
With just one party, kim could pay off 6x the amount of my student loans. i would throw a party for 600,000 dollars and I am an introvert, lol
guest
Yes, I want then all to disappear in 2012. Here’s how you should start: STOP FUCKING WRITING ABOUT THEM. LET US FORGET. Thank you.
guest
If you want people to stop paying attention to her, you got to start by not making posts on xanga about her. The ridiculousness of the reason to her popularity is what makes people notice her too!
hydrangea / 86 posts
You must not want her to go away THAT much considering the fact you’re blogging about her. That’s why she’s famous; people always have something to say.
guest
Agreed, but I also agree with those who have said that blogging about her is counter-productive to the goal of making her disappear. Just saying.
@twenty_twenty_surgery@datingish - If the KKK’s had a shred of decency, the SHOULD lose sleep over the way they make money, and the insane amounts of it they make for no…fucking…reason…what…so…ever. Of course, they’re dirty rotten scoundrels, so they have no conscience. Sadly, you seem to be ok with that.
The fact that these broads are famous for nothing is a sad indictment of the kind of world we live in.
guest
This seems a bit silly to post about. But none the less, i think she looks pretty hot in that picture.
guest
people in america get paid millions for a lot less. don’t be so naive.
guest
lets face it… she not gonna fade…
shes smart with money obviously
and she knwos what shes doing.
guest
@CrAdLe2daGrAve@xanga - I don’t watch the show… I’m guessing there’s no way in hell she actually owned up to that being part of it. That would just be way too transparent even for them. Was that the mom or one of the kids, by the way?
guest
@breakingthepath@xanga - the mom ‘cuz back in the day before they were famous no apparent reason.. bruce jenner her husband was famous in the olympics but the kardashians overshadow it now so people just started calling her kris kardashian so she was comtemplating on changing it back from jenner to kardashian just for the brand..
guest
@CrAdLe2daGrAve@xanga - I heard it was because the dad was some lawyer or whatever. Either way, a brand doesn’t stay well known simply by existing. It takes marketing and a decent product, and they have so far delivered.
guest
@breakingthepath@xanga - they’re famous ‘cuz their dad was oj simpson’s lawyer.. their brand is bullshit anyways..
guest
@CrAdLe2daGrAve@xanga - So by your reckoning it should take even more talent to convince someone that it’s worth 600k to book them for a night. You’re making my point for me…
daisy / 568 posts
@Unstoppable_Inner_Strength@xanga - I’m definitely okay that they have no conscience or enough decency to lose sleep over the ridiculous amount of money they make by doing nothing. Who am I to hate on them for being smart enough to do NOTHING on television and make shit loads of money? They do it to entertain people and they do it well. And they are pretty smart with their money, but that’s just my opinion.
guest
@breakingthepath@xanga - great.. i really don’t giva ish about the kardashians as much as you do.. i ain’t a loser.. what are they doing for me?! i don’t buy none of their so call brand nor do i watch their show because it doesn’t benefit me it only benefits them.. what are they doing for you except making money off you.. can you book a night club and get paid 600k?! didn’t think so..
guest
@CrAdLe2daGrAve@xanga - For me, they were little more than good fodder for an assignment… let’s just say that it’s easier for me to write six pages with substance about why the Krazies actually earn their paychecks than about why Jersey Shore is bad for morality. Not that I actually look up to them or even watch their rubbish, but they make their millions minus most of the skankdom that everyone else seems to need in order to get that much attention, and in a culture where supposedly shock factor dictates who’s on top that’s a bit of a feat. I’m not a fan of reality tv in general and love my foreign films and world music, but I get that at least Kim and her sibs are nothing to be embarrassed about… or not having the same starting assets for that matter. After some schooling, I probably could do advertising and product design like they do, and so could a lot of people. Your inability to argue is embarrassing, though, and I hope you learn how to for your sake because it gets used for a lot more than just making people sputter until they start insulting people and pointing out that they’re not millionaires
guest
@breakingthepath@xanga - and yet you insulted me by saying i have the inability to argue.. bitch please.. and you wrote a whole novel.. i didn’t even bother to read except the last part.. it look like it was going to bore me to tears.. it’s called a comment for a reason.. i don’t have to agree what you say but that’s your opinion and it shows you’re a loser since you know so much about jersey whores and kardashians whores.. that are famous for their sex tapes.. you wanna be like them go for it.. more power to you.. if it takes being a whore then good for you.. i ain’t wasting my time on ignorance more.. since you care so much about the kardashians tell it to someone who cares..
