I would love the money, big, close family, exciting life…but not the fame

I know it’s all pretty shallow and crap, who’s your favourite though?

None of them. They're vile. Sorry probably not the post for me Sad

FuckoffeeBeforeCoffee · 01/09/2023 20:52

Honestly, I get them mixed up.

NameChange96 · 01/09/2023 20:52

No thanks

continentallentil · 01/09/2023 20:52

Nah

They are interesting as a phenomenon for sure, but not as people.

cheezncrackers · 01/09/2023 20:53

God no! Bunch of narcissists, the worst of whom appears to be the mother. Vacuous in the extreme, all of them. Wouldn't mind their money though!

Cowlover89 · 01/09/2023 20:54

Fuck no

ZellyFitzgerald · 01/09/2023 20:56

I wouldn't want to be any of them.

Unintelligent and tacky.

fancyfrogs · 01/09/2023 20:57

Yes for their money ha. I'd happily have Kendall's figure

NashvilleQueen · 01/09/2023 21:00

The idea fills me with horror but I am imagining me with all of my thoughts, views and experiences suddenly being transported into one of their bodies and hating every moment.

They probably think they're amazing tho.

Seriously79 · 01/09/2023 21:01

If I could just have the bank balance and waist size then maybe 🤔

Crunchymum · 01/09/2023 21:06

Used to quite like Kourtney but can't stand her these days. Kendell seems like the only half decent one.

The mother is nothing but a high class pimp.

Shame they've all resorted to such extreme surgery.

They prove that money can't buy you good judgement in men.

Raising two daughters, these are not people I want them to admire or aspire to be like.

MillWood85 · 01/09/2023 21:14

I feel horribly sorry for the kids being raised by nannies because their mothers are too busy starving themselves and posting on Instagram. They don't stand a prayer, poor little sods.

All this drama today about Travis Barker about having to return home - it's very obvious that Kourtney was due at any moment and he should never have committed to a tour around her due dates. It was kicking right off on Twitter/X by the poor fans who'd bought hotel rooms, paid for flights and tickets and are now left high and dry.

Daisyhillsareblooming · 01/09/2023 21:15

No, proof money doesn’t bring you happiness!

Schoolunsafe · 01/09/2023 21:16

I can’t say I know anything about them but I’ve seen the occasional picture and they seem incredibly tacky? Who wants a fat bum? I just don’t get it.

Thepeopleversuswork · 01/09/2023 21:17

Fuck no.

Seashellies · 01/09/2023 21:18

I mean no i don't aspire to be like them at all, but I can see the appeal of the lifestyle for some. They've done well for having no real talents to be fair.

Proudgypsy · 01/09/2023 21:19

No absolutely not.

Lilithlogic · 01/09/2023 21:20

They are putting their children in the public eye to make money, so no I wouldn't. They are greedy with zero morals.

Sparklesocks · 01/09/2023 21:21

Only their money - nothing else!

Catusrusty · 01/09/2023 21:23

No I wouldn't want to be any of them.

With their privileged background they could have done anything, ANYTHING, with their lives.

They could have been doctors, or human rights lawyers or gone into government. What did they do? Completely and utterly subjugated themselves to the male gaze and made their money by flogging make up and skimpy clothing to young women. Their contribution to society is pouting at the camera, wearing very little and further entrenching patriarchy by ensuring men see women as sexy objects.

I mean Kim Kardashian became notorious because of her sex tape. Can you imagine selling your soul like that? That will be around forever for men to wank over. What if her kids see it? And they probably will. No amount of money is worth that. Even the tape wasn't an original idea, she did it because Paris Hilton gained such notoriety doing it.

Urrrrrrrgh they are the very worst kind of 'celebrity' and appalling role models too.

RJnomore1 · 01/09/2023 21:26

Oh good lord no, I can’t imagine anything worse. What sad lives they have.

nancy75 · 01/09/2023 21:27

Well I’ve got a large arse so I’m halfway there!
I have no interest in a Kardashian life, although I wouldn’t say no to the money

Whatsthepointofitallthen · 01/09/2023 21:28

Kris Jenner just seems to want more and more money…for what?! Haven’t they got enough

They have blood on their hands. Not only have they massively distorted beauty standards they've lied about their plastic surgeries. Convincing millions of young girls they too can be "slim thicc" by "killing themselves in the gym".

Shame on them.

Kourtney Kardashian recently came out with a product which is supposed to improve the taste of vaginas. I was appalled. Once again weaponising women's bodies and insecurities for profit. When is enough, enough?

Shame on them.

I'm not a fan of theirs and wouldn't ever choose to live my life like they do, but seems a bit harsh. Their brand is wild when you think about it but they do work hard to maintain it, they've done very well 'flogging' make up and clothes to people as well as making millions from social media posts. Skims dresses are fire so although not a fan of Kim I do own some. At the end of the day their 'careers' mean they can afford what they like- not just material possessions but they can travel where they want and experience what they want really. They don't ever have to worry about money and their children will have opportunities most won't. Sure At WhAt CoSt but really I can see the appeal of wanting that lifestyle even with the negatives to escape the mundane rat race and make the most of life- we only get one shot.
