Did you know that Barbara put the Kardashians (all of ’em) on her Most Fascinating People list this year? Well, back when she made the list, she didn’t realize how “fascinating” (and by “fascinating,” I mean “crummy, turncoat moneygrubbers”) they were – at least until Kim’s marriage to Kris Humphries imploded for entertainment purposes.
Barb was a guest on Dave Letterman‘s show last night, where she talked about feeling hoodwinked by the tumultuous trio and realized that she couldn’t trust them. If you can’t view the above video, here’s the crux of Barbara’s comments:
“They [the Kardashians] were the first ones we interviewed [for the Most Fascinating List] and we did them in September. We said, anything going to happen? ‘No no no, you can do it now because nothing’s going to happen.’ Then Kim gets married. Then Kourtney gets pregnant. Then Khloe’s moving to Dallas. You cannot trust the Kardashians.”
I’m just surprised that someone as well-spoken and tactile as Barbara WALTERS only just now realized that you can’t trust those who shit where they eat. Christ.
Forget the Lion King – it’s the Kardashians who are dangling at the bottom of the food chain.
I absolutely HATE the Kardashians, but Barbara Walters comments weren’t entirely fair. Kourtney announced her pregnancy at 9 weeks so it’s very possible she wasn’t even pregnant yet when this interview was done. At the very least, she was too early on in her pregnancy to know for sure. And back in September, no one knew if there even WOULD be an NBA season this year. Heck, even a month ago, things were still up in the air. Khloe couldn’t have possibly foreseen a trade. As for Kim, that one has no excuse. She filed for divorce a month later and I’m one of those who believes she probably either hoodwinked Kris Humphries (not very difficult; I don’t think all athletes are dumb but this guy just doesn’t strike me as an intellectual, if you catch my drift) or they made some sort of agreement to get married for press/money.
