Kourtney and Kim Take New York

KIM KARDSHIAN: KRIS HUMPHRIES GOT OUT OF THE MARRIAGE JUST IN TIME

Kim Kardashian hoped her series Kourtney and Kim Take New York, filmed right after her marriage, would reveal that she was an innocent victim who accidentally married a monster. After their honeymoon, Kim insisted she and Kris Humphries move into a NY hotel suite with her sister and boyfriend Scott Disick and their baby. Kris was immediately uncomfortable living with “The Bickersons” and their cute but noisy baby whose playroom was right outside their bedroom door. Did Kim care? No. Kim planned all sorts of nightlife events for her TV show and Kris worried about concentrating on his training. Again, Kim made no attempt to compromise. To his credit, he didn’t indulge her nonsense and refused to let her push him around. His midwestern normality certainly clashed with her high profile frivolity and rampant self-indulgence. This marriage WAS doomed because they didn’t try living together before they got married. Kris escaped with his decency intact.

KRIS JENNER TAKES FULL CREDIT FOR THE KARDASHIAN KONGLOMERATE

Brace yourself. The Kardashian empire last year earned 65 million dollars – more than Angelina Jolie, Tom Cruise, or Sandra Bullock. The Hollywood Reporter credits Kris Jenner for the family’s incredible success and Kris admits that initially SHE was inspired by the Hilton family (who must be green with envy about now.) The family splits a six figure check for each episode of their several reality shows, but this just serves as a marketing platform or “commercial” for their related efforts: the Dash stores, books, fragrances, skin care, diet products, a line for Sears, etc – next up are slot machines for The Mirage Hotel. Kris says “Who knew it would be this profitable? I should have had more kids!”

SCOTT DISICK: IT PAYS TO CONSORT WITH THE KARDASHIANS

Scott Disick was very smart to have baby Mason with Kourtney Kardashian. He may never have to really “work” again (if he ever did.) His connection to the money machine family has proved hugely profitable as is illustrated by his new Lamborghini. So far he’s appeared as a cad on three of the Kardashian reality shows – “Keeping Up With The Kardashians,” “Kourthey And Khloe Take Miami,” and “Kourtney And Kim Take New York.” Viewers love to hate him.
