The Kardashian Marriage Circus Continues With Both Wanting the Other to Admit to Fraud

In the "why in the hell are these people still relevant" file, Kim Kardashian and Kris Humphries are doing the old dance around of ending the marriage, with both wanting to admit that the other committed fraud. Humphries wants Kim Kardashian to admit that the marriage was a fraud, she never intended it to be a real marriage. As if we needed some official confession. Why don't we have someone confess that the sky is blue why we are at it. Kim Kardashian wants a confession about Kris Humphries defrauding her about the living convictions, where he apparently wanted her to move to Minnesota after he promised her that he would live with her in Hollywood, or something.

The fact that this is still dragging on months and months later really is tiring. It does give us people with blogs something to rant about, but let's face it, there is a great deal of pain and suffering going on in the world as well. And really when it all boils down to it, the marriages of celebrities for the vast majority are utter shams to begin with. It is all a publicity measure. Not all of it, but let's be honest. It is all about presenting a facade of something that you're not, to get people interested in you. There is a great deal of phoniness in show businesses.

The marriages of celebrities are a scam, the marriages of non-celebrities are a scam as well all things considered. But we don't have to hear about those. We do have to hear about the fact that Kim Kardashian obviously used her marriage as a publicity stunt. Of course she'd never admit that, but anyone with a few functioning brain cells right between that underused organ we call a mind would have figured that out.

And her fifteen minutes of fame are long since up. The only way the name Kardashian holds any relevance anyway is a punchline to a joke. Not only a punchline to a joke that has long since ceased being funny. This latest round of ugliness is going to lead to a long and costly court battle between Kris Humphries and Kim Kardashian.

You knew there was trouble when she wouldn't take her husbands name. You can still use the Kardashian name for your branding, there are a lot of people out there who use stage names for branding. But the circus continues and we just watch, unable to turn ourselves away.
