Kim Kardashian covers Marie Claire, talks about her life pre-divorce

december-2011-kim-kardashian

I feel so bad for the editors of Marie Claire. They got Kim Kardashian for their December cover, and the interview was apparently conducted a few weeks before Kim filed for divorce. So there are lots of quotes from Kim about how happy she is with Kris Humphries and how well she knows herself and all of that, but there was still enough time in editorial for the writer to include that “In late October, it was announced that Kim would file for divorce, just 72 days after she and Kris tied the knot.” If I was the editor over there, I might be tempted to simply redo the issue with another (emergency) cover girl. I suspect that Kim made an enemy out of Marie Claire for the way she screwed them over for this cover story. Anyway, here is the full story and here are some of the highlights. In retrospect, it’s fun to laugh at how Kim was so full of herself.

When asked about how much her wedding cost… Kim smiles demurely, “I don’t talk about money.”

Why Kim made her wedding a circus: “I felt like if I didn’t show the wedding, it would be upsetting for people who have taken this journey with me.”

Why Kim married Kris so quickly: “We felt like, ‘Why wait?’” she explains. “It’s fun to have a partner who understands your life and lets you be you. Sometimes my life can be really intimidating for people, but he allows me to work and do what I’ve gotta do.”

On Kris Humphries: “I’m not worried about him at all. We have a lot of trust, and I don’t think either of us would do anything to break that. It makes life so easy. He’s such a good guy; he is so down-to-earth, and it’s such a reality check. He is a normal guy, and I just want to chill out and be normal and not get glammed up all the time. He gets it.

On her first marriage to Damon Thomas: “I was 19, and I didn’t know myself,” she says. “As unhappy as I was, and as happy as I am now not to be in that relationship, I learned so much from it: who I wanted to be, who I never wanted to be — you take all those issues and move on.” She smiles brightly. “I learned how to cook and do a lot of marital things. It definitely taught me what being a wife is all about. I think it means taking care of each other’s needs and being there for someone unconditionally.”

On the family’s reality shows: “We made a pact as a family and said we would be truly authentic because people don’t buy bulls–t. We’ll just be who we are, and – love it or hate it – we have each other. I think that’s what makes it so relatable, because we are not afraid to show crazy things.”

[From Marie Claire]

She’s such a dumbass. I guess it’s one of those situations where “Stars: They’re Just Like Us!” I know people who are all patronizing and full of themselves once they get married, and they make pronouncements about how this is the happiest they’ve ever been and they recommend marriage to everyone, and WHY AREN’T YOU MARRIED TOO WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU? And those are the people who always end up with the crappy marriages that end in divorce. Kim is one of those people.

    Wow, she says she married him because he’s
    “down to earth” and a “reality check”? That just doesn’t add up. He proposed on national television. That’s not down to earth. Really bad reason to marry a guy.
    Her first marriage sounded more realistic.
    But, lust is blind.

    Yeah Right, *singing* … it’s all about the money, money, money, it’s ’bout the bling, b-bling.

    Kard$hians only have one thing on their minds – their money and brand

    She’s unrecognizable on the cover. That looks more like Vanessa Marciel or Naya Rivera. She should be so lucky IRL. Or perhaps she should take some lessons from whoever did her Marie Claire makeup. It looks so much better than what she slathers on now.

    @svetlana: I thought so too. Photoshop much?

    I’m guessing that’s the last Marie Claire cover for any of the K-klan. Pretty embarrassing for them.

    Is she living in the 1950s?! ‘He allows me to work…I’ve learned to cook and to do marital things…it taught me what being a wife was all about….’ You know, in the 21st century, women allow themselves to work. And they cook if and when they want to. And being a wife is whatever the hell works for you and your partner. She is so irritating that I can’t help but read this crap. Reading abt the Kardashians makes me wonder if I secretly wouldn’t like to scratch my own eyes out. What other explanation could there be? I don’t watch their shows. So that must be it. I get off on self-inflicted pain.

    Well if you all hadn’t told me that was her on the cover I would never have known…Really !! Give that man the photoshopping of the year award or at least till Lindsays Playboy shoots come out then they will win hands down….
    Don’t you just love the way they fake every photo and every cover of every magizine out their now …It like they are afraid to show the world what real people look like without the help of the handy dandy photoshopping tool…
    As for the article……..What a freaking joke……

    Bwahahahaha! She’s right, people don’t buy bullshit, and that’s why everyone is calling them out as fake, money-grubbing famewhores.

    What sort of anti-plastic face camera lens did they use for that cover?!?

    I think Marie Claire really missed the boat on this one. They should have pushed the “Kim and Kris’s marriage was a stunt” storyline.

    And I agree with you all, Kim looks SO MUCH BETTER without the troweled on makeup and tarantula lashes.

    Kaiser states: “I feel so bad for the editors of Marie Claire.” Well…I don’t. She is the one on everyone’s minds and lips at the moment, so this issue will sell like hot cakes for them. Even though we all want them to go away, this controversy is too big to be ignored. So I bet MC editors are like praising they chose her before the sh*t hit the fan..perfect timing.
