Kim Kardashian Insists Marriage was for Love, not TV
2011-11-03
[An Nahar] Reality television superstar Kim Kardashian Wednesday hit back at speculation her lavish wedding was a stunt, saying her short-lived marriage to Kris Humphries was for love, not television.

In Sydney to promote her new handbag range, the celebrity revealed her pain after filing for divorce on Monday from basketball player Humphries, who she married less than three months ago.

"It's a hard time right now," said Kardashian, known for the reality show "Keeping Up with the Kardashians," who was mobbed by photographers and fans as she arrived at Sydney airport.

"I don't really think I'm ready to get into the details of it. You know, I am following my heart," she told Australia's Network Ten.
As shallow and cold as it is, she's following that sucker...
The 31-year-old, who has been married and divorced once before, said it was painful to hear talk that her August 20 wedding to towering New Jersey Nets power forward Humphries, 26, was not genuine.

"I think that's probably the hardest part, just from the start there have been so many different reports that just aren't true. Like my wedding cost $10 million," she said. "I married for love, anyone that would, you know, get married for a TV show, it's just, you know, ridiculous and it's just sad that I even have to defend that.

"I guess that's the kind of scrutiny you get when you live your life on a reality show but everything I do is, you know, just for love. I'm a hopeless romantic."

Kardashian said had made a donation to a charity to cover what people would have spent on wedding gifts, feeling that this would be a better contribution than returning the presents.
Oh, how utterly tacky...

#4  I guess this sort of nonsense is why there is a year grace period for giving wedding presents. You wait to be sure they aren't just selfish prigs looking for attention and parting gifts. Hopefully this brew-ha-ha will finally spell the end of the Kardashian reality tv juggernaut that has long overstayed its welcome.
