Kim Kardashian self-promoting her crappy single while tweeting prayers to Japan....pfffffffffft. I agree with Joanne and would like to see some of them donate THEIR money instead of joining forces to take ours. And Frank, you said it best!
KK is so concerned about Japan? Please. Take a look at her FB page. She's posting all kinds of Me, Me, Me posts. Get a clue US Mag.
Hey Frank - More power to you...so I will post YOUR post in support!In -- what must be -- one of the tackiest moves of the decade -- for K Kardashian to use a tragedy of this magnitude to self promote her so-called music deserves to be noted somewhere in the hall of shame. Now, Kardashian belongs along side Lohan and Sheen in the ever growing list of celebrities (using the term lightly with her) who "really screwed up their reps via self promotion and dumb behavior."
