Don't count Olivia Wilde among those signing a petition to boycott Kim Kardashian.
Like Kardashian, the sexy In Time actress, 27, made divorce headlines in 2011. Early in October, Wilde and Italian prince Tao Ruspoli finalized their divorce after eight years of marriage (they separated in February). On Oct. 31, of course, Kardashian, 31, filed for divorce after 72 days of matrimony with Kris Humphries.

"I empathize. It's not easy," Wilde told the New York Post of the reality star's romantic drama at a Tuesday bash in Manhattan.

Indeed, pals told Us Weekly that Kardashian "thinks the world turned against her" in the wake of her quickie split from Humphries, 26. "She feels everyone hates her."
Not Wilde! "[Divorce] is the hardest thing in the world," said the star, who eloped with Ruspoli when she was just 19. (Similarly, Kardashian was also 19 when she married music producer Damon Thomas.)
"People judge you because divorce is seen as failure. [Kim] took a risk. No one should be attacking her," Wilde mused. "Our attention should be focused on things that are truly scandalous."
Tell Us What You Think
24UGH! So sick of hearing about this TRICK! Kim made her bed now LIE IN IT!
How in the Hell can Olivia defend this brat. She was married to her husband for eight years and Kim was married for only 72 days. Eight years out weights 72 day so Olivia get the F*$% out of here.
Yvette, you need to study economics and look up something called OPEC. About Olivia: she may have dated a bunch of guys after her marriage broke up but that doesn't mean she was sleeping with them! Jeez.
It's not about seeing Kim's divorce as a "failure"--it's about her sending the message that marriage isn't a sacred commitment and if things get tough you can always get a divorce. NEWS FLASH! Marriage isn't all picnics and rainbows! It takes work!
Here we go another fake,,, Go away Kim. you got enough of our time and money....NEXT
Whatevs
the Kardashians are such low class people that they are going to try to turn this around and portrayed Kris Humphries as the bad one in their new show...Olivia Wilde was married 8 years the porno queen 72 days
I agree. I don't know who Olivia Wilde is and aside from watching a few episodes in the past, I don't watch the Kardashians b/c I found the show to be ridiculous. HOWEVER, I do get annoyed with people who live their lives on soapboxes like they're "perfect" and don't have skeleton in their closets. I wonder what we'd see if some of your lives were put under a microscope?? Move on folks..nothing else to see here...this Kardashian bashing has gotten as old as the Kardashians.

Olivia Wilde gave her marriage more time than just 72 days. And by the way, I don't see divorce as a failure. I do see not giving your marriage less time than the warranty on an electronics purchase as a "failure."
If you are willing to be a celebrity and be in the limelight then be expected to be judged. You chose this life.. it's what you make of it. She had to know she was gonna make bad press.. Stop your cryin!
Shut up Olivia, only a shallow person fame ho like Kim would not suffer from such a scam of a marriage and divorce.
HATERS!!! THE ONLY WAY YOU KNOW THE TRUTH IS IF KIM DID A LIE DETECTOR TEST OR SOMETHING EVEN THEN YOUR NASTY COMMENTS WON'T STOP!! SERIOUSLY PAY ATTENTION TO OIL COMPANIES WHO ARE LITERALLY RAPING US FOR OUR MONEY!! STAND IN FRONT OF THEIR HOMES AND TALK KRAP ONE MAJOR CEO HAS MADE 400 MILLION OFF US IN JUST ONE YEAR!! THEY HAVE NO REAL REASON TO UP PRICES ON US TRUST THEIR MOUTHS WERE SHUT TIGHT WHEN ASKED ABOUT THIS!! I DON'T HEAR YOU SAYING SOMETHING ABOUT THAT!! THIS IS NOTHING COMPARED TO THE TRUE HORRORS IN THE U.S.
Kim should just grow up and quit thinking of how to scam money from people.
Kim Kardasians a JOKE!
why does everyone feel they have a right to judge these people? is it because their life in in the limelight and yours isn't? im not saying either of them are right or wrong but really everyone here has made mistakes and theirs just happen to be out in the open for everyone to criticize. no one on here has been divorced before? no one on here has had more than one boyfriend? judge yourself before you start judging others
