We’ve never been huge fans of Kim Kardashian’s look. She’s got that gratuitously exotic thing going on, which is the entirety of her appeal if she has any at all.
But she’s too puffy for us … Goldie Hawn-esque, except with more melanin and a way bigger tush.
So, again, we’ve never been huge fans of Kim’s look. But today she crossed the line.
She posed for a cover and a layout in Life & Style magazine, the photos for which haven’t been retouched.
On purpose! By Kim’s request!
The feature in Life & Style, out today, is Kim’s response to recently leaked pictures comparing retouched images of her to their untouched originals.
Says Kim in her faux-flip cover quote: “I have cellulite. So what?”
She’s right, of course. So what if she has cellulite? Nobody cares … as long as she airbrushes it out of her pictures.
Because seriously: Purposeful ugliness is ugly nonetheless.
The worst part is that Kim’s onto a trend.
Somehow ugly is the new pretty.
There’s Susan Boyle, for example. And the usually-gorgeous but currently makeup-free Sophie Marceau, Eva Herzigova, and Monica Bellucci.
And, worst of all, there’s Sic Willie’s fancy for Melissa Joan Hart. Which we hear is shared by DJ Slick.
Yuck!
So, really, Kim’s just being hip and with-it.
Still, we prefer perfection.
Trendiest of all, though? Justin Timberlake.
We weren’t sure what he meant initially when he said he was “bringing sexy back,” because to our knowledge it hadn’t disappeared.
JT must have foreseen the future, though, because sexy is sure as hell gone now.

I laughed my ass off reading that entire article… Here’s what you, specifically, should do:
A) Look at yourself in the mirror and ask yourself if any of the women you’ve listed, including Kim, would ever have sex with you, then
B)Tell your mother that she’s really ugly, because likely she has tons of cellulite, stretch marks and is nowhere near as pretty as Kim, THEN
C)Go back to school (assuming you have already graduated from high school), get yourself a degree in something worthwhile, develop an intelligent argument and THEN write publicly on the Internet.

Cerise -
You like Kim. I get it.
But that doesn’t change the fact that she’s just a knock-off version of Pussycat Doll Nicole Scherzinger.

Kim is totally hot. Cellulite or not. (I wasn’t trying to write poem, it just came out that way.) Her photo should be in Websters next to the word “Sexy.”
Granted some men might not what to jump her bones. But then again, some men are gay.
