"The figure of Kendall there is like that school art class accident, when you glued the the picture and it stuck to the other paper before you could place it correctly, and now there's nothing you can do to fix it."

Comment that made me laugh a lot, at "The Kardashian-Jenner Sisters for the Calvin Klein Fall 2018 Ad Campaign" (at Tom & Lorenzo). I love the way once you've read the comment, there's no other way to see the photograph:

I seee high waisted jeans (so called mon-jeans) have made a return.

gspencer said...

No, I still see four sets of large breasts.

MayBee said...

It's awful, right?

Rory said...

It's a trick - you're not cool if you know which one is Kendall.

Known Unknown said...

I'm sensing Kendall may have some non-Kardashian blood somewhere in her that makes her less prone to exhibitionism.

Outside of the trees, she's the only natural thing in the photo.

When I watch KUTK I am constantly percieving subtle (and sometimes overt) moments were the sisters try to undercut or outdo the each other. That appears to be what is happening here. Each one is trying to stand out in their own way, and Kendell seems to have won the battle. The only possible exception might be Kourtney, who is off in the background, seemingly low key and out of the fray. She may not be tryinh to steal the spotlight, but her poses are in line with persona she portrays on the show.

Known Unknown said...

Kylie has been butchered.

You mean this isn't photoshopped?

madAsHell said...

Haven't we seen a picture of our hostess studying in law school with that exact same Kardashian hair cut?

Who da thunk?....that our hostess was such a trend setter!?!?!

(Kardashian was accepted by the spell checker. Can the end be far?)

Where's Caitlyn?

Last night ABC broadcast the conclusion of this season's Bachelorette reality show. Bachelorette Becca gave her final rose to a suitor named Garrett.

At the end of the show, Becca and Garrett appeared before a studio audience and were interviewed about how much they loved each other and about their plans and so forth.

During this interview, they discussed also Garrett's involvement in a social-media scandal. It turns out that, in the past, Garrett has "liked" various Instagram posts that are deemed to be racist, homophobic, etc.

The interview did not provide any details, so viewers had to search for explanations on the Internet after the show ended.

One of the Instagram posts was a photograph showing the two doors of a men's and women's bathrooms. The men's door was illustrated by a photograph of Bruce Jenner winning a decathlon race as a young male athlete, and the women's door was illustrated by a photograph of Caitlyn Jenner as an older transgender woman.

This humorous photograph of the two bathroom doors was posted in 2017, and Garrett was one of 505 people who "liked" the photo.

So, there is a relationship between 1) the Bachelorette show and 2) Kendall Jenner (daughter of Bruce/Caitlyn Jenner).

"The Tipping Point." It proves the power of the visual image , especially when a pretty woman is in the image.

Known Unknown said...

"You mean this isn't photoshopped?"

No, it totally is -- these women were not all shot together at one time.

The Crack Emcee said...

I have absolutely no interest in this family, other than as something Kanye West has acquired.

Expat(ish) said...

I have never seen a real life woman who looked good in those button front high waist jeans.

And I was in high school when that was a hot style and I spent a LOT of my time looking for and looking at women. As my grades showed.

Looks good on whoever that is, though.

The writer is too young to remember Colorforms?

I had the Batman (1966) .

Yancey Ward said...

You are right- I would never have taken any notice of the tilt (on its face, she is walking and turning to the left during one of probably hundreds of sequential snaps taken at the session. But now that the idea that she was tacked on to the photograph, I can't unthink that idea.

Rabel said...

I don't know much about the Kardashian girls, but I think it's a good idea for them to print "underwear" on their underwear to avoid confusion.

There is nothing like a good hoedown.

Ralph L said...

Does anyone think Kim won't have hip problems in 25 years?

mccullough said...

The Brother K got left out of the photo

Mike (MJB Wolf) said...

Can’t. Unsee. It.

tcrosse said...

Shut up and swivel.

Anonymous said...

The whole gang are reality TV/social media porn stars, or perhaps prostitutes. In real terms, probably not very good at either. There are plenty of good looking women who like sex, its not that special. Most of their fame comes from (young) females.

etbass said...

Crack, great to see ya back!!

robother said...

Ken Doll? Who names their daughter after a male accessory to Barbie? Oh, right.

TrespassersW said...

I'm still trying to figure out why I'm supposed to care about any of the people in that picture.

richlb said...

The lily-white "Jenner" girls are in the forefront while the darker, more foreign looking "Kardashian" girls get the back row.

tcrosse, you have been nailing it these past few days.

I presume when you "become" a celebrity, you ride the tiger in whatever direction it takes you. The tiger will decide where you get off and others get on. I presume that is how this particular photo shoot became a reality.
I suppose there can be some individual agency (e.g. K Spacey) but there is an utter incomprehensibility in what famous people do to remain famous. The Decision making seems arbitrary.

Mike (MJB Wolf) said...

stever, they built a freaking lucrative empire on that young female slice of the population. Those kids spend money and they buy the brands these spawn have spawned.

Ingachuck'stoothlessARM said...

is this from the fembot scene in Austin Powers "Goldmember"?

Earnest Prole said...

If Bruce Jenner had transitioned thirty years ago, that's exactly what he would have looked like.

Howard said...

insert denial knowing these people

holdfast said...

If Kim were a golden retriever I would be concerned about hip dysplasia. But she’s not that smart.

Sprezzatura said...

I very earnestly believe that Kylie is the hottest of this bunch.

I really don't think that I'm influenced by the fact she's supposed to make it to a bil next year.


C'mon.....she could be dead-broke, and this image would put her at the top:

Six cent headband = she still wins.


IMHO.

Sprezzatura said...

Cigars are so 90's.

Paul said...

Kardashians? What's a Kardashian?

Sprezzatura said...

It'd seem like this pick would call for Tit[u}s to make a tits comment.

But, that'd be too blah.



Danno said...

... I love the way once you've read the comment, there's no other way to see the photograph...

I want to unsee the photograph.

Kelly said...

I don’t think I ever, truly appreciated how big in pop culture the Kardashian’s/Jenner’s are until I went to Times Square where their images loom large over all. Bizarre and truly, these woman are the epitome (like it or not) of the self made man/woman.

Sprezzatura said...

"these woman are the epitome (like it or not) of the self made man/woman."

Total BS.

At best they've got a few hundred mil. w/ only Kylie getting past 800, but climbing.


Thinking these folks are the epitome of self-made is by definition foolish.



SAD!

Kelly said...

They came from no where with a lousy reality show. The youngest is on her way to being a billionaire with her cosmetic company. Self made. Get over it.

Sprezzatura said...

Not epitome, though.


IOW, yur error. Not mine.
