    Actually, Kim is the perfect celebrity. She doesn't sing, she doesn't act, she doesn't tell jokes, she doesn't model, she doesn't do a damned thing. She's famous for being famous, and that's it.

    But at least we know what artist should paint a portrait of her, although she'd have to go to the south of France to sit for him. She has the perfect figure for the guy, and she even looks a bit like Devil Girl, one of his more famous creations. And being married to Kanye, she could certainly afford whatever he'd charge - in fact, he might even paint her for free, just in exchange for a piggyback ride.

    I wonder when this thing will be shut down? Has made for some amusing reading though.

    Regards,

    I can't see why this thread would be shut down. Kanye is perceived as either a pathetic joke or a brilliant musician????

    If this is not on the main board, then compared to a plethora of political and theological jousts that did need to be closed, and were, this is quite harmless.

    Kanye and The Armenian Ass are thought of by a majority world-wide as f*****g vapid cartoons.

    IIRC, she actually has appeared in a few films - without acting as such. I also believe she has modelled on some occasions, although I can't really see how come.

    I think this thread is very enlightening, without this board my attention would never have been directed towards the facts:
    Kanye cant sing
    The butt's surename is armenian but her heritage is armenian/turkish/russian possibly with a (or not) jewish ancestor who changed his surename from Saghatel Kardaschoff to Sam Kardashian
    Glad its on the main board

    Kanye West once declared himself the smartest man in the world. If so, why would he subject himself to that pathetic display? Even if he used the crowd to bail him out. Not very smart, if you ask me. He still looks pathetic. I kind of feel sorry for the guy. He's got himself so far out in the public eye that he can't even bump into a street sign without being ridiculed.

    There is a story about Joe di Maggio going to a bar with a friend, and the friend, realising that no one appeared to have recognised the famous boxer, said "Tell 'em who you is, Joe." To which Joe replied "If you gotta tell 'em who you is, you ain't."

    I think something like that applies here. If you really are the smartest man in the world, it shouldn't be necessary to inform people of that fact.

    Perhaps driving the point home - Joe DiMaggio was a baseball player, not a boxer.

    As you say, driving the point home.

    My excuse is the association: Joe di Maggio -> Mrs Robinson -> Simon and Garfunkel -> The Boxer.

    A couple of years ago Kanye was headlining a major hipster festival in Finland. After the festival, the weekly supplement of the biggest Finnish newspaper published an article on their website with the headline "listen to Kanye's set from last weekend for free". It contained a link to an mp3 of a crummy speech synthesizer repeating the words "I am Kayne West" [sic] in Finnish over and over. I found this very amusing.

    Kanye and Lil Wayne really need to put a band together.

    In further breaking news today, the Pacific ocean has been found to contain water.
