You gotta feel for the editors of Marie Claire. They chose Kim Kardashian as their December cover-girl, and the pictures and interview were done BEFORE she filed for divorce. The interview is full of “oh my God we’re soooooooooooo happy” and other BS. Luckily, the editors were able to include this in their article: “In late October, it was announced that Kim would file for divorce, just 72 days after she and Kris tied the knot.”
Whoops.
Here are some interesting tidbits from the interview:
When asked about how much money she earned on her wedding:
“I don’t talk about money.”
Why she turned her wedding into a 3-ring circus:
“I felt like if I didn’t show the wedding, it would be upsetting for people who have taken this journey with me,” Kim says earnestly.
On why she decided to marry so quickly:
“We felt like, ‘Why wait?’” she explains. “It’s fun to have a partner who understands your life and lets you be you.”
About all the rumors that her relationship won’t last, and that her family doesn’t like Kris:
“I feel like where we’re at right now is the best time in my life,” she says. And yet, in the ensuing days, the doomsayers churn out ever more dire headlines, from “Headed for a Split!” to “Kim & Kris: The End.”
About the possibility that Kris had ulterior motives for marrying her:
“I’m not worried about him at all,” she says. “We have a lot of trust, and I don’t think either of us would do anything to break that. It makes life so easy. He’s such a good guy; he is so down-to-earth, and it’s such a reality check. He is a normal guy, and I just want to chill out and be normal and not get glammed up all the time. He gets it. Sometimes my life can be really intimidating for people, but he allows me to work and do what I’ve gotta do.”
About her first marriage when she was 19:
“I was 19, and I didn’t know myself,” she says. “As unhappy as I was, and as happy as I am now not to be in that relationship, I learned so much from it: who I wanted to be, who I never wanted to be — you take all those issues and move on.” She smiles brightly. “I learned how to cook and do a lot of marital things. It definitely taught me what being a wife is all about. I think it means taking care of each other’s needs and being there for someone unconditionally.”
I have to take pause here….. It taught her what being a wife is all about!? I’m sorry, but I cannot contain myself! Obviously if there’s one thing she knows nothing about – it’s being a wife!!!
On all the Kardashian shows – and having a public life:
We made a pact as a family and said we would be truly authentic because people don’t buy bullshit,” Kim says. “We’ll just be who we are, and — love it or hate it — we have each other. Everything that goes on is stuff we do. I think that’s what makes it so relatable, because we are not afraid to show crazy things.”
This interview was priceless.
