Gamblers cash in on Kardashian divorce
Well, it’s nice to know the marriage / publicity stunt / TV episode or whatever those handful of days when Kim Kardashian was married to Kris Humphries are called is paying off for some folks. It seems that Betonline.com was taking bets on the divorce before the 10 million dollar wedding event and television spectacular (marriage is a sacred and these days televised institution judged by the TV ratings) took place. One bet, which had almost even odds was whether the marriage would break up before the NBA regular season took off. A sarcastic seeming bet that apparently put more faith in the marriage than it should have.
Ah, the joy of pseudo-celebrity marriage. The question now is will the Kardashian brand withstand any backlash from the divorce and I’ve even seen quotes that say things like “Kim has this knack for turning bad moment in her life into financial bonanzas.” So, if you bet on the Kardashian’s breaking up, don’t feel too sorry for Kim because hey, her marriage may have ended but her fame will go on… Or as Khloe Kardashian said “Love is everything…” You know, except when it needs to hold your marriage together for longer than the 90 employment trial period the average McDonald’s fry guy gets.
I’d love to bet on when the American public will finally tire of the Kardashians and other folks apparently famous for being famous. Hey, she didn’t make the NY Times today, which could be a good sign. Hey, if someone fusses at you for spending time gambling online, ask them if they watch the Kardashian wedding. Then ask which they think is a bigger waste of time.
