Jon Hamm Defends Kim Kardashian Criticism

It’s round three in the battle of Jon Hamm vs. Kim Kardashian. The “Mad Men” star refused to recant his criticism of the reality TV mainstay today, saying he’s not sorry he told Elle that Kardashian and her ilk are an example of how “stupidity is certainly celebrated” by today’s celebrity-obsessed culture.

“I don’t think [my comments] were careless,” he said on NBC. “I think they were accurate.”

“It’s a part of our culture that I certainly don’t identify with,” he went on, referring to reality TV, “and I don’t really understand the appeal of it other than in a sort of car crash sensibility.”

Kardashian called Hamm’s initial criticism “careless” last week. She’s yet to respond to his latest comments, and her most recent tweet reflected everything he hates. “So excited for brand new episode of Khloe & Lamar tonight!!,” she wrote Sunday night, referring to her sister and brother-in-law’s E! reality show.

Bravo,Mr. Hamm! Of course being an actor,he must realize how the more reality that invades cable,the less scripted shows there are. These reality series are costing hundreds of actors work. They are cheap to produce,but I agree with him. This shit has gone waaayyy too far. (Ice loves CoCo,Khloe & Lamar,etc.) It's scary when off shoot shit is created from other shit.

Sorry Speeps, his comments offended one person. Nomination denied for being a careless, insensitive prick.

Maybe he and his counterparts shouldnt have created the Reality TV boom with the most ill advised and unsuccessful strike in the history of mankind



Did you know that reality television was born out of the SAG strike of 2000? After years of pitching network executives without success, Realty TV Pioneer Mark Burnett exploited the opportunity of the actors’ strike by offering his new concept of unscripted television to the American consumer, changing the history of programming forever.
