'My Comments Were Not Careless, They Were Accurate':

Mad Men's Jon Hamm fires back again over Kim Kardashian 'f***ing idiot' insult


Jon Hamm added more fuel to the fire today in his ongoing war of words with Kim Kardashian.
The Mad Men actor referred to the reality star when he recently hit out at the cult of celebrity in an interview with April's Elle UK magazine, saying that it made ' f***ing idiots' like Kim and Paris Hilton into millionaires.
Kim, 31, who was spotted at the airport in Miami today, fired back at Hamm  - branding his comments 'careless' earlier this month.
But during an appearance on The Today Show this morning, 41-year-old Hamm firmly stood by his remarks.

When asked about the matter by host Matt Lauer, Hamm responded: 'I don’t think [my comments] were careless. I think they were accurate.'
He pulled no punches as he made another attack on the culture of reality television.
 

'It’s a part of our culture that I certainly don’t identify with, and I don’t really understand the appeal of it other than in a sort of car crash sensibility,' he said.

'And it’s not something that I partake in or enjoy, but it is what is and here we are.'
Hamm's co-star Vincent Kartheiser - who plays Pete Campbell in the Sixties drama - then waded in, saying he agreed with Jon's comments.
He mused: 'Our society enjoys to turn on the television and see someone who’s maybe awful and they can say, "Well at least I’m not as terrible as that person."'
Hamm then concluded: 'There are a lot of channels on the dials and those channels need to be filled up with things… It’s different strokes for different folks.'

Full statement: The entirety of Kim's response to Hamm's comment  His latest remarks come after Kim took to Twitter earlier this month to defend herself in the wake of his initial attack.
She wrote: 'Calling someone who runs their own businesses, is a part of a successful TV show, produces, writes, designs, and creates, 'stupid,' is in my opinion careless.'
'I respect Jon and I am a firm believer that everyone is entitled to their own opinion and that not everyone takes the same path in life. We're all working hard and we all have to respect one another.'
New series: Hamm's comments come as the new series of Mad Men, in which he plays womanising advertising exec Don Draper, is due to air

Speaking to Elle, Hamm said: 'Whether it's Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian or whoever, stupidity is certainly celebrated.
'Being a f***ing idiot is a valuable commodity in this culture because you're rewarded significantly.'
The Golden Globe winning actor added that the success of reality TV stars 'doesn't make any sense' to him.

Khloe Kardashian Falls Out With Best Friend Malika Haqq Over Plastic Surgery Advice

Khloe Kardashian was playing the doting friend on tonight’s episode of Khloe & Lamar.
Her closest pal Malika Haqq said she intended to have a breast augmentation, but Khloe believed her friend may have wanted surgery for the wrong reasons.
Khloe said: ‘I’m not opposed to plastic surgery if you’re doing it for you, but is this something you want to do, or are you just doing it because you and Adrian broke up?’

Khloe’s solution was to take her friend lingerie shopping to show that she could get the same effects without having to go under the knife.
And when that didn’t work, the reality star decided to strip down to her underwear to show Malika that everybody has flaws.
‘That’s what best friends are for,’ she told the cameras.
But the plan quickly backfired when, after Khloe had pointed out her wobbly bits, Malika said: ‘You could get lipo if you wanted to.’

Khloe quickly snapped: ‘Malika, that is so rude,’ before vowing she would no longer help her pal.
She told the cameras: ‘I cannot believe Malika insulted me and called me fat.’
As they drove home together, she then said she would ‘probably not’ be accompanying her friend to the pre-operation consultation.
Khloe added: ‘Why don’t I just get lipo and give you the fat to put in your breasts?’

While she went to her appointment without Khloe, after seeing a photograph of a woman with breasts the same size as her, Malika realised she may be making a mistake.
Afterwards, Malika went to Khloe’s house to patch things up following their argument.
She admitted: ‘Maybe I was trying to get large breasts for the wrong reasons,’ before adding, ‘You’re annoying as hell. And don’t call my friend fat, it’s rude.’

Meanwhile Lamar was considering taking a trip with his father despite the fact they have had a rocky relationship in the past.
He said sceptically: ‘I’m glad my father is back in my life but there’s certain things I still think about and hold on to. I just don’t understand why Joe is the way he is.’
However the pair bonded over dinner and Joe opened up to his son about being in the Vietnam War and suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder afterwards.

‘I have a whole newfound respect for what you guys do,’ Lamar told one of the marines. ‘It’s a humbling experience. A lot of people look up to athletes. We’re nothing compared to you guys.’
The day made Lamar realise why his father wasn’t always there for him when he was younger and he decided they should take the trip together.

Kim Kardashian Gets To Grips With a Little St. Patrick's Day Fashion

With her famously sleek and shiny locks being under threat from getting dishevelled with a life-sized hat, Kim Kardashian decided to only put a little effort in celebrating St. Patrick’s Day yesterday.
The reality TV star expressed her well wishes to her Twitter followers before posting a picture of how she would be showing her appreciation for the Irish religious holiday.
Kardashian snapped herself pinching a tiny green and gold hat between her fingers and positioning it on the right side of her head.

Barely touching her poker straight tresses, the 31-year-old was careful not to get any glitter on her long locks.
She wrote: ‘Happy St. Patricks Day everyone. Be safe.’ Later adding: ‘How cute is this St. Pattys Day hat!’
But it was her perfect appearance which was more eye-catching than her silly headgear.

She appeared practically flawless as she matched a Barbie pink shade of lip gloss to her nails and top, flashing upper and lower eyelash extensions.
However Kardashian could well have been getting ready for a photo shoot as she posed in a room with framed magazine covers on the wall which requires layers upon layers of makeup.
The star is constantly posing for snaps to share with her admirers which recently helped her gain more followers on the micro-blogging website the US president.

Kris Jenner Posts a Picture Of Herself Pregnant

Kris Jenner Posts a Picture Of Herself Pregnant With Her Son Rob In honour Of His 25th Birthday

It was fair few years before Demi Moore posed naked and pregnant for her infamous Vanity Fair cover.
But Kris Jenner was clearly ahead of the game back in 1987 while pregnant with son Rob Kardashian - yesterday she posted a photograph of herself showing her original take on the Demi-style pose.
The 56-year-old reality star matriarch posted the picture on her Celeb Buzz blog in honour of Rob's 25th birthday.

It shows her with a heavy dark fringe and longer hair, along with a large baby bump and white underwear.
The revealing picture was accompanied by a loving caption which read: 'Happy 25th birthday to my wonderful, handsome son, Rob!!
'Rob, you are the best son a mother could ask for and you make me proud every day. I love you so much!!'
Kris joined Rob and the Kardashian clan yesterday at the 1 Oak Club at the Mirage Hotel to celebrate.
She wore a clinging long sleeved red bandage dress and silver hooped earrings as she posed alongside Rob and Kim
They joined little sisters Kylie and Kendall for a night of fun in Sin City.
Kim, 31, was in her usual figure-hugging style, showing off her famous curves in a cream sequinned dress.
But, judging from photos uploaded from Twitter from inside the club, it appeared Kris was the bigger party animal out of the two.

Kim tweeted several photos of her mother dancing in a private booth, writing: 'Mom gone wild... How pretty is my momma!?!'

However, while teenagers Kylie, 14, and Kendall, 16, had jumped in the private jet for the mini excursion, they weren't allowed to join the party at the 1 Oak club because they're underage.
Kim strictly stipulated the pair were only allowed to join them for dinner as she tweeted about their attendance: 'Even the little sisters are coming to Vegas! #DinnerOnly.'

When they were finally reunited with their mother and older siblings for their 3am flight back to LA, they made no secret of how bored they had been while waiting.
Kendall tweeted in the early hours of this morning: 'Longest night ever...'
But Kim had clearly enjoyed herself: '3am flight back home! What a fun night!'

It may be a long time since Kris was pregnant, but she is getting increasingly excited over pregnant daughter Kourtney's impending new arrival.
'I can't stop shopping,' she told People. 'Kourtney is now angry with me because I keep bringing stuff home.'
Kourtney is due to give birth to a little girl in July - her second child with long time boyfriend Scott Disick.

Meanwhile, it has emerged that the birthday boy is joining his sisters in creating his own fashion line.
However, unlike his sisters' more glamorous clothing line, Rob will be working on socks.

'I'm working on a dress sock line. I'm very passionate about it,' he told Us Weekly last week.
'I have no idea yet [what it's going to be called],' he said. 'I don't really want it to be associated with the Kardashian brand...
'I've started several companies before and people don't know about it because I don't vocalise it. Things succeed, they fail, and that's how you start a business venture. So hopefully this succeeds.'
