Promoters Say The Kardashian Brand Is Tarnishing Fast

January 18 Jan 2012 | 13:05
 

 

Maybe its backlash over the hype from Kim Kardahian’s 72-day marriage to Kris Humphries, or just the normal path of any unexplainable flash-in-the-pan phenomenon, but the country’s long national nightmare in regards to the Kardashians may be ending. According to the New York Post , anything that features the overhyped, raven-haired reality show family is becoming “absolutely toxic.” From heavily dropped ratings for “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” to decreased sales of magazines that feature the Kardashian clan, it looks as if the obsession over the camera-ready clan is quickly coming to an end.

Kim was at one time paid around $600,000 just to show up at a Tao’s New Year’s Eve party in Las Vegas, and she and Khloe were many times sought-after - and incredibly well-compensated - party guests the world over. But that is no longer the case, say party promoters who at one tiem ponied up thousands to get them in the door. Travis Bass, co-owner of the New York City nightspot said he would pay her $600,000 personally not to go to Red Egg. R. Couri Hay, a publicist who has worked with them in years past, now hisses to the Post that Kim Kardashian would be crushing to them. Adding he is bored with them, and can’t imagine hiring, “Kim Kardashian and her little clunky sisters” again.

The Post reportecd that circulation for the gossip magazines that were once Kardashian country - Us Weekly, In Touch, Life & Style and OK! - nose-dived nearly 18% in December when any member of the clan showed up on their covers. The paper also makes the point that Kim was dropped by sneaker-maker Sketchers in 2011, and “replaced her with a French bulldog.”
