Kim Kardashian SLAMMED for Vogue India Cover!

Kim Kardashian can’t catch a break, huh?


Well, that’s not exactly true — if you think about it, her entire life is like one great big break.




Plenty of other people have made a lame sex tape with their boyfriends that later got into the wrong hands, but have those people been able to turn that awful experience into millions and millions of dollars?


Exactly.


But while she’s super rich and famous and beautiful and so on and so forth, one thing that might not be all that fun about being Kim Kardashian is that she gets so. Much. Hate.


Just so very much hate, from so many people, on a regular basis.



Sometimes it’s deserved, and sometimes it’s not.


You just wait and see what you think about her latest move, OK?


Earlier this week, Kim announced that she’d be appearing on the cover of Vogue India, and the magazine also released the images of her two covers.


She looks great, which makes sense — that’s sort of what she does.

But people aren’t so much upset by the actual photos as they are by the fact that she’s on the cover of Vogue India at all.


“This is just disrespectful af to all the brown skinned Indian women who don’t get any exposure because @vogueindia is obsessed with white beauty standards,” one such person wrote on Instagram.


Over on Twitter, someone wrote “So I guess there was not Indian models/actors available for his cover. Where is the Indian representation in mainstream media? Has it only become relevant when white girls at coachella are rocking a bindi?”


How’s that for some real talk?


“So many pretty Indian models out there and Vogue India somehow chooses kendall jenner and kim kardashian for their covers,” another person commented. “How hard is it to have Indian women represent Indian culture?”

Oh, because in case you’d forgotten, this same exact thing happened not too long ago with Kendall Jenner — she was on the cover of Vogue India, too, and nobody was happy about that one either.


One particularly upset person wrote “WE HAVE PLENTY OF TALENTED BOLLYWOOD ACTRESSES THAT CAN BE ON THE COVER NO OFFENSE BUT KIM KARDASHIAN WAS NOT NEEDED THE OTHER COUNTRIES THAT PUT HER ON FAIR PLAY THEY DON’T HAVE A BIG FILM INDUSTRY BUT WE DO SO PLZ DON’T LET THIS HAPPEN AGAIN.”


Several people claimed that Kim Kardashian isn’t even famous in India — apparently there are many there who don’t even know who she is.


But while tons of social media users are just upset as can be over Kim’s cover, lots of others are totally cool with it.



“Dumb girls really putting so much energy into this #VogueIndia hate,” one of those people tweeted. “Kim can still purchase you, it’s not that deep, the magazine is getting all the attention it wants.”


“Focus on REAL representation issues. Thanks.”


Another popular argument is that Kim is Armenian, so it shouldn’t be too big of a deal.


It’s a complicated issue, to say the least.


Do you think Kim deserves to be on the cover of Vogue India?

Serena Williams Covers Vogue, Gets Bashed By Racist Trolls

Yes, we know everyone wants Oprah to be president after her Golden Globes speech on Sunday night, but for our money, if there’s anyone who can unite this divided country, it’s Serena Williams.


Serena is one of the world’s most dominant athletes; she’s an inspiration to millions; she won a freakin’ Australian Open while pregnant, and she’s married to a tech gazillionaire.



What we’re saying is, we will personally engage in fisticuffs with anyone who has even the slightest complaint about Serena.


Which sadly means we’re gonna have to fight a bunch of basement-dwelling, bigtoted troglodytes.


As you can seen, Serena covers the new issue of Vogue with her adorable 4-month-old daughter.


And as further proof that we’re living in the Darkest Timeline, people are upset about it.


Yes, as hard as it might be to believe that anyone could be so bitter about their own crappy life that they would take issue with a photo of a world-class athlete and her 4-month-old baby, it seems the goal of 2018 is to remind us each and every day that the planet is populated by humans so cartoonishly evil that they wouldn’t be welcome in Slytherin House.



As you may already know, Serena is married to Alexis Ohanian, co-founder of Reddit.


You would think that as one of the creators of the internet’s most popular anonymous sh-t talking dens, Ohanian would be beloved by anonymous sh-t talkers. 


But apparently that’s not the case.


In fact, it seems many of the people who commented believe Serena and Alexis should never have married or reproduced because–long, pained sigh–she’s black and he’s white.


“Serena is a disgrace to her parents, grandparents, African ancestors because she married and mated with a European knowing that his ancestors owned Africans as SLAVES,” wrote one commenter who’s probably a lot of fun at parties.


A good rule of thumb is that no one who uses the word “mated” in casual conversation is even remotely sane.



As usual, there were also people who talked disparagingly about Serena’s appearance and even–anguished, audible groan–the appearance of her baby.


But we’re not going to reproduce those comments here.


In fact, we’re leaving all that negativity and BS in 2017, folks!


It’s all positive vibes and hydration and whatnot from here on out!


Now if you’ll excuse us, we have Real Housewives to make fun of.


Damn, we’re messing this up already, aren’t we?
