Kim Kardashian was a guest on Piers Morgan Tonight, a show surprisingly still on air, along with eldest sister Kourtney Kardashian. Morgan, who’s been upsetting people left and right with his new CNN talk show, has apparently already run out of people to interview after talking to Oprah Winfrey, the first African-American billionaire and Condoleezza Rice, the first African-American woman secretary of state. And so he has used the Kardashian sisters as a back-up. Okay, sure.
Morgan, who’s not afraid of asking a probing question, asked Kardashian about her sex tape; a tape that, in all likelihood, she leaked herself for profit and then pretended to be devastated by as she quietly laughed all the way to the bank (see strategy later used by Kendra Wilkinson for multiple releases). For some reason, purportedly because he ‘knows [Kardashian] doesn’t want to talk about this’, and so he doesn’t want to ‘belabour’ the point, Morgan makes it clear this is a question Kardashian can skip. Rather than doing so, Kardashian, in a monotone, seeming to recite from memory, says she’s devastated and embarrassed. And not just at being asked such a coddling question. With a leading question declaring what a ‘victim’ of this ‘terrible’, ‘modern curse [of the Internet]‘ Kardashian is, after the release of her ‘appallingly invasive’ tape, she replies she felt ‘embarrassment’ and ‘shame’ and was lucky to have ex-boyfriend Reggie Bush in her life to help count all that extra money (paper cuts are a b**ch).
