Kim Kardashian’s got all kinds of haters. After filing for divorce from Kris Humphries after only 72 days, followed by nabbing a role in Tyler Perry’s the Marriage Counselor much to the dismay of a number of black actresses, Kim Kardashian has garnered heaps of attention – hardly any of it positive.
Now, Kardashian critics are banding together to publicly show their shared hatred for the 31-year-old reality star with an online petition aimed at removing Kim and her famous family from the E! Network.
Cyndy Snider, creator of the “No More Kardashian” petition on gopetition.com, told Yahoo: “In a grassroots effort, we have collected [thousands of] signatures for a petition asking E! Entertainment to remove the Kardashian suite of shows from their programming.”
Snider went on to say the Kardashian shows are ”mostly staged” and “place an emphasis on vanity, greed, promiscuity, vulgarity and over-the-top conspicuous consumption.”
“While some may have begun watching the spectacle as mindless entertainment or as a sort of 'reality satire,' it is a sad truth that many young people are looking up to this family and are modeling their appearance and behavior after them," Snider states. "I'll remind you here that the Kardashian family fame largely started with a 'leaked' sex tape."
However, Snider apparently is not alone in her hatred of the mighty brood. At post time, Snider’s online petition had more than 70,000 names on it! Still, while that number’s nothing to sneeze at, we think it’ll be a cold day in E! hell when the network lets it top-earners go because of a few thousand disgruntled fans.
E! has not responded to the petition, but continues to promote the second season of Kourtney and Kim Take New York which debuts on November 27.
