Why I'm Done Keeping Up With The Kardashians

It's time to say goodbye to the family of bad role models and unnecessary drama.

Why I'm Done Keeping Up With The Kardashians

We all know why and how Kim Kardashian gained her fame in Hollywood *eye roll*. That “fame” exploded into enough publicity to get her and her family their own reality TV show called “Keeping Up With The Kardashians.” This show has run for an outstanding eight years now.

And with that notion, I’m asking the question…WHY IN THE HELL HAS THIS SHOW BEEN ON THE AIR FOR EIGHT CONSECUTIVE YEARS?!?

It’s inappropriate, outlandish, and full of bad role models left and right. Now I admit to having been quite a religious follower of this show in the earlier seasons and I’ve definitely had my fair share of ups and downs with a few of the family members.

Rob Kardashian has been one of my favorites in the family because of his genuinely kind, brotherly nature. Then he’s recently fallen into his state of depression the past couple years and has been MIA on the Kardashian scene. Don’t worry Rob, I would disassociate myself from them too if they were my family.


I even was a fan of Kourtney and Scott (or as I used to refer to him as Lord Disik) for a while. I even gave him second chances when he was a complete d-bag to her as well as their kids – I know, typical girls giving d-bags second chances – and even though I’ve been off of the Kourtney and Scott drama for a while now, a little bit of me broke when I saw that he had recently cheated on her and she left him for good.

Honestly though, I’m extremely done with all of the Kardashian/Jenner nonsense and I’m tired of them being the top stories of every newscast every day. So I’m really happy seeing the world start to come to their senses and try to go on a worldwide “Kardashian Klense” as they call it.


This news anchor threw a fit on live television when a story of Kylie Jenner getting a rabbit and naming him Bruce was their next news segment. It’s hilarious and all too true at the same time. Watch it here!

He’s right, the world shouldn’t be revolving around such self-absorbed people like the Kardashians and Jenners.

Khloe Kardashian has always been the wild one and I actually believed she was finally settling down and becoming an adult when she married her then-husband, Lamar Odom. After she divorced him though, she began to just become a background character in the show.

Kendall is now a model in the real world always traveling and looking perfect. Let me remind you that this girl is 19 years old! I know I’ll never in a million years look like that though and I know that is just Hollywood standard beauty, so I believe she is irrelevant to my life in all aspects.

Kim married the perfect male version of herself. Kayne West has more money than God, thinks that he, himself, is indeed a God, and now makes up half of one of the most powerful couples in the world. With all this power though, all they seem to get publicity for is their ridiculously expensive parties, luxury items, and just straight up weird baby names.

I can’t stand the Kardashian/Jenner drama anymore. They are poisoning thousands of minds everywhere. The two quite possibly worst ones of them all are Kylie and Kris.

Kylie is a newly legal adult; 18 years old, going on 25. She is dating the rapper, Tyga, makes appearances at clubs and bars that she isn’t even old enough to get into legally, and has been getting plastic surgery injections, procedures, etc. for the past year or so. What a great role model to young teens everywhere, right? Yeah, I’m done hearing about people trying to get “Kylie Jenner lips” or about which of her new Instagram posts gained over 2 million new likes.

As a mother of six children, Kris is more than likely to let the kids slip up every now and then. However, she shouldn’t have the goal to pimp out her kids as much as possible become a reality. They literally are a family of talentless, self-absorbed crazies and Kris would have no issue slapping some lingerie on any of them (regardless of age) to be photographed for publicity or to get into the news any way possible.

It’d be one thing if the world was obsessed with a family that had good morals and values and were great role models for the world, but that’s not the case with the Kardashians. While I do believe that somewhere deep down there is love for one another, it is not often shown as the siblings fight, curse, and say nasty things to each other rather than express their love for one another for a great majority of the time that they are in the public eye.

Families like the Robertsons from the TV show, Duck Dynasty should be the type of family that we, as a society, look up to, talk about in media, and strive to live like. They are beyond successful through a family business. They very publicly keep a Godly relationship and focus on being good people in the world with wonderful life lessons in almost every episode and they end each episode with a big family dinner and a prayer/blessing on the family. If that’s not what America should be idolizing, then I don’t want to be a part of society anymore.

And with that said, I publically vow to stop reading any more newsworthy articles about the Kardashians, stop watching their TV shows and spinoffs, and refuse to follow any of them on social media. I am joining this “Kardashian Klense” and encourage everyone to do the same.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
