Kim Kardashian covers the new issue of AdWeek, and she looks especially kat-faced in the editorial. Some of you have claimed that Kim has had some new “work” to her face. Perhaps. It might explain why she didn’t go out on Oscar night a week ago – she was still “healing”. As for the AdWeek interview, it’s about as vapid as one would expect from Kim Kardashian. She literally talks about selfies and sharing her life on social media and that’s it. Some highlights:

She loves selfies: “So many people think that taking selfies is just ridiculous. For me, what’s so funny is I love taking pictures and posting them on social media just for memories. I’m kind of letting them know, yes, it is ridiculous, but it’s all fun. I take it more as a fun, emotional scrapbook that I love to look back on.”

She’s not a celebrity? “It’s not that I brand myself like I’m a celebrity. It’s just I’m living my life and sharing a part of my life with the world.”

Being so active on social media: “I love sharing my world with people, so I don’t see me just having a freak-out and just stopping. Will I do it forever? I’m not sure. But I love the whole idea of it, especially because you get to share things your way.”

Her family is just a normal family: “I hope they get out of it that we are a normal family. They may not think we’re normal, [but] we are a family like everyone else’s that goes through so many different things and we’re always there to support each other. There’s always a family member that someone can relate to…We still have a few more years left in us.”

A lot of people complain (justly) about the prevalence of Kardashians in our celebrity gossip world, but for years now, I’ve defended them as gossip mainstays. There are SO MANY slow gossip days saved by the presence of a Kardashian wearing something awful or doing something stupid. If the “real” celebrities are all being sort of boring, why not spend a little time with gossip-filler like the Kardashians?

Kim also spoke to AdWeek about her iOS game, Kim Kardashian: Hollywood and how it’s an enormous success. Apparently, Kanye was the one to tell her she should put her name on a game, but the success of the game surprised everyone. You can read more here.
