Front page on tFS today: Kim Kardashian Gets Engaged, Flaunts Ginormous 20.5-Carat Ring

 

[CarolineRose]

^I guess it's their own business, but that ring is obscene . . . and not even pretty! I normally hate people who make these kind of statements, but I just HAVE to this time: I wonder how many tornado victims those 21 carats could help...

Pimp Mama Kris Strikes Again!

If a Kardashian doesn't announce her engagement in a magazine, it didn't happen, so Mama Kris worked her pimp magic and got her main ho the cover of People! Yes, Kim Kardashian is engaged to a dude who has the same name as her mom.

Kim says that on May 18th, she sashayed into the bedroom of her Beverly Hills home and found Kris Humphries on bended knee in front of dozens of rose petals that spelled out: "Will You Marry Me?" Kim didn't mention this, but I'm sure production assistants from her soon-to-be announced E! reality show Kim & Kris Get Engaged are the ones who laid out the petals. Since Kim can't move her face anymore, Pimp Mama Kris had to run out from the bathroom and loosen the Botox with a blow dryer. That way Kim could show some kind of emotion for the cameras. Kim goes on:

"I didn't expect this at all. I was in such shock. I never thought it would happen at home, and I never thought now."

Alienface, please! Don't act like you didn't spend hours practicing saying the word "yes" that was written for you on a script by the writer of your reality show.

Of course, Pimp Mama Kris threw an engagement party just hours after Kris put a 20.5 carat diamond ring on Kim's finger. (Yes, 20 fuc*ING carats! Kim's as* lips weigh less than that ring and that's saying a lot). The party sounds like a beautiful event that only a horse abuser could love, "Kris really didn't want a big celebration, but he had jokingly told my mom he'd be fine if there were mini-horses there. Later that night at the party, my mom brought out two mini-horses, covered in glitter, for us! It was hysterical!"

Yes, you stupid piece of trash, two sedated mini-horses with glitter in their ears and the look of fear in their eyes from having to entertain a bunch of snakes sounds absolutely hysterical! But what was more hysterical was the sight of Ryan Seacrest squealing in the corner about how he has enough shows to last until the next Rapture. Coming soon: Kim & Kris Get Engaged! Kim & Kris Get Married! Kim & Kris Have A Baby! Kim & Kris Get Divorced! Kim & Satan Renew Their Contract!

The Kardashian's got what they crave...lots of PR..already on People and US weekly, they are running a bunch of Kim's engagement articles.

If she's happy, that's good. the ring is what i guess she wanted.
i wouldnt' find the ring as ridiculous if she was engaged to LeBron, but i wouldn't be surprised if Mama Kris financially supported that ring.

i mean, Salma Hayek's ring is smaller and she married a billionaire. Just saying...

 

[LUXXX]

I feel bad for this Kris guy...the Kardashians are a business and when he's done serving his purpose, he will be sent packing. Kim strikes as a cold, calculating business woman to the degree that she will do whatever it takes to maintain her status. Marriage is the next step for her empire of reality, but this poor bastard has no idea...and he just blew all his salary on a tacky ring.

 

[FASHIONLOVA]

i guess he had to get her a ring as big as her butt!!! or is it that her butt got her a big as* ring??!! either way that thing is huuuugeee and wouldn t be practical in the everyday life.

 

[roisin]

they are so tacky, it's scary. who in the world needs a 20 carat ring? it's just so ostentatious, and if i'm honest quite desperate. forbes said that his yearly salary is 2 million, which is what the ring cost....really? spend an entire years salary on a ring?? are these people out of their minds?

 

[LUXXX]

^^This is why these professional athletes go broke. On the other hand, it could also translate to a thank you gift since he certainly wasn't getting GQ spreads before he met her...

ITA! they spend their money very thoughtless so it's usually gone as fast as it came. *totally OT, but i read that a rapper recently spent 8 million dollar on a car. no matter how much money you have, that is just stupid. and people with REAL money who are really high society will laugh at such a stupidity.*
i mean beyonce's ring is also rumored to be worth like 5 million and of course that's crazy and ridiculous... but he is jay z (one of the weathiest rappers and enrepreneurs in music) and she is beyonce.

 

[roisin]

^ agree. though i also think 5 million is ridiculous as well, in comparison to watch jay-z earns it's not that much (can't believe i'm saying 5 million is not that much ) but seriously, this is this guy's salary for a YEAR. but i agree, he's benefiting from marrying her..nobody outside of the basketball world knew about him before. he plays for a crappy team and had like, a 10 point average. whatever it is that she does for a "job" she makes more than him, so i guess it's his way of making up for that

god, that makes it sound like i care too much...i don't, i just think it's ridiculous that these people get the recognition that they do. their engagement was one of the opening stories on the evening new last night???!

 

[daniellat]

I think it's crazy to speculate how this guy can or can't afford such a ring. Like we know exactly how much he makes, spends or how much the rings is worth really.

Then how come a 5md ring is accepted because is on Beyonce's hand and Kim's 2md ring is not? He probably got it for free just like she got her Bentley.

Because Beyonce and Jay-Z are fabulously rich, Kris Humphries-Kardashian isn't.

It is estimated that Jay-Z earned 85 million dollars in 2010 and that Beyonce earned 80 million dollars in 2010. Their combined net worth is fast approaching 1 billion dollars.

$5M ring for a couple worth damn-near 1 billion dollars is nothing, but for Mr. Kris Kardashian spending his entire 1 year salary (the ring is actually far more than his year's salary, after tax) is absolutely ridiculous.

But I guess it's worth it for him, because he's now a "star" thanks to Kimmie! I suppose it could turn out to be a wise investment in the long-run. LOL.

Jay-Z earned 85 million dollars in 2010. Beyonce earned 80 million dollars in 2010. Their combined net worth is fast approaching 1 billion dollars.

Um...where did you get the $1B figure?

 

[LP640]

http://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-celebrities/rappers/jay-z-net-worth/

Jay-Z's estimated net worth: $450M (many peg it far higher than 450M, but let's be conservative)

Beyonce's estimated net worth: $300M (and this is from 2008, before her huge world tour)

http://www.celebritynetworth.com/richest-celebrities/singers/beyonce-knowles-net-worth/

Combined is estimated over $750M+ .

They're very rich and $5M ring is a drop in the bucket for them.

 

[lizbabe09]

I read her ring is bigger than Kate Middleton's and I thought that one was big enough. I also don't know how he was able to afford the ring to be honest. He's a pretty mediocre player and would get like 2-3 million before taxes.

 

[eternitygoddess]

Kate Middleton's ring is not that large.

If you look at most royals, their engagement rings are discreet and not ginormous or flashy at all. It's a clear distinction of old money vs. new money.

^ or class VS crass

 

[FASHIONLOVA]

most hollywood celebs have HUGE rings, as if the guy buying her a huge ring means he s not gonna cheat or they re not gonna get divorced.
am happy for Kim FINALLY getting what she always wanted but I am beyond sure they re not gonna last. a younger guy is not the right person for her.
but then again when you think about the guys she has dated, even if she has that huge butt and lots of people think she s pretty...she never dated a big shot or an A list or not even a B list guy.
