Jon Hamm slams Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian

By Tribute on March 10, 2012 | 16 Comments


Actor Jon Hamm has no problem sharing how he really feels about reality princesses Paris Hilton and Kim Kardashian. “We’re at a place where the idea of being elite is somehow considered a negative. Whether it’s Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian or whoever, stupidity is certainly celebrated,” he told Elle UK. “Being a f**king idiot is a valuable commodity in this culture because you’re rewarded significantly.” This isn’t the first time celebrities have spoken out against reality stars like the Kardashians. Last November, Daniel Craig slammed them for making millions off of behaving “like a f**king idiot on television.” Moneyball star Jonah Hill also told The Huffington Post in December: “The fact that the Kardashians could be more popular than a show like Mad Men is disgusting.” Sounds like Hamm, who stars in the series Mad Men, would agree.

    Good saying! Jon!! Way to go!

    Kudos to Jon for speaking their mind. Words can’t describe my hatred towards the Kardashian clan, Jersey Shore, and all the other morons that are famous (and rich) for NO reason whatsoever.

    err “for speaking HIS mind”

    I love you Jon Hamm more than I ever have! Same with Jonah Hill and Daniel Craig. Kudos to them for speaking up about how they think about those scumbags. The Kardashians, Jersey Shore people, Paris Hilton, and all those a-holes that are famous and rich because they act like complete idiots nedd to disappear. I miss the days when great shows like Modern Family, Mad Men, and The Good Wife got higher ratings than this crap

    The human race are the idiots. We make them rich by watching and writing about them. Actually they are the smart ones. Make money off our stupid behavior.

    Jon Hamm is great(would have loved to have seen him as Superman)and right on the money but so is Er on the above comment if we didn’t pay attention to them they’d go away….let’s try it all together and start celebrating real art and talent.

  7. eeeeeeerrrrrrr... • March 10, 2012 @ 11:35 PM

    I have absolutely no idea who this man is but….now, he’s pretty much my hero. hahahaha

    eeeeeeeerrrrrrr – Jon Hamm plays Don Draper on Mad Men. All I can say is YEAH JON!!

    And I agree….. the Kardashians et al are rich and famous because other idiots watch them!

  9. TheTruth • March 11, 2012 @ 10:18 AM

    I think the Hilton’s and Kardashians were rich long before anyone started watching any of their terrible mindless TV shows.

    Any guy claiming to have never looked at pics or have done a search for sex tapes of either Kim or Paris via googs is a liar liar pants on fire!

  10. TheTruth • March 11, 2012 @ 10:23 AM

    Oh yea and Jon Hamm way to give them even more attention. Though I’m pretty sure Paris and Kim are just actors as well playing stupid overtly feminine gals to make lots of money off of puberty struck boys and wannabe popular high school girls.

    Could not agree with Hamm and Hill any more- also agree with the comment by Er– these two idiots are just feeding off the general dumbing down of our society–a show like Jersey Shore is a perfect example of this–how shite like this continues to be popular is a great illustration that nobody wants to think or to be challenged anymore–as to the comment that these two are actors just playing a role is giving them both way too much credit–they are both laughing all the way to the bank

  12. Germain • March 12, 2012 @ 5:36 PM

    Any publicity is good publicity for reality stars, why do you think those tapes leaked in the first place, hell, Kardashian even had a camera man filming them, and you tell me they didn’t plan to get that out there.

  13. Nobody Important • March 13, 2012 @ 1:33 AM

    Paris used her sextape to build her celebrity status, and Kim most definitely staged her sextape… in fact, Laurence Fishburne’s Daughter got into porn for the very same reason. It’s sad and pathetic. My only solace is that these people don’t know how to save their money, and beauty’s fleeting.

    I have no idea who this absolutely gorgeous man is because I thankfully don’t watch tv, but do we need him to be telling us this? Anyone, even a non-tv watcher knows these people are idiots. Does that make sense?

    Just a note on June 25 2014. Really quite strange that Kanye West and Kim Kardashian now wants to build a hospital in her home to help keep her and baby North safe. Do they understand that it is not the room itself that keeps them safe, but the caregivers who would be called upon in an emergency? Further evidence of how shallow these people are. Again, why am I even thinking about this:)

    All I took in was baby has Down Syndrome. I logically knew it wasn confirmed, but it might as well have been.
