Wondering about the popularity of Kim Kardashian ? Learn the secrets behind her celebrity life

Calendar September 1, 2010 | Posted by admin

Do you really know why Kim Kardashian is so popular? Is Kardashian’s fame due to her natural talent or a result of being born into the Kardashian clan Well being from the Kardashian family was no doubt of benefit to Kim. So how are we to to judge if Kardashian has any talent or not? Additionally did Kardashian’s sex tape create most of her fame and does that blot her in some way? It’s also remarkable that while many people believe Kim’s looks are great, many also think she is not charming so that may act against her.

The Kardashian family may not come from talented roots but they do have a history of mixing with other celebrities. Kim Kardashian’s parents were close friends with OJ Simpson for example. Robert Kardashian was the lawyer for OJ Simpson during his much publicised murder trial and after the death of Nicole Brown Simpson. It was well reported that Kris Kardashian was a close friend of Nicole Brown Simpson.

The divorce of Kim Kardashian’s parents didn’t seem to have that much effect on Kim’s life and her mother Kris Kardashian got married with another person named Bruce Jenner. Bruce is a well known face as a former Olympic gold medalist who also performs in reality TV shows. Jenner also shoots for Playgirl magazines and appears on cereal boxes, so he knows how to deal with media. Jenner also stars on Keeping up with the Kardashians.

If you decide to take a more detailed look at the Kardashians it is very easy – watch their reality TV series!. What I have learned from this reality show is, Kim Kardashian has got four sisters – Khloe, Kourtney, Kendall and Kylie. Also Kim’s mother, Kris Kardashian doesn’t seem to be very actively involved in shaping the direction of Kim’s career. From the series, it is easy to see that Kris is more interested about photo shoots involving her daughters than any artistic work which they are involved with. Kris is monitoring minor details while Kim appears to be looking at the larger picture. At times, Kim’s stepfather Bruce seemed quite concerned about the activities of the daughters around the house but mostly doesn’t say much about it. So we can rule out the influence of her family in shaping Kim to be a celebrity super star, if anything Kim has taken them with her on the ride to fame.

Kim Kardashian’s popularity and public profile greatly increased after her sex video with the rapper Ray J was released. After it’s release the video spread all over the internet very quickly. Kardashian’s first reaction was to deny she was involved in the sex tape in any way. Later, after the video was rapidly moving around the Internet Kardashian had to confess her involvement. Vivid Entertainment, the company who released the tape made Kim Kardashian to file suit against the them claiming the proprietor of the sex video. Ultimately Kim made a deal of five million dollars with them for the sex video. I’ll say it was a good business for a celebrity like Kim Kardashian, getting paid for a self-promotional video, which raised her media profile greatly.

invitation from the playboy magazine to pose in the nude photo shoots and she agreed. The outcome even surprised Kim Kardashian herself as she never thought of being the cover page girl of Playboy magazine 2007 December release. Another interesting fact about Kim Kardashian which helped raise her media profile is that she is a former friend of another Hollywood hottie Paris Hilton. Paris and Kim were frequently seen together, partying at new nightclubs and hanging out. Eventually the two decided to stop seeing each other. There were rumors in the press that Paris was envious of Kim but it can’t be said with any certainty. It is a curious chapter in the Kim Kardashian story, how she went from being friends with Paris Hilton to being rivals.

So there you have some information as to why Kim Kardashian has garnered so much media attention and fame. Kardashian is still heavily promoting herself and various products so we will continue to see her for a while yet!

All About Oprah Winfrey – Talk Show Goddess

Calendar August 20, 2010 | Posted by admin

Oprah Gail Winfrey was born in 1954 on the 29th of January. Nowadays she is known for her very successful infotainment talk show ‘ The Oprah Winfrey Show’. This talk show is the most successful talk show ever in American TV history.

Oprah Winfrey is one of the most well-paid talk show hosts there is. She pulls in a whopping $225,000,000 each and every year. But hosting a popular talk show isn´t the only way she makes her money. She has also recently added a weekly XM Satellite Radio show as well as a syndicated daily talk show with Rachel Ray.

Oprah is also well known for her charitable acts. Last year Oprah built a new school in Africa for girls, a $40,000,000 school called the Oprah Winfrey Leadership Academy for Girls.

The Oprah Winfrey show has won many Emmy Awards as a result of the hard work that Oprah has put in since the start of her television career. One of the reasons why Oprah is so loved by millions of people (especially women) all over the world is her very public struggle with personal issues such as obesity. Throughout the years people watching her TV show have been able to accompany Oprah when she tried a new diet, started exercising and when she happily announced her successful weight loss. Being a pioneer when it comes to connecting weight issues to emotional overeating she has been an eye opener to many people.

Oprah is known for more things that just for being a talk show host, presenter and producer. She has played parts in film (the most memorable one being ‘The Color Purple’) and has won an Academy Award for her acting skills. Oprah also publishes her own magazine (the successful ‘O’) and is considered to be the most philanthropic African American of all times.

At 17 Oprah started her career in radio and television working at a radio station in her area of Tennessee. According to her grandmother Oprah occupied herself with other games and toys than regular children. She would spend her time interviewing her dolls and the crows sitting on the fences near her home. She is a perfect example of someone who managed to work her way up from a very poor background living with a mother on welfare. Oprah says that this background made her the successful woman that she is today.

‘The Great Food Truck Race’: Tyler Florence talks about Food Network’s new …

Calendar August 15, 2010 | Posted by admin

The-Great-Food-Truck-RaceBetween Hell’s Kitchen, Masterchef, The Next Food Network Star, Top Chef, and 24 Hour Restaurant Battle, it’s been quite the busy summer for reality food competitions. But just when you thought TV’s proverbial stove top was getting overcrowded, along comes The Great Food Truck Race, a delicious reality concoction sure to simmer in the late summer heat. Sort of a cross between Cannonball Run and Top Chef, The Great Food Truck Race follows seven gourmet food trucks—which serve everything from burgers to crepes, banana pudding to frog legs—in a cross country road trip from Los Angeles to New York, during which the restaurants-on-wheels must test their cooking skills and business savvy to outsell their competitors. Pretty innovative, right? Food Network staple Tyler Florence, who serves as “the host and the axe man” on the surprisingly exhilarating program, talked to EW about his new hosting gig and what kind of ride we should expect from The Great Food Truck Race, which premieres tonight at 10PM on Food Network.

ENTERTAINMENT WEEKLY: How did you get involved with this show?
TYLER FLORENCE: You know what, when new Food Network show ideas pop up, I usually get a phone call to see if the idea is kind of great for the mix, if it’s a good time for everybody, and this felt like a great show at the right time—just because it’s so important to a lot of people right now in the country [given the economy], and a lot of chefs are doing amazing things at a mobile level. It just felt like something that was very important. So, we kicked around the idea with Tom Foreman, who’s the executive producer—he did Extreme Makeover: Home Edition and Kid Nation and a lot of really amazing programming—and we kicked around the creative concept of what the show would be about, and we kind of came up with this concept for The Great Food Truck Race. It was this race across the country with the best food trucks in America, and it was like Cannonball Run.

How does this competition really work? Is this a race, or are contestants judged on their cooking, or is it business-based?
It’s a rock-and-roll business show. [Food trucks are] such an old but a new medium at the same time—they have really been around since the pioneer days, and the idea of taking food trucks and putting them up against each other at a competition level—it’s really hard to say, “I like this, and I like that” from a traditional competition show standpoint, so we really decided to make it about the money. You can’t really compare a taco truck versus a crepe truck because they’re just so different. So, once we get to a new city, the competitors have 72 hours to find the food, find the best position for themselves for the weekend, market themselves to the best of their ability, and make as much money as possible. We put the money together, we count the tally, and whoever made the most amount of money wins a very particular prize for that certain city, and the team that made the least amount of money goes home. And the winner gets $50,000.

Well, I’m intrigued.
It’s a great show because it’s really following these teams live and seeing what their worlds are like because it’s really on the fly.

I think when most people think about eating on the street, they picture little food carts serving pretzels, not gourmet food trucks. Is this a shifting trend?
Well, it started with the economy crashing two years ago. All these really amazing chefs were having a hard time raising $2 million for a restaurant, much less money for a cup of coffee. There were all these really talented guys out there who didn’t have a home, and they realized, “For $2 million, I can build a brick and mortar business, or for about $25,000, I can be in business for myself, and I can be in business for myself next weekend.” It just seemed like a no-brainer. Out of adversity in economic situations, people become very creative when their backs are against the wall about how to create a new economy for themselves, and all of the sudden, this whole new genre that was just parked outside a business complex became this thing that was really cutting edge and very interesting.

Are we going to see different teams shine based on what kind of cuisine is popular in each location?
You’re going to see huge surprises every single episode by what is successful, what’s not successful, who wins, who goes home. You’ll find teams that have little or no business even being in the competition doing very, very well because of their gut-instinct, their drive and determination to win. So, I was blown away just being in the middle of all of it and watching these people really give it their all.

What is your role on the show? Are we going to see you as more of a judge or a mentor?
Well, I’m the host of the show. I tell it like it is—I give people props when they deserve it, and I tell them they’re blowing it when they’re blowing it. Since there’s no real judgment in a sense because the people vote with their wallets, I just tell the guys who won, and then I tell the team who lost. I’m the host and the axe man.

Have you ever had a particularly bad food truck experience?
There are a lot of trucks out there, and obviously some are better than others, and even watching The Great Food Truck Race, you’ll watch some of these teams do amazing things with amazing food, and you’ll watch some teams just blow it. They’re in a different city and the can’t find the food they need, so they have to change the menu around, and then there’s a break down, and it’s sometimes like a domino effect—it really affects the food. The people, like I said, end up judging with their wallets if they want to buy it or not, but it’s always kind of survival of the fittest out on the streets, and when it comes to great food trucks, the really good ones rise to the top.

Do you have any food truck experience?
The reason the show really makes sense for us is that our restaurant Rotisserie and Wine up in Napa—we’re actually starting a food truck with that in October.

What do you think, PopWatchers? Will you be tuning in to The Great Food Truck Race?
