Barbara Walters to Kardashians: 'You Don't Have Any Talent!'
FoxNews.com ^ | December 15, 2011 | By Meaghan Murphy

Barbara Walters is telling it like it is when it comes to Kim Kardashian and the rest of her family.

"You don't really act; you don't sing; you don't dance," Walters bluntly told the reality star during an interview taped for “Barbara Walters’ 10 Most Fascinating People of 2011,” as reported by RadarOnline.com. "You don't have any -- forgive me -- any talent!"

Kim, flanked by mom Kris and sisters Khloe and Kourtney, defended her peculiar sort of fame, “I think it’s more of a challenge to go on a reality show and get people to fall in love with you for being you. So, there’s definitely a lot more pressure, I think, to be famous for being ourselves.”

You’re correct Barbara, but who the heck are you to talk?

“Maybe there IS hope for this country after all.”

My thoughts exactly.

It’s high time that someone calls out these pseudo-celebrities and asks them “Seriously, why are you famous? What have you done to earn this attention?”.

Whoring is a talent. Babs has that talent.

Exactly. We should listen to Barbara on this point. She is exceptionally well acquainted with the state of having no talent.

I don’t “watch” regular TV. Who are these people?

What exactly do Kardashians do that makes them famous?

I’ve never heard of them before last spring, and still cant tell if they are actors or do they sell something?

This family is so famous because Kim is so beautiful.

If not for her, the other two would not be famous.

Kim is so beautiful men AND women love her- men would watch this show with the sound turned off and women watch it because they want to be as beautiful as her.

Tell me where I am wrong?

Now if a critical view of Barry’s qualifications, socialist intentions, and the resulting adverse impact to our country could be taken, perhaps there would be hope for this country.

Why does the analogy of Obama calling someone a “Big Spender” come to mind.

That, and they have a very well-connected father. There are a lot of beautiful women in America that have no fame.

I do not agree with Barbara. They are very talented attention hogs, not unlike Barbara herself.

I heard some more of the interview and Babs asks them who is the most vain and they all answer KIM. Then Babs asks who is your mom’s favorite and they all answer KIM. The mom knows where her bread is buttered!

I don't see the beautiful. Inside she comes off as a full throttle egotistical b.
I used to see her kind all the time during my early bartending days.
