I really admire how you handle your family and their careers. I think you are the inspiration behind all of them. I try to do the same with my family, and it isn’t easy.

what an amazing business woman you are! It’s so great for your daughters and family to have such an amazing mentor like yourself. If only more families could have such great business sense!

Kris, I think you are FAB.U.LOUS! As I watch the show, read your book, etc. I was wondering why doesn’t Rob open his own store? It could be called “DASH – ing”…..men’s clothing. I really think he should do that instead of the sock venture :D Just a thought.

I’m not a fan of the Kardashians, but I acknowledge Kris’ business acumen. She is– correct me if I’m mistaken– a self-taught businesswoman. That someone with no formal training in business management has built such an empire is impressive. Yes, she knows what sells. Sex is lucrative, as are weddings, childbirths, emotional turmoils, divorces, etc… She also knows how to engender profit from the above-noted. Got to give it to her. I don’t relate to her family members, but I admit that hers is a tight-knit family. Her children solicit her advice and enlist her help in matters professional and interpersonal. They spend A LOT of time together. That’s good. I don’t in the slightest identify with her children– I favor natural beauty over plastic surgery and cosmetic products, and I favor a clear, resounding voice over baby-voiced prattle– but it must be noted that her children aren’t shooting up or crashing cars or whatnot. Oh, they have a ton of faults: a penchant for conspicuous consumption, cosmetic enhancement, attention, artifice, and dim-witted exchanges among many other unsavory things. But it is clear that they love each other and provide support for each other. I firmly believe the show is scripted– Todd Waterman made a well-timed appearance, didn’t he? That said, Kris knows the audience. She knows there are people who lap up contrived stories such as that one, and she gives it to them. Good for her. I mean, really. When it comes to managing and marketing and networking, she’s no joke.

I think you are most disrespectful to your children and mainly to poor Bruce, you were acting like a young girl wanting to cheat on Bruce by seeing some ex lover who broke up your first marriage and now you want to repeat the same mistake. you are fantasising about him and go against your kids and Bruce’s wishes not to see your ex. I think your kids make more sense than you. Just like watching you forcing Khloe to get dna test done to prove who her father is, but it was all for you, you just wanted to clear your name, all you care about is your image and money. we admire Khloe for not taking the dna test. I think you are not a great person to your husband

Hi Kris, To start you do look fabulous but this is about a subject about how we feel on the inside. I see a strength in you and that’s why I’m taking a risk and reaching out to you. With what I understand about your abilities you are best at promoting and managing and I have a vocation with 26 years in a field that’s is specialized in and of itself, I’m a sober coach-companion, and when I say 26 years I mean of continuous sobriety and have worked in most aspects of the field including with adults and children. I started a grass roots 501c3 which is still helping people over 20 years ago. My point is I need someone like you strong and confident and not afraid of new conquests. You have the resources and I have the knowledge and that makes a great start to helping numerous, endless people on a successful way of life. With the endlesss sea of addiction and people dropping every day there is a fundamental peice missing and unless people have this they’re basically doomed to have history repeat itself. All the Doctor’s in the world won’t help and, I’m not minimizing a Doctor’s importance, it’s a collabration of resources that makes the difference. Any way I hope I hear from you if not I hope the best for you and yours and can already see that they have you and Bruce and that’s a great start for anyone. I’m as ready as I’m going to be to move forward. God Bless. Ann

…”can someone bring in an English teacher or consultant to work on grammer from time to time”???

Kris,

I’m a 49 year old male attorney living in the Midwest but also lived 15 years in Arizona. First, I want to compliment you on your many business and professional achievements and, of course, on the success of your children and spouse. I also admire the diversity of the group of colleagues with whom you deal. It’s refreshing to see you talking to Kenny Babyface Edmonds one minute, Joan Rivers the next, and Oprah the next. Even though “Keeping Up” and the other shows are essentially about rich people, the diversity of the supporting cast and associates is one of the factors (as an Arfrican American man) that has kept me watching.

I want to share a few other observations or suggestions as a fan:

1. Kim is so much more likeable in the show/s now than she was a couple of years ago. She used to be very rigid looking or even unhappy (even before her marriage) but now she seems to have loosened up considerably. Please tell her to keep it up..
2. Please continue to keep Kourtney as a main story line in the show/s. Though I like Kim and Khloe, Kourtney is the only one who has been involved with a regular guy (I know Scott is a bit of a spoiled brat but he’s not a star athlete, entertainment mogul, or major producer). Not to be disrespectful but, in looking back, you were obviously much more open minded when you were their age when you got involved with and married a professional in the beginning of his law career.
3. I don’t mind the cursing from time to time on the show/s but can someone bring in an English teacher or consultant to work on grammer from time to time. The daughters often use the wrong tense of verbs and wrong pronouns.
4. It might be interesting to see the cast (or part of it) take a trip to the heartland of America. People on the coasts sometime refer to it as “flyover country” but places like Chicago, St. Louis, Memphis, Indianapolis, Pittsburgh, Columbus have some interesting destinations and devoted fans, especially those who shop at Sears–one of the daughters’ sponsors.

Well, best wishes to you and your family and.keep up the good work.
