The stars of Keeping Up With the Kardashians have been a part of several heartbreaking moments, and today, we're going to focus on Kim Kardashian's most notable dramas. Kim and her famous family members have been accused of making sure that they stay on fans' minds, no matter what it takes. This may be part of the reason why everyone in the reality TV clan has had controversies. Truth be told, when it comes to stirring up a scandal, no other Kar-Jenner even comes close to Kim.
From the beginning of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kim has been at center stage. She may just be the queen of the show. A lot of people comment on the controversial outfits she wears. Others talk about her infamous sex tape. She has had more than a few dramatic moments on the show and some offscreen scandals too. Some of these scandals got so much buzz that they are now a part of pop culture history.
Kim's 72-Day Marriage To Kris Humphries
The Kardashians and Jenners are keen on dating basketball players (Kendall Jenner just shared a photo dump with Devin Booker), and Kim went all in by marrying one. The 40-year-old beauty married Kris, a former Utah Jazz player, in August 2011. However, she filed for divorce in October of the same year. Many fans were shocked that Kim and Kris split up so fast. Their marriage became one of the shortest Hollywood marriages ever. Interestingly, many people believe that Kim married Kris for publicity.
The KKW Beauty "Blackface" Controversy
The "blackface" controversy has got to be one of Kim's biggest scandals ever. Many Keeping Up With the Kardashians viewers may remember that Kim did a controversial photoshoot when she was promoting her beauty line, KKW Beauty. She released images for her beauty line and people thought that she looked a lot different than usual. Her skin color seemed unrealistically dark to them, which triggered some major backlash. Many social media users accused her of deliberately darkening her skin. They were offended by what she had done. She said she was sorry.
Kimye & Taylor Swift Feud
A massive drama erupted at the 2009 Video Music Awards. Kanye stormed the stage to protest Taylor Swift's award. The rapper, who is now sparking dating rumors with model Irina Shayk, said that Beyoncé's Single Ladies video was one of the best videos of all time. In 2016, Kanye released his song, "Famous," which featured the words, "I feel like me and Taylor might still have sex / Why? I made that b*tch famous." Taylor hit back, "There are going to be people along the way who try to undercut your success or take credit for your accomplishments and your fame."
Then, Kim became a part of the equation. She claimed that Taylor had approved the song's lyrics. Taylor denied this, but Kim didn't stop there. She posted another video showing Taylor calling the song a "compliment." Taylor then dealt with a barrage of Kimye fans, who flooded her Instagram with snake emojis.
Kim Was The Victim Of A Robbery In Paris
A heartbreaking offscreen tragedy took place in October 2016, when Kim was robbed at gunpoint in Paris. The SKIMS founder was able to flee. However, $10 million worth of jewels were stolen, including her $4 million emerald-cut diamond engagement ring. Kim's reaction was documented in an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians. There were skeptics who wondered if the entire robbery was staged for viewership and ratings. However, these critics were too cynical. One of the alleged robbers has already been arrested and is awaiting trial. He has also written a memoir, in which he claimed, "Everything went smoothly."
Kim is a Keeping Up With the Kardashians reality star who has scaled heights in her career. However, she's also had some lows. In terms of the robbery, she was in a frightening situation that must have been extremely traumatic for her. In other cases, her scandals weren't as serious. No matter what happens, Kim stays strong.
