Bruce Jenner and the Wimpy Kardashians

Last week some of the Kardashian girls, at the behest of the pa-in-law Bruce Jenner, took to the boxing ring for charity. The event, organized by Jenner, was obviously a publicity stunt with charity overtones more than anything else. As it turned out though, the matches (if one could call them that) did reveal something important about this family – they are wimps.

Ole Bruce decided to put the Kardashian honor on the line with another carnival act called “The Kardashian Charity Knock Out“, a while back. The event was organized to put Kardashian fans or haters, which ever the case, in the boxing ring with Jenner and family members. In short, a sort of “win-win” where Jenner and his step-family got more publicity, the family’s favorite charity, The Dream Foundation, got some cash. Not a bad idea huh? Well, for witnesses of the event, and eventually the charity, Jenner and his wimpy family were pitiful.

First off, younger brother Rob Kardashian got his clock cleaned and was carried off to the hospital, later being diagnosed with a concussion. After the event was stopped for an hour (no doubt so the family could gasp, coo, and kaw in horror and fear), Kim took to the ring clad in her pink boxing ensemble. Her opponent reportedly pummeled her like a blow up doll, giving the bombshell at least one black eye. Pappa Bruce was up next, probably against a paraplegic given the event’s opponent selection criteria, and the former Olympic legend actually managed to win his match. As for the other combatants, sister Khloé Kardashian and daddy squeeze Scott Disick – they chickened out in front of the taping crew all together. All that can be said is; “Poor Dream Foundation charity recipients,” the resolve of your benefactors is unenviable.

These celebrity cows and goofy Bruce Jenner take up more news space than Obama, and why? Pitiful comic relief for a weary world I suppose. The people who won the right to box the ears off these prima donnas did not even get their money’s worth! At least for Kim there was the saving grace that she actually went through with it and took her licks. She reportedly Tweeted the next day; “I have a black eye!” As for Disick, the only guy left to uphold the “pugilistic bargain” orchestrated by Jenner? I don’t know how he will be able to show his effeminate face after this.

Oh well, I guess it can all be blamed on the poor screening of contestants by Chet Koerner’s TKO Boxing Promotions and PR Entertainment, Inc. The list of criteria for the Kardashians’ opponents reads like a book with all the especially “fluffy” rules and regulations. No doubt someone will get sued over this in the end, Rob is already whining that his opponent was a pro. They actually sold tickets to this fiasco, if you can believe that? Well Bruce, this is just another one to chock up on your wall a fame along with that Olympic Gold. I hope you guys never had to do anything really hard like work for a living. Wimpy, really wimpy.
