I dunno, Kim Kardashian has brought multiple wildly-successful mobile apps to market with a consistency that exceeds most publicly-traded companies trying to make mobile games. As someone who aspires to make apps that reach a broad audience, I find no slight in being compared to her.
- tommynicholas 10y agoExactly. I believe it was MEANT to be insulting, but Kim K isn't the joke everyone makes her out to be. I think she's a genius. Whether you agree with the image she puts out and how it may impact culture, she's totally in control at all times and has turned her fame into commercial success better than almost anyone in recent history.
- askafriend 10y agoI absolutely agree. She's done what many with far more resources and VC funding haven't been able to do. Just the way she was able to build her now incredibly strong brand over the years is a testament to her knowing exactly what she's doing. She then successfully leveraged that to build very successful apps and games that people love playing and using. Many many people with far more fame and brand appeal than her haven't been able to replicate this and probably couldn't if they tried.
- tommynicholas 10y agoShe was briefly "famous for being famous", but not particularly famous at that point. Her empire was built based on her (and her family and her organization's) fantastic execution from then until now.
- ghhtyt112 10y agoShe probably is smart. Dig this: She knew someone was there was a leak to the yellowrags of some of her privately circulated pic, among friends and family. So when her baby was born, she sent different pics to different friends. She did the equivalent of <email>.$site@gmail.com to smoke out the sellout.
