This describes the whole "beauty" industry. I think this might be a case of "don't hate the player, hate the game". There are also plenty of other celebrities whose success amounts to appearing on some reality TV show and building an empire off of that. Kim Kardashian is not remarkable in this regard, but seems to get more hate than average.
- cwkoss 4y agoI think the majority of beauty industry 'personalities' are assholes. Some are finding success without manufacturing insecurity though, so I don't think it has to be table stakes.
- tremon 4y agodon't hate the player, hate the game I think it's perfectly sensible to hate the players that perpetuate the game. It's nothing more than a very weak version of the Nuremberg defense.
