Looks like the Kardashians are finally beginning to understand the secret of their mysterious, pointless celebrity status. On November 3, the members of the Kardashian clan will step into the ring and take a punch—face, kidney, solar plexus, whatever you can reach—from whoever bids highest for the privilege. (Kourtney’s out because she’s pregnant, although her boyfriend Scott Disick will be available. Better luck next year, Kourtney haters!) Proceeds from the event will go the Dream Foundation, which is a worthy enough cause, but the money could go to a ring that kidnaps puppies from orphans for the purpose of vivisection and I’d still be tempted to put down a bid. Kim mentioned she’s in training for the event on her blog:
On November 3 Khloe, Rob, Bruce, Scott and I are being auctioned off for charity!! The winning bidder gets to step into the boxing ring and fight against one of us…. I warn you, bidders, I have been practicing my boxing moves! You may have seen me in FaceBreaker! Hahaha!
Kim’s reference to FaceBreaker shows she’s well aware that many folks would regard punching a Kardashian as living the dream. In fact, the first link in this post even has a poll asking whether you’ve ever wanted to punch a Kardashian. The choices, FWIW, are “no way,” “not really,” and “definitely,” so there’s not much point in checking the results. A more accurate poll would require more realistic options—say, “sometimes,” “frequently,” and “24/7.” You can skew the results in any direction you want depending on how you phrase the questions.
