Kim Kardashian Would “Try Anything” To Look Young, Even If That Meant Eating Poo
In news we probably could’ve done without, Kim Kardashian has told The New York Times that she would probably eat literal shit every day, if it kept her looking young.
When you think about celebrities setting unrealistic beauty standards, Kim Kardashian is probably one of the first names that comes to mind. But in a new interview promoting her new skincare line, the reality star-turned-business mogul boasted about her nine-step beauty routine and the extremes she goes to in order to look as good as she does.
“It’s not only a part of my job, it’s who I am,” said Kardashian.
“So many people want to act like they don’t care about how they look. I’m not acting like it comes easier or it’s all natural. You just don’t wake up and use whatever. You wake up, you use ingredients. The P.R.P. facials, stem cell facials, lasers — all of that is work.”
Some real “get your f*cking ass up and work” energy from Kardashian, once again.
But the real kicker of the interview was Kardashian explaining the lengths she’d go to to keep looking young.
“I’ll try anything,” she said. “If you told me that I literally had to eat poop every single day and I would look younger, I might. I just might.”
While it’s easy to blame Kardashian for helping to set such unrealistic standards for women, the mentality that women should desperately cling to the way they looked at 16 by any means necessary is far from a new concept — and definitely not something that the Kardashians created. (That said, they’re probably not helping.)
But alas, if we do not instil a fear that looking a day over 20 is the worst thing a woman can do, the cosmeceutical industry as we know it would collapse. And honestly, where would we be without celebrities and influencers flogging the latest chaotic anti-ageing trends?
Note: No Kardashians were forced to eat their own poop — or anyone else’s poop — in the making of this article.
