Kim Kardashian Made Over To Look Like One Of Us

Here’s a trend I’d like to see die—sending oh-so-drop-dead-gorgeous celebrities “undercover” as one of the commoners by giving them layers of chub and ugly makeup. Tyra did it first, getting made-under to look like a “fat” woman so she could see what it was like to be one (coincidentally, that episode re-aired today). Then Vanessa Minnillo essentially copycatted her for “Entertainment Tonight.” Now Kim Kardashian has undergone a three-hour makeover process so she could be on some ridiculous new show on E! called “Secret Celebrity.” Hey, here’s a newsflash: Making over a celeb to look like a “regular” person (i.e., a non-celeb) doesn’t mean you have to give them fugs hair and a weird chin. OK? [ONTD]

Why does being one of “the civilians” mean donning a fat suit?

Hmm, I don’t see much of difference between that pic and how she normally looks. Weird.

I think Tyra had a good reason for doing it and executed it well. These other examples, not so much.

Made over to look like one of us ? mmmmm… did they use a industrial size ace bandage to flatten down that ass of hers ?

Tired of the fat suit trend. It’s a ratings gimmick. Not one of the women I’ve seen wear them (Tyra, Vanessa Minillo) is in the dark about how fat women are perceived and treated. Plus, they go way overboard for their reaction. You don’t have to don a 350 pound fat suit to be treated like a parriah. Just sport a belly pooch or some ass padding and make it known that you aren’t pregnant. Tyra, of all people, should know that.
I’ve seen plenty of “civilians” who put Kim Kardashian to shame. As a bonus, they aren’t whiny, entitled, attention-seeking brats. Another bonus… their purpose in life isn’t derived from having boring sex on tape with Brandy’s brother.

I don’t get why the have to seriously ugly up “celebrities” to make them “regular” people. I have seen many beautiful women, and men, of all shapes and sizes and none of them were celebrities. It saddens me that the producers of these shows think to make celebrities look normal they need to be hideous, it’s a sad commentary on our culture.
And I don’t think Kim Kardashian is all that great looking any way, I’ve seen some “normals” that look better than her. AND curly hair can be gorgeous.

@Amy Nope curly hair does not equal fugs at all. I love curly hair and wish I had it a lot of the time. This particular wig on Kim’s head, however, is fugly. But not because it’s curly.

Kim said she was scared. And she should be, poor baby – the stylist must have pulled a pic from some relative’s ‘80s family photo album for inspiration. ‘Cause, you know, the common person cannot be saved.
//Kim Kardashian needs to walk around like this on a full-time basis. This is definitely a bitch I could go to T.G.I. Fridays with after work and guzzle on Electric Lemonades while freaking on our bar stools to Starpoint. And on the ride home, I’d promise to be polite and barf in the seat pocket in the back of her ‘87 Nissan Sentra (in metallic baby blue). That’s what the back pocket is for.// [snickering] Love it.
The hair? Nah, curly was not implied as what was ugly. Just the pic’s cheap insinuation of the whole look with slapped on cliché hair/makeup tricks.

Note-i know plenty of “regular” people that beat Tyra in the looks AND personality department. Likewise Kim, plus they don’t have that whiny,talk-too-damn-much quality. I’ll take a “regular” person every single day over these wanna-be-talk-show-hosts, pretend porn actresses, and all of hollywood’s “can’t see the real looks for the maybellene” characters!

i agree with everyone that regular ppl arent necessarily fat juice pigs, but what could these celebs do to go unrecognized? and i think i might have recognized her butt anyway. epic.

Why is being curvy always portrayed as “unfortunate” by celebrities? I know alot of men who’d much rather take Kim Kardashian like that than how she normally looks. Men may say “She’s hot”, but most women who have good relationships know that men don’t like high-maintenence women. They don’t want you to look over-processed and they definitely don’t want to take you out looking like a skank so other men can drool over your goodies.

Why don’t they just remove celeb makeup? Look at Mariah without it - unrecognizable.

How to Make Kim Kardashian look like “one of us”
Step 1: Ignore her
Step 2: Stop reading about the stupid stuff she does for publicity
Step 3 Now she’s just like one of us!

The real issue SHOULD be “who cares?????” This is a person is famous for having sex on tape. That’s her claim to fame, and apparently it’s working for her and her worthless family. She has no discernable talent or reason to have all this attention heaped on her. Anyone watching these idiotic shows and\or buying the products these losers “design” needs to stop. Being a party to the media whoredom will only increase her bank acocunt and guarantee her face being in the news every 3 seconds.
geesh

if being chubby or overweight or fat or fugly or “normal” is such a bad thing, then why are all the hollywood hottie sluts changing partners every 10-15 working days? jennifer aniston, for instance, may have a “great” body, but, c’mon, half of hollywood guys have seen it and been inside it, and that doesn’t keep them around. maybe being thin or having a great body is nature’s way of asking forgiveness for making the person so unattractive and vacuous inside.

I find this so demeaning. What so all “normal people” are fat and have curly hair? What they should is just take the makeup off some of these celebs…then they look “normal” just like the rest of us.

What about dressing up as someone who is famous for a leaked sex tape. Why is she still relevant?

It is pretty arrogant to assume that to make her look like a “regular” person requires to ‘ugly her up’, I know many women far more beautiful than she is.
@rowdygirl- right on sister.

That is so infuriating of them. Like many of yall have said, I have seen plenty of beautiful men and women who are not celebrities, and becoming a regular person does not mean becoming ugly, with a nasty gap tooth (just that one, as I’ve seen some lovely spaces in teeth), weird-ass barbie pink skin color, odd double chin, and ugly wig that gives curly hair a bad name.
If she really wanted to look normal, she’d make everyone stop retouching her photos and she’d take off all that makeup.
Thirdly, I’d respect this more if the show was about making her ugly. Saying that this is what “normal” people look like is insulting.
PS. There are plenty of ugly celebrities.

Curly hair is anything but fugly. All you need is a killer attitude and you can rock anything.

This gold digging broad makes me sick! Maybe I should leak a boot leg sex tape with a celeb’s(who by the way isn’t as famous as she used to be) off brand little brother and then I can be famous and call the rest of the world ugly too. How dare she! There are beautiful people all over this planet and if the cameras got hold of them, the gold digging Khardasian sisters would be out of a show. Tyra is wrong as a hell for that fat suit, I’m sure she didn’t have to be 350 lbs to be regular. And I agree that are definately some ugly celebrities in the world.

ashsass24>> Thank you! I’m just very aware that curly hair is almost always depicted as ugly or “before”. Like, in “The Princess Diaries”, when the girl is transformed and refined, her curly hair is straightened and thus “fixed”. It’s a common theme.

That’s why I love a regular crappy normal paycheck every week, cuz I don’t have to dream up stupid sh#t for money or prostitute to keep my electric on. The only celebs that look normal without makeup is George Clooney and Colin Farrell and they stay hottt 24/7. The women celebs take that makeup off, they actually look worse than the normal everyday people and makes you want to say “d**n put that makeup back on! Please!!!” and they obviously still have to worry about paying that electric.
Makes me thankful I am regular and common.
