Keeping Up with The Kardashian’s

I am a crazy reality TV fan and I have always LOVED the Kardashian’s. I have been keeping up for as long as I can remember. One of my favorite things about this famous family is everyone knows them one way or another. They may know them from dating an NBA Player, a famous rapper or maybe even Kim’s sex tape. You either love to love them or love to hate them, I love to love them!  

Besides all the crazy drama that comes along with this family, I love the fact that lots of their real life experiences that are captured on their show are now well known memes around the world. One of my favourite memes from the show is when they are on a family trip to Bora Bora.

On this trip they are staying in overwater villas and Bora Bora is well known for their crystal clear water. There is a scene where they are fooling around in the water and Kim’s fiancé (at the time) Kris Humphreys playfully throws Kim into the water. At first she is laughing because they are just messing around but she goes to feel her head because he threw her in landing on the side of her head, and that is when she realizes that her diamond earring is gone! She starts to freak out and cries out “oh my god I’m going to cry my diamond earring”. She later states that this earring costs a whopping $75K. Her sister Kylie later swam down to the bottom of the ocean and because the water is so clear she was actually able to retrieve the earring!

This moment from their show has become so well known and popular that it has been used as the brunt of jokes and memes all over the internet. At the time Kim was extremely upset as she had just bought these earrings herself and it was one of her first ever extravagant purchases she made on her own. Now she can look back at this moment and laugh at herself with the rest of us!

This story just really shows how the internet can bring so many people together without you even having to know each other. You could just say the words “oh my god my diamond earring” and some people would know exactly what you’re talking about. That is what I love about the internet and that is also what I love about reality TV. They give us all these great lines to work off of.
