Kourtney doesn't want to raise reality TV kids

Famous mom conflicted over fame and privacy

'Kourtney & Kim Take Miami' '/' E!

 

Much has been made about Kourtney and Kim Kardashian's appearance on "The Late Show with David Letterman" this week.

 

Most media outlets and fans focused on Letterman's ability Wednesday to get Kim to open up about her ongoing divorce, her relationship with rapper Kanye West and her pregnancy.

But one of the interview's overlooked and edifying moments came when Letterman got Kourtney to talk about the conflict she feels as a reality star and as a mother. Her son Mason is 3, and her daughter Penelope is about 6 months old. Kourtney's boyfriend, Scott Disick, is the father.

"I love having them with me and being a mom is my favorite role," Kourtney, 33, said. "I feel so blessed that I get to work with them. There (were) two seasons I didn't have them on and I'm even deciding for the next one what I want to do. I do think as long as they're with me, that we're the happiest."

 

When Letterman joked about Mason getting his own show, Kourtney was adamantly against the idea, even in jest.

 

"That's what I don't want," she said. "And I feel as my son's getting older and he talks more, he's on it a little bit more, and that kind of freaks me out."

 

Hmmm. That's not something Kris Jenner would say. There may be hope for Kourtney yet.

 

"Kourtney & Kim Take Miami" Season 3 kicks off Sunday, Jan. 20, at 9 p.m. ET/PT on E!

I personallly don't have a problem with Kourtney. Besides her relationship issues with Scott, she seems like she is a good mother that loves her kids and is not crazy about attention/cameras. Give the woman a break. She doesn't really care about your opinions anyways

when will this end?  haven't we had enough?  this group of talentless, brainless, and pointless group of Z level "stars," and all the freaks and geeks of this fool "reality" craze are making it so TV watching has become more of a hassle rather than a way to sit back, relax and enjoy some quality television.  what do we have to do to get the media to leave us alone, and quit force feeding us this unrelenting onslought of drivil.  i couldn't give two you know whats about what this stupid group of nobodies are doing.  let it go, i'd be willing it bet a year's paycheck that the Kardashians couldn't care less about my family, why in hell should i care about theirs.

 

and Bruce, grow a pair would ya?  what happened to the Bruce Jenner that, not to long ago was one of the world's finest athletes.  you look like a wuss.  take your manhood back

I've always maintained that there should be tv programs about " work heroes", like first grade teachers, police and fire, and people who make a difference in our day... the little guy... or the person who studied hard and succeeded.... Put ROLE MODELs on tv for our children.  ( I'm a retired teacher.)...... There HAS to be a change in the values that are projected on tv.... Show people studying... hard work... determination.... service.... and caring for others... It's so easy to make the world a better place..... and that's priceless.

I agree with the other person that said why do you read or watch them if you think they are whores and what not .... if you don't like them quit watching and reading about them. or maybe you are jealous about them since you don't have what they have. or maybe you are so fricken lame that you do this jus to make yourself feel better about yourselves so why don't you get a life and shut your mouth because you sound so stupid and you make yourself look really stupid commenting on some people you don't even like and want to talk trash about them everyone has to support their families and if this is how they do it so who are you to say how they do it. it isn't your life or your space to say how they make your money so quit making stupid comments that make you look stupid and sound stupid.

First we need the SO CALLED NEWS media to stop writing articles about the Kartrashians? As for Kim and Kanye if he is happy why does he not EVER smile he looks like the grinch that had Christmas stole from him! I soooo feel sorry for that poor baby it may have parents with money but they are attention whores as is grandma pimp.   And as for Bruce Jenner I have no respect for that whipped wuse, he is a pathetic has been that is bulled by his overbearing tramp wife.

Oh, please!  

The Kardashian's, all of them, are all about the money, so as soon as "their" number is reached, they'll sell out in a heartbeat.  

So-called "reality" television is how stupid Americans have become.  Now we have "all my babies mamas" and "the husbands of hollywood" - when is this idiocy going to stop?

It must be so hard all the problems the Kardashians face with the reality show.   What is a rich, untalented and uneducated girl to do?  Maybe she could donate her millions to the poor, get a real job that pays 15 an hour and see what real problems look like. In the beginning I was a fan but the whole family is just sad money grubbing whores.  If we, the viewing public would stop watching and supporting maybe just maybe they and the evil mom would go away for good.

Side note: I think calling it reality is just misleading their show is so far away from reality.

I doubt that Kris will allow any of the K-grandkids to be exempt from the family "reality??" show.  The only way it could happen...I believe...is if the parents themselves stop being part of the show and I seriously doubt that would ever happen.

Maybe she doesn't want Mason to have his own reality show but she is still putting him out there to be seen on the family's shows.  Just like Kim now wants to be more private.  Had to wait awhile till I stopped laughing at that one.  I think she is afraid of how big she is going to get in another month or so and doesn't want people making jokes.  Wake up  Kim they are already making jokes about your butt and boobs.  And all these interviews she is giving telling about the remodeling of her house.  When you see her and that rapper she is living with, you don't see real affection.  It's like they are fighting to see which one of them gets the best camera angle.  I really don't care about her fame and fortune. I would rather live a life where I can go to the mall or wherever without a camera in my face.  Seems strange we haven't heard or seen mama pimp lately!!!!

Maybe the attention whore should stop doing reality TV if she doesn't want her kids on. By what research shows she is worth 10-15 million,has 2-3 clothing store's and so really doesn't need the money. She also has a husband/boyfriend that can work and support the kids. Really a simple choice, don't sign the contract. Personally I would be content to never hear the Kardashian name again.
