Oh, to be a celebrity who is a celebrity for the sake of being a celebrity. Kim Kardashian<\/a>, who stars in the E! channel’s hit reality series Keeping Up With The Kardashians<\/em>, is well paid. Kardashian has a contract with in-stream advertising company Ad.ly to plug products, reportedly for an obscene amount of money – $10,000 per tweet!\"kim<\/p>\n

I’m not sure what that comes out to per second, but let’s do a little math. If an average tweet is 20 words, that’s $500 a word. Ugh.<\/p>\n

But, not all is wine and roses for our little Kimmy. Apparently, the doctor behind Dr. Siegal’s Cookie Diet<\/a> has sued her for allegedly defaming him on Twitter. Heck, all she has to do is write a couple hundred words, and hand the income over to the Cookie Doc, and be done with it.<\/p>\n

Last October, it is alleged that Kardashian tweeted that Dr. Sanford Siegal was “falsely promoting” that she was on the Cookie Diet. “Not true! I would never do this unhealthy diet! I do QuickTrim!<\/em>,” is what she allegedly posted on her Twitter page. “If this Dr. Siegal is lying about me being on this diet, what else are they lying about? Not cool!”<\/em><\/p>\n

In a lawsuit filed last week in a Florida state court, Siegal alleges that what Kardashian has said is false and defamatory. The diet doctor also says that she was on QuickTrim’s payroll at the time.<\/p>\n

It is believed that some of her advertisers include Reebok EasyTone<\/a> and fast food chain Carl\u2019s Jr., the latter of which recently featured her in an ad for their new salads.<\/p>\n

So, not only is she a master thespian on her very own TV show, but brilliant prose like this nets her (allegedly) 10k:<\/p>\n

“Ummm hell yes! Khloe has lost 25 lbs! I lost my last annoying 6 or 7 lbs! RT @BrittGriff1 @KimKardashian does it really work?”<\/em>, regarding diet product QuickTrim<\/a>.
\n<\/em><\/p>\n

Good work if you can find it.<\/p>\n
