My good friend Randy Jernigan is a successful celebrity journalist, screenplay writer and has even authored a diet cookbook.
And guess what? The 54 year old is totally obsessed with the Kardashians! Really, no joke.
The Losing to Win! author was recently interviewed by a New York radio station promoting his upcoming Ellen DeGeneres bio when he reluctantly admitted to the listeners that he's totally obsessed with watching the reality show 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' and just can't get enough of the show.
"Actually I don't watch a lot of television but I'll admit I'm quite taken with the Kardashians. I never miss an episode. I've sat for hours on end watching reruns of the show and I'm honest when I say I'm addicted.
"It's a funny thing, when I caught my first episode a couple of years ago I thought to myself, who in the hell would watch this stuff? Then I found myself flipping through the channels to see if I could find them on--then before I knew it I was hooked."
And apparently Randy's not the only one watching. According to TV rankings, the Kardashian's reality show is listed near the top for television viewing. Go figure.
When asked if he thought the Kardashians get a fair shake in the media, Randy came to their defense saying:
"Honestly, I think the family gets a bad rap. Especially Kris, I think they're a genuine group of people. I've actually interviewed a couple of members of their family for various magazine pieces and I was very impressed. They're smart people and I believe they truly love and support each other. And you know what, who are we to judge?"
So what do you think of the Kardashians?
