Appearing on The Today Show with his Mad Men co-stars, Hamm stuck to his guns and stood by remarks he made about Kardashian and fellow reality TV star Paris Hilton in a recent interview.
"We're at a place where the idea of being 'elite' is somehow considered a negative," he said in the new April issue of Elle UK magazine. "Whether it's Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian or whoever, stupidity is certainly celebrated.
"Being a f**king idiot is a valuable commodity in this culture because you're rewarded significantly," he opined.
"And incuriousness has become cool. It's celebrated. It doesn't make sense to me."
Burger King!? Jonathan, you are bragging about how great Kim is because of how many peeps wouldn’t recognize Jon at a fast food joint??? You are equating how to measure Kim Kardashian’s universally mocked life and Jon Hamm’s shinning career with how people who would recognize them at BURGER KING! ? So according to this idea, how many people recognize you at a mall is the barometer of a great career? How many people at Jonathan Cheban’s hypothetical mall (that Jon Hamm just happens to be chillin’ and illin’ at) would recognize Joe Biden, the Vice President of America? Not sure, but I don’t think AMC’s target audience for their multi Emmy-Award winning show is the patrons of a mall Burger King. If I stumbled into Kim, Joe or Jon after picking up the newest Twilight shirt at my local mall's Hot Topic, the only one I wouldn’t want to talk to is Kim Kardashian. I’ve already killed enough brain cells with too many vodka Diet Cokes – I don’t need to make myself any stupider.
Moronic people like Jonathan Cheban, with skewed views of fame and what is important, constantly amaze me. America’s fascination with pretty but worthless people doing stupid sh*t is why Jersey Shore is gearing up to film its sixth season. That show was funny for half a season and then it just made me sad about humans.
So back to the interview at hand: Cheban's also took a big dig at about Hamm's staying power. "It's a lot of work, and she's here to stay. Let's see where he is after Mad Men."
Oh very funny, tough guy. Where is Jon Hamm, the recent star of Sucker Punch, 30 Rock, Bridesmaids and Friends with Kids, going to be after Mad Men ends? How About: Still super famous, rich as sin and starring in a ton of projects. That’s my guess. Get real, fancy PR Man, I barely even remember your name by the end of this story …
Guess we know who won’t be coming to my Mad Men season five viewing party on Sunday night! But that’s good ‘cause What’s His Face – and his hair are NOT invited.
