Biz: Reebok’s EasyTone shoes didn’t exactly have a kick-butt day

  • claim In 2009, Reebok launched these shoes called EasyTones, which they said would help you exercise while merely walking around. They also claimed they would make your butt and legs get toned. Kim Kardashian wore them.
  • rebuttal However, consumers saw through these shady claims, as did the FTC’s Bureau of Consumer Protection, which led to a settlement for the fairly massive sum of $25 million bucks. Butt-toning never cost so much. source

Culture: Laurence Fishburne’s daughter using porn as a career plan?!

  • I’ve watched how successful Kim Kardashian became and I think a lot of it was due to the release of her sextape.
  • A quote reportedly attributed to Montana Fishburne • Regardng her planned career path as a porn star. The daughter of the “Matrix,” “Pee-Wee’s Playhouse” and “Apocalypse Now” (remember that?) actor apparently filmed a tape with Vivid Entertainment which will apparently be released in August. Unlike her hero, she’s actually TRYING to get her name out using porn. Is this what our society has come to? Seriously? source
