Mad Men actor Jon Hamm has defended his recent comments that he made about Kim Kardashian, where he appeared to accuse her of being stupid.. Jon has claimed that he was not having a personal dig at Kim Kardashian but was making more of a point about society and cultural acceptance of stupidity.
Jon had previously claimed, "We're at a place where the idea of being 'elite' is somehow considered a negative. Whether it's Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian or whoever, stupidity is certainly celebrated." However, he has now admitted to E! News that he meant no offence by the comment.
Hamm explained, "It's surprising to me that it has become remotely a story. I don't know Ms. Kardashian, I know her public persona. What I said was meant to be more on pervasiveness of something in our culture, not personal, but she took offence to it and that is her right."
Since Jon Hamm made his initial comment, Kim Kardashian has hit back, claiming that she is not stupid or dumb and does, in fact, run a successful business.
Do you think Jon Hamm was right to make derogatory comments about Kim Kardashian?
