Kim Kardashian's curves cost Skechers HOW much money?? I'm Alex and I've got the scoop
on the reality star's scandal of the week, coming up on The Buzz.
Shoe company Skechers is being forced to pay up - about 50 million dollars - after a misleading
ad for their Shape-Ups sneakers featuring Kim Kardashian was determined to be false
advertising. The ad, which debuted during the 2011 Super Bowl, claimed that people who
wear Shape-Ups would lose more weight and gain more muscle tone than they would by wearing
regular fitness shoes, essentially boasting that these shoes were the ticket to Kardashian-style
curves. Do you think Kim should be held responsible for fooling her fans? Sound off in the comments
and check back for more Kardashian buzz from SideReel.
