It’s June 2011. “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” has just debuted its sixth season and the world is still reeling from discovering a new kind of celebrity — the reality star. Kim Kardashian is rising through the ranks as one of the world’s biggest stars and there’s still plenty of gossip about her, erm, intimate video with Ray J — and, apparently, Reese Witherspoon is feeling a little shady.
Witherspoon took a subtle dig at Kardashian and, seemingly, other famous reality stars like Paris Hilton or Nicole Richie while accepting the Generation Award at the MTV Movie Awards. Witherspoon made her feelings about reality stars pretty clear, telling the audience (via Us Weekly), “I get it, girls, that it’s cool to be a bad girl, but it is possible to make it in Hollywood without doing a reality show.” She then seemingly referenced Kardashian’s sex tape, noting, “When I came up in this business, if you made a sex tape, you were embarrassed and you hid it under your bed,” before joking, “And if you took naked pictures of yourself on your cell phone, you hide your face, people! Hide your face!” Shade!
As for what Kardashian had to say about the whole thing? Well, TMZ paparazzi caught up with her that same night where she appeared to throw just a little subtle shade back by admitting she was blissfully unaware of Witherspoon’s remarks.
