Kimye Wedding Firenze
 
Is anyone in Florence right now who can comment on the Kardashian/West wedding at Forte Belvedere?

I just wondered if this show caused any travel problems or was just business as usual.

Thanks for any info. you can give.

No, but I guess if they won't let you put on a circus in the Duomo I suppose some half-forgotten fortress will just have to do.

Oh my god - don't we have enough of these clowns in the tabloids? Do they have to be imported into a travel forum too?

I am SO sick of seeing that woman waving her fat bottom all over the world - if everyone wold just ignore her perhaps she would just go away!

It isn't a legal marriage in any case. Just an expensive sham.

Pepper_von_snoot May 24th, 2014 11:11 AM

If any of you Mensa members bothered to read my post I did not ask for comments on the marriage.

I asked if the wedding caused any TRAVEL problems to those in the Centro of Firenze.

Learn to read.

We did read your post Thin. That doesn't mean we can't say what we want in reply.

The Snoot speaks again. Never to be taken seriously.

Why you people gotta be hatin on Kimye?

StCirq May 24th, 2014 07:39 PM

The Italian newspapers I've read don't mention must disruption of tourism, except lots of special police activity outside the hotels she and her sister and the various entourages are staying at. It's kindof a hit-and-run event, so I doubt it will disrupt much of anything.

IMDonehere May 24th, 2014 08:25 PM

Because those two represent everything that is wrong with America's focus and idiotic fascination with people who have no identifiable skills or talents. OK, small concession in you like West. I had no idea where they were or what they were doing until this posting. Why do people have an emotional investment in strangers? Especially egomaniacal children.

Most of Europe doesn't really care who is Kimye is, even though there are reports about them almost daily in the papers.

Seriously, over here, she's just one of creepy Richard Lugner's paid "dates" to attend the Vienna ball.

I have vaguely heard of this woman, but have no idea what she does. I assume that they paid through the nose for the venu. One day of vulgarity might be worth it

hetismij2 May 25th, 2014 01:18 AM

MissPrism, I don't think she does anything. She is famous for being famous as far as I can tell.

kleeblatt May 25th, 2014 01:34 AM

She fails to find clothes that fit her in a flattering way, she has a pout that is only superceded by her now husband's pout and she has a mother who is one smart cookie when it comes to marketing.

I'm probably the only person within 50 miles of where I live who knows who they are. Wonderful. Never any conversation about them.

After seeing this thread, I looked at the "Mail on Sunday" photos this morning, just a couple of murky shots, I would guess the actual photos have been sold to "People" or similar for a bomb. Really trashy looking people--the bride and groom, the family, the guests.

According to the Mail, much of the crowd yesterday were teenage girls who thought Justin Bieber was a guest. More trash.

kleeblatt May 25th, 2014 03:27 AM

The Daily Mail commenters basically all spewed dislike towards these two: all 3,000 commenters.

Suffice to say, they help sell papers.
