Not All Muslims riot over Kim Kardashian in Bahrain

Americans are tired of Kim Kardashian because she doesn’t really do anything. In Bahrain, they think she’s doing too much.

U.S. television celebrity Kim Kardashian brought out screaming fans, angry Muslim hardliners and police throwing stun grenades on Saturday when she visited Bahrain to launch a milkshake franchise, witnesses said.

About 100 Sunni Salafists demonstrated with banners outside The Walk Bahrain, an upmarket mall in the capital Manama, after some MPs tried to block the visit over what they called her “bad reputation”, according to a local newspaper…

Witnesses said police dispersed the demonstrators with stun grenades as the inauguration proceeded inside…

Kardashian stirred controversy even before she arrived in Bahrain from Kuwait, where she opened another store last week.

Hardline Sunni Muslim MPs presented a motion to parliament calling her “an actress with an extremely bad reputation”, according to Bahrain’s English language Gulf Daily News.

Well, that’s just ridiculous and unfair. Kim Kardashian can’t act.

Garish, synthetic, filled with preservatives… plus, she sells milkshakes.
