The Kardashians are often described as "sweet"
by people who know them.
But like everything else with the Kardashians,
you have to wonder just how real that is.
After all, there are several other famous
people that the Kardashians have been less
than sweet with over the years.
Here's a look at some of the people the Kardashians
treated like trash.
Lamar Odom
The Kardashian family adored Lamar Odom when
he and Khloe were together and happy after
their whirlwind courtship in 2006.
After they split in December 2013, however,
things got ugly.
While Odom was certainly no saint, confessing
to using drugs and cheating on Khloe during
their marriage, some insiders say the family
deliberately exploited the troubled former
NBA star for their own fame and reality TV
ratings.
In August 2015, Odom was reportedly set up
by Khloe for some orchestrated tabloid drama
in order to generate content for Keeping up
with the Kardashians.
And when he overdosed at a brothel two months
later, his recovery was filmed for the show
as well.
That's really not cool.
Reggie Bush
Kim Kardashian dated NFL star Reggie Bush
off and on from 2007 to 2010, and the relationship
wasn't exactly a smooth one.
Amber Rose revealed to Star, "Kim is one of
the main reasons why me and Kanye [West] are
not together.
She's a homewrecker!
[Kim and West] were both cheating on me and
Reggie with each other … She was sending
pictures, and I was like, 'Kim, just stop.
Don't be that person.'"
Kim also aired her and Bush's dirty laundry
on Keeping Up With The Kardashians after she
and Bush split for good, filming an emotional
phone call from the running back about her
fling with fellow football player Miles Austin.
Stay classy, Kim!
Amber Rose
Wrecking Amber Rose's proverbial home with
Kanye West was only the beginning of the Kardashians'
poor treatment of the bald beauty.
In February 2015, Rose made a remark about
17-year-old Kylie Jenner's reported relationship
with rapper Tyga, who was eight years her
senior.
Khloe responded on Twitter by referencing
Rose's past as a stripper at 15 years old.
Rose clapped back referencing Kim's sex tape,
using a whole lot of words we're not going
to repeat.
Kris Humphries
Kim and NBA star Kris Humphries were married
for just 72 days before she filed for divorce
in 2011.
When Humphries attempted to get an annulment
on the base of fraud instead of a divorce,
his aunt told The Sun that the Kardashians
"duped" the NBA star.
Unfortunately for Humphries, he couldn't get
an annulment, despite his claims that the
marriage was just a ploy for ratings, and
he walked away from the divorce with nothing.
After the divorce led to bad press for Kim,
though, the family went on the offensive,
reportedly using creative editing and staged
footage so they could make themselves look
like the victims.
"We have an amazing fanbase that watches the
show.
I.. uh..
You know… we don't do anything for ratings."
A source told Radar Online, "[Kim will be
portrayed] as the victim, and [Humphries]
will definitely be the bad guy…
Kim will be using the show to attempt to rehab
her image."
Since the split, Khloe has publicly called
Humphries a "f**king loser," while Kourtney
said on TV that he wasn't famous enough for
the family to use him publicity.
"Buf if I think she was going to do it for
publicity she should picked someone that people
knew."
Caitlyn Jenner
Former Olympian Caitlyn Jenner has seen the
Kardashian clan from the inside, and she doesn't
like what she's seen from ex-wife Kris Jenner
and the kids since they became famous.
In 2015, Caitlyn told Vanity Fair that their
relationship changed as soon as Kris got rich
from Keeping up the with Kardashians.
"When that hit and she was running this whole
show and getting credit for it and she had
her own money, she didn't need me as much
from that standpoint.
The relationship was different.
I think in a lot of ways she became less tolerant
of me.
… A lot of times she wasn't very nice.
People would see how I got mistreated.
She controlled the money … all that kind
of stuff."
Needless to say, Kris doesn't see it that
way.
"Everything she says is all made up.
Why does everything have to be that 'Kris
is such a b---- and an a------?"
Since then, Caitlyn has been almost entirely
cut out of the lives of the girls she raised
as her own daughters, revealing in 2017 that
neither Kim nor Khloe speak to her … except
when they need more TV ratings.
Scott Disick
Perhaps nobody has been as publicly used and
abused as Kourtney's on-again, off-again ex
Scott Disick.
Their relationship issues and his problems
with addiction have been two of the driving
sources of drama on the TV show for years.
Disick, who reportedly has struggled with
alcoholism since the breakup, is on record
saying that he believes that the Kardashians
go out of their way to make him appear as
a villain on the show.
The Beliebers
You know something's gone wrong when Justin
Bieber is considered a victim.
But it's true: according to Bieber himself,
the singer believes he was used by Kourtney
as part of a scheme by the Kardashians to
generate media attention and to make Scott
Disick jealous.
That's especially gross, considering he reportedly
already had a fling with Kourtney's sister
Kendall in 2014.
Kendall was supposedly a friend of Bieber's
girlfriend Selena Gomez, which is just one
reason Gomez was surprised to walk in on Kendall
and Bieber in bed together.
Add in the fact that Kendall's other BFF,
Hailey Baldwin, also supposedly had a fling
with Bieber at the same time, and you have
a situation that's not only really confusing,
but also too icky to think about.
Let's move on to…
Rita Ora and Blac Chyna
Rob Kardashian trashed ex Rita Ora so badly
that his putdowns became a trending topic
on Twitter.
In a since-deleted tweet Rob, who was rumored
to be dating Ora at the time, said of an unnamed
girlfriend, "How can a woman who is so busy
starting her own career have time to be with
so many dudes all while in a relationship?!
She cheated on me with nearly 20 dudes while
we were together.
I wonder how many she will sleep with now
that we apart?
But I mean 20?!!!"
Rob has also publicly dissed on-again, off-again
girlfriend Blac Chyna more than once.
Unsurprisingly, the whole family got in on
the act when they leaked news of Blac Chyna's
pregnancy to the press before she even had
a chance to tell her own family.
Hey, once you're on the media hamster wheel,
there's no way off it.
Kanye West
Kanye West elevated the Kardashian brand when
he married Kim, and they repaid him by exploiting
his November 2016 breakdown for ratings.
"I get a call from one of Kanye's friends.
And my heart drops. But what is he like...
This is, like, serious."
And in May 2017, amid rumors that Kim and
West's marriage was in trouble, In Touch Weekly
reported that the family plans on exploiting
their marital discord for ratings.
"[Producers are] pressuring Kim to discuss
her marriage problems on Keeping Up With the
Kardashians…
They've had an unbelievable nine-year run.
The problem is the show is overplayed.
How many times can Scott Disick go to rehab?"
Or… maybe they just need to finally go away.
