I root for Khloe Kardashian to succeed as I do most people.
She is in the public spotlight, which can be difficult even if one decides to put oneself there for the benefit of wealth or fame or whatever.
I like her, however, and even more so her husband, NBA player Lamar Odom, who seems like a decent, sweet and funny man along with his obvious on-court skills. I also hope they can reconcile their troubled marriage, said to be on the rocks earlier this week.
The few times I caught 'X Factor', which she hosted last season with Mario Lopez (who will reportedly return as solo host), Kardashian was an odd combination of posing, preening, stiff, awkward and clumsy.
She was not a fit for the reality singing contest show and it was obvious, but rather than cut her loose during the season her bosses at FOX opted not to re-up Kardashian.
That's no crime, as Kardashian is still a reality show star and successful businessperson and she'll be just fine.
What one wonders about, however, is why these show producers don't have a better feel for the people they hire for these gigs.
It didn't take long for viewers to see Khloe wasn't a fit with the smoother, if still too giddy and dimpley Lopez.
Why aren't people who are IN the business see these things more quickly and clearly?
