i'd rather people get inquisitive about the culture and see she's not a great example than to watch your culture potentially die an unnoticed death.

Originally posted by Mos View PostIt's better we have no spokesperson, than have a prositute, wh*re, who is not one shred armenian, as our spokesperson. Yes she should gtfo and stop exploiting the 'armenian' name - she should just continue being an american wh*re, she's good at that.

Originally posted by ara87 View PostKan I know she's not the best spokesperson, there are so many other people I'd rather have, there's a nice looking, proper, Armenian American girl i posted about on here who's signed with interscope records, but for whatever reason, she's just not marketable to the masses like Kim is. Beggars can't be choosers, we're in no place to tell Kim and her clan to gtfo when we don't even have anyone to replace her with

Originally posted by KanadaHye View PostOut of the 3, probably only Aznavour was marginally Armenian. Why is it that we don't give notice to true Armenian celebrities like Isabel Byrakdarian? The problem is with the Armenian community, we don't support our artists and help them achieve world recognition. That and intelligence doesn't achieve fame on a world stage that's run by Hollywood executives and agents.
Kardashian or Kardb0zian is 1)not armenian 2) not an artist 3) a wh*re 4) and thus an embarassment - she's is just one of those american wh*re stars that thinks saying that she's armenian will make her standout. She basically exploits our name for her prositute intentions. She deserves nothing, a spit in the face at best.

I forgot to mention that there are still Armenians to this day that try to say Gwen Stefani is Armenian, that they know she is b/c she has "Armenian eyes" even though she isn't Armenian at all. And she doesn't do anything for Armenia or have an "Armenian Mindset" yet people still try to claim her.
I also forgot to mention that Aznavour is also 25% Georgian from his father's side, that's an interesting fact most people don't know anyhow
@ Kanada
As far as supporting our own Armenian celebrities to non Armenians, it's much harder than it sounds. To be marketed globally you have to have a immense fan base, but seeing as not one Armenian celebrity can get all the Armenians in the world to be their fan, chances are it's never going to happen. Especially since as far as music goes, Armenian music is not the kind you can market internationally even if it is in English, and as far as acting goes, it's not like Armenia has a top notch Film and Television industry yet to produce internationally renowned actors.
Even other celebrities from other countries have a hard time making it internationally. For instance Haifa Whebe of Lebanon tried making it, she had concerts with American entertainers like 50 cent, and even was listed in People's Magazine's "Most Beautiful People" list a few years back but she's still not really known outside the Middle East.
Countless other celebrities from various countries have tried to make it internationally and failed even with the support of their people, b/c what they don't realize is being a superstar in one country doesn't really make you a superstar. If your Portugal's biggest Celebrity for instance, that means a wannabe international sensation in the USA that's well known in their home state (e.g. California, Texas, Florida, New York) will have more fans, even if they're not nationally known, and half of those people never even get to national fame in the USA.
Celebrity status counts more in the USA than elsewhere, partly b/c were America, and partly b/c we have a lot of people. What good is it if 5% of the UK buys your CD, when that only equals 3 million cd's sold, as opposed to the USA where the same percentage of the population means about 15 million records sold.
There's a reason why the rest of world imports Music and Films from the USA and not the other way around (well maybe except for music from the UK to America), and don't give me this "it's b/c american's aren't cultured" crap. there have been foreign movies here that were well received even though they were only shown wit subtitles
