Kim Kardashian Placed on "Media Lockdown"

In case you've been wondering why you haven't seen any new photos of Kim Kardashian sticking her butt out on the red carpet, that's cause Kris Jenner ordered her money making daughter to keep away from the public.

Radar Online reports that the K-family was shocked that America didn't fall in love with Kimmy all over again after learning that she dumped her husband via TMZ, only 2 months after her "royal wedding."

“They did not anticipate the extreme backlash and the damage it would cause to the K-brand as a whole. The whole empire has been affected by this dumb marriage and Kris Jenner is all about getting paid.”

Another source explains that "Kris wants to make sure that the ratings are huge for their show" and she thinks that "if Kim stays under the radar until that airs again they’ll get the maximum publicity out of her situation.”

Kim does need to stay out of the spotlight until the backlash cools down, if it ever does, but Kim has been Tweeting, Facebooking, and blogging up a storm, which makes this 'media lockdown' pretty stupid. She filed for divorce weeks ago, yet she can't suppress her attention whore instincts? She still looks like a fraud. No wonder Michael Buble called her a bitch.
