With the second season of Hulu’s ‘The Kardashians’ coming to a close, and amid the scandals surrounding Kim Kardashian currently (Kanye West, the Balenciaga photo scandal, etc.), are the Kardashians as a brand still culturally relevant? When ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ premiered on E! in 2007, the family became a pop culture sensation. Over the years we’ve seen everything (literally), their lives have been lived in front of a camera, both the ones they invite in and the intrusive lens of the paparazzi. But considering the reviews for their new Hulu series aren’t great and as they become increasingly out of touch, one must wonder how long they’ll last. Newsweek’s H. Alan Scott invited Naomi Smalls from ‘RuPaul’s Drag Race’ to talk all things Kardashian. Smalls herself knows a thing or two about living life in the spotlight, so she’s a fitting guest (not to mention she’s been watching the Kardashians from the beginning). The two chat about the family’s impact on culture, social media, and how they’ve come to define an entire generation. Visit Newsweek.com to learn more about the podcasts we offer and to catch up on the latest news.
