This former back in the day A- list teen actress had someone write down all of the horrors that befell her courtesy of the men her mom forced her to be with to land parts to feed the family. She was talked out of publishing it by a family member who wants the world to think she got all her parts by hard work and not her sister on her back.
Kim Richards
ReplyDeleteAnd Kyle
DeleteSo Kyle is allowed to make money by telling her family story, but Kim can’t??
ReplyDeleteI used to like Kyle... not so much anymore
DeleteI did initially but didn’t know Kim’s backstory and now hate her.
DeleteAlso heard from my friend out there who knows the family a bit from growing up there etc-Kyle is(and was ALWAYS) a climber apparently. Then again she is a total LVP gal lol. But sweats Kyle is phony AF
DeleteKyles show was pathetic and Alicia Silverstone cannot act.
ReplyDeleteEveryone knows Kim is mentally ill and she was a Disney darling..
ReplyDeleteShe was raped and abused.
Definitely Kim Richards with Big Kathy as the mom. That woman was a horrid, vile woman. I feel terrible for Kim and feel the bitch did steal her house. You know she supported the family for years. I do not hate Kyle, I think she learned very young to be a people pleaser on the outside and crafty on the inside.
ReplyDeleteGood point.. that seems like what she -well said.
DeleteI love Silverstone! I think she's one of the nicest people in Hollywood. #kindlife
ReplyDeleteI like her movies, too. I love Clueless, and Blast from the Past, and Beauty Shop.
"Beauty Shop" is free on Amazon Prime and I might watch it again soon. It's a fun movie.
If the blind is about Kim and Kyle...
ReplyDeleteKim was the star, how did Kyle wind up controlling Kim's life?!
Sad, I hope all the best for Kim.
I actually like Kyle too, although I keep hearing bout all these things she supposedly (and, I feel, probably) does. Everyone is abused in an abusive family, like nuclear fallout.
MDAnderson: excellent point.
ReplyDelete@Samantha-she was iconic in Clueless and has acting chops but the role on Kyle's show was not for her. Maybe the acting was shite because the script were but it was embarrassing to watch.
ReplyDeleteI never saw Kyle's show - American Women or something like that?
ReplyDeleteI saw some type of 'making of' clip somewhere, but it didn't spam the network and date enough, so I had no clue where to find it. And I wasn't bothered enough to look. So, I can't critique the show or praise it.
Some directors insist on actors making very bad choices, though, and they're boss.
Wasn't Kyle's show about her family, though? But she killed her sister's book?! I hope Kim blogs about it all and then does the talk show rounds.
it's all in the book the house of hilton
ReplyDeleteSquirrelmistress- i might have to get that book!
ReplyDeleteSamantha- great points about the family dysfunction. Just wish Kim caught some of the breaks in the personal life.
This sucks if true. I loved Kim Richards when I was a kid. Just fuck up all my childhood memories, why don't ya.
ReplyDeleteVita - thank you. I do also.
ReplyDeleteI would like to read the filthy things acts her mother forced her to partake in.
ReplyDeleteEver notice it is never the fathers who force their daughters to prostitute themselves? More proof that no one hates women as much as women hate women.
If this is Kim Richards, I worked on the film 'Tuff Turf' she co-starred in with James Spader and Robert Downey, Jr.
ReplyDeleteI got the feeling she was always put upon because she was a very, very beautiful 20 year old woman.
Since I was just a crew member, I kept my distance and did my job.
You have some awesome anecdotes. Please share some more.
DeleteRobin Lively to be different
ReplyDeleteRead that Kim Richards is being sued by a ghostwriter. Maybe that is why this blind item is coming out now. Kim has the saddest eyes. If this is about her, her eyes say it all.
ReplyDeleteDavidHowes - I remember that movie. I liked the movie.
ReplyDeleteKim was/is very beautiful. Yes it's very sad.
Insightful and true that young, beautiful women don't have an easy time of it. Kind of like wearing a raw steak suit while walking through a jungle.
Though Kylie’s daughters don’t seem to have turned out like many of the other housewife kids do. They seem relatively normal.
ReplyDeleteKyle has always been a famewhore. I feel sorry for Kim.
ReplyDeleteKyle was a child actor too, she had a recurring role on Little House on The Prairie.
ReplyDeleteKim and Kathy. I think Kyle would be supportive
ReplyDeleteKim is not the mentally ill one, Kyle is!
ReplyDeleteKyle would walk over the dead bodies of her sisters for fame and fortune. She's a talentless low-rent parasite.
@ Samantha
ReplyDeleteI love Clueless, Blast from the Past, Beauty Shop

don't forget that baggage movie she did with benicio del toro
Brad Pitt - yeah that movie was not bad either. It seemed more like Benicio's movie though, so I had forgotten about it.
ReplyDeleteKim is a hopeless mess. Her kids had babies to get out of the house. Her dog bit two people to be killed and get out of the house. Id want to be euthanized if i was in her dysfunctional life choices.
ReplyDeleteThis does indeed sound like the Richards sisters. If you're looking for something gossipy to read, I highly recommend "House of Hilton". For such a trashy tome, it's way more entertaining than it should be, and really lays out what a horrible manipulative woman their mother was, and how she raised her daughters to basically do nothing other than snag rich men and have children.
ReplyDeleteIt's pretty sad to see what a hot mess Kim grew up to be, but not surprising given her upbringing. It's also sad to hear both sisters continuing to speak of their mother in such glowing worshipful terms, when she was a user and an abusive lush. They both seem completely delusional in that regard. Their sibling dynamic fascinates me because I remember both from childhood movies and TV in the 70's - Kim from Witch Mountain, and Kyle from Halloween and Little House on the Prairie. Kyle seems to like to present herself as the "together" sister, with the handsome husband, beautiful home and nice family life, who is burdened with the addict sister. Kim is undoubtably beyond hope at this point, but I'd love to know what the real story is.
Doodlegirl - Kim *sounds like* the ongoing victim of narcissists. Narcs are like vampires.
ReplyDeleteHow about Jamie Lynn Spears to be different?
