Kim Kardashian’s former publicist says her marriage was staged, said the New York Daily News. Jonathan Jaxson, who worked for Kardashian from 2007 to 2009, gave a flurry of interviews last week alleging that the reality star’s $10 million wedding and marriage to New Jersey Nets forward Kris Humphries was concocted to boost ratings for her cable show. “There were contracts already in place for E! to film it,” said Jaxson. “The whole show itself was staged. She knew weeks before getting married she didn’t want to do it.” Kardashian sued Jaxson this week for defamation.
