Three Vera Wang wedding dresses, $400,000 of Perrier Jouet Champagne, a four-hour TV special on E!, and a star-studded guest list still doesn’t mean till death do us part. After just 72 days of marriage Kim Kardashian is filing for divorce from Kris Humphries.

Reality star Kim Kardashian showed off a new hairstyle this weekend: bright bright red. Okay, the titian tint was temporary—a necessary part of the star’s Poison Ivy Halloween costume. And while the red wig looks about as real as a plotline on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, it got us thinking. Is it time for Kim to grab the dye bottle and change up her look, joining Rihanna and Blake Lively in their newly-redheaded ranks?

Our curiosities were uh, piqued last month when we saw the sneak peek of the Kim Kardashian–inspired wedding gowns Vera Wang designed for budget bridal company David’s Bridal. In a move that brings multi-million dollar bridal fashion to the masses, Wang re-designed the three dresses she made for Kardashian’s wedding in September, and they’ll be sold for a mere fraction of the cost of the originals.

Word: Weddingitis
Meaning: According to the inestimable Urban Dictionary, it’s an “ailment from attending too many weddings or the byproduct of having too many friends become engaged when you are still single. Side effects include outbursts of “AWWWWWW!!” and deep sighs. Lately, this -itis has become a far greater threat: studies show you can catch it even from people you don’t know, and a rash of celebrity weddings, spreading virally, has everyone in danger.

Forget the Vera Wang wedding dress: Kim should’ve been wearing dollar bills down the aisle! While everybody has been ooohing and ahhhing at the images surfacing from the Kardashian wedding on Saturday, it appears that Kim and her basketball star husband, Kris, may have actually been paid to say “I do.” And a hefty $17.9 million at that! How silly we were to think that even a Kardashian wedding was supposed to cost money, not make money….
From back in July, the reality star is said to have been paid $50,000 by Las Vegas nightclub Tao to host his-and-hers bachelor and bachelorette parties. Even her stepdad, Bruce Jenner, was roped in to raise money for the Kardashian clan, by negotiating a $2.5-million deal with People magazine for exclusive rights to her wedding pictures. But the lovebirds’ biggest paycheck will come from turning their special day into a four-hour E! special to air in October, which will earn them a whopping $15 million!
That doesn’t even cover the free stuff they received—from the wedding cake to Kim’s dress—worth an estimated $650,000. Looks like her mom/manager, Kris, has been very busy.

“There’s only room in town for one Kim Kardashian” seems to be the message the socialite wants to send. On Tuesday, the reality television queen filed a lawsuit against Old Navy for using Toronto-born model Melissa Molinaro in a television commercial, dancing around and proclaiming she’s “super C-U-T-E.” Kardashian, who is in no way affiliated with the retailer, feels like the ad infringes on her oh-so-valuable persona.
What makes the whole issue that much more dramatic (and Kim is no stranger to drama) is the fact that Molinaro is currently dating Reggie Bush, one of the reality star’s ex-boyfriends. One can’t help but question the actual motives behind the suit: Is it a legitimate move to protect the star’s brand or is Kardashian feeling a bit jealous of the new sultry (albeit considerably less famous) brunette?
As far as we know, resemblance isn’t patented. Nor is it strong enough ground upon which to build a lawsuit. What we can say is that the scandal is definitely getting people talking and creating a lot of publicity for Old Navy as well as the previously unknown model.

Word: Man-acle
Definition: One who makes slaves of men; serial heart-stealer; divorce queen. Okay, I semi-made it up from the word for handcuffs, manacle. P.S. I definitely do not mean ball and chain; gross.
