‘Teen Mom’ Stars Fire Back At Kim Kardashian

‘Teen Mom’ Stars Fire Back At Kim Kardashian


Yesterday I told you about how Kim Kardashian blogged about her concerns about teenage pregnancy and how reality TV shows like ‘Teen Mom’ seemed to be encouraging teenagers to have kids. Well, two of the teenagers on the MTV show ‘Teen Mom’ fired back (of course ;) ).
Here’s what Amber Portwood of ‘Teen Mom’ told E! News:
“There’s actually a study that shows since the original 16 and Pregnant aired, the number of teen pregnancies have gone down,” Portwood exclusively tells E! News.
“Last time I checked, Kim Kardashian had a sex tape floating around on the internet and I’m pretty sure she made a lot of money off of it. She made a sex tape when she was younger and she wants to bash the girls on Teen Mom?
“If you read the articles about the show, they do nothing but talk about how the show reveals how hard it is for all of us. It doesn’t glamorize anything! It shows the heartache we’ve all gone through.
“We may be ‘celebrities’ because our face is out there, but it’s only because we’ve done some bad things. That’s not glamorous.”
Jenelle Evans of ‘Teen Mom 2′ was a little more blunt:
“I want to say, s–t happens,” Jenelle says.
What do you think about Amber and Jenelle’s responses? I haven’t seen either of the ‘Teen Mom’ shows, so I don’t know how teenage motherhood is portrayed.

FYI: the pictures below, in addition to Kim, are of Amber filming ‘Teen Mom’ with Leah.
