Kim Kardashian has used her reality TV stardom as a launching pad to become one of the most successful female entrepreneurs on the planet.
Conversely, Jenelle Evans also rose to fame through reality TV, but her life trajectory went in the opposite direction.
Jenelle experienced a rare W last month when she regained custody of her son Jace, but other than that, she has encountered one setback after another in recent years.
We’re somewhat sympathetic, but to be fair, most of the obstacles Evans has encountered in his life are entirely of his own making.
Currently, Jenelle lives with her perpetually angry and chronically unemployed husband, David Eason, in a dilapidated house that seems to sink into the marshy ground on which it sits.
So you’d think Jenelle would only look at Kim’s life with respect and admiration.
Instead, she publicly trashes the wildly successful A-lister.
As we reported earlier this week, Kim has announced that she may be quitting reality TV soon in order to start practicing law.
It’s a path she’s been pursuing for several years, and her reasons for doing so couldn’t be more admirable.
Kim has previously helped obtain pardons for several non-violent drug offenders who were serving life sentences, and she says she hopes to continue that work once she becomes a lawyer.
As a former heroin addict who’s had several run-ins with the law, you’d think Jenelle could support this kind of effort.
Instead, she took to Facebook to criticize Kim’s crusade.
“I would love to see her try out because I’ve been in court enough to know how badly two lawyers can argue,” Jenelle wrote.
“I went through criminal, CPS, civilian at this point.”
It was a bizarre decision for many reasons — though we applaud Jenelle’s decision to link up with the most touted and venerable of all celebrity outlets, The Hollywood Gossip.
On the one hand, going to court often does not make someone an expert in the law.
On top of that Jenelle wrote ‘statues’ when she meant ‘statuses’ which would have been great if she satirized the kind of bullshit incorrect people confidently post on social media – but we don’t don’t think that’s what’s happening to her.
In other Jenelle news, Evans recently bought a huge boat, and naturally, she couldn’t resist showing off her new toy on Instagram.
When fans noted that it probably wasn’t the smartest expense for an unemployed worker struggling with health issues and living in a house in need of major repairs, Jenelle explained that the boat could serve as a second home.
Perhaps she forgot that she is responsible for the care of four children?
Either way, something tells us that Kim Kardashian isn’t worried about having to move her family on a boat, so maybe Jenelle should just relax with the criticism.
