    Kim Kardashian Keeps 90% of Charity Auction Proceeds

    Kim Kardashian's charity auctions benefit her bank account more than the cause. Kim Kardashian's charity auctions benefit her bank account more than the cause. Celebrities know their used personal items can raise a lot of money, so they often auction their clothing and accessories for charity. But some sneaky stars like Kim Kardashian only enjoy doing a good deed if they can fatten up their wallets. Kim has an estimated net worth of $35 million, but if she'll find a way to gain money from her wedding and her divorce, we know profiting off charity isn't beneath her.

    According to Fox News, the reality star auctioned off around $1,700 worth of items last week through eBay Giving Works. She sold a $960 Herve Leger dress, her "Dancing with the Stars" robe for $120, Christian Louboutin pumps for over $500, Balenciaga heels, and a faux fur vest. But while her listings are tagged as a "Charity Auction Supporting the Dream Foundation," she only gives 10% to the charity, the absolute minimum requirement eBay permits. She pocketed the other 90%, which was over $1,500.

    Fans who noticed the small percentage donated have lashed out on Kardashian's blog. "Very nice love the shoes you should give 100% to the charity. I do ALL THE TIME it makes me feel so good," one reader said. Other comments were not as nice. "i saw 10% and i was like are you kidding me?!? it's a joke. i sell MY stuff on ebay and give 100% to charity and i'm a struggling college student, not a millionaire. come on kim."

    Donating $200 to charity is nicer than not donating at all, and we wouldn't take that away from Kim Kardashian. But when other stars like Miley Cyrus, Steven Tyler, Barbara Streisand, Sienna Miller, Nick Cannon, and even Charlie Sheen are donating 100% of their wares in recent charity auctions, you'd think a mega millionaire like Kardashian would be a little more generous.

    Kim, we're on to your money-hungry ways. Nearly 600,000 people have signed an online petition to boycott you and everything you're a part of, so perhaps it's time contribute to society in a way that doesn't increase your bank account.

      SMH! Not surprised at all. Kim and her entire family are money hungry, a gene they got from their momager Kris! As much money as they have gotten for doing absolutely NOTHING substantial or important, you would think she would not only donate 100% of the proceeds to charity, but would also match what was raised! Not Kim...she is too busy trying to get blood from a turnip to really cultivate a charitable spirit! Shame on her!

      What do you expect from the Kar-trashians? With that stupid Cu $* of a mother, how can they NOT be bunch of hos (media and otherwise) I feel sorry for Bruce's daughters because they are getting sucked into the "Kartrashian vortex" just by having this outstanding citizen as a mother! Kim is continuing to show her true, trashy colors and I think that the best thing we can do is go on-line and singn the petition to get them off of the air once and for all!

      We are tired of the Kardashians, all they think about is themselves and how they can become richer; we all should stop watching their reality shows; and maybe the E channel will get the hint and replace them with a show that has alot more class. Is this what life is all about nowadays; very sad; why not help save the planet and the economy instead. Do something that helps mankind.

      When can we all get a rest from this family? This woman is horrible. Next up, a Kardashian Barbie doll? Give me a break. I wouldn't buy that for my daughters! Why doesn't Kim get a real job? Hey, she could try working 9-5 and earning a living like everyone else. Maybe then she would have a sense of reality. Maybe then she would be able to see what charity is all about. This family sickens me. It's even worse that companies want to use these people to sell merchandise for them. I won't buy anything the Kardashians endorse. I don't know anyone who would! Sears, Macy's, find someone else!

      Okay, these people are not in the least bit attractive. Look at her face!!!! Her face looks weird. She has strange lines under her cheeks that makes her face look cartoonish. Did she have plastic surgery to look like that??? And she just looks plain fat to me. Seriously, who thinks that this picture up there represents a fit, attractive woman. I just don't get it!!!! I feel like I am in the Twilight Zone every time I see these people. Its like that movie "They Live". Put your decode glasses on People!!!!! When your not drinking the Kardashian Kool-Aid, these broads are so nasty looking!!!!!!

      Is this just my imagination?????
