Posted 50 minutes ago by Jocelyn Vena in Television Sure, Kim Kardashian has her celebrity supporters ( we're looking you Trina and Lala ), but there also seems to be a growing number of celebrity folk who are a bit tired of all the hoopla around Kim and her split from short-lived hubby Kris Humphries. Talk show hosts Chelsea Handler and Wendy Williams seem to either want to distance themselves from Kim or don't get why Kim ran away from addressing the split head on in the first place. In the case of Mariah Carey, she mistakenly took a jab at Kim when she commented on how short some Hollywood marriages last.

CAREY ON: With the help of an artist who was less than a year old when the song was originally released, Mariah Carey returns to the Billboard Hot 100 with an update of "All I Want for Christmas Is You." Justin Bieber (born March 1, 1994) and Carey's duet of the song, parenthetically titled the "Superfestive!" version, arrives at No. 86 on the chart, as Bieber's seasonal set "Under the Mistletoe" becomes the first album by a male artist to launch at No. 1 on the Billboard 200. The original "Christmas" reached No. 12 on Radio Songs and No. 6 on Adult Contemporary in the 1994 holiday season.
