"James Bond" Actor Calls The Kardashians Idiots

In a recent interview, James Bond actor Daniel Craig, called Kim Kardashian and the rest of her family “F*&k!ng idiots.”

While sitting down with the British GQ magazine, Craig talks with no regard about the Kardashians when asked why he is so private about his marraige to his new wife, actress Rachel Weisz.

“Look at the Kardashians, they’re worth millions. Millions! You see that and you think, ‘What, you mean all I have to do is behave like a (bleeping) idiot on television and then you’ll pay me millions?’ I’m not judging it. Well, I am obviously,” says Craig. “You can’t buy your privacy back. ‘Ooh, I want to be alone.’ F*&k you. We’ve been in your living room. We were at your birth. You filmed it for us and showed us the placenta and now you want some privacy?”

The actor’s wedding to Weisz was very private. Their marriage, which took place in New York City this past June, only had four people attend. Two guest were the couples’ kids from past relationships. The press didn’t know about the nuptials until four days after.

“We got away with it. We did it privately and I’ve got a lot of people to thank for that,” said Craig. “But that was the point, we did it for private reasons. Because we didn’t want it F*&ked up.”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
