We did say we were likely to be visiting the Kardashians again, so don't say we didn't warn you. Kim is the highest profile of the whole family; the first to make it into the media's glare, and seemingly the most adept at staying there. She's the poster-girl for reality television and product endorsement, with millions of followers on her social media accounts. Part of the reason that the public doesn't like her is because she's 'famous for being famous,' but her marriage to the equally-unpopular Kanye West hasn't helped with her image either.
Even taking all of the above into account, Kardashian doesn't appear to have done anything wrong. On top of that, she does a lot right. Like her sister Khloe, she's campaigned tirelessly for recognition of the Armenian Genocide. Her interest in the law and prison reform saw prisoner Alice Marie Johnson released in 2018, after serving 21 years for a first-time drugs offense. She's even studying to become a lawyer herself!

Sigourney Weaver graduated from Stanford University in 1971 with a bachelor’s in Literature. It was while studying at Stanford that Sigourney realized her true passion in life was to become an actress. Shortly after graduation, she attended Yale for their well-known drama program. She would go on to receive a master’s in Acting from Yale University and become friends with fellow famous actress Meryl Streep.
Meryl Streep is considered one of the most successful actresses of all time. She is also one of the most highly educated. Before collecting an array of Oscars, Meryl collected diplomas. She graduated from Vassar College with a B.A. in 1971. Meryl has a habit of being unsatisfied with impressive accomplishments as her acting career has shown, so she attended Yale University and earned a master’s degree in Acting.
