Back in the day, the term socialite was used to refer to women who dint necessarily work but managed to attend top-notch parties and exclusive events thanks to her cushy background and daddy moneybags.
Most of these women attended the best schools, wore the priciest jewelry and generally enjoyed a desirable lifestyle.
But the onset of Kim Kardashian brought in another breed of socialites. Socialites who did not necessarily come from a well-off and influential family. This new breed involved rummaging around for fame and influence through being at the heart of the social scene, partying and rummaging for media attention.
In Kenya, any girl who wants fast fame is able to gain it in the name of being a socialite. These socialites who mostly compose of desirable women with equally desirable derrieres, often post nude photos of themselves and engage in controversial acts in a bid to make it up the popularity scale. And hopefully make some coins in the process. Their money-making ways have raised eyebrows with many assuming that they engage in the world’s oldest business, the trade of the flesh.
Maybe that’s why Kamene Goro went in on someone when they referred to her as a socialite.
She says that she has a big problem with being referred to as a socialite because the definition of a socialite in Kenya is deplorable. “Their behavior, what they are associated with, I would hate to be associated with that.”
