The Kim Kardashian Sketchers Commercial Will Make You Sweat

— February 7, 2011 — Fashion
Aired for the first time at the 2011 Superbowl, this seductive Kim Kardashian Sketchers commercial will convert you to the shoe. With the tag line of "Kim's Break-Up to Shape Up," this athletic TV advertisement shows the bombshell ditching her personal trainer for a pair of kicks that apparently improve her gym workout.

The celebrity ends what looks like a secret affair with her trainer in the commercial, ditching him for a pair of Shape-ups. The implied scandal makes the message behind the Kim Kardashian Sketchers commercial all the more powerful.
