Reality TV diva Kim Kardashian is firing back at "Mad Men" star Jon Hamm after he name-checked her as being among those who are celebrated for being stupid.

"We're at a place now where being 'elite' is somehow considered negative," Hamm, 41, said in the April issue of Elle UK.

"Whether it’s Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian or whoever, stupidity is certainly celebrated. Being a f*****g idiot is a valuable commodity in this culture because you’re rewarded significantly. It’s celebrated. It doesn’t make sense to me.”

Kardashian - who, with the help of her family, has earned a lucrative living through television show deals, endorsements, high-end clothing stores and a fashion line - took the high road in her response but made it clear that she’s no fool.

“I respect Jon and I am a firm believer that everyone is entitled to their own opinion and that not everyone takes the same path in life,” she tweeted.

“We’re all working hard and we all have to respect one another,” the 31-year-old continued. “Calling someone who runs their own businesses, is a part of a successful TV show, produces, writes, designs, and creates, ‘stupid,’ is in my opinion careless.”
