Today is Kimberly Noel Kardashian’s birthday- better known to us as Kim K. She was born October 21,1980 to parents Kris and Robert Kardashian who was the lawyer to OJ Simpson, her Godfather.
She bounced into the spotlight 2007 when a old sex tape from 2003 featuring boyfriend at the time Ray J was leaked that pushed the family who where already popular into the limelight.
Keeping Up With The Kardashians
The entire family where commissioned to star in a reality show called Keeping Up With The Kardashians by E! which included her mother Kris and stepfather Bruce along with her sisters and brother Kourtney and Khloe and Rob as well as her step siblings Kendell and Kyle. when the show came out it hit new heights and became one of the most popular shows on E!. The show allowed every girl who lives a normal life see what the glamour of Kim Kardashian and her family is.
As a socialite goes she is a very good businesswomen. She has one business with her mother and some with her sisters which I think is very good as in everything she does she goes out of her way to include her family in it. She seems to be very family orientated.She has tried her hand in acting in Disaster Movie that came out 2008. That year she also joined Dancing With the Stars, although she didn’t get far in the competition and was the third person to be eliminated.Her business ventures tuned her into one wealthy businesswoman. She secured deal after deal and this woman seemed to be on a mission to become one of reality TV’s biggest stars.
She and her sisters became even more popular by getting a part in 90210 that is a pretty big deal, by introducing her and her sisters into the teenage demographic. By this time she had joined The Apprentice, showing off her business sense to the world in the notoriously harsh Donald Trump’s show.
A Dream come True !
In 2011 she then married Kris Humphries, for a mere 72 days – not a successful marriage at all. Whilst still being married, she started dating Kanye West. Her and Kayne seemed to click immediately, and to the delight of their fans the couple were soon married after her separation from Kris. We could honestly see that they are meant for each other. Especially with little North completing their family, Kim seems to have finally found the perfect man.
How this woman came from being just a simple socialite to queen of TV is something that is amazing and today we celebrate her birthday and her rise to the top. its quite empowering to see how she used the leaked tape situation to carve out a new life for herself and make it wonderful. It is now estimated that she is worth $45 million that is incredible. So Happy Birthday Kim!
