Kimberly Noel "Kim" Kardashian, born on October 21, 1980, is an
entrepreneur, TV personality, model, socialite, and fashion designer who
first became famous for her sex tape with popular R & B signer Ray J
in 2007. Her main success came later in 2007 with E! Network's premiere
of the reality series "Keeping up with the Kardashians" which shows the
array of drama within the Kardashian and Jenner family, including Bruce
Jenner, Kris Jenner, Kourtney Kardashian, Khloe Kardashian Odom, Robert
Kardashian, and younger sisters Kendall and Kylie Jenner.
Weighing 115 lb and standing 5'3 in a pair of size 7 shoes, Kim
Kardashian has become a successful celebrity icon with a net worth of
$38 million. She first showed her desire to succeed when she obtained
her first job at her father's (the late Robert Kardashian) music
marketing firm called Movie Tunes while attending Marymount High School,
an all-girls college preparatory school.
In 2006, collaboration with Khloe and Kourtney, Kim opened the
designer clothing store Dash in Calabasas, California; geared toward
those with fashion sense. In 2012, Kim consecrated the opening of Dash
LA on Melrose Ave. with Kayne West and more than a dash of PDA (public
display of affection). Toward the end of the year, Kim landed her first
acting gig in Beyond the Break and further progressed her career by shooting a nude layout for the December 2007 Playboy issue.
In 2008, Kim starred as Lisa in the spoof film Disaster Movie and appeared in How I Met Your Mother episode "Benefits" as well as Season 3 of the series 90210
(alongside her sisters Khloe and Kourtney). She was a judge during
Cycle 13 of America's Next Top Model and was later partnered with Mark
Ballas in season 7 of "Dancing with the Stars" but was the third
contestant voted off.
In April 2009, Kim initiated her entrepreneur career by releasing a workout DVD series Fit in Your Jeans by Friday
with trainers Patrick Goudeau and Jennifer Galardi and was named
co-founder and chief fashion stylist for ShoeDazzle. She later appeared
in Fall Out Boy's music video "Thnks fr the Mmrs" where she is seen
cuddling with bassist Pete Wentz and made a cameo appearance in the porn
spoof Deep in the Valley. In October of 2009, Cookie Diet
creator, Dr. Sanford Siegal, filed a defamation lawsuit against Kim
after she went on twitter and said Dr. Siegal was falsely promoting that
she was on the cookie diet.
