Now, along with her family, she is starring in an access all areas reality TV show- here she tells Female First all about life in 24 hour spotlight.Keeping Up With The Karadashians follows LA socialite and tabloid princess Kim,26 and her family made up of two fiercely competitive sisters Kourtney (28) and Khloe (23) their younger brother, Robert, and their two highly impressionable coming-of-age half sisters Kendall (11) and Kylie (9), their firecracker mum Kris who doubles as Kim's stressed out and over-the-top manager and the quiet, conservative step father Olympic gold-medalist Bruce Jenner,Kim is the daughter of famed lawyer Robert Kardashian (who represented O.J. Simpson) and grew up as best friends with Paris Hilton so she's been mixing with the rich and famous since the day she was born. With an appearance in December's Playboy, her own clothing line in the pipeline and Keeping Up With The Karadashians debuting on E! in the UK this Sunday it seems Kim is finally getting the chance to shine her own light.
What was it like being filmed 24/7 for Keeping Up With The Kardashians? At first we were a little bit scared about what we were saying because my sisters are kinda crazy and can say some really weird things but after a while we just got so used to it and you have to be normal and not really care if the cameras are there or not. Was there anything you wouldn't let the cameras see? No not really. There were times when there was a lot of trauma going on and I was crying and I's tell the cameras to get out of my face but at the end of the day we get to see all the footage. We're pretty proud of everything that's gone on- it's all real. Have you watched any of the show yourself? I haven't seen everything yet. I've seen up to episode four and then we're going to see episode 5 today. How do you think you came across on the show? You know what- it's me. People are so quick to judge me and make up all these crazy ridiculous things about me so it's good for the world to see who I really am and if they don't like it then they can judge me. I hope it will kinda change people's opinion of me. You are fairly unknown in the UK, are you worried about how you and your family will be perceived over here? I love the UK and I've been there many times so I just hope that people do become aware of us. There's ten kids in my family and we support each other no matter what but we're just like your normal family. We argue all the time and do things that all normal families do so I hope they can relate to us.
Is there anyone you clash with in your family? My mum. I love her death and she's my favourite but then we also fight because she's my manager so it kinda like gets in the way sometimes and we fall out.
Do you ever fall out with your sisters? Yeah we fight about clothes all the time. It's kinda funny because we have a lot of the same clothes so sometimes we'll show up wearing the exact same outfit and it's like so funny because we get irritated with each other for wearing the same thing.
You own a boutique in LA- what's it like?
Yeah it's called Dash. We sell designer stuff and pretty much my whole wardrobe is from there. My life and my world is fashion. My sisters and I are going to start our own fashion label soon and we model and walk in all the runway shows in LA, New York and Miami.
So is the new fashion line definitely going to go ahead then? It's definitely going to happen but we're just meeting with manufacturers at the minute so it's still in the early stages. We want to start with jeans. Like a denim line. And then we want to do some really cute dresses and stuff that we would wear.
You did some modelling at LA Fashion Week too- what was that like? We me and my sisters walked in the Christian Audigier show together. All three of us did it so it was so much fun. Last year was my first show for Christian and I did it by myself. I was so nervous and I thought I was gonna faint when I walked out. My sisters were in the audience then but this time I got to see my sisters so nervous about how they were gonna walk so it was a good expereince.
