Kimberly Kardashian is a socialite, media personality, actress, and businesswoman. She first gained media attention as a stylist and friend of Paris Hilton but received wider notice after the explicit tape, “Kim Kardashian, Superstar,” which she filmed in 2003 with her then-boyfriend Ray-J, was released in 2007. Later that year, she and her family started appearing on the E! reality TV series “Keeping Up with the Kardashians,” which aired until 2021. Its success led to the formation of three spin-off shows: “Kourtney and Kim Take New York,” “Kourtney and Kim Take Miami,” and Hulu’s “The Kardashians.” Kardashian has developed a major presence online and across numerous social media platforms, including her millions of followers on Instagram and X.
With her sisters, Khloe and Kourtney, she launched the fashion boutique chain Dash, which operated from 2006 to 2018. She also founded KKW Fragrance and KKW Beauty, both of which operated from 2017 to 2022. The former was valued at over $1 billion as of 2021. Kardashian also founded the shaping underwear company Skims in 2019, which was valued at over $4 billion as of 2023. After the closure of her fragrance and cosmetics brands, Kardashian founded her skincare line, Sknn by Kim, in 2022. She’s released various products tied to her name, including the 2014 mobile game “Kim Kardashian: Hollywood” and the 2015 photo book Selfish. Her acting credits include the films “Disaster Movie,” “Temptation: Confessions of a Marriage Counselor,” and a voice role in two “Paw Patrol” films. She also starred in the 12th season of “American Horror Story.”
Time magazine included Kardashian on their list of 2015’s 100 most influential people. Both admirers and critics have described her as exemplifying the notion of being famous for being famous. In 2021, she became a billionaire and is estimated by Forbes to be worth $1.7 billion as of 2024. She’s become more politically active by lobbying for clemency and prison reform and, as of 2019, is under a four-year law apprenticeship by the legal non-profit #cut50. Her relationship with Kanye West has also received significant media attention. The two were married for eight years and share four children.
What religion is Kim Kardashian?
Kim Kardashian identifies as a Christian and has described herself as “really religious.” She was educated in Christian schools of both the Roman Catholic and Presbyterian traditions. In 2019, she was baptized in an Armenian Apostolic ceremony at the baptistery in the Etchmiadzin Cathedral complex and given the Armenian name Heghine. In 2015, Kardashian and West traveled to the Armenian Quarter of the Old City in Jerusalem to have their daughter baptized in the Armenian Apolistic Church, one of the oldest denominations of Oriental Orthodox Christianity. The ceremony took place at the Cathedral of St. James. In 2019, she baptized her three younger children at the same church where she was baptized.
