WHY DID KIM KARDASHIAN BECOME FAMOUS?
Currently Kim is one of the most famous celebrities in the world, but it was not always like that; it was a scandal that put her in the public eye.
Kim Kardashian is currently one of the most famous celebrities in the world: the details of her marriage to Kanye West are in the public domain, but it was not always that way.
The curvy Kim, daughter of the host Kris Jenner, rose to fame thanks to a pornographic video in which she and her then-boyfriend, rapper Ray J, were the protagonists, which was recorded in 2003 and made public in 2006.

Before that Kim was just the assistant to the socialite Paris Hilton, who then outshined the brunette.
Ray J even commented that it was Kris Jenner herself who convinced Kim to make the XXX video and broadcast it.
It was also said that it was Kris herself who negotiated the agreement with Vivid Entertainment, a well-known porn film firm, for the dissemination of the controversial film, although it was publicly commented that there was a lawsuit from Kim towards the distributor, which left her a deal for 5 million dollars.

Kim's rise to fame also served her family, as a year after the sex video became known, the reality show 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' aired, putting the entire Kardashian dynasty in the spotlight.
Kris Jenner was also involved in the launch of this program, alerting E! about her daughter's coming fame and convinced them to create the hit reality show.
Regardless of the circumstances of the video's broadcast, whether the scandal was premeditated or not, it is a fact that it was the springboard for the success of the family.

In 2011 she again attracted attention due to her controversial wedding with Kris Humphries, a marriage that lasted only 72 days. Both Kim and her mother benefited greatly from this short union, as they obtained earnings of more than 40 million dollars between exclusives for wedding announcements, photos and the transmission of the event.

Already consolidated as a celeb, this woman's relationship with rapper Kanye West, which began in 2014, could not do more than place her and her family on top.
Social networks have been a fundamental factor in Kim's fame: it is not at all rare to see a photo of her in little clothing or displaying her voluptuous body before her thousands of followers.

The birth of the couple's children, North (2013) and Saint (2015) added popularity to the already very famous Kim and Kanye.
Although it is widely commented that the most famous of the Kardashians does not have any talent and does not deserve the success she enjoys, there is one thing that is certain: she has sold herself very well.
