The reason Kim Kardashian became famous a decade ago
The ‘celebrity’, one of the most followed on the social network, was already famous before ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’
Paris Hilton starred in the celebrity universe during the 2000s with the nights out of her and her controversial friends among which were Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan and a star yet to be discovered whom Paris used as an assistant and friend, Kim Kardashian. . The famous businesswoman has become a multimillionaire thanks to exploiting her own image, something that the hotel heiress taught her well.
Paris passed the baton on to Kim more than a decade ago, but the Kardashian fever has been so bizarre that while the new queen accumulates 114 million followers on Instagram, Paris Hilton has to settle for just nine million.
The reality show starring Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie, another of Paris's very close friends, called The Simple Life revolutionized American television with audience records. This aired for the last time in August 2007, and in October of the same year the reality starring the Kardashian sisters, Keeping Up With the Kardashians, was released. The one with the sisters has been on the air for fourteen seasons, the one in Paris only had five.

Kim Kardashian's secret is to have completely disassociated herself from Paris Hilton and to have created a strong individual image. Her explosive features and figure, accentuated with the passage of time when undergoing surgery, has helped her to be considered a benchmark of beauty. Her cosmetics brand KKW hers is one of the businesses that contributes the most to Kim, among other representations.

While her proximity to Paris Hilton made Kim Kardashian known to the entertainment press, her last name made headlines in the 1970s from her father, Rob Kardashian. After retiring from the law, Rob revalidated his license to defend O. J. Simpson after his former wife and the man she was with at the time, Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman, were found dead. The O. J Simpson case was called by the press the "trial of the century."
The Porn Video Affair
In 2007, the same year that Kim premiered her reality show, a video of her and her boyfriend at the time, actor Ray J, was filtered and went viral on the network. The material was a video diary of the couple in which you could see various scenes from her life, among them a sexual encounter in a hotel room. For many, that was what led Ryan Seacrest to offer reality to the Kardashians.
Paris dressed up as Kardashian
Five months ago, Paris Hilton dressed up as Kim Kardashian to promote YEEZY, the fashion label of Kanye West, Kim's husband.

This year Paris revealed that Kim would be among the guests of her increasingly close wedding.
