Kim Kardashian: Snapshot

Name: Kim Kardashian
Date of Birth: October 21, 1980
Birth Place: Los Angeles, Calif.

A sex tape (that derriére!) put socialite Kim Kardashian in the spotlight, but it was the self-described princess' savvy that parlayed her stint in pornography into her own E! reality series, Keeping Up with the Kardashians.

The daughter of O.J. Simpson defense attorney, the late Robert Kardashian, L.A.-bred Kardashian first made her mark in Hollywood as stylist to stars like Brandy and Lindsay Lohan and now owns the Calabasas, Calif. boutique, Dash, with her sisters Kourtney and Khloé.

The bodacious babe, who dated New Orleans Saints running back Reggie Bush for years, eventually found love again with NBA player Kris Humphries. Kardashian was the epitome of a princess bride at her fairy tale wedding to Humphries in August 2011 – only to file for divorce 72 days later.

Up Close & Personal
While rumors of a sex tape involving Kardashian and ex-boyfriend Ray J swirl, Kardashian denies any such tape exists. "There is no amount of money that could ever convince me to release any tape, even if I had one," she tells Complex. But the tape eventually surfaces on the Internet, and Kardashian sues Vivid Entertainment to suppress its distribution, saying, "It would humiliate me and ruin my family." By April, Kardashian settles with Vivid to distribute the tape.
The Family Business
Kardashian gets her own E! reality series, Keeping Up with the Kardashians, which documents her career and family life, with sisters Khloé and Kourtney, momager Kris, and stepdad Bruce Jenner. "At the heart of this series – despite the cat fights and endless sarcasm – is a family that truly loves and supports one another," says Ryan Seacrest, executive producer of the series.
