She may have never touched or kicked a ball again after this photograph (above) but her name alone triggers attention, moves social network ratings higher and fashion designers all over the world dream of getting their works on her now very curvy body.
Kim Kardashian has managed to stay on top despite coming out from underneath Ray J and their infamous sex tape. She's currently about to make her biggest earnings from a new video game expected to make close to 200 million US dollars by the end of 2014.
Kim K is a reality TV superstar thanks to the success of her family TV series, Keeping Up With The Kardashians where her life is been put under public scrutiny along side her other famous sisters, Kourtney, Khloe, Kendall and Kylie, and then brother, Rob Kardashian and mother Kris Jenner and ex-hubby Bruce Jenner.
Kim reportedly hasn't had the easiest way to the top, almost had to fight scandals,intense paparazzi and family feud all her life. But besides all that, she fell in love and married the love of her life, rapper Kanye West last May, with whom she shares a daughter North West.
Kim is a fashion goddess and has been able to inspire many young girls with her style as well as got her two sisters to help women globally with their highly popular brand The Kardashians fashion and beauty line with DASH, shoes, clothes, perfumes and a complete make-up goodie bag!
Her entire life has been in the public eye for way too long that many fans wonder if they will ever get tired of it. But after her having a baby and a third marriage, the reality TV star has gradually began living a more private lifestyle which as she says, "its best for my daughter and my family."
Well, we don't blame her at all. But if rumours about her leaving the reality show which got her to where she is today is true, then Kim will leave most of her fans devastated, confused and sad.
We love Kim and love her even more now as a mother and a wife. She keeps feeding us with style, personality therapy, love and family values and we would always cherish her. But given this childhood photo of hers, would you have loved Kim Kardashian more as a female footballer?
