Kim Kardashian West on Her eBay Obsession, Her First Job, and 'Snapped' | Screen Tests | W Magazine

- In this 2010 Screen Tests interview, reality TV queen Kim Kardashian talks about her childhood dreams of being a gym-going housewife with lots of kids, her strong work ethic, signing contracts with her father Robert Kardashian, falling in love with fashion, playing Donna Karan's assistant with her sister Kourtney Kardashian, crashing her first car, scoring several Manolo Blahnik Timberland boots on eBay, how Real World inspired her to do reality television, how Keeping Up with The Kardashians started, scary movies, skydiving, her obsession with the true-crime TV series, Snapped, and wanting to be a crime scene investigator.
Kardashian is a master of proportion: The tightness of her clothes highlighted and elongated her hourglass body, and her long black hair, which was curled and smoothed and teased into a waist-length fall, set off the smoky Cleopatra makeup on her catlike brown eyes.
As a celebrity, Kardashian gives good value: She is the star of a reality show, Keeping Up With the Kardashians, which means she is famous for being herself. On the show, and in life, she has defined that persona as a glamorous It girl who is close to her family, a wealthy but hardworking beauty who is not skinny, a single woman (almost 30!) looking for her soulmate. Kardashian takes her role seriously. She’s willing to reveal her life in all its simple complications to the millions who watch the show; the millions who follow her on Twitter; and the millions who read her blog on her website, asking questions and seeking advice on how to be all things Kim. Like a classic movie star with a knack for new technology, she meets and greets with poise and perfect hair.
Kardashian was at the mall on a bright Saturday morning in September to promote FusionBeauty cosmetics, a company known for its lip-plumping products; to meet Kardashian a customer/fan would have to be among the first 200 patrons to spend $75. Kardashian checked her phone and typed something in.
This is part of Kardashian’s every-girl approach. She may look like a pinup, but she’s also practical and at least theoretically faces the same challenges as her mostly female fans. She has no particular talents-can’t sing, can’t dance, can’t act-but she has something that appeals: Kardashian represents possibilities, a goal that may be attainable. She’s genuine and colorful, which is why, after five seasons and a spin-off, Keeping Up With the Kardashians shattered records at the E! channel, garnering 4.7 million viewers for the premiere episode this August. That installment, like all episodes, had several storylines; wisely, Kardashian shares the spotlight with her entire family.
Her mother, Kris-who is also known as the “momager,” since she manages the business affairs of every member of the family-is married to Bruce Jenner, the Olympic athlete. With her former husband, Robert Kardashian, who is best known for representing his friend O.J. Simpson at his trial for murder (its own kind of reality show), Kris had four children-Kourtney (31), Kim (29), Khloé (26), and Robert Jr. (23). With Jenner, who had four children from previous marriages, Kris had two more daughters- Kendall (14) and Kylie (13).
Kris took the idea for a reality show about her clan to Ryan Seacrest, who has a production deal at E! He said yes immediately, and within a week every family member had agreed and filming began. From the start, the storylines have combined the glossy and mundane with soap opera-like flourishes: Kim has a fight with her (now ex-) boyfriend, football star Reggie Bush, and a photo shoot in her bikini; although she’s not married, Kourtney becomes pregnant and has the baby; Khloé meets Lamar Odom, the sixth man on the Lakers, and marries him a month later. All of this-the birth, the wedding, the photo shoots, the fights, and, most of all, the invariably happy endings-are filmed for the show.
LipFusion is just one of her many endorsements. She (sometimes with her sisters) promotes a clothing line for QVC, a weight-loss supplement, Armenian-inspired jewelry, an online shoe business, “couture” lollipops, bathing suits, scented candles, and Kim Kardashian perfume. The show has made her a brand: The midpriced, mainstream-with-a-touch-of-sparkle products that she endorses are carefully chosen to reinforce her glam/regular girl image.

Never saw this and she's super pretty here. I feel this is her in her element
She looks so naturally pretty in this!
2010-2011 was her peak she was so beautiful there!
@tyadoOr *2009-12
This is probably the MOST genuine I’ve ever seen Kim be on a screen. I don’t know how Lynn Hirschberg always manages to catch celebrities in their most genuine and real moment.
She seems so nice. And is absolutely adorable.
People can be so envy when they see a rich, pretty, famous person.
Yes. I'm so envy. That's why we dislike some and like others. Envy.
and the hate just makes them more famous!
No. She's just not likeable.
@@cowlark2000 Yeah, because being a reality star is so fleeting.
Her voice is so ASMR
Get her back
Kim: “I’m not freaked out by anything”
A spider: Hold this for me
This just recommended at me 9 years ago?
2019 everyone?
Juliana Peñaranda at least I’m not the only one
2020 here
2023
These Hirschberg interviews are like first dates. One minute into Kim's, its pretty obvious there shouldn't be a second.
i really like her, she seems smart.
I know I'm six years late, but is that a Friends reference
Laasya Ila yep XD
"If i watch too many home alone, i get a little scared sometimes and I lock myself in my room."
"I'm like not freaked out by anything"
When she talked about her little investment with shoes and clothes and ebay...that is really smart thinking. Her dad taught her very well!
i kinda like this screenshot.
not the biggest fan.. but i think its pretty nice to hear how her dad kinda gave her reality checks.
this girl isnt as stupid as we think. + everybody can get a lil freaky with his/hr bf/gf and make a video. whatever
i love kim, idc what others say. i think she's amazing :P
Same
Kylie talks exactly like Kim. Imitation gone wrong. Khloe sounds more relatable.
THE DISLIKES HAVE ME LAUGHING LMFAO
"If I saw a dead body, Id be like, oh my god... A dead body. How did it die?"
good for kim she’s doing big things rn
why is this even here? I dont understand
Because, it is.
her voice is so grating
"Strong work ethic" Hahahahahaha. Nice one, Kim
I know this comment is 3 years old but she does have a very strong work ethic. I think she's proved that.
longest five minutes of my life.
She looks so much like Kourtney here, it's incredible.
She looks so different now. In the thumbnail I thought this was Kourtney for a sec. And you can really see how she tried putting on a higher baby voice like Paris Hilton here. Copying that kind of persona.
I used to see myself getting up early, going to the gym before getting my kids up and driving them to school.... Fast forward to 2020, that is you life @kimkardashian . Your an awesome person Kim
oh god her beginning statement literally makes me want to tear my eyes out with a fork
Kim: I'm not like freaked out by anything. Me: Uhh...what happened to you screeching like a banshee when your step dad chased you with a tiny spider?
Well I guess I cant hate Kim anymore from this interview it is obvious that she works hard for the spot light. She WANTED to be on a reality TV show and be a celeb and she accomplished that for herself. Her mom undoubtably wanted that for her family and she achieved it. Good for the goals they have accomplished. They may have other characteristics that I don't like but they know how to get what they want no matter how it is done.
I would be a Crime Scene Investigator for living. If I saw a dead body I would say: '' Oh my Gosh, let me help..'' HAHAH what an idiot.
I'm sorry but, what does she do for a living?? I mean why is she doing the screen test?? it's an insult to all the other Oscar winning talented stars who have done that screen test !
first 4 seconds pretty much sums it all up...
i can't believe i just gave this video a view.
i never knew she was smart with money ever since!!!!!!!!!!!
Her dream life was having kids, getting up and going to the gym and she thinks thats bizarre. Wtf honestly😂
she's so mellow. if i didnt know her background i wouldn't dislike her based on this video.
"Oh my god, how did they die let me help investigate!"
"Excuse me miss, are you trained to be a crime scene investigator?"
"No, but I'm like not freaked out by anything."
"...Welcome aboard."
Lawyer
All I saw in the screen tests playlists was an abundance of incredible actors and actresses. Then Kim Kardashian..
Why do people hate her so much? Her talent is business, stop calling her talentless. I don't love her nor am I a fan but I find it pointless when people just say 'hate her'.... you don't know her to hate her.
"If I saw a Dead body I'd be like, 'Omg.. How did that happen. Let me help investigate.'" lmao! She's Cute.
oh and you do know? i dont hate kim just what she represents. kids face the problems of adulthood much sooner than should through tv. they arent ready for that psychologically and it harms the childs
I swear whenever I've had a bad day I just come to this video and read the comments.lol
All the people who are trying to ACT like they didn't like or care about this video are trying to hide their deep down obsession with this women. I'm pretty sure no one put a gun to your head and forced you to watch this video, so all the negative comments are really juvenille. ADMIT IT! You watched this video because you WANTED to and you LIKE Kim Kardashian!
this is way too funny.
I stumbled upon these screen tests with the Jennifer Lawrence one, and was pretty intrigued so I did a search for the rest of them and when the list comes up, it's like, there's all these honestly talented and professional actors and actresses who have paid their dues and have honed their craft over many years of hard work and dedication....and then there's kim kardashian.
One of these things is not like the other....
She's super pretty before all the surgeries
Seriously. Stop being so disrespectful. It's not like she wanted that to get out. She got taken advantage of quite frankly and then turned the attention she was getting into a marketing opportunity with a show. Smart woman. I think she has a good head on her shoulders. Stop being ignorant, you have never met this person. How can you be so judgemental.
Im so confused what does work ethic has to do with a car crash.
can somebody count the number of times she said like
Here, heve my like
Im the same way when it comes to those crime shows and watching gruesome things, lool.
''When I was litlle, I always wanted to be a housewive...'' AAAAAAAAAAND, NEXT VIDEO!
What’s wrong with that lol
When did this channel become a reality tv show?
Eh leave her alone. This reality role has earned her more money than you and I combined. Let her do what she likes.
don't know what people's problems are with this video. I think she's quite personable, well spoken and down to earth. Yes, she had money when she was growing up, but so do a lot of people. Hating them for things like that is as bad as hating people for the colour of their skin.
This is probably the most pointless argument I've ever had. You don't understand why I believe people are allowed to dislike somebody but shouldn't act on it by say ridiculous/disturbing things or being insulting? I truly cannot help you, then.
y r ppl hating she is so feminine
she's such a sweet girl! love her! so beautiful
I got to 1 minute before turning it off. *pats self on back*
When I was young I aspired to be a lawyer and try to make a productive difference in the world someday. All she aspired to was be a housewife who went to the gym every morning, she really didn't have any self respect for the start...
i think the screen test is a interesting monologue, i like the black and white style
I tried to watch this video as i didn't know who is she and what made her famous, but honestly apart from the fact i think she's really hot and beautiful with or without make-up, she's shallow, not to mention she sounds very naive. I also watched interwievs with Mila Kunis, Natalie Portman, Mia Wasikowska, Kristen Stewart. They have something to say, something new. U may agree or not with them, but still it's ineteresting.
I never said you didn't have the right to express your opinion, but you don't have to criticize another harshly as you're doing so.
Everytime I hear her speak I can feel my braincells dying.
I stopped when she said "My ebay obsession."
.... like who cares
I've never bothered giving a video a thumbs down until now... Congrats Kim, you earned it......
I overlooked the Justin Timberlake (not a fan). But did Lynn Hirschberg have to put Kim in this series? Terrible!
I was waiting for her to say, "Then at age 16 I made my very first sex tape."
WTF?!! I was hoping she would prove me wrong, but I was wrong. I should have never clicked on this video.
Omg am laughing so hard
haha, holy dis-likes. love it. its cool when you can find a video that will cure insomnia.
Oh, arguing? Those weren't my intentions, just trying to have a mature discussion with you. But, it seems like we're at a crossroad here, and you seem to me like a really nice person and you have perfectly valid points. Let's be friends shall we?
Well, that's not Kim's fault. It's the parents fault. The show is not for kids but for teenagers and young adults. BLAME THE PARENTS..If parents took away the tv, the ipads, the phones and started PARENTING, we wouldn't be having this problem.
Thank god she is in fashion then, because no murders would ever get solved.
she's like the brunette version of blondes.
All these comments are so much hate, i understand she got famous for no reason, so have many other people before. I mean she's a human being, and should be treated as one.
she's so beautiful...well...beauty and money are all she's got so good for her
just watched interviews with Emma, Jen and Kristen, and then played this... Oh God...
I like her. The amount of hate of the pretentious viewers who pretend to extract intelligence from these interviewers is just beyond understanding.
"really strong work ethic" HAHAHA
It's actually a Mean Girls reference, but I suppose that works too.
Is that a trick question? Horses scare me. Especially high ones. They need to lay off the mary jane! Oh god it's late, I'm tired.
Wow, she actually seems like a legit person.
Awww look at all the haters hating!. Oh please you will never be as beautiful, or as rich so just get over it!.
Shes not boring, shes being real. Just because the media tells you shes a horrible person, you believe it. Shes a human. So is Paris Hilton. You guys are just ridiculous.
This whole video I found myself thinking "jesus who the hell cares"
I RARELY comment on youtube videos, but this was begging for it. First off, it almost seems like a really funny SNL sketch with a great look a like....the opening f***king line is, "When I was little I always thought I would be a housewife" really?!?!? Meanwhile , all the other TALENTED artists Hirschberg's interviewed aspired to more than that at younger ages. UGH. VILE. SAD.
Not to be rude or anything, but I just couldn't finish watching this interview.
"I've always had a really strong work ethic"
AHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHHHHH!!!!!!!
"I've always had a very strong work ethic"
Spends the rest of the video giving examples of how she gets her dad to buy her things on the contractual agreement founded on IOUs.
shes the only one whose actually done up all smart the others are more laidback!
I wonder if today she would do a video with a zit on her face.
For you all saying she has no brains, I really think you're missing the story at 1:55. So she grew up in LA, with money, and around famous people. I totally think people judge her too much.
SHE DOESN'T EVEN GO HERE.
For some reason i'm not feeling her personality. she seems very self absorbed.
Her upper lip used to move more in older videos.... watch her any newer interview... you’ll see it
i was thinking the same thing, after watching all the other interviews with A list actors and actresses then Kim K??! really W?
i saw colin firth's screen test before watching this one and fo some reason i just keep saying why over and over to myself...
"Like if I saw a dead body I'd be like "Oh my god, how'd they die let me help investigate', you know?".. I wouldn't let her anywhere near a crime scene with all those 'likes'.
She may have made a xxx video..but she took advantage and made something out of herself..shes a business woman period. She has a reality show that's thanks to you all who choose to watch...bottom line she's hella smart in taking advantage to what has happened to her.
These blank and white interviews are for talented people, Kim.
What 'first job' ? Born into a very wealthy family, fed by a golden spoon & given free entitlement to EVERYTHING. Never worked a day in her life.
her father worked hard as a lawyer & provided for his kids don’t be jealous
