She said, she is Kim Kardashian, of course, she has her mannequin with her custom measurements in her glam room, referring to her “glam room” and the mannequin that had her exact measurements.
Kim then showed her big TV wall, which broadcasts her beauty campaigns on a loop.
The 43-year-old mother of four also showed off 3D models of her brain and private jet before showcasing her red light treatment and tanning beds. Then she grinned and said, everything in her office is custom Rick Owens.
Kim Kardashian was chastised by netizens in the TikTok comments section for flaunting her luxury amid financial hardship.
Another person said, Yeah, rub it in more while the rest of the world is struggling to live and afford food, adding she’s Kim Kardashian, and she’s so out of touch with the world.
She’s Kim Kardashian, people are starving and freezing to death, but she doesn’t care, a third person said. A fourth person wrote she’s Kim Kardashian, of course, she has plenty of money to waste.
Is Kim Kardashian a Billionaire?
Kim was formally named a billionaire by Forbes in April 2021 as a result of a combination of KKW Beauty, Skims, TV shows, sponsorships, and smaller investments.
Then, in January 2022, the journal said that Skims’ founder’s net worth had increased to an astounding $1.8 billion following a round of fundraising and a revised assessment.
It’s important to remember, though, that Forbes has a history of being often erroneously incorrect about Kardashian wealth. In October 2020, the company even downgraded its estimate of Kim Kardashian’s net worth from $900 million to $780 million, citing a “weakness in cosmetics sales. So take everything with a pinch of salt.
More money from the family show
From 2007 to 2021, “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” aired for 20 seasons. According to unnamed industry insiders quoted by The Hollywood Reporter in 2017, Jenner and her daughters earned $4.3 million a year from the show, with Jenner receiving a portion of her kids’ profits as their “momager.”
The family extended its contract with E! For the series through 2020 in that year; at the time, an unnamed insider told Variety that the agreement was below $100 million.
In the end, the family moved its reality TV business to Hulu, where “The Kardashians” debuted in March 2022. Variety was informed by Khloe Kardashian that the Kardashian family will all receive the same pay for the series, referring to them as all equal.
According to Variety, which quoted unnamed insiders, the family’s Hulu agreement was valued in the nine figures.
Kris Jenner tried to argue that everyone gets paid pretty much equally, but according to TMZ, Kim gave Khloe and Kourtney between 50 and 60 percent of the family’s contract, with the remainder going to the other members of the family. If this is accurate, Kim received $20 million, or 20 percent of the approximately $100 million, for Keeping Up With the Kardashians.
Money from Real Estate
Even though flipping houses wasn’t their day job, Kim and Kanye West made a tonne of money doing it. The couple made $17.8 million when they sold their $9 million Bel-Air residence in 2017, taking home $8.8 million in profit.
The deal is the most costly sale in the exclusive Bel-Air Crest community, according to TMZ.
A source informed Page Six that Kim and Kanye’s alleged $40 million purchase price and $20 million renovation expenditure for their present residence posed a problem during their divorce settlement negotiations.
