KIM KARDASHIAN: Pop Culture Icon and Beauty MogulShe is the person who, on multiple occasions, broke the internet. The one and only Kim Kardashian has shot to prominence on a global scale, becoming as one of the most recognizable figures on the planet.

However, beneath the glamor, flash, and tabloid headlines is the tale of an aspirational businesswoman who built a global empire in the beauty industry and deftly used her fame to influence contemporary pop culture. This biography follows Kim's tortuous path to becoming a household name.

We look at her great ambition, which was often disregarded because of her sex video and reality TV background, from her early years growing up in luxury as the daughter of power attorney Robert Kardashian, to her friendship with Paris Hilton that opened the doors to stardom. Instead of letting her 72-days marriage to NBA player Kris Humphries and subsequent divorce spell her doom, Kim changed the course of events and forged her own path as a mother and businesswoman.

Through deft use of social media and emerging technology, Kim established a global brand that includes mobile apps, shape wear, cosmetics, fragrances, and more. She's not simply another fleeting celebrity; at a time when stars come and go, she's consistently taken risky actions to keep control over her own image and preserve dominance.

Her most valuable commodity, herself, was the subject of a well-planned behind-the-scenes campaign to capitalize on, behind all those jaw-dropping selfies and scandalous headlines. Whether you like her or not, Kim Kardashian has had a lasting impact on societal norms and discourse for more than 20 years in the unstable world of celebrity.

This is the raw, unexpected, and unvarnished tale of the woman who rose to fame by living up to her own unwavering standards. .
