But back in the day, Kim Kardashian piggy backed off her Hollywood friends’ fame, in a desperate bid to get noticed.
Reality stars Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt have revealed Kim used to come round to organise her pal’s closet, in the hope that the scenes would be screened on The Hills.
‘Kim was edited out of The Hills episodes organising Heidi’s closet’ Spencer explains to Complex magazine.
‘Now it’s like, “Kim Kardashian breaks the internet with her booty.” Like, what the f***?’
Spencer and Heidi - or Speidi, as their fans may know them as - hooked up on LA based reality show The Hills.
Paving the way for the many shows that would follow, the series detailed the lives of the young, rich and beautiful trying to make a name for themselves in the Californian city.
And Pratt, whose sister Stephanie stars on MIC, even revealed that Kris Jenner once asked him to manage the star (something the Kardashian camp denies).
Kim got a small part in Paris Hilton’s reality show The Simple Life - where she is seen being told to clean out the heiress’s closet.
But it was only until 2003, when a sex tape was leaked of Kim fornicating with Ray J, that she really made headlines - being signed up to her own reality show following this.
