Kim Kardashian Shares the One Thing She’ll Never Do for a Role
As fans of Kim Kardashian know all too well, the reality star isn’t afraid of a challenge, let alone a career change. After all, she’s gone from being Paris Hilton’s assistant to a reality superstar to a billionaire business mogul. And, most recently, she’s shifted her focus yet again to become one of Hollywood’s next big actresses.
Opening up about the career change on a recent episode of The Kardashians, however, the mom of four admitted to a few conditions she has as she looks for new roles after her acting debut in American Horror Story.
According to Kardashian, while she’s invested in acting now, she can’t see herself acting for too long. “I can do a movie a year, I’ve got about 10 years where I still look good, so that’s all I’ve got in me and then I’ll take some time off,” she said, per People. “That’s my 10-year plan.”
“I feel like you need less Botox for more emotion and I don’t have it,” the SKIMS founder then joked to her friends, adding “I’m not gonna be gaining 500 lbs. for a role… that’s not where I need to be.”
Conditions aside, it seems Kardashian, who’s in talks to star and produce a comedy movie titled The Fifth Wheel, is still hesitant about herself as an actress. “How am I gonna cry?” she asked. “How am I gonna be scared out of my mind?”
“I wasn’t planning on this career and was like, I’m not gonna get ahead of myself here,” she explained in a confessional. “I’m really nervous about it ’cause I have to f— deliver. It’s such a challenge for me and I want to welcome a challenge, and I’m like, every year I want to do something that makes me so uncomfortable that I really have to challenge myself.”
Kardashian then explained that this specific career change was because of her agent, Brad Slater. “I was not expecting this career turn, it really did take me by surprise, and I think we all have Brad Slater to thank for this,” she said. “You want a Brad Slater in your corner, he thinks the world of me.”
In the episode, Kardashian also opened up about producing The Fifth Wheel and pitching the movie to different studios. “If it happens and it works out, I will feel really accomplished and feel really fulfilled, but who knows?” she said of the film. “This is just new to me, I’m a little bit green to this.”
Props to her for keeping herself grounded, and always being up for a challenge!
