Kim Kardashian-West is an open book with disarming and caring David Letterman on the latest My Next Guest Needs No Introduction. The 39-year-old opened up about how severely the end of Keeping Up With The Kardashians will affect the reality star and details her harrowing experience being robbed in Paris.
Kim Kardashian and David Letterman
On Netflix's My Next Guest Needs No Introduction With David Letterman, Kim Kardashian-West got real. When asked about her long-running series Keeping Up With The Kardashians, Kim told David, "We would not be who we are today without Keeping Up With The Kardashians and that's why we continue to share our lives. Even if, realistically, we can post something on social media and make more than we do a whole season."
Kim was not specific with how much she earns from social media but Us Weekly reported that she earns anywhere from a whopping "$300,000 to $500,000 and sometimes upwards of $1 million."
Cheeky David straight up asked Kim who earns more between her and award-winning rapper Kanye West to which she replied, "Him, probably. We're exactly even [in earnings]. We both are really blessed and do extremely well, and I'm really grateful."
Kim Kardashian on Paris Robbery
The KKW Beauty founder was also very candid about her terrifying robbery in Paris during her fashion week stay. Apparently, she and her friends were talking about what they would do if they were robbed earlier in the day, "Why we had this conversation, it was so wild. I said, 'I would say take everything, just take everything, nothing is important." That same day after her husband Kanye left to continue his tour, Kim's sister Kourtney went to a club and Kim sent her security guard to accompany Kourtney since she would simply be in their hotel room.
Then at 3 in the morning, she heard "stomping up the stairs" and quickly realized it was not her sister returning and went into "immediate panic." She said, "I knew someone was there like someone was there to get me. You feel it." She tried calling for help before the robbers wearing police uniforms and masks took her phone away, demanded her ring, and grabbed her. She explained to David that she was not wearing anything under her robe and began to cry when she explained she believed she was about to be sexually assaulted.
"I was like, 'OK, this is the time I'm gonna get raped. Like deal, this is gonna happen, just prepare yourself.' So, I did and then - I don't know why I'm crying, I've talked about this before - and then he tied me up with handcuffs and zip-ties and then duct tape and duct-taped my mouth and my eyes." Even through this horrible ordeal, Kim was only concerned about her sister, "I kept on thinking about Kourtney, I kept on thinking, like, she's gonna come home and I'm gonna be dead in the room and she's gonna be traumatized for the rest of her life."
Brave Kim told worried David, "Besides that little cry session, I'm totally fine." David spoke about how he was thoroughly impressed with Kim and continued to be enthralled with her strength.
