In New York’s Rockefeller Plaza just steps from this year’s freshly adorned Christmas tree, I met up with Kim Kardashian and her younger sister Khloe Kardashian for an interview to discuss what’s new in their lives.
We talked about their relationships, careers, family (sister Kourtney is days away from giving birth!) and their thoughts on some recent headlines in the news.
Both Kim and Khloe were jet lagged having just flown in to New York hours before our meeting, yet while Kim was worn out, Khloe seemed to be running on pure adrenaline.
As Kim and Khloe sat beside one another during our interview I could see that beyond being sisters, they are like little mothers to each other.
They take turns looking after one another, monitor the other’s emotional state, and many times they finish each other’s sentences.
Kim rested her legs on Khloe’s lap and the girls were quick to jump to each other’s defense; Kim about Khloe’s quick marriage to Los Angeles Laker Lamar Odom and Khloe chiming in to defend Kim’s newly slimmed down figure.
Kim Kardashian is quite different in person than some might expect. Petite with delicate features and a quiet demeanor, she is precise in her answers to my questions and conscious of the message she puts out there.
There is not much off the cuff banter with Kim. She’s an observer and an introvert until she warms up to you and drops her guard. Khloe is boisterous, extroverted and opinionated. She loves to tell you what she thinks, no matter how sticky the topic. But as I told Khloe in the past she is much softer and sweeter than she often comes across on Keeping Up With The Kardashians.
Fresh off an appearance on The Today Show Kim Kardashian and Khloe Kardashian lounged in the building’s green room as I questioned them on everything from their love lives and their body issues to political beliefs and all of those pesky rumors that seem to follow them around.
