Here are some photos of Kim Kardashian out and about in NYC on Tuesday. Her ensemble is a welcome relief from the previous day’s stupid crop top and camo pants. Kim ID’d this look: she’s wearing a Lanvin coat and dress and Louboutin heels. I wonder who made the choker. Always trust Kim to kill what could have been a decent look by accessorizing it in some terrible way. I guess we should stop yelling at her about it though – she’s obviously not going to change. She’s hellbent on making herself look stumpy and dumpy. With one choker, she manages to make herself look like a neckless ‘roid monster.

Anyway, Kim’s Love Magazine interview is the gift that keeps on giving. We discussed some of the best/most controversial quotes yesterday, including Kim’s response to the question “What do you do again?” Kim’s reply? “Ask my f—king bank account what I do.” Well, we have more quotes. Here you go:

Kim insists she didn’t launch her career with a sex tape: “Maybe that’s how some people heard about me but I didn’t launch my career off of that. That was 12 years ago, no 13 years ago now, so I just try to move on and put it in the past because I think that everyone in life does things they’re not proud of but you can’t sit and dwell on them forever.”

Her reality show is, like, important: “We’ve had more episodes than ‘I Love Lucy!’ And I’m proud that we give so many people jobs. Like, our lighting guy handing me a key chain last season and said, ‘I just want to thank you — I’ve worked for you guys for eight seasons and you helped me buy a house.’ So I get a little bit frustrated at people not understanding. Like when they ask, ‘What do you do?’ I mean what an uneducated question! And I just want to help change the perception that being on a reality show is such a negative thing.”

She used to love glitter: “I was obsessed with glitter, rhinestone heels and the kind of clothes that I now laugh at, and he threw them all out. I said, ‘Well I’m going to save them for my daughter one day.’ And he said, ‘Well if it’s going to our daughter, she never going to wear those!’”

She’s being too cute by half if she genuinely believes that she didn’t ride (literally) her amateur p0rn-star status to fame and fortune. She totally got famous for a sex tape and for being friends with Paris Hilton (remember that?). She parlayed that into a reality show and the first DASH store and a decade later, here we are. Now she’s famous for a sex tape AND being married to Kanye West.

And I seriously hope that as North West grows up, she demands to wear glittery pink everything, just to piss off her dad.
