Kim Kardashian may have started out as Paris Hilton's wardrobe assistant, but she's ended up a billionaire. Like her former employer, the year-old also has a sex tape to thank for her early notoriety, however, she has left that far behind and is now one of the most recognised people in the world.

However, "with heavy hearts" the Kardashians announced in that their 20th season will be their last. And the family that is "famous for being famous" has not only perfected the art of fame, but also successfully monetised their every high-profile move. The original goal of the show was to direct attention to the family's clothing stores, but it quickly became much more than that. Selling clothes became secondary to selling the Kardashians. Presenter and producer Ryan Seacrest is one of the people responsible for bringing the show to the world, and he's called it a "highlight" of his career.

Throughout the series, Kim, Kourtney, Khloe, Kylie and Kendall, along with their mother Kris, have shared tears, laughter, numerous relationships and ever-increasing numbers of children.

The programme initially focused on Kim and her sisters, but later opened out to include other family members, including half-sisters Kylie and Kendall, who were just children at the time.

The show launched in the same year as the iPhone, and social media was a tool the family used to great effect in promoting their personal brand. Already a wealthy Hollywood family, it's worth noting that theirs is not a rags to riches story, but riches to even greater riches.

Rumour has it that Kris keeps a pile of nondisclosure agreements NDAs on a table in her foyer for guests to sign on entry, so blurred is the line between reality and reality TV when popping in for a visit. A post shared by Kris Jenner krisjenner.

Her most well-known business which accounts for the bulk of her income is her fashion line Good American, which sells both denim and activewear. Khlo is also an executive producer on the t rue crime show, Twisted Sisters, on Investigation Discovery. In , Forbes declared her the highest-paid model for the second year in a row.

Her sisters are also Calvin Klein models. Kourtney is the last of her family members to be an executive producer on KUWTK , which means that she also should earn a little more per season than Kendall and Kylie, who are only cast members.
