Kim Kardashian is taking her new career in acting seriously — she’s willing to give up a cosmetic procedure to pursue it … but isn’t willing to do certain things for a full transformation.
The reality star was talking about her new on-camera escapades on the latest episode of “The Kardashians” — confirming her new comedy, “The Fifth Wheel,” was the subject of a bidding war … which ultimately went to Netflix.
While talking about the whole ordeal with pals — she says she didn’t think studios would take her seriously at first … but now, she’s apparently getting flooded with acting opportunities.
KK adds … “Now the pressure’s on because I’m like, ‘Oh s***, this is happening,’ I’m tripping the f*** out low-key because I have to really do this and I have to deliver.” In other words, Kim wants to do a good job … but it sounds like there are certain roles she won’t take on.
Noting she only has about 10 years of still looking good — her words, not ours — Kim explains that she’s willing to tone down Botox so she can get more expressive on camera … but the one line she’s not willing to cross for method acting is weight gain.
As Kim puts it herself … she ain’t gonna be putting on 500 pounds for a juicy part — Oscars be damned!
It’s interesting … frankly, Kim surprised folks with her turn in “American Horror Story: Delicate,” in which she starred opposite Emma Roberts as a powerful publicist in Hollywood. She had previously dipped her toe into acting with roles in 2009’s “Disaster Movie,” Tyler Perry‘s “Temptation: Confessions of Marriage Counselor” and several TV cameos.
On choosing to pursue acting, Kim says in this episode … “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.”
Don’t underestimate Kim K. or her acting dreams … ’cause she’s coming hard and fast to a screen near you, probably several times too.
