From promoting a positive body image to becoming a successful self-made business women, Kim Kardashian does deserve some kudos even if people are reluctant to praise her and see that she has built an entire empire for herself and her family from almost nothing. Kim also embraces her curves and dresses in a way that shows them off and still looks on-trend – and even when faced with body critics – she won’t let them drag her down. Here are 5 celebrities who have said they admire Kim for what she is.
Cheryl Fernandez-Versini
Cheryl tweeted at Kim during her pregnancy to tell her she admired her courage when people were negative about her pregnancy figure: “Just wanted to send you a tweet to say I think you are an incredibly beautiful woman inside and out. I can only imagine how tough it is to be heavily pregnant and feeling extremely vulnerable on top of some of the daily criticism you take! I admire your tenacity and send you my best wishes with the rest of your pregnancy #enjoyyourblessing x.”
‘The Only Way is Essex’ star Danielle has always admired Kim’s style and thinks she dresses well for her shape: “I think it’s really important to style yourself on someone that has a similar body shape. I have curves, bum and booty so I always admire Kim Kardashian. She knows exactly how to dress for her figure and never gets its wrong.”
Demi thinks Kim has given people confidence in their curves: “What makes me feel sexy is being able to rock no makeup wherever I go. Also, wearing pants that showcase my beautiful ass… ets. It’s my butt. I love my butt. Hopefully it stays that way, cause this ain’t going anywhere. I really started to accept my body when the trend started becoming less about super skinny models that was completely unattainable for anybody to have. Kim Kardashian, say whatever you want about her, but she has revolutionized what’s accepted with curves nowadays.”
Kendall looks up to her older sister’s style: “I really admire Kim’s style. It’s insane. She really knows how to work her style with her body. I think she could be a major fashion icon. It’s so fun to be in Paris with her, but I’ll walk out and be like, ‘Oh, my God, I love my outfit,’ and then I’ll see Kim and I’ll be like, ‘My outfit sucks compared to yours!’”
Scout thinks Kim has done an amazing job of building a career for her entire family: “I admire her a lot. Not necessarily from an art perspective, but definitely as a businesswoman. I really do. To parlay being friends with Paris Hilton into making every single member of her family individually famous for basically nothing—you can’t knock that hustle even if you want to.”
