What inspired Kim Kardashian to strip down and pose for Playboy magazine? Many believe it was for nothing more than the fame and they would likely be right. She already generated her fame by hanging around Paris Hilton, who went from party girl to international star with one quick home video that shocked the world.

Kardashian also had her own tape that helped boost her as well. Somehow she has parlayed all of this into her newfound status as a Reality TV star for E! Online where she and her family spend time revealing their lives on "Keeping up with the Kardashians" each week.

Kardashian and her family interviewed by Larry King on his talk show. Kim talks about her Playboy photos and posing for the men's magazine. She told CNN she was proud of her work with the magazine but when it came to that wild sex tape with ray J, not so much.

She said she's ashamed of the tape of course and she then went on to open up about more of the show, but mostly was there to promote the second season of "Keeping up with the Kardashians".
