Kardashian was also very close to Paris Hilton, and the paparazzi closely followed her personal life. She started her career journey as Hilton’s stylist and a closet organizer. According to Insider, she said that her goal of working with Hilton was to gain as much publicity as possible.

Her show, KUWTK, which aired on the E!, also made her very famous. She became an iconic figure due to her undeniable curvy figure and incredible looks. Because of her remarkable social media presence, she has managed to build a profitable brand and receive massive endorsement deals.

After posting a throwback photo on her social media handles, fans quickly noticed that her nose looked different. Many fans on Reddit were particularly shocked by the transformation of the celebrity star. According to Kardashian, the photo was taken 10 years ago, around 2007-2009, according to her post.

Fans were quick to comment about her nose. One fan, in particular, wrote, “Her old nose was awesome. I have a bump on my nose which I’ve grown to accept and love, so maybe I’m biased. But it was part of what made her standout. Part of her history too.” According to the fan, Kardashian should have embraced the bump on the nose rather than undergo the invasive cosmetic procedure.

However, Kardashian has in the past distanced herself from claims that she did a nose job, according to ET. But, what is apparent is that her appearance has evolved into being a prominent reality star and a worshipped idol in the beauty and fashion industry.
