Kim K's SKIMS Brand Helped Her Become A Billionaire

Back in April, Forbes confirmed that Kim had officially reached billionaire status. One of the contributing factors to this milestone, was the success of the SKIMS brand. Kim generated $780 million from October 2020-April 2021, as KKW Beauty, SKIMS, revenue from reality TV, endorsement deals, and other investments, were added in.

SKIMS was officially launched in 2019, and Kim has a majority stake in it. This spring, SKIMS was estimated to be worth $500 million, as at this point, that number has likely grown significantly. It ended up being the piece of Kim's brand that ultimately boosted her to that billionaire mark.

Kim Is Also Trending For Her 'SNL' Hosting

Last month, Kim also hosted "Saturday Night Live," and was the first Kardashian to ever host the iconic show. The episode featuring Kim, was the second episode of SNL's new 47th season. Kim captured everyone's attention, with her opening monologue, as it featured jokes about O.J. Simpson, her divorce from Kanye West, Caitlyn Jenner running for governor of California, and more.

In a new "Drink Champs" interview, Kanye West definitely appeared to not like Kim's divorce joke at all. He claims that SNL forced Kim to insert that into her monologue, but insiders with SNL stated that Kim came up with her own content, with the network only adding some suggestions, into it.
