Kim Kardashian Tells Oprah Curves & Dark Hair Are Keys to Kardashian Success (VIDEO)

KardashiansAs Oprah's big interview with the Kardashian family nears this Sunday, more and more bits of the conversation are being dropped to tease and tempt us to watch. In the latest we get a peak at what the Kardashian siblings say about Kris Jenner pimping them out and what they think is key to their success.

In a clip, Oprah flat out asks Kim, Khloe, Kourtney, and Rob if they think they'd be successful if they weren't "good looking kids." Rob is the first to jump in, and he gets pretty close to the foul line saying, "Well, they're not, like, skinny women."

Fortunately, Khloe steps in to save him. "I mean in today's society, yeah, to be honest, probably not. You have to have this bombshell over here (she said pointing to Kim) and this petite little bundle of joy (motioning toward Kourtney) and this hunk next to me (which was Rob)." She didn't mention herself, but, of course, everyone loves her best. It was Kim, however, who most specifically spoke to the question of why people are obsessed with the Kardashians. And no, she didn't make any mention of her sex tape.

But I don't think [our success] would've happened if we were all like skinny, pretty models. I think it has to do with us, the curves, the dark hair.

Who knows what it is -- the answer to that is the billion dollar question, that people have been trying to figure out for years. Whatever it is it's NOT because their momager Kris Jenner is pimping them ... or so Kim says.
 
No one will fight harder for you than your own mother. She knows us. She knows all of our moods. We just get each other. We vibe. It works.
 
Pimp or not, they're sitting there talking to Oprah, so something they're doing definitely works. Here's a clip -- see what you think.
What do you think is the key to the Kardashians' success?

    Oprah looked like she was trying to appear interested but was really bored out of her mind, especially at the very last part of the clip.

    I don't know... Why does everyone slow down and stare when passing a car accident?

    Oh I wondered what the secret to their success was. I always though it was the sex tape, because they have no FUCKING talent and NO being good in bed does not count as talent!

    For the record. Oprah is trying to save her network which is the ONLY reason she interviewed them. She says herself that she had to cram beforehand.

    People watch because they are interesting to watch. They are usually being themselves just like everyone else. They are nice, mean, neurotic, crazy, fun, boring, drama queens, brats, sweet, and all kinds of things, just like everyone else. They may have started as famous for a sex tape but many other sex tapes of many other unknowns have been released and those people have disappeared into obscurity a few weeks later. I don't always like the Kardashians but I don't even always like my own family. Their mom is a control freak but they let her be. My mom is one but I don't let her be. Regardless the bottom line is that this family loves the hell out of each other and they aren't perfect. I'm just tired of story after story of people bitching about them when that's what keeps them famous in the first place and people talking crap about them when they've only ever seen commercials about their shows or others comments about them. Guess what people your s**t stinks too and would smell even worse if aired on international TV!
