It’s hard to decipher whether Kim Kardashian had world
domination on her mind during the filming of the infamous sex
tape that catapulted her to notoriety, featuring R&B singer and
boyfriend at the time, Ray J. However, the end result was
pretty much just that. Eight short years since the tape’s release,
and much to the dismay of many, the Kardashians seem to have
slowly taken over the world. You can’t even go to your local
convenient store without seeing an image of a Kardashian,
followed by a scandalous headline on one or more of the
tabloids. And of course, you’ve seen the household name no
less than 50 times while maneuvering through the web and
social media, before making your way to this very article. The
Kardashian women have certainly built an empire that cannot
be denied. Here are 9 signs that the Kardashians are slowly
taking over the world; whether we like it or not.

9. Famous For Being Famous
The family (namely Kim) receives tons of flak for being
famous for no real reason, and are perpetually parodied on
many comedy shows, but with all that fame, comes all that
power. Although the origins of the Kardashian broods fame can
really only be traced back to one little infamous sex tape, the
entire family, 3 generations worth, is today known by the free
world on a first name basis. Admit it, KKK makes you think of
only two things. The Ku Klux Klan or Kim, Khloe and
Kourtney Kardashian.

8. The Kardashian Brand
The Kardashians have become so famous that they have
cleverly managed to take advantage of their popularity by
successfully branding themselves. They sell everything from
designer clothing out of their DASH! boutiques, to bottled
water, which Kim explains in an interview sells out constantly
because their image is featured on the bottle and fans consider
them collector’s items. Kim Kardashian recently revealed that
she is planning to release a book of selfies, titled Selfish in
April 2015, which will no doubt sell out among die hard Kim
Kardashian fans.

7. Immensely Popular Kim Kardashian
App
Kim Kardashian teamed up with Glu mobile to endorse the app
Kim Kardashian: Hollywood, which was released in July of
2014, and raked in hundreds of millions of dollars in just the
first month ($85 million of which the socialite was able to
pocket). An EPA Office of Water was caught playing the game
when she accidentally tweeted her progress. An author at
jezebel.com admits to having spent nearly $500 on just the
first few times of playing the addicting game. Before Glu
decided to partner up with Kim in order to increase the
popularity of the app, the game was known as Stardom: The A-
list and was virtually unknown and not nearly as lucrative until
Kim’s association. The game is frequently among the top 10
most downloaded and top earning games in the app store.
Game cheat: if you set the time in your phone to hours ahead,
you can level up on energy without having to spend a dime on
in-app purchases. You’re welcome.

6. Power Couple: Kim and Kanye West
Kim’s relationship with Rap superstar Kanye West, instantly
took her from Z-list reality television star, to A-lister,
practically over night. The pair have become the most talked
about couple ever since, and their marital union has brought
their combined net worth to $184 million. Kim has gone so far
as to hyphenate her last name to include West, a move she has
never previously done with her first two marriages. Kanye has
mentioned in interviews that he intends to use his connections
within the realm of high fashion to open doors for his wife. The
couple’s wedding photo is ranked as the most liked picture on
Instagram, with over 2.4 million likes. The pair welcomed a
daughter in 2013, and the trio are frequently photographed in
matching outfits while out on the town.

5. Jenner Half Siblings Have Become
Equally As Famous
The popularity of Kim, Khloe, and Kourtney has trickled down
to their younger half siblings, 17 year old Kylie, and 19 year
old Kendall Jenner, who are just as talked about as their older
sisters. The two teenagers spent their lives growing up on the
reality show, and frequently admit in interviews to being so
accustom to the fame and attention that they really wouldn’t
know what to do without it. Rumors of a Jenner spin-off were a
buzz until Kendall confirmed that she was more interested in
pursuing a modeling career of her own, than in continuing with
the reality TV family tradition.

4. Talked About On Every Website
The Kardashians are heavily featured on gossip sites such as
TMZ, toofab.com, fishwrapper.com and countless others,
including right here on nairaland It’s virtually impossible
to surf the cyber web without running into an article involving
the popular bunch, whether it be the numerous plastic surgeries
they’ve had, a new hair style, or their dating habits.

3. The Kardashians Have Taken Over
Social Media
All of the sisters are among the top 11 most followed instagram
accounts: Kim taking spot no. 2, Kendall no. 7, Khloe no. 9,
Kylie no. 10, and Kourtney no. 11. They have a combined
following of over 45 million. Kardashian family affairs are
constantly trending on social media outlets such as Twitter and
Facebook.

2. Constantly Headlining The Tabloids
It is rumored that the famous family is among some of the
celebrities who have developed a business relationship with
the tabloids, in which an agreement is made to keep fabricated
sensationalized stories in the papers to maintain their
relevancy. As the saying goes, no publicity is bad publicity,
especially when you have a clothing line to promote. For the
Kardashians, headlines translates into sales sales sales, as well
as ratings. Although they do a good job of seeming irritated by
the paparazzi, some have gone so far as to suggest they have
the paparazzi on speed dial.

1. Combined Net Worth Of Over
$240 million
The Kardashian Klan have a combined net worth of
approximately $239 million placing them among the 1% of
richest families in the world. To break it down: Bruce Jenner
$100 million, Kris Jenner $30 million, Kim Kardashian $64
million, Khloe Kardashian $20 million, Kourtney Kardashian
$18 million, Kylie Jenner $3 million, Rob Kardashian $2.75
million and Kendall Jenner $2 million, and that’s without
adding the net worth’s of new family members.
