Khloe Alexandra Kardashian (born June 27, 1984) is an American television personality and fashion entrepreneur. She is best known for her appearances on the reality show Keeping Up with the Kardashians.
Kardashian was born in Los Angeles, California to attorney Robert Kardashian and Kris Jenner (née Houghton). Robert Kardashian, best known for being O. J. Simpson’s lawyer during his murder trial, died on September 30, 2003. Her mother, Kris, divorced Robert in 1989 and married Olympian Bruce Jenner in 1991.
In the early- to mid-'90s, the structure of Khloe's family changed dramatically when her parents split up and her mom married former Olympic gold medalist, Bruce Jenner, and two more siblings followed. Khloe's father also gained attention as a friend of O.J. Simpson and a key member of his defense team.
Although her family name was famous through her mom's second marriage and her dad's ties to Simpson, Khloe Kardashian herself wasn't a Hollywood name. Four years after her father passed away, Khloe was invited to appear on Keeping Up with the Kardashians, a reality-style TV glimpse into the exploits of the Kardashian clan, with a lot of attention devoted to Khloe's older sister Kim. Since the series first aired, Khloe has developed her own base of fans who respect her thoughtful ways and entertaining dialogue. It wasn't always fun and games, as Khloe was arrested for driving under the influence, but she has bounced back as the co-owner of the trendy L.A. shop Dash, and the personal assistant to her sister, Kim. With the show renewed for another go-around, fans will get to spend another season watching Khloe grow up.
Khloe Kardashian was born as the youngest of three sisters, with one brother born after her. Khloe's father, Robert, was a highly touted criminal defense attorney and her mom, Kris, was the owner of Smooch, a well-known shop in L.A
In 2007, Kardashian was invited to co-star in E!'s Keeping Up with the Kardashians, a reality show centering on the lives of her and her sisters Kim, and Kourtney. Since the beginning of the series, she has become a significant character on the show and has developed her own fan base.She is known as "the voice of reason" and for her sarcastic remarks. She is considered the "free spirit" of the family.
Kardashian is one of the celebrities competing in the second series of Donald Trump's The Celebrity Apprentice. This season began airing in early 2009.Each celebrity will compete to raise money for their favorite charity; Kardashian's is the Brent Shapiro Foundation for Alcohol and Drug Awareness.Khloe was Project Manager for the 2nd task of the season, and she led her team to victory earning $20,000 for her charity. Kardashian was fired in the 6th episode for earning a DUI which Donald Trump was unaware of until a recent project.
In April 2009, both Kourtney and Khloe announced that they get their own reality TV spin-off, which will follow their move to launch a Dash store in Miami, Florida. The series, Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami, will debut on E! in August 2009. In between the taping, Khloe will also add radio personality to her resume starting May 29, 2009, when she joins Miami Top 40 Mainstream outlet WHYI for a weekly four-hour talk/entertainment program.
