2009 also served as the year Kim — with the help of superstar songwriter and RHOA castmate Kandi Burruss — released "Tardy for the Party," her first single that quickly became one of the most successful songs by a Real Housewives member in the franchise's history.

Anyone who has seen an episode of the Real Housewives of Atlanta and Don't Be Tardy knows it's no secret Kim has a penchant for sporting a variety of blonde wigs. "Wigs are just easier and I love the versatility!" the star wrote on Instagram of her extensive collection.

"Makeup, the contouring and what have you, definitely [helps]," Kim told Entertainment Tonight when asked about her plastic surgery. The reality star kept things real, admitting to having had her lips done and getting botox. She denies getting a nose job, however, debunking those rumors during the same interview.

"Why would I not talk about a nose job? Actually, let me show you — my septum is completely out," Kim said. "So, if I had a nose job, I definitely wouldn't have a septum that's hanging out over here. But, I will fix that at some point if I have a breathing problem."
