Kim Kardashian famously flaunts her curves these days.

Growing up?

"I never knew to embrace curves," she told UsMagazine.com Wednesday as she and sister Khloe unveiled their second clothing line at Bebe in Beverly Hills. "I looked at my aunt and cousins and saw these Armenian women with big butts and boobs, and I didn't really realize how attractive it actually was then. Your perspective grows."

Luckily, "our parents raised us to be comfortable in our own skin," added Kim, 29. "Now I think we like to wear tight things, we love feeling good, taking care of ourselves, wearing what we want. And Khloe has lost a lot of weight. We love being sexy and reflecting that in the collection."

Before she dropped 30 pounds, "I'd always be in tight dresses," Khloe, 25, told Us. "In my head I did not think I was ever fat. Other people did, but I didn't think I was - ever! Because of my family base, I always accepted my natural shape or what I thought it was. I appreciate it now and I want to help other people."

Her tip on getting in bikini shape for the summer?

"I lost 28 pounds off the Extreme Burn Quick Trim," Khloe told Us."I love it, personally. I think it's the best thing in life."

But, Kim warned: "Don't take it on an empty stomach because it has a lot of green tea and you could get jittery. Eat something!"

    I finally watched the Miami show last night and was totally disgusted by these pigs! These pigs have no class whatsoever, no brains or self-respect. I mean seriously one was pumping milk, then they were playing with it and a bikini wax? No wonder none of the Laker wives deal with these pigs, the Laker wives have class and these piglets don't and never will. They prefer to be sleazy just like their daddy was with OJ! They love their curves? Really? Then why all the plastic surgery, fake boobs, fakes asses, botox and fillers? These pigs have taken filth to a whole new level and there is no turning back from there. What an embarassment to their culture!!

    i think she is really pretty

  • May 23, 2010 - 2:46am ASKMEN.COM

    They act like it's cuz they are whatever Arab race. WHATEVER. Her mommy and daddy can't move their faces and neither can Kim...its called plastic surgery. Hey Kim did you "race" give you a face that can't move....because when you were a teen you werent well endowed. What about your plastic snoz? Look at her nose and tell me if it looks natural...yea right.

  • May 23, 2010 - 2:43am ASKMEN.COM

    Yea Allen your a brain surgeon! Fake tits don't go away!

  • May 23, 2010 - 2:42am ASKMEN.COM

    OMG this is getting ridiculous! She really thinks she invented curves...nope her plastic surgeon gave her them. It is well documented that she not only got atleast one bood job, but her face which can't even move and lipo atleast once! She is so shallow...has no personality, no human qualities to speak of and really makes Americans look bad! How is this plastic surgery nightmare good for kids to look at? Nothing on her is real...she has a bood job...she can't move her face...that same old half grin that she just can't shake! She had freakin lipo...this is healthy?

    That's a bunch of baloney. Always lying.

  • May 17, 2010 - 8:07pm Allen

    She looks great. She still has an ass and boobs so I wouldn't say she has no curves.

  • May 17, 2010 - 2:14pm Trish

    I'm not a hater, I just call it like I see it. I think Kim is beautiful. But don't write an article where you claim that you are so comfortable with your curves, and promote a weight loss supplement at the same time! Not to mention the plastic surgery she's had over the years. She barely even has her famous curves anymore after all of the weight she's lost!She's happy with herself after dieting and plastic surgery, not because of how she was raised. And poor Khloe's story is even more sad. She never had a problem with her body but people told her she was fat and she went and lost 30 pounds! It's just sad that these poor girls care so much what they look like and try to act like they don't.

  • May 17, 2010 - 6:24am o my why why>>??

    You can still have curves but keep healthy this is what they are promoting. Whats wrong with embracing curves to a healthy weight, if she didn't you would knock her for endorsing heart disease. What ever she does the haters will keep on hating. Jealous. She looks great.

    If they love their curves so much and embrace their shapely bodies, then why are they constantly in articles about how they lost 5-10 lbs. and are spokespeople for a diet supplement? Hypocritical much?

  • May 16, 2010 - 2:45pm LustyClassyPink

    somebody please tell this hoe, to shut the hell up, Kim dont forget you did a porn tape, your nothing better than michelle, as a matter of fact, you blame your mother for posing nude and what not, are you gonna blame her to for makng the porn video, oh no that was all grown up kim making wise decisions, everyone please understand, her family is a joke, even her 16 years old sisters know how to hang on a pole, world trash divas........

    this tramp is a disgusting piece of trash.

  • May 15, 2010 - 4:29pm Craig

    Learn how to spell Tress! I think Kim looks good here in a dress. I wouldn't however think a young woman would wear that out on the streets. It looks like a dress to go clubbing in or something.

    Love to see the HATERS running as fast as they can to a Kardashian post! Hating keeps the girls fabulous and rich! Chaching!

  • May 15, 2010 - 2:17am IHateKardashianBullshit

    Kim and Khloe both say they've learned how to embrace their curvy bodies and their heritage of big butts and big boobs? THEN WHY DID THESE TWO STUPID ASSES LOSE WEIGHT ON PURPOSE? These 2 are stupid beyond belief and they're full of crap. If you love your body the way it is, YOU DON'T GO AND LOSE WEIGHT. Stupid crap liars.
