Kim Kardashian -- who famously regretted posing nude for Playboy -- is stripping down again.

Wearing only silver body paint, the E! reality star, 29, appears on the November issue of W.

In the issue, she opens up about her public perception.

"I'm not a drinker, and when I'm up on the table dancing, it's for the picture," she says. "Then I sit right back down. I play into the perception of me, but it's not really me. And the show reveals that."

She credits her E! reality show for improving her self-esteem. "I used to think, I have to be this or that or skinny, and now, because of the show, everyone is embracing just me, which has given me such a confidence," she says. "Now, I’m like, Why did I ever give that feeling the time of day? I’m so mature now. I’m a grown-up version of myself."

She's changed in other ways too.

Recalling her 2000 wedding to music producer to Damon Thomas (they divorced in 2004), she says: "For my wedding, I wore black leather pants, a black leather top, and Prada wedges. No flowers. And no family. It was so bizarre. I was a different person then — as I said, I always wanted to be a housewife, and I wanted to have kids at a young age. I was insecure and dependent, really the opposite of who I am today.”

When it comes to tabloid rumors about her life, Kardashian says, "I’ve learned to ignore everything. In the beginning I thought I was too sensitive for this. I’d Google myself and it would freak me out. Now I could care less if they say I’m pregnant with twins by my brother."

    This girl has some SERIOUS issues!!! She regrets doing certain things after she's done them. If she had a brain in her head then she would have looked at the pros and cons of her actions before she did them. For example, the "Playboy" spread and the sex tape with Ray-J.

    Fake azz Kim. Always playing the dummy, the innocent. Pathetic woman. You act like you are 7 years old. Why wonder you wont have a decent husband. They's get tired of your played out, fake self. And your voice? What the heck are you trying to be. My ferret sounds sexier than you Ms. Kartrashian.

    Whatever goes up must come down! The bigger they are, the harder they fall! Be humble KK!

    Sounds like a lot of haters on this site to me. Kim isn't doing anything more that any other "celeb". They ALL use their bodies for fame to some extent. So if she has a "following", you can't blame a girl for cashing in.

    "Then I sit right back down. I play into the perception of me, but it's not really me. And the show reveals that." It's never you. You never own up to any crap you do and always either play dumb or lie with a straight face. You're fake. Even your little girl voice is fake. You constantly lie about stuff, including your silicon butt and countless cosmetic procedures you've had no matter how obvious they are. We do have old pictures of you, you know? We've all seen your old pictures where you had a huge hook nose (like your dad's) and a flat butt, and nasty lines running from your nose to your mouth that you got rid of with botox and face lifts. You must really confuse us with yourself, assuming we're as stupid as you, and the part that gets me so mad is that some dumb little fame wh**re tries to insult my intelligence by expecting me to buy her BS lies that i can't seem to run away because your useless self is everywhere, including the check-out counter of the supermarket i shop at. "I’m so mature now. I’m a grown-up version of myself." Reaaaaallly? I mean, really? This is coming from a 30 year old "woman" who still calls herself a princess and speaks in a fake, little girl voice? Oh yeah, you sure are grown up. I especially liked how you played 16 year old justin bieber's girlfriend. In real life, you would actually make a great girlfriend for a teen boy because you have the mentality of a teen girl yourself. That is the age group you could mentally and emotionally relate to. And when his little fans got all jealous and mad, you loved it! All that teen drama made you feel like you were in high school instead of the 30 year old pathetic "woman" that you're. "I’ve learned to ignore everything. In the beginning I thought I was too sensitive for this." LOL you just got more shameless is all.

    She's such a lying skank. What pisses me off is that she always plays dumb and expects people to buy it. What gets me even more pissed off is that there are people out there who actually buy it. She says it was her mom that made her pose for playboy. LOL WTF? This skank is 30 years old, not 5, and i can guarantee that when she got an offer from playboy, she jumped up and down and could not believe it and immediately said, "yes." She says it was, again, her mom that said, "go for it" when W asked her to pose nude. She thinks that by blaming this all on her mom, she will come out looking like a little pure girl who was exploited by her mom the whole time. This skank is pure evil, manipulating and calculating. She thinks she is so smart. Her BS nice act is all fake. She is a fame w***e and needs to either drop dead or go away.

    she is desperate for attention !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • October 13, 2010 - 12:51pm Gloria Septien

    These women are CRAZY!! Lets stop giving them the attention they obviously lacked growing up!!

  • October 13, 2010 - 10:44am Brewster Antin

    Tina Marie Carnes - you said you never thought she'd pose nude? She did PLAYBOY for crying out loud.. She showed EVERYTHING in Playboy.. PLUS she LEAKED her own sex tape to get famous... where she's nude. So WTF are you talking about in your comment??

  • October 13, 2010 - 10:42am Brewster Antin

    This skank needs to go away. How in the world did she become famous -- just because she "leaked" her own sex tape.. she's a porn star, nothing more. With the intelligence and personality of tree bark. Go away KARDASHIANS.. You're a bunch of talentless, fame hungry, attention seeking scumbags

  • October 13, 2010 - 12:12am Jamie Douglass

  • October 12, 2010 - 5:54pm Ellen Panegasser

    I agree w/Nicholas Foster, she's quite a bit more curvy.look at the tummy and thich areas..........Hmmmmmmmmmmmmm-photoshopped? and the bologna with regretting the nude thing in playboy, I guess if you have silver spray paint on you that you aren't really nude. Oh No,just had a scarey thought....she's not cutting a demo tape singing. "Silver Finger", is she?
