She looked amazing in a Jay Mendel dress at the Elton John AIDS Foundation Academy Awards Viewing Party in L.A. Sunday night, but just how long did it take Kim Kardashian to get ready?

"About three hours," Kardashian, 30, tells UsMagazine.com. "But not continuous. I stopped and ate, made some calls -- it was a lazy three hours."

The starlet said she actually picked out her Lorraine Schwartz sapphire earrings before deciding on the navy gown, noting, "when you play around with all of the jewelry and find the right dress, it just works out!"

But of course, the Kourtney and Kim Take New York star pointed out that the evening wasn't just about fashion.

"When I was a little girl, one of my mom's friends passed away from AIDS, so from a really young age, we became very well aware of the disease," said Kardashian. "It’s really cool that Elton puts his name with a cause that is so close to his heart. The glitz and the glam is fine, but when you come to an event with a good cause, it makes it even better!"

    @ Anne K, A week?

    Glad to see alot of people opening their eyes about this brainless, talentless, vain, skanky ho. Her A** IS Big, must be why she likes black men, they like big a**es and thats not an insult to the race, just pretty much facts kinda like alot of white men prefer blondes, just a matter of choice. If people would stop buying into ANY of the kardashians disgusting lifestyle and antics they'd be history in a nano-second. Between ALL of them they dont make one good actor, model or human!

    No kim, it took 2-1/2 hrs of you admiring your fat a** and 1/2 hour to slither into that skanky dress like the snake you are. Only takes a second to look like a ho so the rest of the time must have been spent on admiring your slimy, self centered, disgusting slu**y self.

    Funny. How long would it take her to get ready for the Oscars if she were actually a movie star!

    full of herself, this kim.

    I have to add that it didn't take me 3 hours to get ready for my very formal wedding. An hour and a half is the longest it's ever taken me to prepare for anything, that includes shower and shaving. If it took me 3 hours to make myself look my best, my self image would take a real hit. What did she need to do, trowel on the plaster and sculpt a new face? Apologies for sounding so hateful, I'm just so tired of women who constantly tell us how beautiful they are, if you're that beautiful we'd know it w/o being told.

    I usually don't post negativity, however, Kim is so overrated.. seriously, 3 hours to plaster all that crap on her face? She must be really ugly as a Plain Jane to have to spend that much time to look the same as she does every day. The publicity she gets is disgusting. And for what? Even when the Egypt tirade was going on we didn't hear as much about that devastation as we do for this dirty, pornographic, lying, cheating h0. Someone take away this girl. It's obvious from the posts 95% could give two craps about her, including myself. I can't believe I just wasted two minutes typing this. She gets enough attention for absolutely nothing. She's useless....

    Wow, three hours....and she's bragging about it? If it took me three hours to slip a dress on and make myself presentable, I would keep it to myself.

  • March 01, 2011 - 1:57pm Melissa Strickland Miles

    She is beautiful. I think she looks better with less makeup. Maybe next year she will only take 2 hours to get ready.

  • March 01, 2011 - 11:36am Lori Cullum Nelms

    I'm tired of hearing her name all the time when you watch tv, listen to the radio or internet.

  • March 01, 2011 - 11:11am Elda Reyes

    it only takes me 40 mins. to get ready for work every morn. n that's w/a shower too! but hey, it was the Oscars!!

  • March 01, 2011 - 10:52am Leonada Daviinci

    How the hell did she get an invite?

  • March 01, 2011 - 9:54am Ashley Harrison

    how much $$$ did ya drop at the party? I didn't think so. She's way over rated, I can't believe E! is now giving the younger girls their own show. Hell, might as well give them the whole dam network. K!
