The 29-year-old socialite – who has stripped naked to appear on the cover of W magazine – doesn’t mind playing up to the way she is perceived, but is happy to conduct herself differently.
She told the fashion publication: “I’m not a drinker, and when I'm up on the table dancing, it's for the picture. Then I sit right back down. I play into the perception of me, but it's not really me."
The ‘Keeping Up with the Kardashians’ star also admitted she is more comfortable with her curvaceous figure after her reality TV shows made her realise people like her for who she is.
She said: "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. Now, I'm like, 'Why did I ever give that feeling the time of day?' "
Kim recently relocated to New York to set up a new DASH Boutique with her sister Kourtney and she can’t wait to start dating in the city.
The star – who recently split from boyfriend Miles Austin - said: “I'm really officially on my own, and I'm in a whole different city. I'd be down for some hook-ups."
