The world has obsessed over Kim Kardashian\u2019s changing body ever since she sashayed onto our TV screens in the late noughties. But no one has ever been as obsessed as the reality star herself, admitting last year she will always \u201cstrive for perfection\u201d. And as she hits her diet and the gym harder than ever before in her quest, with fans worrying she\u2019s going too far, friends tell Closer the beauty mogul is in panic mode as she reveals she still isn\u2019t happy with the results\u2026<\/p>\n
\n
\u201cKim puts so much pressure on herself to be perfect \u2013 she puts everything into looking like this brunette Barbie doll,\u201d says an insider close to the 42-year-old mum-of-four to North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm. \u201cShe\u2019s been on an extreme diet for weeks and has lost yet more weight. Kim has the most incredible willpower, and won\u2019t fall off her\u00a0strict diet plan, even if her tummy\u2019s rumbling all night.\u00a0There\u2019s not a morning that goes by where she\u2019s not staggered out of bed at some ungodly hour to sweat her butt off in the gym. She\u2019s doing four-mile treadmill sessions, lifting seriously challenging weights, doing a hundred daily planks and squats, pounding the rope. She\u2019s totally dedicated and her body is changing, as everyone can see. But now she\u2019s in meltdown because she\u2019s worried\u00a0about possible stretch marks or losing her famous boobs.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/IMAGE-2-Kim.jpg” title_text=”DAOU Vineyards Celebrates The Daily Front Row’s 7th Annual Fashion Los Angeles Awards” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text module_class=”custom-gallery-caption” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_color=”#111111″ text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”-2.75%||||false|false” custom_padding=”4px|8px|4px|8px|true|true” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n Kim out with eldest daughter North last week<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n Last week the beauty mogul hit the red carpet at the annual TIME 100 Gala, which celebrates the world\u2019s most influential people in 2023. Kim \u2013 who was one of those honoured \u2013 wore a clingy white silk dress, with fan comments focusing on why she looked different. One accused, \u201cShe is plastic from top to bottom,\u2019 while another wondered if Kim was having \u201ctoo much surgery.\u201d It followed a visit to watch seven-year-old Saint\u2019s basketball game a few days before, where headlines again focused on her\u00a0\u201cultra-thin waist\u201d and \u201cdrastic weight loss\u201d. The TV star\u2019s body has become a brand in recent years, with Kim launching a makeup line, shapewear range, skincare line and perfumes. It\u2019s made her a personal fortune of nearly $2billion but it\u2019s also put the star under immense pressure when it comes to her looks, with followers constantly analysing every angle.\u00a0Last week, Kim \u2013 who\u00a0was previously married to rapper Kanye West for six years \u2013 unveiled yet\u00a0another range of her shapewear, taking to Instagram to\u00a0share videos of herself modelling two bikinis. Reports focused on her \u201cslender figure\u201d and \u201cstretch marks on her boobs\u201d.\u00a0<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/IMAGE-3-Kim.jpg” title_text=”2022 Costume Institute Benefit – In America: An Anthology of Fashion” force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text module_class=”custom-gallery-caption” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_color=”#111111″ text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”-2.75%||||false|false” custom_padding=”4px|8px|4px|8px|true|true” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n Kim lost 16lbs to get into Marilyn Monroe\u2019s dress at last year\u2019s Met Gala<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n Kim, who shot to fame in 2007 in Keeping Up With the Kardashians, has been heavily criticised in the\u00a0past for photoshopping her Instagram snaps, and promoting an unrealistic body image to her young fans. She\u00a0recently confessed, \u201cI care. I really,\u00a0genuinely care about looking good\u201d, finally admitting \u2013 after years of denials \u2013 that she\u2019s had \u201ca little bit of Botox\u201d and enjoys regular laser treatments. She went on to insist\u00a0that she\u2019d had, \u201cNo filler. Never filled either [cheek], ever. I\u2019ve never done anything. I have a drop of mascara on today. I\u2019ve never filled my cheeks. I\u2019ve never filled my lips.\u201d\u00a0She added that she\u2019s \u201cat peace with not being perfect\u201d but our sources say that attitude has changed in the past few months \u2013 since the end of her nine-month fling with comedian Pete Davidson last August. We\u2019re told, \u201cShe feels the pressure to land a new man and look good in time for summer.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/IMAGE-4-Kim.jpg” title_text=”2019 E!

It\u2019s an event Kim has famously made a splash at on the red carpet, wowing fans last year in Marilyn Monroe\u2019s embellished Jean Louise dress. It was the iconic outfit the actress famously wore to sing Happy Birthday to President JFK to in 1962, now worth $4.8million, and was flown in from Florida accompanied by its own bodyguards. Kim opened up about the extreme lengths she went to in order to fit in the dress, revealing she\u2019d lost 16lbs in just three weeks. She told reporters, \u201cIt was such a challenge. It was like a role. I was determined to fit. I would wear a sauna suit twice a day, run on the treadmill, completely cut out all sugar and all carbs, and just eat the cleanest veggies and protein. I didn\u2019t starve myself but I was so strict.\u201d She confessed to crying \u201ctears of joy\u201d when she lost the weight. She later revealed she\u2019d dropped even more, confirming last summer that she\u2019d lost 21lbs overall and explaining, \u201cI just completely changed my lifestyle.\u201d Last week, Kim\u00a0told her 353 million followers that outfit plans were already in the works for the Met Gala, revealing that she was in Paris and had, \u201cspent some time at Karl Lagerfeld\u2019s office to get a little inspiration for the Met.\u201d<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/flatplan-plus-content.s3.eu-west-1.amazonaws.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/3\/2023\/05\/IMAGE-5-Kim.jpg” title_text=”Kanye West & Kim Kardashian Leave K.West’s Sunday Service At Theatre Des Bouffes Du Nord – Paris Fashion Week Womenswear Fall\/Winter 2020\/2021″ force_fullwidth=”on” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_text module_class=”custom-gallery-caption” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”|600|||||||” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” background_color=”#111111″ text_orientation=”center” custom_margin=”-2.75%||||false|false” custom_padding=”4px|8px|4px|8px|true|true” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n Kim a few years ago with ex-husband Kanye West<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”]<\/p>\n As we\u2019ve previously reported, there has been heated speculation in recent weeks over whether the star had yet again turned to \u201ctweakments\u201d, as her waist got smaller and her bum seemingly got curvier. In recent months, Kim\u2019s been accused of having weight loss injections, liposuction, another bum lift and multiple non-invasive treatments. Last year, Kim revealed how she\u2019d visited Beverly Hills plastic surgeon, Dr Askhan Ghavami for a stomach tightening procedure that uses microneedling and radiofrequency. She called the treatment a \u201cgamechanger\u201d and \u201cpainful but worth it.\u201d\u00a0But even with all that, sources say the reality queen isn\u2019t satisfied with the results she\u2019s getting. \u201cShe\u2019s working so hard, which is why\u00a0it sucks so bad that she\u2019s not feeling her best self yet,\u201d says the source. \u201cHaving put so much energy and effort into this, it\u2019s really demoralising for Kim to feel dissatisfied with what she sees in the mirror. Everyone else thinks she looks great, but she\u2019s obsessed with finding any lumps, bumps, or patches of cellulite \u2013 even though every woman has it! She\u2019s really worried her boobs might start to sag, which would be devastating as it\u2019s the area of her body she\u2019s most proud of. In the past, her insecurities were always around her butt and face, now it\u2019s her chest that\u2019s causing most concern. It\u2019s really freaking her out and she\u2019s realising that however much dieting and exercise she does, she\u2019s still only human just like anyone else\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_divider color=”#000000″ divider_weight=”2px” module_class=”custom-divider” _builder_version=”4.20.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” theme_builder_area=”post_content”][\/et_pb_divider][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" \u201cShe\u2019s been on an extreme diet for weeks and has lost yet more weight.”<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":589,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_et_pb_use_builder":"on","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","_lmt_disableupdate":"","_lmt_disable":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-616","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-celebrity"],"acf":[],"modified_by":"kschwarz","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/closer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/616","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/closer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/closer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/closer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/closer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=616"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/closer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/616\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":622,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/closer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/616\/revisions\/622"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/closer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/589"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/closer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=616"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/closer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=616"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/flatplanplus.io\/closer\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=616"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
