The Kardashians themselves accept that had there been no sex tape, there would have been no reality TV show.
Turning what many considered a PR disaster completely on its head, astute businesswoman, Kris Jenner, harnessed her second oldest daughter's infamy into a multi-million dollar empire.
And while Kim may have her mother to thank for creating her career, the same can't necessarily be said for Kris' two youngest daughters, Kendall and Kylie.
Filmed from a young age, the Jenner sisters had little say in the matter, but unlike their older sisters, their current careers aren't based solely on reality TV, with both of them having branched out in other directions.
With Kendall making waves in the world of modelling and Kylie devoting much of her time to her cosmetic line, insiders say it's only a matter of time before the Jenner girls break free, and it sounds like Kylie is with them on that one.
According to Star magazine: "Kendall‘s got her modelling career, and Kylie would rather focus on her lipstick and cosmetics lines. They don’t need the show to survive."
"Kylie is so sure of herself that she recently dissed Kim, telling her big sister she was more famous now," they added.
Will Kris loosen the leash, though?!
