Kim knows about pageants. She used to have her own pageant coaching business and there was a reality show about it at one time. Her mom and sister were in it, too. It was a very entertaining show to say the least! I liked it a lot. Kim of Queens was the name it that show. The name of her 'shop' was The Pageant Place.

If anyone has the Lifetime Channel app on Fire stick/tv or Roku her show is on there. It's called Kim of Queens. It was a short lived series, I never did watch it.

@puttypiesmom  Kim still has killer legs! What a fabulous voice . . . had no idea she was so talented.  Love her natural hair and eyebrows. Didn't we all wear shoulder pads like that in 1991?  Thanks for sharing.

She really is a very nice person.  I asked her once about the girls on Pagent Place.  She answered my post and said she still sees them often and that her sister was now running the place.

Yes, I did!  I used to watch the show she had when she and her mother and sister coached young girls for beauty pageants.  I loved that show.  She was wonderful on it.  So inspirational and I believe many of the young girls could identify with her what she went through.  And she seemed so down to earth and funny and sweet.  Her sister and mom as well.  She was not the typical pageant girl and winner.  She was and is an exceptional person!!!

Yes I did.  She has talked about it before, most recently during her show with Carolyn. 

 

I think she looks exactly the same now as she did then, just with dark hair.  I like her blonde hair much better.  Her voice is amazing.

 

I used to watch Kim of Queens.  Prior to that I had never heard about her.  I didn't care for the show but I enjoy Kim on QVC.

@puttypiesmom I didn't know that. I have always thought she was a very pretty woman. I really enjoy her and her line.
