Kim Kardashian will once again be a single lady. Her relatively
unknown first marriage was at the age of 20, to music producer Damon
Thomas. That relationship lasted four years, ending in 2004, after
which Kim dated R&B singer Ray J, who starred in her infamous sex
tape which was leaked to the public in 2007.
Here are more little-known facts about this reality television
darling who has filed for a divorce from her husband and NBA player
Kris Humphries.
1. Middle Name - Kim Kardashian's middle name is Noel and her first
name - Kimberly - was shortened to Kim.
2. Meaning of "Kardashian"- Her last name in Armenian means "son
of a stonemason." Although only half-Armenian, she states that she
"was raised with a huge Armenian influence, always hearing stories
of Armenia, eating Armenian food and celebrating Armenian holidays."
3. Relationship with Paris Hilton - Kim and Paris have seen several
highs and lows throughout their relationship. It was Paris who
introduced Kim to the socialite scene in Hollywood in 2007. However,
their relationship was strained after Kim shot to fame dramatically,
often overshadowing Paris.

7. PETA and Kim Have Always Been at Loggerheads - Kim stirred up
controversy, posting a photograph on Twitter of her holding a cat
by the scruff of its neck. Her excessive use of fur coats has also
always attracted criticism from PETA.

Ottoman Empire during and just after World War I. Kardashian has
always been a supporter for recognizing the genocide as such and has
