Kim Kardashian has spoken out over using a ‘fake’ house for filming Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

Earlier in the week it was reported that the exterior of the ‘Jenner house’ was not the real home of the family, that is seen in the reality show.

Now Kim has revealed that she too had a different exterior used in the show.

Kim was asked by a fan, ‘So is it true that yall used a fake house for your reality show?’.

‘When we film inside, that’s obviously our real home,’ Kim explained, before adding that the exterior was changed for ‘safety reasons’.

‘My old home in Beverly Hills was really my home I would get people showing up at all hours ringing my gate had to call the police on several occasions.’

‘People hoping the gate scaring me. It was so unsafe. The hollywood star tours would stop by too, bc they recognized my home from our show.’

‘After that we realized how unsafe it is to show the exterior of our homes. So now we use different homes for the outside for security purposes.’

Kim’s comments come after the ‘Jenner house’ mansion was listed for $6.25million by its real owner.

Someone’s an Angelina Jolie fan! Kourtney Kardashian was clearly taking tips from Brad and Ange’s matchy matchy BAFTAs display at Elton John’s Oscar party last night. Who needs a dreamy designer gown when you can have a tailored tuxe?

This look has got almost all the hallmarks of classic Kardashian style. Monochrome, embellished… but masculine isn’t their usual thing. Although if anyone was going to mix things up a bit, it was always going to be Kourtney, whose quirky style we always love. Give that girl a gong!

Of course, a la Angelina, her look is all Saint Laurent. But it’s that statement sequin blazer that’s really the standout piece. It’s super sharp, tailored to perfection and completely covetable.

Unlike anything else Oscar-related we’ve seen so far, you can actually buy Kourtney’s jacket. And now that it’s been reduced to £2000.98 (yes, that many zeros), it’s positively a bargain(!)

According to TMZ, the stars opted to use exterior images of a property which is in fact located 20 miles away from their actual home for security purposes.

It is worth noting as well that the family’s home appears very modern in the inside shots on the show, but the house pictured from the outside is far more rustic.

After the property is sold, its new owner can decide whether or to continue allowing the house to appear on Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

If they choose to end the mansion’s TV appearances, producers will no doubt be scrambling to find a new, similar house to act as the Jenner home.

The property may be familiar even to those who have never watched the series.

It has also appeared in Entourage, True Blood, NCIS: Los Angeles and Chuck.

Keeping Up With The Kardashians is what shot the First Family of reality TV to fame after it hit small screens 2007.

The series is currently in its ninth season and has aired over 100 episodes to date.

It was claimed by TV Guide last year that the family earn a total of $10million per season of the show.

Do half of you even have brains? CLEARLY whoever the home belongs to has said it’s okay! I completely understand why they’d do it for!

Considering Khloe has just had $250,000 worth of jewellery stolen and Kourtney $50,000 dollars cash stolen from their homes… I think its fair for them to do this for ‘security’ reasons. Get over it people

Fake house a for fake ‘reality’ show. Everything about that ‘family’ is fake….including Kimmy’s lips, her butt,
her face, her fiance, her mother, her step father, etc etc etc. The only thing ‘real’ about them is how sick
we are of hearing about them. When is that stupid show going to be canceled, just like Kris’s ‘talk’ show……??

Must be a real shock to the people with no life that actually think “reality” TV is “real”.

But hasn’t the same home been used in the exterior shots since the beginning? Before they were really that famous and wouldn’t have had a problem with security? While I understand the security thing to a degree, they are photographed outside their homes every day so what is the difference? It seems more likely to me that they just wanted to use a home that looked better from the outside for the show. Everything is about appearances to these people!

In the first couple of series, they did show their real house… Once Kris bought the new house (with the huge foyer like in the pictures etc) they started to use the exterior of the house that is now up for sale. The picture that they show of Kims house in this article really is her house. However, in recent episodes she has used a fake exterior in substitute of her Bel Air home that is being renovated

Yup, but that didn’t stop the paparazzi from getting to Khloes gates not so long back

1. The fact that they used a different property exterior on their show as opposed to the ‘real’ exterior is old news. 2. Telling Kim to go away when she was only answering a fans question is amusing. I love seeing celebs/stars interact with their following. And 3. The only reason the Kardashians are constantly in your face is because you keep reading an online newspaper that promotes them and click on the articles!

Who watches the Kardashians? This family is a house of Lies and secrets. When will this house come tumbling down? Waiting to see it happen.
