00:00 Kim's staff, chefs, and nannies have some strict rules to follow while working in the
00:05 Kardashian West home.
00:06 Strict rules that Kim Kardashian makes her housekeepers follow.
00:10 In 2014, Kim Kardashian, along with her then-husband, Kanye West, purchased their first home shortly
00:17 after they tied the knot.
00:23 After Kardashian filed for divorce in 2021, the reality star purchased the home from West
00:27 for $23 million.
00:29 Kim Kardashian buys LA home from Kanye West for $23 million amid divorce.
00:35 Now back in 2021, she was reportedly worth $1 billion.
00:40 Despite being known for her lavish lifestyle and impeccable fashion sense, Kim has been
00:45 gaining attention lately for an entirely different reason.
00:48 With a fortune estimated to be around $1 billion, the reality star turned business mogul is
00:53 definitely sitting pretty on top of the world.
00:59 Now Kardashian's home is the definition of minimalism and simplicity.
01:03 To keep it that way, the Skims founder has a few strict rules in place for her housekeeping
01:08 staff who are tasked with making sure everything is up to par.
01:11 She created a very important rule for whichever workers are with her.
01:15 First on the list of rules, Kim requires certain sheets on her bed.
01:19 According to Radar Online, a source claimed that Kardashian has a certain preference when
01:23 it comes to the type of sheets she wants on her bed.
01:26 She would only use white silk linens and she was very particular about them.
01:29 They had to be silk and they had to be changed daily, the source said.
01:33 Of course, since the sheets were stark white, by the next day they'd be ruined.
01:36 Every single morning her white sheets would be covered in makeup.
01:39 There was always mascara and foundation everywhere.
01:41 Why is she not cleaning her face before bed?
01:43 Great question.
01:44 Number 2.
01:45 Kim has been accused of refusing to give housekeepers breaks.
01:48 Back in May 2021, a slew of former housekeepers who worked for Kardashian filed a lawsuit
01:53 against the mogul after she failed to pay them overtime, cover expenses and provide
01:58 legally mandated breaks.
01:59 According to NBC News, workers accused Kardashian of withholding 10 percent of their pay for
02:04 taxes and not reporting their employment to tax authorities.
02:07 Plaintiffs never received any pay stubs or not paid on regular pay periods, were not
02:11 given their required meals and rest breaks.
02:14 The lawsuit filed by LA attorney Frank Kim told the news outlet.
02:17 In response, a representative for Kardashian said the former housekeepers were not employed
02:21 by Kardashian but through a third-party vendor that had no affiliation with the reality star.
02:26 Number 3.
02:27 Housekeepers must sign NDAs before starting.
02:29 Now, if you're hired to work for Kim Kardashian, you're most likely going to be asked to sign
02:33 a non-disclosure agreement.
02:34 Kim's staff and assistants all sign an NDA, a non-disclosure agreement.
02:38 When it comes to the Kardashian-Jenner family, they definitely want to make sure that their
02:42 employees aren't spreading their personal business to the press.
02:45 In the past, Kardashian has been vocal about her love of NDAs.
02:48 During a 2019 episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians, it was revealed the strict measures
02:53 that Kardashian had been taking when it came to her security, which caused the Skims founder
02:57 to publicly announce her adoration for non-disclosure agreements.
03:00 And 4.
03:01 They even have to clean up after Kim's children.
03:03 When it comes to Kardashian's four children, North, Saint, Chicago and Psalm, they leave
03:07 a considerable amount of mess behind for their mom's housekeepers to clean.
03:10 During a July 2022 interview with Allure, Kardashian shared that North's been into
03:14 special effects makeup.
03:16 She continued saying that while she and her family had been out of home they'd rented
03:19 for the summer, North decided to prank Kardashian by doing makeup on herself and her younger
03:23 sister Chicago, making the entire room look like a murder scene.
03:26 The realistic look and murder scene had even given Kardashian's housekeeper a good scare.
03:30 The housekeeper came and tried to call the authorities and called the homeowner thinking
03:34 it was a full, real murder scene and I had to let them know it was completely just a
03:38 prank and my kids were doing special effects makeup.
03:40 Let me know what you think about Kim after this story but that is all for today.
03:45 Thank you for watching.
