Khloe Kardashian has revealed she and her sister Kourtney Kardashian had to be persuaded to do reality TV by mom Kris Jenner.

The 41-year-old star appeared on The Morgan Stewart Show earlier this month, where she detailed how her family got their start on television nearly 20 years ago.

When the opportunity came for them to star on the E! show Keeping Up with the Kardashians (KUWTK), she said she and Kourtney, 47, were not on board.

It came after Khloe, Kourtney, and Kim Kardashian, 45, had recently opened their now-defunct clothing boutique Dash.

Khloe recalled, 'At first we were like, "We're not doing this," and how my mom conned us into doing it was she said: "Think of it as a commercial for the store."'

She remembered about her mom's excitement about the prospect of being on TV: 'My mom was foaming at the mouth, of course. Her and Kim.'

The show went on to become a cultural phenomenon, airing for 14 seasons between 2007 and 2021.

Once it ended, the family began filming a docuseries titled The Kardashians for Hulu.

The original series catapulted the women, plus little brother Rob Kardashian and younger sisters Kendall and Kylie Jenner, into superstardom.

It served as a launching pad for the family members' multiple business ventures, anchoring their dynasty.

Khloe also revealed in the 46-minute interview that she and her sisters 'didn't know what the f**k we were doing' when they first opened Dash.

She explained, 'We had no employees. It was just me and Kourt. We did everything: the cleaning, the taxes, the steaming of the clothes. We had not one employee. We didn't know what the f**k we were doing.'

They were able to bankroll the flagship in Calabasas by using a $50,000 credit card issued to Kourtney by their late father Robert Kardashian, who died from cancer in 2003. 

Kim spoke about her early days as a business owner in last year's MasterClass course, detailing the difficulty she and her sisters had in trying to make Dash profitable when it opened in 2006.

Kim admitted she and her sisters had a track record of not 'being able to pay vendors back on time,' so they 'had to pay for everything up front.'

They inherited 'a little bit of money' from their father – used to obtain a lease for the store – and used Kourtney's credit to buy 'all of the inventory.'

'We would pay just the minimum every month when the credit card bill would come,' she divulged. 'This is probably the worst advice because you probably should be paying your credit card bill off, but we just didn’t have the money.' 

The multihyphenate is now the founder of the billion-dollar undergarment brand SKIMS, and she's also launched beauty brands.

Meanwhile, Khloe created Good American, anchored in producing jeans. She also recently launched Khloud protein snacks.

For her part, Kourtney heads the lifestyle brand Poosh, and also created a line of gummy supplements called Lemme.
