There were reports that reality TV star and socialite, Kim Kardashian, is planning to run for public office as mayor of Glendale, California.

The reports started when Kim said she needs to buy a house in the city of Los Angeles suburb where there is an Armenian community. Kim made her unofficial announcement in one of the unaired clip of the reality TV show, Khloe & Lamar. Kim told her younger sister, Khloe, that she has plans to run as mayor of Glendale.

Kim said that she needs to establish residency by buying a house in the city and that she already asked the help of her friend Noelle Keshishian to help out in her campaign.

"You have to have full residency in Glendale...so I have to buy a house there. Noelle and I are looking into all the requirements," the reality TV star said to her sister. Kim said that she chose the place because it felt like an Armenian town

As for her personal life, Kim is reportedly involved with rapper, Kanye West. However, the two neither confirmed nor denied the rumours about their relationship. The two were photographed together in New York City.

The lyrics to West's single are what originally sparked rumors that he and the reality TV star might be dating: "And I'll admit, I fell in love with Kim/Round the same time she had fell in love with him/Well that's cool baby girl, do ya thang." These lyrics refer to Kim and her former husband Kris Humphries.

Some claimed that this is a PR stunt for both celebrities as Kanye has a new single out and Kim is promoting the new season of "Keeping Up with the Kardashian." However, a source of US Weekly said that, "It's not a PR stunt," the source insists of the rapper and reality star.

A reality TV hit, a successful clothing line and tons of endorsements; is politics really the next chapter for Kim?
