Khloé Kardashian Reflects On Being Nicole Richie’s Assistant, “I Needed a Job”
Keeping Up with Kardashians star Khloé Kardashian recently opened up her career before her fame while on the Emergency Contact podcast,
“I was Nicole Richie’s assistant and you were Jonathan Cheban’s assistant and we met five faces ago,” Khloé said to Simon Huck.
Khloé shed light on her relationship with Nicole Richie,
“I went to school with her,” Khloé added. “She was one of my best friends growing up and we were just really, really close and then when she started doing Simple Life — I think it was after Simple Life — she just needed some help and I just needed a job.”

Khloe didn’t work for Nicole long before KUWTK started, but they never imagined the magnitude of success.
“We were told we were a show filler and to not get comfortable. There wasn’t any pressure because it was like, they don’t think we’re gonna last, so let’s have fun with it,” Khloé said.
However, soon life changed, and now it’s all coming to an end.
“It’s devastating for all of us,” Khloé told Huck and co-host Melissa Gray Washington.
“The day it happened, Malika and I were talking throughout the day, because you don’t have to be a main character — you’re still a part of this journey from day one, even if you were in the first episode or not. You have been you Simon, you Malika, you guys have been our family. You’re on this journey with us and just for any chapter to end, that doesn’t mean everything is ending for good. That just means there’s room for another chapter to open.”
