She says it’s her way of overcoming childhood bullying
Wanna look more like Kim Kardashian? Well, if you really commit, it could cost you some serious dough.
In Claire Leeson’s case, looking like Kim has cost around $30,000. The English woman appeared on U.K. talk show This Morning yesterday to talk about her Kardashianization process, which has included breast implants, teeth whitening, hair extensions, make-up, spray tans, nails, and lots of shoes and clothes. Oh, also butt padding, obviously.
“When I get my Kimmy on I feel like I’m unstoppable,” Leeson, 24, told the program.
Her obsession began back in 2009 when she first watched Kardashian’s popular E! reality show, Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

“I was told every day that I was the ‘ugliest thing alive’ and I should kill myself,” Leeson recalled of being bullied. “When I left school, friends would tell me that I had a resemblance to Kim.
I watched [Keeping Up] and realized I had the same amount of siblings and that we have the same kind of arguments and things going on.
I thought she was so beautiful and I really wanted to be like her.”
Leeson, who’s become an Internet celebrity for her Kardashian obsession, has unsurprisingly posted countless Instagram selfies where she mimics Kim.
In the snapshots, Leeson flutters her fake eyelashes at the camera, smiles seductively as Kim, and poses provocatively like her idol.
Claire Leeson says she was bullied and called ugly as a child, and this is all part of overcoming that.
Guess she will have to just have to find a man willing to drop $30,000 to look like Kanye next.
