Kim Kardashian sure knows how to sell herself. She's so good at it that she topped the list of the highest paid reality TV stars of 2010, according to The Daily Beast.

Kimmy Cakes earned an estimated $6 million thanks to her two TV shows, Keeping Up with the Kardashians and Kourtney and Kim Take New York, $75,000 personal appearance fees and deals with everyone from Skechers to Kotex to Quick Trim. Kardashian, who owns a chain of Dash retail stores with her sisters, has also ventured into the perfume, cupcake mix and assorted treats businesses, has a line of Beach Bunny Swimwear, a stake in the online company Shoe Dazzle and just released the book Kardashian Konfidential.

Her sisters, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian, ranked Nos. 7 and 8 on the list respectively, with an estimated income of $2.5 million each in 2010.

The Hills' Lauren Conrad came in at No. 2 with an estimated 2010 haul of $5 million, Real New York City Housewife Bethenny Frankel ranked No. 3 with $4 million, and Hills co-star Audrina Patridge took the No. 4 spot with $3.5 mil. Kate Plus 8 star Kate Gosselin came in at No. 5 and Jersey Shore's Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino garnered the No. 6 spot thanks to his fist-pumping skills, a book deal and sales of his fitness DVDs. And Paul "DJ Pauly D" DelVecchio ranked No. 9 with an estimated income of $2 million.

Kimmy took to her blog to confirm the latest E! reality show centered on her family.

"It's official! Kourtney and I have moved to NYC to film our brand new show for E! Kourtney and Kim Take New York!!!! I could not be more excited to spend the next couple of months in one of my favorite cities! When we decided to open a new DASH store in the city, Kourt and I felt that someone needed to be here to help out with the store and make sure everything was running smoothly. After talking with my family, I decided that I would join Kourtney, [Kourtney's boyfriend] Scott [Disick] and [their son] Mason in NYC."

KK continued:

"Not only do I get to spend some quality time with Kourt, I also get to hang out with Masey as much as I want. I can't imagine being away from him for so long! We'll be filming the show over the next couple of months and capturing all the fun and drama that will no doubt unfold along the way. Get ready NYC ... Kim and Kourtney are in town!!!"

So you thought that Kim was the knucklehead of the Kardashian crew, eh? Well, ladies and gentlemen, think again. It seems sister Khloe is having troubles of her own. Earlier today, the co-star of E! reality show Keeping Up With the Kardashians was sentenced by Judge Thomas E. Grodin to 30 days in county jail for violating her DUI. Khloe had hoped to get the easy way out by surrendering directly to Lynwood County Jail, where her older sister Kim’s pal Paris Hilton served her sentence, but the motion was denied. Guess the days of letting D-list celebs off easy are finally over.
