57 Photos of Kim Kardashian That Look Nothing Like Kim Kardashian — Turns Out, She Wasn't Always A Spray Tan Enthusiast
Kim Kardashian has been making quite a statement these days. The reality TV star is trying to break the internet with a (very) NSFW photo for Paper Magazine.
Before we kept up with her and the rest of the Kardashian Klan, Kim went from being a cute kiddo to Paris Hilton's (LOL! Remember her) BFF. In true #tbt style, here are 57 photos of Kim Kardashian that look nothing like her now.
This Red Carpet Pose
Proving that even Kardashians can get too matchy-matchy.
A 5 Star Outfit
Let’s just leave with that belt.
Not the Same
I mean… it’s kind of the Kim we know and (maybe) love. A bit different, though.
Matching with Paris
Oh man. The costume. The sunglasses. PARIS HILTON.
But really: what are they wearing? Is it for Oktoberfest? Some sort of sexy medieval outfit? The world may never know.
A... Different 'Do
I don’t understand her hair. Is it supposed to stick up like that? What’s with the center part? At least she’s with a Cheetah Girl.
2007 Fashionista
Kim, you mad?
A TRL Appearance
Oh man, a classic 2000s midriff vest. And, a giant monogrammed necklace — just in case you forgot what her first and last name start with.
Owning the Red Carpet
Look at that pose. It’s fierce. She just KNOWS she’s going to make it big.
Bangin'
Is it just me or is her face a totally different shape in this 2007 pic? We’ll blame it on the bangs.
Dynamic Duo
At least Kourtney semi-resembles her current self…
Blonde?
Hmm…I’m not sure if blonde works for her. It’s (luckily) just a wig, but she DID recently bleach her brows, so there’s that.

This Jolly Bunch
A Christmas photo from way back in the day. Maybe they’re practicing for their annual holiday card.

Those Monogrammed Sweater Days
The girls matched head-to-toe even way back in the day. I wonder if Mamma Kris made those sweatshirts.

Who Could That Be?
What’s the best part of all of Hollywood’s elite going to the same school? The fact that they get to pose for photos together, of course! Nice braces, Nicole.

Beach Day Sisters
The gang posed for a beach day photo for this throwback photo. Yeah, Kim’s pose hasn’t changed much. But those bangles? LOL.

Myspace Photo
Proving even Kardashians were into the whole peace sign, Myspace photo thing.

Mother/Daughter Cheesin'
Oh, Kimmy K and Mamma Kris. The bow’s adorable. And she may or may not look a tiny bit like North.

Bottoms Up
Showing us all that she’s always known how to own a cocktail party.

How to Get to Sesame Street
They’re wearing matching outfits and are completely fascinated with Big Bird! See… Kardashians are normal, too. Kind of….

Dammit, Kourtney
Back in the day when Khloe cut Kim’s bangs and Kourtney ruined photos.

The Short Bangs
I’m not sure how I’m feeling this look, Kim. The short bangs aren’t really your thing, but you do you.

White Out
This isn’t the way we know Kim to coordinate outfits these days, but then again this photo is from 2006.
Diva 'Do
Back. off. the. bronzer!!!
Belt It Out
This was apparently Kimmy’s signature ‘do way back in ‘06.
Model Material
Kim K. or J. Lo? TBD.
Sister, Sister
How cute is Kendall, though!!
Roar!
The good news is that Kim has given up on leopard headbands these days.
Which One Is She?
No, for real, that’s Kim on the right back in Sept. 2006.
A Look We Love
We can totally get down with this roaring ’20s Kim K. look.
One Happy Family
And here’s the whole crew because we bet you didn’t know Kourtney was the real spray tan addict back in the day.
Half and Half
This must have been a transition phase between blond and brunette.
Lovely Ladies
The Kardashian ladies have always cleaned up well.
Hoop Dreams
It’s Kimmy from the block, complete with gold hoop earrings.
Bowling Babe
Kim never before struck me as the athletic type.
Lovely in Leopard
There’s no way even Kim could recognize herself in this dress.
Family Love
And here’s all the siblings back in 2008.
Eyebrow Queens
Not sure why bleached brows were a thing, but at least Kim was in solid company for this look.

Striking in Stripes
That time that knits were Kim’s thing.
Blushing Beauty
This was quite the *colorful* look for Kim.
Freeze Frame
Wax figure or real-life Kim? It’s the latter.
Purple Princess
Guys, she used to wear things that aren’t just black and white.
Kim, the Model
Kim unveiled a new perfume, and a new look with this ad.

Unrecognizable
I SWEAR this is Kim.
Wet and Wild
Sorry Kim, but Queen Bey does the wet hair look a little better than you.

Up Close and Personal
Kim’s lashes are looking little fuller than usual.
Chilling With Paris
The friends who ignore the cameras together… don’t stay together apparently.
Strike A Pose
Can you imagine a time when Kim K. wasn’t the most famous person in this picture? I can’t.
Can't See Past My Shades
These sunglasses transform her whole face.
Side Part Of Queens
Most people still hadn’t heard of Kim K. in 2006, but it wouldn’t be long now…
Girls' Night
I still have trouble imagining the times when Kim Kardashian was most famous for being Paris Hilton’s friend, so let’s look at it again.
Some Things Never Change
Now this looks like a klassic Kim. K red carpet outfit.
Say Whaaat?
This was also my face when I found out that Kim K. had been on TRL more than once.
Um
Yeah, I don’t even know.
Current Kim
And in case you aren’t convinced, here’s Kim in 2016. See the difference?
