Kris Jenner Says Kim Kardashian Should Become Kim West
Kim Kardashian should take on her fiance Kanye West's last name after they exchange vows, her mother Kris Jenner says.
Kardashian, the 33-year-old "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star, accepted rap mogul Kanye West's lavish marriage proposal on her birthday last October. While Kardashian's mother and manager Jenner has expressed her approval for her daughter's upcoming nuptials, she has also been sharing her thoughts about the future union.
One of those thoughts is her daughter changing her famed last name which has become her brand.

"Who wouldn't want that," Jenner said on TODAY Recently. "If you're getting married, it's kind of a very traditional thing."
The grandmother told hosts Kathie Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb that West is an "amazing" future son-in-law. Still she previously revealed that she may not be involved in any wedding planning.
"I don't know if they'll let me jump in," Jenner told PEOPLE last year. "That's two very creative minds getting together and they definitely have their own ideas."
Although Kardashian has been married twice before, West's first marriage will be to the "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star. She spoke about letting the fashion forward rapper take the reins with all of the planning.
"As far as wedding stuff, we haven't even talked about anything-it's been such a whirlwind. We need like a moment to relax and figure it all out," Kardashian previously told E!. "I'm going to leave this up to him. Whatever he wants."
West and Kardashian welcomed their daughter North West into the world last June and while the former has been accused of being an opportunist by some in the past, the rapper insists their relationship is deeper than that.
"She gave me everything. She gave me a support system," West told BBC Radio 1 previously. "She's in a powerful enough situation that she could love me without asking for money, which is really hard for me to find."
