Kimberleigh Zolciak-Biermann, better known by her stage name Kim Zolciak, is an American television personality. Her five-season stint on the reality show “The Real Housewives of Atlanta” catapulted her to celebrity. ‘Don’t Be Tardy for the Wedding’ was her own show, which she launched. On the show, she released several singles that became enormous hits and charted, including ‘Tardy for the Party’ and ‘Love Me First.’ Kim also has a keen sense of style and the newest trends. She knows how to get the paparazzi’s attention with her smooth and beautiful styles as a mother of six. The blonde wigs that she wears are the most controversial of the numerous accessories that she loves to flaunt. She began her career as a registered nurse, but after a few years, she decided to pursue a career in the entertainment industry, where she used her country music skills to become a television celebrity. She debuted as a contestant on the dancing reality show ‘Dancing with the Stars’ in 2015. She went on to develop her own beauty line, ‘Kashmere,’ to fulfill her dream. In fact, she collaborated on the beauty items with Susan Goldberry, a cosmetic chemist, for her brand’s ‘Kashmere Kollections’ line.

Childhood and Adolescence

Kimberleigh Marie Zolciak was born on May 19, 1978, in Pensacola, Florida, to Karen and Joseph Zolciak. Because her father was in the military, she grew up in Connecticut.
Michael Zolciak, Kim’s brother, was with her for the majority of her upbringing. Her parents were Roman Catholics from Italy and Poland.

She graduated from ‘East Catholic High School in Manchester’ in 1996. She went to the ‘University of Connecticut’ for nursing school after graduating from high school.

After completing her nursing degree in 1999, she came to Atlanta with her family when she was twenty-one years old. In both Connecticut and Atlanta, she obtained a practical nurse or LPN certificate.

Careers in television and music

She worked as a nurse in Georgia for over five years before landing her first reality show, ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta,’ better known as RHOA, on Bravo in 2008.

The show revolves around the personal and professional lives of a group of Atlanta women. From the first through the fifth season, Kim was a regular on the show. She has appeared as a guest on the show, which is presently in its ninth season.

She began listening to country music in 2008. In 2009, she debuted her tune ‘Tardy for the Party’ on the reality show. The song has been downloaded over a hundred thousand times and is the most popular song by any of the cast members of ‘The Real Housewives of Atlanta.’

Kim was cast in a spin-off of the reality show named ‘Don’t Be Tardy for the Wedding’ after completing a successful fourth season. Her wedding preparations with NFL player Kroy Biermann were the subject of the show.

Following the popularity of her second reality program, she and fellow ‘Real Housewives’ star Ne Ne Leakes were set to feature in their own show, ‘Ne Ne and Kim,’ on the ‘Bravo’ network. The show, however, was canceled.
On the ‘RHOA’ show, she also launched popular singles like ‘Google Me’ in 2011 and ‘Love Me First’ in 2012.

‘Tardy for the Party’ is a source of controversy.

Kandi Burruss, Joel Bowles, Darnell Richard, and Kim wrote the song “Tardy for the Party.” Kim, on the other hand, maintains that the song was composed by her daughter Brielle and later improved by Kandi Burruss.

The song was remixed in 2009 and 2010, but the ongoing conflict between Kim and Burruss over copyright issues throughout the second and third seasons of the RHOA show sparked controversy.

Burruss accused Kim of skipping out on some payments during the song’s creation. Her claim was also motivated by the song’s potential revenues. She sued Kim in 2013, alleging that Kim had profited from the music “without plaintiffs’ authorization, license, or consent.”

The lawsuit was eventually dropped after the judge determined that Kandi Burruss had not produced sufficient evidence to support the claims against the accused.
