With all the drama surrounding them this year, the Kardashians have got a spot in Barbara Walters' 10 Most Fascinating People of 2011 list. After ABC unraveled a number of popular people making it into the list, Kim Kardashian took to her blog and shared, "We love Barbara, and are incredibly honored to be a part of her special!"
"Every year Barbara Walters chooses her most fascinating people for her annual special on ABC, and this year she picked our family!" so the 31-year-old, whose estranged husband Kris Humphries is seeking annulment, wrote. "We sat down with Barbara for a family interview that will air on 'Barbara Walters Presents: The 10 Most Fascinating People of the Year'."
