Kim Kardashian Rings In 2012 at TAO Las Vegas

It’s always one of the hottest parties of the year, and TAO Nightclub was hoppin' on New Year’s Eve thanks to Kim Kardashian.

The “Disaster Movie” dame sported a bangy hairdo' while clad in a tight white dress as she showed up at the Sin City bash alongside mother Kris Jenner.

With Miss Kardashian reportedly being paid a cool $600,000 just for being there and playing hostess, guests plunked down $225 per ticket to party with the E! hottie and were served hors d’oeuvres prepared by a swanky Vegas chef while drinking from an open bar.

And despite the fact that her marriage was a disaster, Kim’s kicking off the New Year with plenty of money in the bank after her high-paying party gig.
