Kim Kardashian wants to run for mayor.

The reality TV star has revealed plans to enter the political arena in 2017 by running for the position in Glendale, California, where a quarter of its residents share her Armenian background and has already asked close pal Noelle Keshishian to help with her campaign.

Speaking to her sister Khloe during an episode of 'Khloe & Lamar ', Kim said: "I decided...I'm gonna run for the mayor of Glendale...but it's gonna be in like five years.

"You have to have full residency in Glendale...so I have to buy a house there. Noelle and I are looking into all the requirements. It's Armenian town."

Kim isn't the only celebrity to consider politics. In December Alec Baldwin cancelled his plans to run for New York City mayor because he said he isn't as "horny" for the role as other candidates, who have a much bigger appetite for the job.

He explained: "I've lost my appetite. They're all just so horny for it."

He added the other candidates are "like a guy on a date that you can tell he just can't wait to get his hand up your blouse before even the lights go out in the theatre".
