KIM KARDASHIAN REVEALS FAMILY'S 2012 CHRISTMAS CARD

Kim not only appears as a sassy employee working in a matchmaker's office in the trailer for the new film, due in cinemas in March 2013, flaunting her curves in a pale pink skintight bandage dress, but her voiceover opens the film's trailer, saying: 'We have a billion dollars walking in and out of these offices looking for love.'

The footage then flashes to Kim saying to the film's star, Jurnee Smollett: 'We have a standard to uphold and that blouse, it's telling it all.'

'So does your dress,' replies Smollett. 'What's wrong with my dress?' asks Kim.

'Can you even breathe?' Smollett snarkily replies.

The film, which also stars Vanessa Williams, Lance Gross, Robbie Jones and Brandy Norwood, centres around Smollett helping her clients find love while also realising that she is unhappily married and may have found a special someone for herself, a man Kim memorably describes as: 'the largest social media inventor since Zuckerberg.'

An enthusiastic Kim revealed the trailer on her blog, writing: 'I'm so excited to reveal the trailer for the new Tyler Perry movie I am in called Temptation.

'This has been an incredible experience for me and I'm so excited for the movie to come out on March 29, 2013.'

Although Kim has appeared on the big screen in films including Disaster Movie and Deep in the Valley, director Perry had to defend his decision to cast the reality star last November, when Kim filed for divorce after her short-lived marriage to basketball player Kris Humphries.

'I believe that my films speak from the inside out, why wouldn't Kim Kardashian be invited into a film about Faith, Forgiveness and the healing power of God? What is wrong with that??' Perry wrote on his website.
