Even those who do not keep up with the latest events in the lives of the extended Kardashian-Jenner family seem to have a strong opinion about them. The influential family has remained in the public eye for years through multiple reality shows, starting with the first Keeping Up with the Kardashians episode that aired on Oct. 14, 2007.

The Kardashians and Jenner family members have graced several other shows such as Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami, Kourtney and Kim Take New York, Kourtney and Kim Take Miami, and Kourtney and Khloe Take The Hamptons. As the titles of these reality shows suggest, Kourtney Kardashian is one of the most notable members of the popular family.

The Kardashians are used to being in the public eye, but some fans of the family suggest that Kourtney does not have the same ambition as her sisters Kim, Khloe, and their mother Kris. Kourtney is the oldest of the Kardashian sisters, who were born to parents Kris Jenner and Robert Kardashian.

Aside from having a younger brother Robert Kardashian Jr., she is a half-sister to Kylie and Kendall. After Kris married Caitlyn Jenner, the Jenners became a part of the family as well as the show, but they are now divorced. Kim Kardashian's infamous sex tape with Ray J propelled Kourtney and her family straight to skyrocketing popularity.

Even before making her appearance on Keeping Up with the Kardashians and garnering popularity following the release of her sister Kim Kardashian's adult film, Kourtney was already making appearances in the short-lived series dubbed Filthy Rich: Cattle Drive. Contrary to what some fans think, the family is not lazy but is involved in several side projects and business ventures, in addition to their busy shooting schedules, according to Showbiz CheatSheet.

Kourtney has come under fire from the show's fans who accuse her of not having the same ambition as her sisters or the other member of her influential family. Forbes' recently published World's Billionaires List featured Kylie Jenner as the youngest billionaire of all time, thanks to her ability to monetize her huge social media following and her cosmetic business.

In short, all the members of the Kardashian-Jenner clan are associated with side businesses and ventures that have cashed in on their positions as celebrities to help grow and promote. As far as Kourtney Kardashian is concerned, she is involved in the promotion of multiple clothing items, supplements, beauty products, and soft drinks Coca-Cola.

Defenders of Kourtney Kardashian claim she is different from the rest of the family members, not just because she is lazy or doesn't have an ambition, but because she is solely focused on being a good mother to her three children, Reign, Penelope, and Mason, whom she had with her romantic partner Scott Disick.
