Kim Kardashian enters China's influencer world. She says she'd love to eat hot pot and play mah-jongg
BEIJING - Twelve million people watched as Kim Kardashian West opened a mah-jongg set on screen, displaying the domino-like tiles of the popular Chinese game.
"My friends play all the time," Kardashian said. "I'm the only one who doesn't know how to play. ... Now I have to learn."
The Los Angeles-based reality TV celebrity was speaking on a livestream channel run by Chinese influencer Viya, a spunky, bright-eyed woman in her 30s with more than 9 million followers on China's e-commerce platform Taobao, many of whom are die-hard fans who call themselves "women of Viya."
