Kim Kardashian may be a successful reality star but that's not to say she's content with her current position in life. In fact, she's determined to make it as an actress – so determined that she even hired Nicole Kidman's acting coach.

Fans must know that Kim was asked to be in Tyler Perry's movie “The Marriage Counselor” for a small role which, reports have it, will hopefully launch her acting career.

While Perry's fans are set to boycott the film if the director keeps the Kardashian collaboration, Kim made sure than, on her part, everything was just peachy.

So, she hired a top-notch acting coach to help her out with the role, Life&Style reports.

“Life & Style has exclusively learned that Kim hired Nicole Kidman's acting coach, Susan Batson, to help her with scenes for Tyler Perry's movie The Marriage Counselor, which she filmed in Atlanta last week,” the celebrity magazine writes.

An unnamed source confirms this for L&S, saying that the main reason why Kim wanted help for the part was because she knew Perry's fans were asking for her to be removed from the cast.

It was then that she realized she must do an amazing job if she wants to silence her critics.

“Susan was brought in to help Kim with her last scenes in the film. She was coaching her on how to handle the more difficult scenes she's shooting,” says the spy.

“Kim had been confident about the movie, but with recent events she has been worried that the stress of her real life would show through. So that's what Susan was there for,” adds the insider.

As we also informed you the other day, fans are still boycotting against Kim. There are at least two online petitions making the rounds now, one asking that her role in “The Marriage Counselor” be recast and one asking E! to nix her reality show.
