Las Vegas police confirmed that a performer known for her impersonation as "Mini Kim Kardashian" died at her apartment over the weekend. Kimberly Tripp was found dead on the front porch of her Las Vegas apartment just after midnight Sunday. She was 32 years old. Her boyfriend, Ricky Sells Jr., who plays Mini Kanye West at Beacher’s Madhouse, discovered her body.
“Today is a sad day,” Jeff Beacher, founder of Beacher’s Madhouse revealed. “The Beacher’s Madhouse family lost one of our founders and original members. She was our shining star. My prayers and love go out to our team and her family. She will be loved and missed by all.” On Monday, March 21, Kim Kardashian West took to Twitter to send out her condolences, writing: "My thoughts and prayers go out to Kim Tripp's friends and family! Rest in peace beautiful soul."
Tripp was well known in Las Vegas for her outrageous performances as Mini Kim, including pretending to give birth on stage after the reality star had North West, in 2013. She and mini Kanye even had a fake wedding in May 2014 after the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star tied the knot with the rapper.
Beacher's Madhouse is known for its celebrity impressionists, including Mini Lady Gaga, Mini Michael Jackson, Mini Miley Cyrus and many more.
People who have dwarfism can occasionally have health issues due to the condition, including breathing problems and weight problems. The cause of Tripp's death has not been determined just yet and no suspicious activity or circumstances were reported at the scene.
