Kim Kardashian West says she will not rule out running for office following her recent success of getting a woman's life sentence commuted.

In an interview with CNN she said it's not where she's currently at, but she won't rule it out.

"I guess never say never. But that's not going to be like, Kim's running. That's not where I am."

Last week the reality TV star put her celebrity platform to good use and made a case to the Oval Office for convicted drug dealer Alice Johnson's charges to be commuted.

"I honestly saw that if I could use my platform just to do something for one person, that it opens the conversation for so much more and for other people to want to do the same thing," she told CNN's The Van Show.

Ms Johnson had been serving a life sentence since 1996 for non-violent drug-related charges.

Now Kardashian is saying she doesn't want to stop there and hopes to get more incarcerated women out of jail, "one person at a time".
