Kim Kardashian wants to meet you, and the voluptious vixen is giving us plebeians this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity in New City to raise money for earthquake and tsunami victims in Japan. The meet-and-greet is through the [online charity auction](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/highvalue-charity-auction) event [Charity Buzz](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/digital-auction), which started yesterday and runs through April 7, 2011.

If you have the green and want to keep up with Kim Kardashian, you know what to do. As of this writing, the max bid is at $1,020, but expect this to go higher in the coming days.

Before you bid, however, check out the terms and conditions from the website:

> Valid for 2 people on April 14, 2011 only. Travel and accommodations not included. Winner and guest may be subject for security screenings. Winner MAY also receive tickets to the talk show that Kim will be on but that is not guaranteed.
