Kim Kardashian wants to date a "lawyer or a businessman".

The 31-year-old socialite split from basketball star Kris Humphries after just 72 days of marriage last October is now ready to move on and even wants her sisters to find her a new boyfriend.

She said: "Khloe is in Dallas, so I don't think she knows anyone. But Kourtney is really practical these days, I would trust her!

"[I'm looking for] a lawyer or businessman. Something different."

The brunette beauty also admitted she is desperate for her bitter divorce from Kris to be over.

She told Us Weekly magazine: "I'm so ready, emotionally, for this to be over."

Throwing herself into single life, Kim has shed 6lbs thanks to cutting out gluten, sugar and dairy and completing two workouts a day.

She said: "I'm on a mission. I figure, I'm single. Now is the best time to get in shape. No more sitting at home, eating too much!"

While Kim may want her sisters to find her a boyfriend who isn't famous, they may have other ideas as Khloe recently admitted she thinks her sibling should romance her friend Kanye West.

She said: "They were talking and trying to go on a date here and there, but it just didn't work out.

"I know they hung out, but I know it's never gotten to there ... I genuinely think that because we have so much in common - like our families, losing parents and we do have a lot of connections - I think that if they were to go there, it would be a long relationship."
