Kim Kardashian taking piano lessons

Kim Kardashian is embracing her musical side by hiring a classical  pianist​ Oksana Kolesnikova to give her the piano lessons.

A source close to Kim reveals the star recently reached out to  Kolesnikova, who may be the hottest piano teacher in LA, after a recommendation from singer Kenny "Babyface" Edmonds, TMZ.com reported.

The insider added that the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star's interest in piano goes back to watching her father play when she was a child. Kardashian, who also played violin in grade school, and plans to pick that up again since Kourtney just gave her one for Christmas, could make her debut in May, adding she has invited her to perform at a recital where her students show off their skills.

Kardashian has a special song planned to surprise her family, it has been reported.
