Kim Kardashian’s two Paper Magazine covers are Photoshop disasters

kim paper

Kim Kardashian covers the new issue of Paper Magazine. There are two covers – one is the above cover, where Kim balanced a champagne glass on her butt and managed – through Photoshop wizardry – to pour champagne in the glass. The second cover is NSFW because Kim posed nude – go here to see the NSFW image. I’m not offended whatsoever by Kim’s butt, but I am offended by the ganky Photoshop used to make Kim’s waist look like a Barbie doll’s waist. Kim has a small waist in proportion to her curvy body, but it’s not THAT small.

In other Kardashian news… over the summer, Kim’s iOS game “Kim Kardashian: Hollywood” debuted and became an instant success. Kim had partnered with a small company, Glu Mobile, and its stock price spiked quickly. Most gaming industry analysts predicted that the game would likely earn $200 million in its first year. I still haven’t played it, but from what I hear, the game is free to download and then you can “buy money” within the game, and that’s turned out to be incredibly lucrative because the game is like crack. The game debuted in late June, and in the past four-plus months, it has already earned $43 million.

Well, we’re clearly doing something wrong. Kim Kardashian’s mobile game, Kim Kardashian: Hollywood, has made $43 million since its launch this past June, the company disclosed in its third-quarter earnings report.

In fact, the reality star’s game has earned more for the company (Glu Mobile) than all their other apps — combined! (If it makes you feel any better, the company did predict that the game would earn $200 million by the end of the year).

In case you’ve yet to play KKH, players create their own celebrity and attempt to rise to A-list fame. To get to Kardashian-celeb status quicker, players can advance by purchasing virtual goods, like a house in Malibu for $10.

In an interview with Matt Lauer on the Today show in August, Kardashian defended her game against complaints it was addictive and was able to bypass in-app purchase controls. “You just have to make sure that your parental controls are all set. I think you just have to be responsible, and don’t have your credit card linked to where your kid can just spend if they want to,” Kanye West’s wife said. “It’s just a fun little game. It’s kind of like when people get into Candy Crush so much…it’s just something fun to do.”

[From Us Weekly]

Well, $43 million is not $200 million, but it’s nothing to sneeze at. Over the summer, TMZ reported that Kim’s cut of the profits will be 45%. So, if they game closes out 2014 with, say, $60 million in profits, Kim is still walking away with something like $19-20 million in before-tax profits. This is probably one of her most lucrative ventures ever. Plus, she’s working with Glu Mobile on more games/apps too – she’s said that she wants to do, like, Kim Kardashian: Dubai and go in that direction.

    Break the internet: Kim has fake butt, fake lips, fake tan.

    • Miffy says:

      The hate in the comments on this article is something else.

      It’s such a shame that in an era where we’re all sobbing about stick thin being the norm in the media but when a short woman with a big backside (photoshopped to look bigger than it is, at that) gets her body out we’re first in line to slam her for it. Granted she’s not likable in the least (I mean, seriously, earnestly not likable) and if it had been, say, Adele in this shoot we’d all be cheering her on but surely our ideals are our ideals regardless of who is perpetuating them?

      So go Kim! With your big, oily, fake ass. I think it looks good! It’s kitschy and fun.

      • Bob Loblaw says:

        Kim is a terrible role model for young women, she represents all that is wrong with our materialistic society and deserves most of the criticism she receives. It has nothing to do with whether or not she is “stick thin” either, she is shallow, mean, superficial, greedy and vapid with or without her prosthetic ass. You say, “go Kim”, and I say, go home Kim, get a life that doesn’t revolve around mirrors and cameras before it’s too late.

      • Chem says:

        I agree. Go Kim!

      • Miffy says:

        Bob Loblaw, totally agree with everything you said but that doesn’t explain people flat out body shaming her.

      • Jayna says:

        They photoshopped her waist to be teeny tiny, but they photoshopped her back to be almost frail, very small. She’s never had a back and shoulders like that, and it is insulting to make her upper back so bony, but it was all done to make her rear look cartoonishly big. So why not make fun of that. It’s not shaming someone’s real body. She put implants or fat in her rear. They made it look bigger but then they photoshopped her waist and upper back to be stick thin to make her rear cartoonishly big, not some nude pictorial celebrating her body.

  2. FartSack says:

    That ass…I am speechless.

    • Rhea says:

      Glazed doughnuts will never look the same again for me… -_-

      • swack says:

        DM has the story about what others compared her rear to and one of them was glazed donuts.

      • bluhare says:

        My favorite was the bike rack. 🙂

      • Someonestolemyname says:

        Haha that butt photo was so over the top.

        Yuck don’t want to see anymore celeb butts!

      • Bernice says:

        She looks like she has been merged with a horse. It is ghastly looking. I mean horridly distorted. She looks like she weighs 200 pounds from the waist down. How anyone can think that looks good I don’t understand. It’s one thing if someone is thick or heavier but proportional, but she just looks terrible.

    • nikko says:

      I have a naturally big ass (it’s bigger than Kims) and I’m smaller in the waist, but I can’t hold a glass on it and neither can Kim. They added something to make her more flat. Who would of thought a big ass could be so popular.

  3. GoodNamesAllTaken says:

    She could be so pretty if she knew how to dress. It’s a shame.

    • Someonestolemyname says:

      Agree. She has a gorgeous face.

      • mothra says:

        You mean she once HAD a gorgeous face. She hasn’t looked the same for a few years now. Sad how she keeps posting old pics of herself on her instagram, and it’s obvious she doesn’t look like that anymore. Even her best friend has morphed into the new Kim so they must go to the same plastic surgeon.

  4. Loopy says:

    Been waiting for this post, why was she crying in previous shows that after all the work she has done ,she is still being viewed as sex tape star, but in the last year alone she has posed naked for a couple of magazines and starred in her hubbies tasteless video.And I cant believe her mother re posted this image. smh

  5. Maum says:

    I assumed there deliberately exaggerated for ‘art’.

    Either way it looks stupid.

    • greenmonster says:

      haha… at first I read “exaggerated for fart” 🙂

    • Ag says:

      my first thought was “is she shooting something out of her a$$?” but this does have to be ART! since they made her super thin and like 6 feet tall…

    • Wren33 says:

      I think this is recreating some famous images and the photographer is known for extensively manipulating images to create extreme body types.

  6. NewWester says:

    That NSFW photo is just too much. Does Kim think that North will see pics like that one day? As for the pic in the article, there are way too many comments I could make on that

  7. pretty says:

    I had played KK’s game. It is really really really addicting and so fun. seriously so entertaining!!

    but i am such a cheap and poor, so i looked for the hack that gives you unlimited diamonds and money and energy so after the hack, i basically played everything, bought every clothes and whatnot and it got boring really fast so now i’m not playing but at first, it was really good.

  8. Marigold says:

    The naked one looks so trashy. It’s like she just came out of the champagne room. All the wetness kind of makes me want to dry heave. If it were a less photoshopped disaster and styled differently (and perhaps if her body wasn’t real life photoshopped), I wouldn’t even care about North seeing it some day. But it is what it is and it’s bad.

  9. tmh says:

    This woman has no shame, she is a walking sex object and that’s it’s. I could only imagine how she is raising her daughter, Kim has no values other than showing off her body. That whole family including kanye west is purely trash.

    • NeNe says:

      Amen. ++++++1

    • Mo cheeks says:

      She’s going to raise her daughter the same way she was raised…. By a mother that was 100% onboard with her being 9 years old with a “serious” boyfriend and losing her virginity at 10. A sex tape. Playboy. Kim was taught at a young age that her looks, her sexuality and her ability to manipulate people were far more important than education, sports or any other hobbies or development a young person can benefit from.
      It all makes me extremely thankful for the mother I have. I envy not one aspect of Kim’s life.

      • GracePM says:

        She was dating at 9? How old was her boyfriend?

      • BoredAndExtremelyDangerous says:

        Is this correct, Mo Cheeks? I don’t know anything about her early life. If so, I’m truly gobsmacked. Her mother is far, far worse than I ever thought. I finally understand why she’s known around these parts as “Lucifer’s Homegirl” – a well-deserved moniker.

    • melain says:

      I know, right. It’s so odd to me that both her mother and her husband want her to be both naked and sexual in as many public forums as possible. Don’t mothers typically protect daughters from sexual exploitation? And husbands…i don’t know one who would want their wife to be sexual or naked with anyone outside the marriage.

      • Mo cheeks says:

        I think he was similar age but good question. Kim talked about on the Oprah special (which I’m ashamed I watched). Kim “told her mother she was feeling things ‘sexual things’ and her mom was excited and supportive.” it came across like Kris had been prepping Kim for this “big event”. And Oprah being the kiss ass she said merely said “Oh!” It was some hard hitting journalism… Not! Kris Jenner is truly a pimp.

  10. Kelly says:

    Disgusting. Her body has bizarre, cartoonish proportions. It’s not a good look. Yuck.

  11. Tapioca says:

    I think the covers are fun – she’s been photoshopped to look obviously cartoonish, not convince us that she genuinely conforms to an unachievable bodyshape. That’s for another magazine…

    I have her game and it’s pretty harmless timewasting. I do love the idea that someone went to her management with the idea of putting her name to a character becoming famous without having the slightest talent and spending half the game scooping dollar bills off the floor!

  12. Maum says:

    I know I am repeating myself but surely people aren’t seeing this thinking this is her real body? It’s not just photoshopped the way fashion magazines do as standard they’ve turned her into Jessica Rabbit. In the |NSFW version her boobs have disappeared and her arse is 4 times the size of her head.

    They haven’t photoshopped her elbows or the cellulite on her arse which is odd.

    This is just bizarre. But hey, everyone is talking about it so she must be happy.

  13. ClaireB says:

    Well, it’s a recreation of one of Jean Paul Goude iconic picture…so i can understand the concept.

    http://www.joelix.com/Soooo-Goude

    He’s a very famous photographer, funny and quirky style, it’s his take on the KK butt I guess. Here in France he has done most of the campaigns for the Galerie Lafayette.

    • amanda says:

      thanks for sharing. I don’t know if I would have ever known that. I wonder if the Paper magazine article mentions this inspiration or not…

    • The Original G says:

      Thanks for sharing that!

    • MinnFinn says:

      Yes, thanks for the link. Goude’s photos are amazing and very engaging. What a talent.

    • Anna says:

      I actually really like the Goude photos but I don’t think Kim K does them justice. I think it’s the fake smile that does it. She doesn’t look engaged in her photo just posed.

    • Josephine says:

      As an artist, he should have done something more original and interesting. This is so predictable and not the least bit innovative. Just not a fan of art that makes women look like grotesque blow up dolls.

    • ClaireB says:

      You’re all very welcome ! 🙂

  14. Dawn says:

    Goodness me. The head on that body looks like Kim 2 or 3 faces ago and that torso is so photoshopped it is so funny. They have her looking like she is 6 inches taller than she is! I have never heard of this paper or magazine but I would never buy it with her on the cover. She can only wish she looked that tall and that young. What a joke!

    • amanda says:

      2 or 3 faces ago. perfect. lol!

      • QQ says:

        Correction that looks like the face of 3 faces ago Kim Kardashian in the body of a fresh baby seal that just cause out the mom… juices and all

    • Mischa says:

      Yeah that definitely looks like one of her prior faces, when she was still really pretty, because her face does NOT look this good anymore! I wonder if Kim even had to show up for this shoot, because it looks like he photoshopped her old face onto her heavily photoshopped body.

  15. amanda says:

    this aesthetic…it’s just so old and tired and ‘omg look at me’…yeah honey, we’re looking…and all we’re seeing is Photoshop and the work plastic surgeons have been doing for the past 5 or 6 years out in LA…you are their group project and walking portfolio.

    so, what’s your point…put your glossy fake butt away.

    As a human being, I’m ready to move on when it comes to ‘art’, ‘fashion’ and ‘beauty’. The drag-queen-esque, overly-made-up, plasticized, proud-to-be-fake nonsense is just devastatingly embarrassing at this point. I wish we could pay attention to and be given (on TV and in entertainment) other types of beauty now….

  16. Sparkly says:

    If it just wasn’t so damned greasy. I don’t need her greasy two ton bubble butt seared into my retinas. All I can imagine now is Kanye going at it like a slip and slide.

  17. serena says:

    Why did I have to see this just after eating my lunch?
    I’m getting so sick of seeing her butt-naked! Just cover up, nobody wants to see your (fake) ass for god’s sake! She really knows no shame.

  18. Country girl says:

    Hahaha. This (the video game) totally sounds like the recent episode of South Park, Freemium, where the Canadians invent their game where you have to build the town but it’s mostly in app purchases and designed for addicts. This is all I could think when I read this article.

  19. ketjo says:

    That naked butt photo graph reminded me of a Artist I had read in the up and coming artists list I received as the Director of the Art Dept at our College….So I needed a artist for a showing and gala we were having …I hired him to appear and show his work ..on the basic of those few samples in the flyer…..Well he arrived and set up and I didn’t get to view his work to about a hour before the opening of the gala….and I walked in and saw…naked butts and female gentalia artistically photographed and painted all over the walls….It was one of the most embarrassing moments in my life….Shocked put it mildly…..It was too late to stop the showing so I hide for the rest of the night in the ladies bathroom and let my assistant field the reaction…..I was a coward…and it was bad really really bad ….just like those photos …people were completely disgusted…luckily I keep my position by the skin of my teeth but I never booked another artist work unseen….Trash is Trash no matter what you call it..

  20. MrsBPitt says:

    MY EYES, MY EYES!!!!!!! Why did I click on that NSFW link! There really should be some type of warning….maybe a giant ass with a line through it! Or “Do not view on a full stomach”…

  21. bored_01 says:

    Her smile is really nice to see and her actual nude bum looks good… it does. I keep looking at it LOL. Her torso in both pictures is way too heavily photo-shopped; she would have looked better a little thicker I think.

  22. Nev says:

    Awesome. Haha

  23. kibbles says:

    I think a lot of guys are into Kim’s look – those who like huge T&A – I understand most straight women being grossed out by it, but I am a supporter of more curvy women in the media. That said, she would look a lot better and more natural if she scaled back on the plastic surgery and liposuction. Her waist really is too small to the point where it looks cartoonish compared to her huge butt. If she were more realistically proportioned she would just look more naturally curvy and therefore less offensive to a lot of people. I think that corset she wears is also messing up with her proportions on top of all the lipo and the butt implants…as I said, I am a supporter of curvy women in modelling and entertainment, but Kim’s body no longer reflects realistic expectations of what beautiful women with real curves look like.

  24. Dotty says:

    I love that the nsfw pic looks as though she is emerging from a giant trash bag. But: so much oil!

    • Mon says:

      Yea, that trash bag is a ‘nice’ touch…. Seriously, who in the right mind would agree to that shoot? It’s like the photographer (or whoever thought of this idea) was trolling her but she is so deluded she didn’t get it. Judging by the way she normally dresses, she must be thinking she actually looks like this in reality…

  25. The Original G says:

    I do wish she would go way, but I think these are funny and they’re meant to be and cracking that face with a smile doesn’t do her any harm either.

  26. Magnolia says:

    Her greasy butt looks like a Thanksgiving turkey.

  27. Ruyana says:

    The continuing success of the Kardashians – their continued presence in media – merely confirms that the cumulative intelligence of the population of the United States has dropped by far too many I.Q. points, and that greed is to be aspired to and money is to be idolized.

  28. INeedANap says:

    I sometimes feel bad for Kim K. I have a pretty big booty myself in comparison to the rest of me, and I am just as tall (short) as she is, so when the comments are all “her cartoonish body is disgusting” and “she is so squat and out-of-proportion”, I feel like those same commenters would find me hideous.

    Then I remember that my body is natural, and I have a lot more to offer than my looks, and I feel better. (*ahem* to Kim K)

    • QQ says:

      and probably you know how to dress your body

      and probably you have interesting shit going with you and arent vapid and self obsessed

      and probably you sound normal and not like a drugged robot on helium with a tummyache?

      and probably if you had kids or got married it wouldnt be a transactional opportunity type thing, ya know?/

      so we’d like you a lot more, no worries, you’re good, bubby

    • embee says:

      I have NO booty but would like to have a little more! I see some ladies with butts that are as big as a station wagon and stick straight up. Kim needs to dress for her short wide and big butt body

    • shizwhat says:

      Awww woman. I dont have a booty to speak of but I felt the same things when I hear some things people say about her. Body snark is ok if its “enhanced” and we dont like the woman? Makes no sense to me.

      LOVE yourself girl, I wish I had what god gave you!

    • Josephine says:

      I don’t think people are repulsed by her natural body shape or by big butts in general. Plenty of women are praised for their voluptuous shapes.

      They are repulsed by photo shopping the body to a point where it is clear that her organs would not fit inside of her.

      They are repulsed at plastic surgery taken to the extreme.

      And they are repulsed by a person whose only use and task in life seems to be taking pictures of herself nude or semi-nude, and walking around the streets in clothes that don’t fit.

      I’m sick of the portrayal of women as objects, and she’s the number one object out there. That’s what repulses me.

    • Miffy says:

      I was hoping someone would bring this up. I know she’s not liked but when we’re constantly complaining about stick thin ideals being shoved down our throats but chomping at the bit to full on slam a person for not fitting those proportions the hypocrisy can get a bit much. It’s sad, are we that conditioned to see skinny as the only acceptable norm? Or just conditioned to hate another human enough to shove our alleged ideals to one side? It’s ugly, either way.

    • kibbles says:

      I am curvy with a reasonably sized butt and boobs, and I’m proud of it! I’m sure many skinny women would love to have larger assets while I’d like to have a naturally high metabolism and flatter stomach. We can’t have it all (without plastic surgery and lipo). But at the end of the day I’m glad that I don’t have to go to the doctor to buy my breasts and butt. I love having curves and I think Kim K. would look great if she were classy and wore nice clothes that would accentuate her natural and enhanced curves. People hate her because she is an attention whore. If she were an Oscar winning actress who didn’t bare her naked body any chance she gets, I think more people would praise her body.

    • INeedANap says:

      Aww, you folks are the best. Thanks for reassuring me I got it better than Kim K! 😀

  29. Carrie says:

    Lmfao as much as I can’t stand her the nude cover with her coming out of a trash bag cracked me up. I would say Paris is probably fuming but she’s so irrelevant now that any press for her is good press. The trash bag is also a really good analogy and I doubt she sees it.

  30. Zigggy says:

    Gross.

  31. Kemper says:

    Greased up sex doll waited for the party. eww

  32. Rusty machine says:

    Dear Kim, this is why you will never be taken seriously for your fashion game.

  33. Sullivan says:

    I’m so sick of butts.

  34. Josefa says:

    If it was more plastic looking I’d probably like it. Exaggerate it a little more and it looks like something David LaChapelle would do.

  35. Maya says:

    My eyes – my poor eyes…..

  36. Kori says:

    My 12 year old daughter *loves* the Kim Kardashian game. I don’t know where I went wrong. She doesn’t actually spend money on it though–maybe she’s ‘bought’ a few things but no more than $3-$4. We have notifications that we get everytime one of our kids buys something on their phone or on my ipad. But she gets a ridiculous amount of enjoyment out of it.

  37. embee says:

    Can’t imagine what North will think if she sees all her mother’s pictures and hears Kims life story. If my Mom had pictures like these for the world to see, I’d be so embarrassed!

    • J.Mo says:

      Who cares what North thinks?! I wanna see how Anna Wintour reacts!!

    • iseepinkelefants says:

      I doubt it will be damaging to her. People don’t realize that when someone grows up with something, that’s normal to them. might not be for you but then again you grew up with something different.

      • swack says:

        I find it sad that it won’t be damaging to or probably wont’ embarrass North. Our youth today are so immune to so meaning things that when I was growing up would be shocking. Unfortunately it’s the world we and they live in.

    • kibbles says:

      I don’t think North will be embarrassed. She will grow up in Hollywood where her friends and their mothers have done similar things like pose nude in a magazine or do a nude scene in a movie. This is normal in their world. And I would not be surprised if North ends up in the entertainment business and states in an interview 20 years from now that the human body is nothing to be ashamed of or something along those lines. She is a pretty girl and will likely be exploited by Kim and Kris very early on. She is already being forced to attend fashion shows. I would not be surprised if North is pushed to model in her teens.

  38. Anniefannie says:

    Naya Rivera shaded her on twitter by tweeting ” seriously! You’re a Mom!” ouch! Since this is someone who appeared to worship her that’s gotta hurt.

  39. shunty says:

    I just came here to say that in happy she didn’t receive much attention over these photos. (ironic). They didn’t #breaktheinternet the way we thought. Not even up to 700k likes on instagram when she usually gets a mil likes easily. Maybe (gasp) we’re getting tired. We can do it! Yes we can! Baby steps, people. Let’s be strong

  40. Stephanie says:

    I think the worst part of the Photoshop is the extra inches they added to her neck.

  41. A. Key says:

    I just LOLed really hard. Ah who cares really, the more attention you give her, the more $ she makes, no matter what you say about her. So just ignore.

  42. daisyfly says:

    Her daughter is going to have such horrible body issues because of this woman’s obsession with being thin and tan and fake.

  43. word says:

    I don’t understand why Paper magazine things Kim will “break the internet” with these pics? She’s done a sex tape, playboy, and numerous other photoshoots naked or almost naked. This is nothing new. It’s not like she’s always dressed and acted like a nun and all of a sudden did this photoshoot to “shock” the world. Please give it up Kim, everyone is tired of your act. ANY woman can look like this with photoshop so why are we supposed to be “amazed” ?

  44. Grace says:

    In a way, isn’t it good somebody has absolutely zero self-awareness bare all for us to see? Let’s hope she’s not jumping on the feminist bandwagon. Because, that’s just… urgh.

  45. me says:

    It’s been a very slow news week in the media. so of course the magazine waited until there was NOTHING else going on to talk about. Kim must have woken up today with a huge smile on her face…she’s all over the internet…but everyone is making fun of the pics. To her, any pr is good pr. She has no shame and either does Kanye. I will never be able to eat a glazed donut again…or look at a garbage bag the same way.

    I wonder if the unphotoshopped pics will leak ? Now THAT will break the internet.

  46. snowflake says:

    so funny how she claims she’s tired of people looking down on her because of her sex tape. on her show, i saw an episode where she was sooo upset b/c some magazine published photos that were exposing more than she authorized. she didn’t want to be viewed that way. but now she’s back to posing naked in magazines. so i guess if you can’t get attention by not posing naked, she’ll go back to posing naked. she’s so f*cking fake. at least porn stars and strippers are real are about how they make their money. make up your effing mind, kim. don’t cry and whine about people judging you for your sex tape and posing naked and then go back to doing it when your mommy rebranding isn’t working. she’s all about the money, just be honest about it kim. don’t try to play us.

  47. Twinkle says:

    The photos are completely photoshopped. The waist is obvious even the butt isn’t as comic book big as these cover photos. You look at paparazzi photos of her and see her true proportions: her waist is not that narrow, she has back fat.

    The cover photos make her look even more ridiculous!

  48. Leslie says:

    I wonder if she likes herself even just a tiny bit.

    • iseepinkelefants says:

      I think she loves herself more than we’ll ever know. Yes, she’s had surgery but I don’t think she ever did it because she wasn’t confident. She probably thinks it just makes her even better

      • Josephine says:

        I disagree. I can’t imagine having to be nothing more than an object, and she doesn’t seem to have any friends. I look at her and see sad, sad, sad. She doesn’t even seem to get any joy from being a mom.

  49. kri says:

    I honestly thought that champagne shot was a reference to how she got famous in the first place. In the other pic, her ass looks like a butterflied cronut. This woman is..the Anti-Sophie.

  50. Palermo says:

    Just when you think she can’t sink any lower …

  51. me says:

    If we are supposed to actually believe her waist is really that tiny, why would she need to wear that damn waist trainer thing then? The fact that she knew she’d be ridiculed for these pics and STILL wanted to have them released proves how little shame and dignity she truly has. Anything for attention !

  52. Jbap says:

    I hate to say it, because she is a blight on popular culture, but Kim has won – she’s made her fortune, established her brand, made herself ubiquitous and unavoidable. She isn’t the joke: we are.

      Maybe you’re right. But she’ll never be respected and it that seems something she/Kanye want?… She is business savvy (or has someone near who is – mother?) but there’s not more than that. She is relevant now from a media point of view, people react to her but there will come a day where we won’t even click a link with some news from her because we won’t care at all. If there’s no audience she has no stage.

      • Miffy says:

        She’s the crescendo of the reality tv culture. She’s rich and famous, she’s made a multi-million dollar industry from doing nothing and benefiting absolutely no one. Respect was never a factor in that. She’s accomplished what she set out for and so much more. There will come a day where she’s no longer relevant and I’m sure she’ll be sobbing into her millions over that. Let’s face it, she’s won.

    • Miffy says:

      *standing ovation*

      As gross as her exploitation of herself is, we are the audience who put her there. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never seen her show or bought any of the products that she shills, if you’re reading this article or even this comment you’re part of the audience.

    • van says:

      She “won” because you stupid asses on this site continue run stories on her and talk about her everyday. Instead of dealing with your own lives.

  53. watchmaker says:

    Looks like she’s popping out of a 33 gallon Hefty trash bag…..

  54. J.Mo says:

    I wanna see Anna Wintour’s face when the paps thrust this photo in her face and asks how she likes it compared to Kim & Kanye’s Vogue cover?

  55. anne_000 says:

    It’s too bad they didn’t do something with that brown, unpainted wooden box she’s standing on. Maybe either something fancy or darkened it or photoshop it out.

  56. Skins says:

    Does anybody out there actually think she is hot?

  57. Elle says:

    Grace Jones, the actual icon, did the idea those guys stole, ions ago.

    • ketjo says:

      Grace Jones photo was a composite of many different shots to get the best post and pieced together to form the final resulting photo …It was put out as a composite and never as a real photograph and that is while is was louded so much as a work of photographic are…

  58. iseepinkelefants says:

    I tried to play her game but it sucked. I much prefer Covet which somehow helps alleviate my shopping addiction. And you don’t have to pay for it to advance in the game. It just takes patience.

    I’m sorry but I really don’t like he ass. It’s grossly ginormous. I’d take JLo’s any day. At least hers is natural and proportioned. Kim’s is just not found in nature ugly.

  59. angie says:

    When you put the two cover shots together, it looks like a poster for the new porno: “Breakfast at Tushanys.”

  60. BendyWindy says:

    Chelsea Handler spoofed her Christmas ham tush photo. I hate Chelsea so it pains me to say this, but her ass is far and away nicer than Kim’s. Le sigh.

  61. Longhorn says:

    I guess I’m one of the few people who like the covers. I think they are fun and Kim looks better than ever.

    Although I do appreciate that “glazed donut” comment above . LOL!!!!

    • Erm says:

      As a straight woman, the oily butt and lack of realistic proportion kind of grosses me out, but she’s having fun with it and doesn’t look like she’s desperately trying to look sexy in either picture (which is not to say she doesn’t do that in other pictures).

      I do wish they hadn’t made her waist that small though, it just look cartoonish. I know the champagne photo is a remake of the photographer’s “Champagne Incident” photo… wondering if the other photo is a remake as well.

  62. Angee says:

    Many words come to mind: “why”, “gross”, “needy”, “hurry-make-money-while-some-find-you-relevant-or-important”, “useless”, “worthless”, “meaningless”, “parasite”.

    Oh, there are so many more.

  63. Deb says:

    I think everyone should just ignore Paper’s suggestion that we break the Internet with this image. Pfft….

    I think Marge Simpson did it better with her Red Blazer Realty billboard: http://meblogwritegood.files.wordpress.com/2012/03/screen-shot-2012-03-02-at-12-35-16-pm.png

    What I would give to see the un-photoshopped pics. I do not need to see KK seductively pooping into a trash bag. Ever. Never ever.

  66. Bat says:

    Her whole family’s really dysfunctional, obviously, but all the kids seem to have chosen Acting Stupid and Being Vulgar as their career path. It’s like there’s some virtue in being proud of being inane and gross and totally non-reflective about anything in life. And she does look like she’s taking a poop into that black garbage bag thing.

  67. Anon says:

    Well she just showed the lady bits in a new pic. Everything everything. No imagination left so once a porn star always a porn star.. One can hope that from this point on she will start her decline..there is nothing left to show. Nothing

  68. Chem says:

    Jean Paul Goude?

  69. DIANE says:

    The non-airbrushed shot of her ass must be a nightmare. I can’t believe skin can stretch that much without leaving marks.

  70. Cheryl says:

    Soooooo sic of her big giant fake pudding stuffed ass. Kim get a f ing job and a real life. And for GODS sake let the air out of that thing before it blows!

  71. mollie says:

    Is this what she’s been wearing the waist-training corset to prepare for?
    You can get really weird and crazy temporary re-forming with those.
    I’m not saying it isn’t photo-shopped, but corsets do squish you.

  72. embee says:

    Is she proud to have a ridiculous cartoonish body? She used to be a beautiful girl. Not so hot anymore.

  73. melain says:

    That’s clearly a work of fiction, but it certainly is not a work of art.

  74. mollie says:

    You know what I think is really odd? That if she had a tiny strip of fabric on, like a brazilian thong bikini bottom, nobody would pay attention. It’s just a butt. I don’t get the outrage.
    She’s annoying, but I can’t see anything wrong with an exposed butt. Then again, my mom is an artist so I find nothing wrong with nudity. As far as the champagne photo, that shot has been done before, in the 70’s, and this was just a re-make, so people are going nuts over nothing.

    • Amanda Costa says:

      Its because is about Kim Kardashian. I already noticed that most of people in the world hate her. Quite different here in Brazil, here she has lots of fans, who finds her fancy and elegant. I find her beautiful, but this picture is beyond photoshop….Lol almost magic!

    • Marie-France says:

      I don´t see anything wrong with an exposed butt either. And I like Jean-Paul Goude a lot. But (t) to celebrate and make so much fuzz over a plastic ass is ridiculous. Kim´s ass is not special at all to me since it is Mattel material. There are a lot of women with natural booties and that is something to make art of. What is natural is special, otherwise it just feels like an ad for a product. I think that Kanye loves J-P Goude. Amber Rose also did a remake of one of his Grace Jones photos. That one was really nice, though.

  75. Vera says:

    Wondering what her next move will be to top this.

  76. ava says:

    This is just sad. Can we “break the internet” with a woman that my 6 year old daughter can look up to? A women who is smart, brave, caring, gives to others and is beautiful. But if she has the first four things that woman would be beautiful in my book. This is not beautiful to me regardless of her size or shape.

  77. muchdungo says:

    Gross disgusting pissed on trash is all she is and ever will be.

  78. Amanda Costa says:

    Damn. I find her body really sexy,but this picture cant be real. First, if you compare her other pictures, her waist looks larger than that, she has a thin waist though. Just wanted know if she doesnt bother by seeing a body in this magazine that is not her own body. Cause i would mind if I saw myself ” ruined” with photoshop. This woman is kind of obsessed with her own looks.

  79. TOPgirl says:

    I honestly find these photos of her disgusting! I don’ t know the exact words to describe my disgust but I’ll try. I feel ashamed for her in that she is a mom willing to let the world see her this way with no regard of any future repercussions. She represents all that is not honorable and pure about the essence of a woman. Just her role alone in our modern society is a display of one or two of the seven deadly sins.
    She has morphed into a poor example of a woman but has profited greatly from it. I do not judge her by her body but her actions. That alone is enough.
