Posted by

If there is anything that we all can agree on when it comes to the Keeping Up with the Kardashians Reality TV star is that she is very famous. We may argue about how she became famous, but it does not take away from the fact that she is known in homes far and wide; and she has a derriere that could cause an eclipse.

So it should have come to no one’s surprise when the wife of Kanye West promised that she would break the internet.

Dressed in nothing but Mikimoto pearls, and a dress caressed around her most valuable assets, Kim Kardashian outdid herself and set new boundaries for those that have followed in her footsteps to be a famous reality star. There was also a second cover in which Kim was wearing the same pearls and the dress was now actually being worn on her body but her posterior gave a new meaning to the concept of bottoms up as she popped the cork to her bottle of champagne. read more
