The Kim Kardashian picture you have to see to believe

THE reality star poses on the cover of the latest issue of a New York fashion mag — but there’s not much fashion in sight. WARNING: EXPLICIT PICTURE

THIS is just what the world needs — another picture of Kim Kardashian’s butt.

New York fashion magazine Paper has put the reality TV star on the cover of its latest issue, unveiled today. They’ve called the Kardashian feature ‘Break the Internet’, and based on the snap they’ve chosen for the cover, it’s not hard to see why:

“For our winter issue, we gave ourselves one assignment: Break The Internet. There is no other person that we can think of who is up to the task than one Kim Kardashian West,” Papermag writes of the cover, which was shot by legendary French photographer Jean-Paul GoudeIt.

“A pop culture fascination able to generate headlines just by leaving her house, Kim is what makes the web tick.”

In another shot from the magazine, Kim pays homage to Goudelt’s iconic ‘Champagne Incident’ photograph:

Kim posted this shot to her Instagram account.

Kim herself had this to say about the daring new shoot:

And they say I didn't have a talent...try balancing a champagne glass on your ass LOL #BreakTheInternet #PaperMagazine

They’re stunning shots, but they’ve left us with one question: how long until Kim’s butt goes rogue and lands a magazine cover of its very own?
