St Kilda cheer squad makes Kim Kardashian joke on banner v North Melbourne

KIM Kardashian made a surprise appearance as the punchline on the St Kilda banner for tonight’s clash against North Melbourne.

IT’S not like Kim Kardashian needs any extra publicity.

The reality star and mega celebrity has made appearances in a lot of places, but this could be the first time she appeared in an AFL stadium — even if it was in the form of letters sticky-taped on to a crepe paper banner.

The St Kilda cheer squad used Kardashian as the punchline for their pre-match run-through at Etihad Stadium.

The Bulldogs upped the ante for banner slogans by employing comedian Danny McGinlay and now other clubs are rising to the challenge.

Kardashian and megastar husband Kanye West have two children — daughter North born in 2013 and son Saint, who arrived two years later.

We’re not sure how Kardashian’s agent would explain what’s going on in this photo, but the banner was big winner on Twitter — for most fans, anyway.
