Kim Kardashian Joins Snapchat Amid Nude Photo Backlash

Of course she did!
Kim Kardashian has been dominating headlines the past several days after posting a nude photo and getting tons of backlash for it, so it was the perfect time for her to announce she's joining Snapchat! The reality star posted a screenshot last night of herself and sister Kourtney with the caption, "My very 1st snap." We smell a paid endorsement deal!
In case you missed it, Kimmy K has been in a very public war of words with celebrities like Bette Midler and Piers Morgan over their apparent slut shaming of her, but one person who is totally in her corner is husband Kanye West. In fact, even though Yeezy is in Paris, the rapper still gave a shout out to his baby mama by posting another nudie of her and calling her his muse! "Can’t wait to get home to North, Saint and my wife…" he wrote. Aww!
Pink, on the other hand, is jumping into the ring to deliver a very subtle diss at the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star.
"Shout out to all of the women, across the world, using their brains, their strength, their work ethic, their talent, their ‘magic' that they were born with, that only they possess. It may not ever bring you as much ‘attention' or bank notes as using your body, your sex, your tits and asses, but women like you don't need that kind of ‘attention.' In the quiet moments, you will feel something deeper than the fleeting excitement resulting from attention, you will feel something called pride and self respect. Keep on resisting the urge to cave. You'll never have to make silly excuses for yourself," she wrote under the guise of International Women's Day.
The E! starlet took to her blog yesterday afternoon to speak out, and while we think she has a valid point, she certainly doesn't need to write an essay about it!
- "Hey, guys. I wanted to write a post elaborating on my tweets last night. In all seriousness, I never understand why people get so bothered by what other people choose to do with their lives. I don't do drugs, I hardly drink, I've never committed a crime—and yet I'm a bad role model for being proud of my body? It always seems to come back around to my sex tape. Yes, a sex tape that was made 13 years ago. 13 YEARS AGO. Literally that lonnng ago. And people still want to talk about it?!?! I lived through the embarrassment and fear, and decided to say who cares, do better, move on. I shouldn't have to constantly be on the defense, listing off my accomplishments just to prove that I am more than something that happened 13 years ago. Let's move on, already. I have. I am empowered by my body. I am empowered by my sexuality. I am empowered by feeling comfortable in my skin. I am empowered by showing the world my flaws and not being afraid of what anyone is going to say about me. And I hope that through this platform I have been given, I can encourage the same empowerment for girls and women all over the world. I am empowered by my husband, who is so accepting and supportive and who has given me a newfound confidence in myself. He allows me to be me and loves me unconditionally. I feel so lucky to have grown up surrounded by strong, driven, independent women. The life lessons I've learned from my sisters, my mother and my grandmother, I will pass along to my daughter. I want her to be proud of who she is. I want her to be comfortable in her body. I don't want her to grow up in a world where she is made to feel less-than for embracing everything it means to be a woman. It's 2016. The body-shaming and slut-shaming—it's like, enough is enough. I will not live my life dictated by the issues you have with my sexuality. You be you and let me be me. I am a mother. I am a wife, a sister, a daughter, an entrepreneur and I am allowed to be sexy. #happyinternationalwomensday," she wrote.
She doesn't seem too concerned about all this, because we caught her going about her daily grind on the way to the gym this morning...
