If there’s one thing you can say with certainty about Kim Kardashian, it’s that she's fully aware of what sells for her and she isn’t afraid to a) make fun of it and b) capitalise on it.
Kim’s selfie obsession was documented on Keeping Up With The Kardashians recently, when she told her sisters she was taking a series of selfies for Kanye while on holiday in Thailand. Then, she decided it would be a cool idea to make them into a book! We thought this was also just for Kanye’s eyes only, but actually she’s going share it with the international selfie-loving community.
Now there's a 352-page book on the way called Selfish and yes, every page is a picture of Kim’s face. The title is literally genius and whoever thought of it should get a raise, or at least some kind of bonus.
The book will be published by Rizzoli, a company known for producing really beautiful coffee table books and the company has the following to say about the book:
‘Widely regarded as a trailblazer of the “selfie movement” – a modern-day self-portrait of the digital age – Kim has mastered the art of taking flattering and highly personal photos of oneself. For the first time in print, this book presents some of Kim’s favorite selfies in one volume – from her favourite throwback images to current ultra-sexy glam shots—and provides readers with a behind-the-scenes look into this larger-than-life star.’
Selfish will cost just $20. It’s due for release in 2015, although based on the rate Kim takes selfies, she could probably get her editor all 352 unique shots in just a couple of months.
Kim’s iPhone game Kim Kardashian: Hollywood has been raking in the cash since its release, and is expected to generate revenue of $200 million by the end of the year. The game makes fun of being famous for no reason, and includes voiceovers from Kim herself.
