The reality TV star recently opened up about her 'Break the Internet' photo spread, calling her nude snaps "an art project."
After receiving some praise, and a lot of criticism, for deciding to pose completely nude in the winter issue of Paper magazine, released last week, Kim Kardashian has finally opened up about the inspiration behind the risqué photo-shoot.

While Kim was a guest of honour on Australian TV show 'The Project,' she addressed her many critics who slam her for setting a poor example to younger fans, and even attempted to teach the show's host, Rove McManus, how to balance a champagne glass on his behind.

"I was so honored and excited to work with (photographer Jean-Paul Goude) because he is a legend, and for me that was something I wanted to do to make myself feel confident," she said during an appearance Tuesday (Nov 17th) on the Aussi show.

"I'm never one to preach, but I felt really positive and really good about myself. I love the photos, I did it for me, I hope other people like them," she added.
