Kim Kardashian’s Naked Selfie, Kanye West’s TLOP Win Big At Webby Awards

KIM HONORED WITH WEBBY AWARD FOR SHOWING US THE GOODS; KANYE FOR RELEASING TLOP

(AllHipHop News) Kim Kardashian has vowed never to stop stripping off for selfies.

The 35-year-old reality star picked up the first-ever Break the Internet gong at the Webby Awards in New York on Monday night.

Mother-of-two Kim looked stunning in a black Vivienne Westwood dress as she arrived at Cipriani Wall Street for the ceremony, which has previously been labeled the Oscars of the Internet.

As she took to the stage to accept her award, Kim complied with the organization’s five word acceptance speech limit, choosing to say, “Nude selfies until I die!’ to cheers from the audience.

Kim has courted controversy with several seductive snaps she has posted for fans, with one that she shared in back in March showing her completely naked, with just two black censor strips protecting her modesty.

Kim was slammed by many, including Bette Midler, Chloe Grace Moretz and Piers Morgan, for the picture, while others praised her for her confidence in sharing the shot.

Regardless of the nature of the response, Kim’s pictures always garner attention from her followers – of which she has over 70 million on Instagram and 45 million on Twitter.

She also has a hugely popular mobile game entitled Kim Kardashian’s Hollywood.

Kim’s gong was given to her “in recognition of her unprecedented success online and the bold and creative ways she has used the Internet, social media, apps and video to connect with a truly global audience”, Webby organizers stated.

Kim’s husband Kanye West was also honored at the ceremony, picking up the Artist of the Year award following the release of his new album The Life of Pablo.

Rapper Kanye is famous for his long and rambling acceptance speeches, but he also stuck to the rules as he picked up his gong, choosing “I can’t stand short speeches” as his five words.

Other winners included Jessica Alba, who took home the Entrepreneur of the Year award for her work with The Honest Company, as well as Lena Dunham.

She accepted the New Founders of the Year award alongside Girls writer Jenni Konner for their Lenny Letter newsletter, and the pair chose “Is Drake in the house?” as their five words.

Late night chat show host Jimmy Fallon had pre-taped his acceptance speech for Best Social Content and Marketing, saying: “Kim, Kourtney, Kylie, Khloe, Kendall”.
