Kim Kardashian thanks her 27m followers with butt selfie

WHAT better way for reality star Kim Kardashian to celebrate reaching 27 million followers on Instagram than with a bum selfie?

The buxom beauty uploaded a racy picture this moing to mark the milestone, thanking her massive fanbase for their support.

The happy snap, in which Kardashian posed on a bed in a red-lined leopard print lingerie set, leaves little to the imagination.

But followers of the selfie-lover’s picture feed would be used to it by now.

And they clearly loved it, with more than 547,000 likes and 45,000 comments on the booty image in just three hours.
