Is Kim Kardashian’s Butt Real? See Transformation in Photos
Her body’s too bootylicious for ya babe! Reality TV queen Kim Kardashian’s world-famous butt is so curvaceous, fans are often left wondering if the glorious behind is all hers.
In 2014, it was well-documented that the Keeping Up With the Kardashian star broke the internet with her (literally) butt-naked display for Paper magazine and has been a global inspiration for bum implants and glute-focused gym routines since. No one’s butt has been a subject of lunch break gossip quite like Kim K’s.

Remember the days when Kim was Paris Hilton’s assistant and did her own eyebrows? Oh, and her butt was actually a regular size. Yeah, we miss 2006 Kimmy K, too …

Rocking a Skirt in 2014
This is Kim’s butt stopping traffic. Even Pippa Middleton is a fan of Kim’s modest booty.
“No year is complete without a bottom story, and the ‘Rear of 2014’ award undoubtedly goes to Kim Kardashian, after her posterior exploded all over the internet … We can’t even,” Pippa said at the time.

Spandex for Days
“I’m seeing all these nonsense tabloids claiming I have butt implants-injections. Get a life! Using pics of me 15 pounds skinnier (before I had my baby) comparing to me now! I still have weight to lose,” the KKW Beauty founder tweeted after giving birth to daughter North with ex-husband Kanye West. “Anyone who has had a baby knows how hard it is to lose weight (especially the last bit of weight) & your body totally changes!”

She added, “Making fun of me pregnant & making fun of me trying to lose weight now — shame on you. I’m not perfect but I will never conform to your skinny standards sorry! Not me. And BTW I’ve lost a lot so far & I’m proud of that! Don’t give young girls a complex!”

Crimson Beauty
While the Selfish author finally admitted to getting butt injections in August 2016, there was a major catch. Kim explained during a livestream on her official app that she gets injections in her bottom solely to help alleviate psoriasis symptoms.
“I went to go get a cortisone shot in my butt,” she said, recounting her first injection appointment. “I lived right behind Kitson [a now-closed boutique in Los Angeles near Cedars-Sinai Hospital]. One of my neighbors was a dermatologist at Cedars. I go in there and he’s like, ‘There’s a one in a billion chance that you will get a huge indent in your butt.’ Of course, I get a huge indent on my butt.”

Kim Looking Casual
According to Kim, she believes the dent in her derriere became the catalyst for those incessant butt implant rumors. “There is a picture of me in Miami wearing an electric blue dress, and another picture of me walking down Robertson [Boulevard],” she continued. “You see the indent. And I think that’s when the rumors started: ‘She’s had implants.’”

2015
This is Kim’s butt … or maybe it’s just couch cushions. We can’t tell. The KUWTK star was the surprise presenter at the 2015 Brit Awards and made sure all attention was on her mahoosive curves. Slay.

Show-Stopper
Years earlier, Kim even got her booty X-rayed on a 2011 episode of Keeping Up With the Kardashians in an attempt to prove that she is indeed au naturel. “See, it’s REAL!!!” sister Khloé Kardashian tweeted not long after the episode aired.

A pregnant Kim K is hardly the ‘shy and retiring’ type as she flaunts both bumps on social media and makes us spit our soy vanilla latte in the process. You go, gurl!

Rise and grind! This is Kim’s booty in 2018 and TBH, it looks smaller than the 2015 glory days. Maybe, she’s trying to tone down (or up!) her look.

Peek-a-Boo
Kim had a wardrobe malfunction ahead of giving a speech at the iConnections’ Global Alts Conference, which was documented and shown on the October 5, 2023, episode of The Kardashians. Her skin-tight black latex pants completely split open, exposing her bare derriere.
The entrepreneur showed video of the incident via her phone and said in her confessional, “My whole butt is out!” She went on to explain how she saved the day by throwing on a long jacket to cover her open backside and continued on with the event, revealing, “I was just dying inside sitting up on stage with a breeze, like, in my ass.”
