Kim Kardashian Confirms 'Champagne Shot' For Paper Mag Not Photoshopped, Pose ‘Not Comfortable,’ She Says

Aside from her naked bottom photo for Paper magazine, Kim Kardashian also recreated the famous "champagne shot" by photographer Jean-Paul Goude. Few criticised her photo and claimed the glass was Photoshopped to make it look perfectly balanced on her famous asset. However, during an appearance in an Australian TV show, Kim confirmed the balancing was all hers and that no trickery was done to the photo.

Kim Kardashian recently appeared on the Australian talk show "The Project" last Tuesday, November 18. According to Daily Mail the "Keeping Up With The Kardashians" star even shared how she managed to balance the champagne glass in one of her photos for Paper mag. The reality star reportedly even taught popular personality Rove McManus how to achieve the perfect position to achieve the risqué shot.

The coaching session was supposedly triggered when Rove questioned Kim about her recreation of the famous "champagne shot." Bringing up speculations of Photoshop, he curiously asked if the 34-year-old did indeed perform the task.

"Can you actually balance a champagne glass on your derriere or is it all photoshopped," Rove McManus asked.

Kim Kardashian confirmed that no trickery was used to make the glass sit perfectly balanced on her shapely bottom. She even recalled "her back hurt for about a week after that shoot."

"Photographer Jean-Paule Goude has an art of posing you and it was definitely not comfortable," Kim replied.

However, seemingly unconvinced Rove reportedly brought out a pair of champagne glass. Then he politely challenged Kim Kardashian to teach him how to do the balancing, to which she obliged.

Aside from her "champagne shot" Kim Kardashian's nude bottom photo and frontal nude cover for Paper mag also received criticisms. According to the International Business Times, doctors even scrutinised her photos to know if she had plastic surgery to achieve her shapely bottom. The reality star supposedly had fat transfer procedure done on her butt. However, despite all the criticisms Kim admitted her decision to pose nude was planned ahead of time. She recalled on the show that she was eight months pregnant with North West when she had told her sisters of "doing a nude shoot" once she gets her body back.
