Why Kim Kardashian says she'd never take another selfie ... apparently they're 'over'

Kim Kardashian West thinks selfies are over.

The 36-year-old Keeping Up With the Kardashians star - who released a book of selfies called Selfish, endorsed a selfie phone case and even gave masterclasses on how to take the perfect selfie - claimed the photo trend was a "few years ago" now.

While playing a game of 'Would You Rather...' with her sister Khloe, the reality TV star was asked the tough question whether she would rather never be able to post a selfie or never use Snapchat again?

In a clip posted on the Keeping Up With the Kardashians official Twitter account, Kim replied: "I would rather never be able to post a selfie again. Yeah. I kinda feel like, I dunno, selfies are kind of a few years ago."

In recent months Kim has in fact been sharing fewer selfies than she used to it seems even she isn't quite done with the trend.

Despite saying she would never take another selfie, it Kim can't shake her old ways with her latest post on Instagram being a selfie video:

The blonde beauty - who had millions of dollars worth of jewellery stolen in a terrifying robbery in Paris, France, a year ago - also opted for losing a diamond in the ocean over a vampire facial, which involves extracting blood from the arm in order to remove the plasma and splatter it onto her face.

In her answer she said: "I don't really care so much about diamonds anymore."

In the latest episode of the TV series, Kim - who has children North, four, and Saint, 22 months, with husband Kanye West - spoke about the body shamers and hate she receives when she posts a new picture on her social media accounts.

She said: "When will they stop with this story? You definitely get a thick skin once you have been through it a lot, but pictures just keep coming up every day and they just won't let it go.

"I know I can handle anything and everything, and if I can't handle it... who can?

"I just am in the house so much that I get so freaked out if anyone like, looks at me. It's a full phobia - I freak out about everything.

"Why do I subject myself to being seen? Why don't I just stay at home?"
