Photographer Mert Alas also posted the photo on his Instagram with the caption: “NIGHT BIRD ?one of the page from our new book with @kimkardashian⭐️ book out on SEPTEMBER 7th”. Though it sounds like the photographers collaborated with Kardashian on the whole book, that is not the case, writes Cosmopolitan.

Cosmo writes that Kardashian posting the photo may be a response to recent quotes by The Talk host Sharon Osbourne, who said that though Kim says she’s doing everything in the name of feminism, what she’s doing is not feminism.

“Those girls live off their bodies, half of L.A. has been through them and everything they do from the sex tape to the plastic see-through dresses and the gym wear is about sex, not female progress. And listen: God bless them,” Osbourne said, according to Cosmo. “If Kim wants to show off her body, fine. But that’s not feminism, that’s being a ho. And there’s nothing wrong with being a ho, but always remember what you are.”
