Kim teased the shoot a few days earlier on Snapchat with a racy photo that's similar to the one above.
Okay, Kim we get it!
You look great and we all want to hire Melissa as our trainer! But I totally don't get what these photos are for and why she's in a basic AF bedroom.
Judging by those tagged in this shoot, these aren't basic Polaroids during a raunchy weekend in a motel.
Before we get into the shoot, a couple things got the internet upset over these photos...and it wasn't because of lack of clothing.
Some felt by Kim saying the braids were paying homage to 70's actress Bo Derek is incorrect. Critics say these are actually cornrows and that hairstyle has been around for YEARS before Derek debuted them in the 70's film 10.
Actually, back in 2015 Derek came to the rescue to fellow KarJenner sister, Kylie, who sported cornrows and was accused of cultural-appropriation. To that, Derek claimed it was stupid and it's just a hairdo. But is it though!?
Others say these are in fact, African braids called Fulani braids.
The hairstyle has been popular among Fulani people in West Africa and East Africa for centuries.
If that wasn't enough, when Perez Hilton posted a photo of Kim's selfie donning the braids, Lindsay Lohan claimed her look was confusing, to which KKW clapped back.....hard by commenting, "you know whats confusing...your sudden foreign accent."
The internet and even Perez DIED at the exchange.
Peep the other photos Kim bombarded us with on Instagram on Monday afternoon. I can't hate, her body does look amazing....but the poses and what-not.....make me....uncomfortable. Maybe it will all make sense once we see the shoot.
Meanwhile, in Berlin...
