Kim Kardashian claims she 'almost invented' selfies before they became 'cool'

Washington: Kim Kardashian has suggested that might have invented selfies way before they became famous, as she had been clicking her own pictures since she was just 4.

The 34-year-old curvy beauty, who has her own 'Selfish' book, which shows her snaps she had taken in the year George Orwell made famous, says in the book "I took pictures of myself with digital camera s when I was in junior high and high school, and I just got hooked."

She was "always obsessed with selfies," she added.

It is believed that book, which is due for a May 2015 launch, was her rapper hubby Kanye West's idea and it was his creative team that came up with the look.
