Reality star Kim Kardashian, who recently claimed to regret posing naked for Playboy, decided to take off her clothes again and posed completely nude while covered with a thin layer of silver paint for the upcoming third annual “The Art Issue” edition of W Magazine (November 2010).

Kim, what the heck were you thinking? Yeah, Kim has a curvylicious body, but those pictures taken by Mark Seliger aren’t exactly the most flattering (slightly NSFW pictures below). Her booty looks ginormous and completely disproportionate to her body. Oh, wait… it is!

Here are some highlights from Kim Kardashian’s W interview:

On getting into the reality TV business: “People would come over and say, ‘Where are the cameras?’ Everyone always said that it was like a sitcom at our house! We also knew that while we had the glitz and glam for an audience to vicariously live through, we are such a normal family that everyone can relate to.”

On her public perception: “I’m not a drinker, and when I’m up on the table dancing, it’s for the picture. Then I sit right back down. I play into the perception of me, but it’s not really me. And the show reveals that.

On what ‘Keeping Up With The Kardashians’ has done for her self-confidence: “I used to think, I have to be this or that or skinny, and now, because of the show, everyone is embracing just me, which has given me such a confidence. Now, I’m like, Why did I ever give that feeling the time of day? I’m so mature now. I’m a grown-up version of myself.”

On tabloid rumors: “I’ve learned to ignore everything. In the beginning I thought I was too sensitive for this. I’d Google myself and it would freak me out. Now I could care less if they say I’m pregnant with twins by my brother.”

On her wedding to Damon Thomas: “For my wedding, I wore black leather pants, a black leather top, and Prada wedges. No Flowers. And no family. It was so bizarre. I was a different person then—as I said, I always wanted to be a housewife, and I wanted to have kids at a young age. I was insecure and dependent, really the opposite of who I am today.”
