If West needs any inspiration as to how one successfully runs an Instagram page without consideration for others’ opinions, he should look no further than to his wife, Kim Kardashian, who is one of the most followed users on the social media app, boasting 63.7 million followers.

“I am empowered by my body. I am empowered by my sexuality. I am empowered by feeling comfortable in my skin. I am empowered by showing the world my flaws and not being afraid of what anyone is going to say about me,” the E! personality shared on her website. “And I hope that through this platform I have been given, I can encourage the same empowerment for girls and women all over the world.”
