Kim Kardashian definitely could not have done the nude photos without the support of her husband Kanye West, and now she's revealing that he was the one who actually encouraged her when she started second-guessing her decision to do the photos for Paper Magazine.
According to Contact Music, Kim bounced back and forth between thinking it was a good idea or a bad idea.
''At first I thought it was a good idea, then I freaked and then I loved it, so I had all these emotions going around it,” she explained.

It was at the point of her freaking out that Kanye encouraged her about the shoot.
"He taught me to like - what do you really believe? Forget about what anyone else is really thinking, and if you love it that's what's important,” she explained.
Kim has also emphasized that she felt the need to do the photo shoot for her own confidence. In an interview with Perth's 92.9FM, she said that her pregnancy made her feel that she wanted to show off her body after losing the weight.

''I don't do anything with the intention to promote anyone else doing it, that's not even what I'm trying to do. I do it because I'm proud of it and it empowered me to feel good about myself after I had gained 500 pounds and looked like a huge slob for so long,” she explained.
Feeling awful about her body image, she vowed to pose naked once she got back into shape.
''I had a really bad pregnancy and I gained a lot of weight and I did not feel good about myself ...” she added. “I said, 'Guys, just wait until I have this baby, as soon as I get my body back and I feel good about myself, I'm going to do some naked shoot so just be ready.'''
Although she was definitely ready, it's probably safe to say that no one else was…
