Illustrator Isaiah Stephens created an collection of images where Disney princesses mimic Kim Kardashian selfies. Stephens was inspired to create the collection when the reality television star released her book called 'Selfish.' The book is a complete collection of photographs taken of Kim Kardashian, by Kim Kardashian.
These self-taken portraits of Kim Kardashian are recreated by Stephens through the use of placing well-known Disney princesses in the same scenes and poses. Each image created by Stephens uses a different princess to recreate scene. For example, an image of Kim posing in a bathing suit was recreated using Disney princess Ariel, the Little Mermaid.
The humorous images that mimic Kim Kardashian are a tribute the celebrity's fame and unofficial title as the "queen of selfies."
