13 Times Kim Kardashian Resembled An Emoji

by Jamie Primeau

I'm about to make a bit of a bold statement, but hear me out: Emojis are the hieroglyphics of our generation. Seriously, they're their own form of communication! Years from now, future humans probably won't understand the fascination with the sassy girl emoji or that little smiling poop. But regardless, people take these cartoon symbols very seriously. (Just ask those who fought relentlessly for the Taco Emoji.) Another fan of emojis, apparently? None other than one very famous reality star. On Saturday night, Kim Kardashian shared a series of selfies with her nephew Mason Disick that at first glance, appear like they're just making funny faces. But if you read the captions, it's clear the relatives were trying to replicate all of the little smiley face emojis — ranging from happy to serious to silly.

Although Mason's parents are reportedly going through a rough patch (news of Kourtney Kardashian and Scott Disick's split broke last week), it's great to see the 5-year-old having fun with his Auntie Kimmy. It's a nice way to take his mind off things, and as soon as I saw Kim's Instagram, it got me thinking. Not only is Kim Kardashian the Queen of the Selfie (a title she earned when she published an entire book of self-photographs), but she's also an emoji queen — worthy of a little cartoon crown. Don't believe me? Here's a look back at all the times that Kim Kardashian looked like a real-life emoji, starting with her recent Mason photo shoot.

1. Unhappy Face Emoji

What's the technical name for this emoji? Honestly, I don't know. But it looks like this:

2. Tongue-Out Emoji

As any emoji expert knows, there are multiple emojis that stick their tongues out. The above image is supposed to be the happy one.

3. Kissing Emoji

This Kimye smooch resembles a certain romantic emoji...

4. Jungle Cat Emoji

OK, so I don't know if she was going for a tiger or a leopard, but according to the caption, she resembles this emoji.

5. Side-Eye Emoji

We all know *that* look.

6. Tongue-Out, Winking Emoji

The resemblance is uncanny.

7. Bride Emoji

Mrs. Kardashian-West looks just like the wedding veil emoji.

8. Mouse Emoji

Not just any mouse... Minnie Mouse.

9. Twinning Emoji

They're standing the wrong way and missing the bunny ears, but you get the idea.

10. Red Dress Emoji

That infamous red dress, dancing emoji.

11. Kissy Face Emoji

Kim is a big fan of this pose.

12. American Flag Emoji

So patriotic!

13. Couple Emoji

If only the emojis were as well-dressed.

So there you have it — Kim Kardashian is a real-life emoji! My apologies if now any time you look at a Kim K. selfie, you can't un-see the resemblance.
