The Kardashian-Jenner family get a lot of flack from a lot of haters, with many shunning the famous clan and dubbing them unworthy of their celebrity title
However, Kim Kardashian has found a fan in 70-year-old acting legend Helen Mirren, who admires the mum-of-two for promoting body confidence.

Yes, you tell ‘em, Helen.
Speaking in a new interview, Helen admitted that she isn’t exactly a fan of Kim and co., but she can appreciate what they do and the body confidence that they promote.
The star explained: “I’m not into the Kardashians, it’s a phenomenon I just don’t find interesting, but - and this is the big word: B-U-T-T - it’s wonderful that you’re allowed to have a butt nowadays!

"Thanks to Madame Kardashian, and before her, J-Lo. We’re also allowed to have thighs now, which is great too. It’s very positive.
"When I was growing up, it was thought to be unbelievably sluttish to even have a bra strap showing. Everything was about women conforming. I love shameless women. Shameless and proud!”
Helen went on to add: “Women were controlled by being shamed, so I love women who have claimed their own bodies: Madonna, Chrissie Hynde, Joan Jett, Bonnie Raitt. I love Pussy Riot more than anything in the world.

"They all raise their middle fingers to this epithet of 'sl*t’ They wear what they want to wear, behave as they want to behave.”
We couldn’t agree more with Helen’s words, #GirlPower.
