​Kim Kardashian: Why I cropped North West from photo

Kim Kardashian fans were up in arms on Monday after the reality star posted a photo on Twitter and Instagram in which she cropped out her daughter, North West.

Even Kardashian seemed surprised that her photo-crop move garnered so much attention.

Following the uproar, Kardashian, 34, took to Twitter to explain why she nixed little North from the pic:

Kardashian is a big fan of photographs, particularly selfies -- and is even gearing up to publish a book of her own selfies next April.

Kardashian and Kanye West welcomed North in June 2013.
