Kim Kardashian West took 6,000 selfies in four days

Kim Kardashian West took 6,000 selfies on her holiday in Mexico.

The 35-year-old television personality was never without her phone during her four-day holiday in the resort of Punta Mita last month, and she has now revealed that she used the device to take a staggering 1,500 snaps of herself every day.

The mum-of-two – whose daughter North, three, and nine-month-old son Saint joined her on her trip – made the announcement of her excessive picture taking on her half-sister Kendall Jenner’s app KendallJ.com in a post called: "Kim-Digits: The Breakdown of My Mexico Vacation."

The ‘Keeping Up With the Kardashians’ star – who is married to Kanye West – also revealed that she wore nine different bikinis on her holiday, but didn’t spend much time in the sun as she was "busy doing photo shoots" or it was "overcast".

She did, however, reveal that she managed to spend four hours on the beach with her two children and drank 10 watermelon smoothies with her daughter.

The staggering selfie statistic comes after Kim’s husband recently admitted that he has got rid of his phone as it hinders his creativity.

Kanye, 39, tweeted: "I got rid of my phone so I can have air to create."

The brunette beauty’s trip to Mexico with her children also comes after she recently admitted she would like them to grow up to be forensic investigators so that she can "live vicariously" through them.

She said: "I’m gonna be that annoying, pushy mom and say I want to live vicariously through my daughter or son and have them be a forensic investigator."

"I would love to be a forensic investigator and live a normal life."
