So we decided to try.
How to catch champagne with your butt like Kim K in seven easy steps:
1. Buy the cheapest champagne you can find (because you won't be drinking any).
2. Rip a hole in a black trash bag and stick your head through it.
3. Tape a champagne glass to your butt.
4. If you have long hair, put it up in a bun on the top of your head.
5. Make sure to smile at the camera like you're having the time of your life.
6. Pop a bottle of bubbly.
7. Throw it over your head and, hopefully, onto your butt.
Follow these steps and you too can have an awesome photo shoot like Kim!
Julia's thoughts: "Being Kim Kardashian momentarily gave me a sense of the alternate rules of physics that occur around her. I have to abide by regular physics, which is a shame because now my hair still smells like cheap champagne and I know for a fact I can't wear a trash bag instead of clothing."
Matt's thoughts: "It made me feel really sexy but also like garbage because I was wearing a trash bag. Love you, Kim!"
Emmy's thoughts: "I just felt so free. And cold. Living your life without being barefoot in a puddle of champagne at least once is a sad existence."
Taylor's thoughts: "I tried to make an arc with the champagne like in the photo, and instead sprayed myself in the face. #elegance"
Tanner's thoughts: "This is the closest I've ever felt to being like Kim Kardashian, aside from that time my sex tape with Ray J leaked."
Joanna's thoughts: "There's no greater feeling than spilling champagne on yourself and the ground."
Tommy's thoughts: "It's not easy to make a trash bag dress look good while being doused in champagne, but damn it, I did it! I think Kim would be proud."
Whitney's thoughts: "No one ever tells you this as a kid but champagne really hurts when it gets into your eyes! I learned today that garbage bags are not chic, whereas Kim Kardashian's butt totally is."
Dave's thoughts: "There is one Kim Kardashian. That is me. I am the new Kim Kardashian. Any and all that say they are Kim Kardashian are wrong. They are frauds. They are impostors. I am Kim."
Our consensus: Kim's champagne trick is nearly impossible for the average person to pull off.
