Kim Kardashian West will receive the first ever Break the Internet accolade at the upcoming Webby Awards.
The 35-year-old reality star - who has 69.6 million Instagram followers, 45 million Twitter followers, and a hugely successful mobile game, 'Kim Kardashians: Hollywood' - will be the first-ever recipient of the accolade at the annual Webby Awards on May 16 in recognition of her "bold and creative" use of online platforms.
Announcing the honour, Webby organisers said: "[The award is given] in recognition of her unprecedented success online and the bold and creative ways she has used the Internet, social media, apps and video to connect with a truly global audience."
Kim - who has children North, two, and Saint, five months, with husband Kanye West - is expected to receive her Webb from tech legend and Re/code founder Kara Swisher.
The 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' star joins her husband in being recognised at the awards, which have previously been described as the "Oscars of the Internet".
