Retail assistant Mike Amess has admitted that he has a crippling fear of Kim Kardashian and her family.
"Just hearing the sound of the Kardashians' nasal voices or catching a glimpse of them on screen makes me feel nauseous and shaky," he said. "My hands get clammy, my breathing gets heavier and I start sweating.
"Sometimes, I get teary and want to retch," the 24-year-old said.
Mike revealed that his phobia dates back to watching Kim Kardashian's infamous sex tape, which reduced him to tears and "left him terrified".
He explained: "I was raised Catholic and growing up, I tried to repress my sexuality and deny that I was gay. Loads of the boys at school were going on about how good Kim Kardashian's sex tape was. I thought I'd give it a watch in the hope it would turn me on."
He said that her "huge bum and the sound of her horrible high-pitched wailing" left him feeling "repulsed".
