An Israeli ultra-Orthodox Jewish news website has cut Kim Kardashian — one of the world's most photographed women — from a photo taken of her in Jerusalem this week.
The original photo of Kardashian, her husband Kanye West and Jerusalem's Mayor Nir Barkat was altered to put Kardashian behind a restaurant receipt. Kardashian was blurred in another.
Nissim Ben Haim, an editor at the Kikar HaShabbat website, said Wednesday they removed Kardashian because she is a "****ographic symbol" who contradicts ultra-Orthodox values.
And yet they show Kanye despite the fact that he has raps highly explicit lyrics.

QUEEN of being photoshopped.
Slay at her being a **** symbol but the man next to her getting away with it despite singing about Gold diggers.
There was a similar mishap where another ultra-orthodox newspaper (unsure if it was the same one) removed Hillary Clinton from the Situation Room photo (death of Osama Bin Laden). They also photoshopped women out of a picture from the Charlie Hebdo march. Very sad, really.
