She might have been made famous for her own derrière, but Pippa Middleton thinks Kim Kardashian should take out the 'Rear of Year' award for 2014.

The 31-year-old younger sister of Kate Middleton, who garnered worldwide attention for her pert posterior at the Royal Wedding in 2011, admits that the 34-year-old Kim has a better booty than her.

Pippa penned an article in The Spectator's Christmas Special, commenting on Kim's naked Paper magazine cover, which caused an internet frenzy.

"No year is complete without a bottom story and the 'Rear of 2014' award undoubtedly goes to Kim Kardashian, after her posterior exploded all over the internet last month."

"I must say that mine — though it has enjoyed fleeting fame — is not comparable."

However, the royal-in-law also went on to question the reality star's motives behind the racy shoot and the 'American booty culture'.

"But the Kim butt story did make me pause," she wrote.

"What is it with this American booty culture? It seems to me to be a form of obsession.

"Kim’s aim, apparently, was to break the internet, but I’m not sure she’s going the right way about it."
