Dame Helen Mirren may be lawan lucahlukewarm on most aspects of Kim Kardashian's life, but her butt is not one of them.
“I’m not into the Kardashians, it's a phenomenon I just don’t find interesting," Mirren told the Sunday Telegraph Magazine. "But—and this is the big word: B-U-T-T—it’s wonderful that you’re allowed to have a butt nowadays.”
