The 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' star has teased fans she is thinking of signing up for the app, which allows users to send photos, videos and other messages that are deleted after a short space of time.

Kim appeared in a Snapchat video posted to DJ Khaled's account, in which she laughed and smiled as he sang her praises.

Khaled said: "Ayo Kim, they don't want you to wear the Saint Laurent fur. They don't want you to break the app store.

"They don't want you to be the biggest boss in the game. So, what we gonna do is we gonna win more."

The 34-year-old beauty - who has children North, two, and Saint, four weeks, with husband Kanye West - then shared an image from the video on her social media accounts and wrote: "Should I? #SNAPCHAT.(sic)"

And her fans were clearly excited by the idea, as her Instagram posting - which had 'Kim Snapchat soon come' written on the still - has already attracted over 700,000 likes.

Kim's half-sister, 18-year-old Kylie Jenner, is currently the most viewed person on Snapchat and often makes multiple posts a day.
