But what does it all mean?
Kim Kardashian has just been named the most dangerous celebrity to search for online in 2018, but it’s not entirely as it sounds.
The cybersecurity firm behind the list, McAfee, isn’t suggesting that Kim herself is dangerous, it is instead suggesting that her name is associated with the most malicious websites.
The annual list measures how many search results featuring a celebrity’s name contain links to dangerous websites.

And she’s not alone, joined by everyone from Love Island host Caroline Flack and megastar Adele to actress Rose Byrne and singer Britney Spears.
