Kim Kardashian usually breaks the internet with her naked photo shoots but her younger sister Khloe Kardashian is stealing the spotlight with what is undoubtedly her sexiest cover to date.

Shot by Steven Gomillion, the 31-year-old graces the cover of Complex magazine's August/September issue wearing a sheer black leotard and arching her back on a stall to accentuate her famous bottom.

Other photos from the sports-themed spread show the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star getting to grips with a set of dumb-bells and pulling on resistance bands.

Sharing a similar sentiment to her fans, Kardashian revealed on Instagram that she is "blown away" by the outcome of the photo shoot.

The accompanying interview is just as revealing as the photos, with the E! reality star addressing a number of issues surrounding her family.

Appearing to confirm her youngest half-sister Kylie Jenner's relationship with rapper Tyga, Kardashian defended their heavily criticised romance and the eight-year age gap.

She told the magazine: "I think at 16 I was probably f*****g someone that was in their twenties, for sure. I wouldn't say I was even dating, probably just sleeping with them. But again Kylie is not a normal 17-year-old.

"You're not gonna say, 'Hey, so what are you doing this weekend?' and have her say, 'Having a slumber party at my girlfriend's,' or 'Going to prom.' That's not what Kylie does."

Kardashian later added of their relationship: "It's a rare circumstance, so let's treat this as a special case."

It has been reported that Kardashian's divorce from husband Lamar Odom has been finalised but at the time of the interview, they were still a married, albeit estranged, couple.

When asked if she is still on speaking terms with the NBA player, the TV star replied: "I talked to Lamar this morning. I talk to Lamar as often as I can, which is inconsistent, but not on my terms.

"When you genuinely feel like that was the right relationship, you're supposed to give it all you can. That's what marriage is about. It's not, 'Let's see if it works, if not we always have divorce.' I am not one of those girls.

"You took a vow before God and you're supposed to abide by that. I'm not rushing into my divorce because I'm not looking to get married tomorrow, so I don't have a deadline. I'm not rushing it. So when it's time and it's supposed to happen, it will."
