Waxman Staff Writer Sep 9, 2014 2:25 PM UTC Kim Kardashian has finally participated in the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge, in which people get doused in ice water and post video proof online or donate to ALS research as part of a viral fundraising effort that has raised more than $100 million. Kardashian, who is married to Kanye West and stars in _Keeping up with the Kardashians,_ made the challenge her own by taking one of her signature selfies as Ellen DeGeneres dumped a bucket of ice water over the reality TV star’s head on [_The Ellen Show_](http://www.ellentv.com/videos/0-754h0k44/)_._ Just before she got soaked, the “selfie queen” exclaimed, “Oh my god, I don’t even want to see this happening to me.” Also, there’s a lot of screaming, so you may want to turn the volume down on your computer before you watch the above clip. Here’s another view that Kardashian posted on her [Instagram.](http://instagram.com/p/suAOr4OS5%5F/) No word on whether the selfie will be in _Selfish,_ [her upcoming book](http://time.com/3094098/kim-kardashian-selfie-book-selfish/) on selfies due out April 2015. ```json [{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"NewsArticle","@id":"https://time.com/3309446/kim-kardashian-als-ice-bucket-challenge/","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://time.com/3309446/kim-kardashian-als-ice-bucket-challenge/"},"headline":"Of Course Kim Kardashian Took a Selfie While Doing the Ice Bucket Challenge","datePublished":"2014-09-09T14:25:54.000Z","dateModified":"2026-04-13T07:13:03.964Z","description":"Exactly what you'd expect from her","url":"https://time.com/3309446/kim-kardashian-als-ice-bucket-challenge/","keywords":["Newsfeed","celebrity"],"thumbnailUrl":"","author":[{"@type":"Person","name":"Olivia B.
