EVER HEARD OF FINGERMOUTHING? A bizarre new trend loved by Kylie Jenner and Bella Hadid is sweeping the internet - TheSun

FORGET the duck pout or the belfie, there’s a bizarre new Instagram pose sweeping the internet.

Get ready to – quite literally – try your hand at ‘fingermouthing’.

This unusual new photography stance isn’t as rude as it sounds – it just involves provocatively dangling your fingers in front of your mouth.

Popular with the selfie-loving Kardashian-Jenner clan – Kylie, Kendall, Kim and Khloe have all been seen giving it a go – the likes of Lily Allen and Bella Hadid have also stood in this seductive way.

Buzzfeed, which coined the term, says the pose is supposed to appear “careless” and “off-guard” but is actually “extremely calculated”.

They added it’s ideal for those who want to “show off your manicure in a selfie”.

Kylie, 18, told Elle UK that she started posing in this way because she felt insecure about her pillow-like lips.

She said: “I was so insecure about my lips. Even now I always post photos where my finger is always in front of my mouth…it’s a habit. I would always cover my lips.”

She added that at one point she “couldn’t even talk to people” because she was worried people would be staring at her pout.
