The 35-year-old mother of two is set to accept the brand-new Break the Internet Award at this year's 20th awards show in person. The Webby Awards, the internet's most coveted honor when it comes to content creators, limits winners to five-word acceptance speeches. It's going to be interesting to see what she will say with only five words.

Kardashian isn't the only member of her family who will be honored this year. Her husband, Kanye West, is among several other honorees, including Jessica Alba, Lena Dunham, Jenni Konner and the satirical news organization The Onion.
