For Khloé Kardashian and the rest of her
sisters, taking selfies is basically a full-time
job. But a few recent photos were not received
as she probably expected, and Khloé's response
to backlash to her selfies is right on brand
for the snarky reality star.
Khloé shared a trio of pictures to Instagram
on May 22nd, 2020. They're simple shots of
her, hair down and wavy, in a corset top.
She added the caption,
"location: under b----es skiiiinnnnn."
Everyone in the Kardashian universe seemed
to love the pics. Her BFF Malika Haqq, for
example, wrote,
"Go off!"
And her mom, Kris Jenner wrote,
"My GORGEOUS Girl!!!!!! WOW!!!"
Still, many people criticized the photos,
given that they looked highly edited and Khloé
just doesn't look like she normally does.
Celebs often edit their photos, but Khloe
might have overdone it this time around.
The reactions to Khloé's selfies were all
over the place. Ira Madison went as far to
say on the Keep It podcast that she looks
"Caucasian" in a way that the Kardashian sisters
usually don't. Many fans even suggested that
she had plastic surgery while quarantining
due to coronavirus, which is slightly absurd,
given that non-essential surgeries have been
canceled or postponed during the pandemic.
"Are you being serious?"
"Yeah."
"Oh."
So, when Khloé posted another selfie just
days later and someone asked her why she looks
so different in all of her photos, she was
ready with a comeback, saying,
"From my weekly face transplant clearly."
Some people probably think the Kardashian
and Jenner sisters actually do get weekly
face transplants, in fact, certain people
responded to Khloé's retort suggesting that
she was hiding something. According to In
The Know, one commenter wrote,
"She's probably sarcastically telling the
truth."
"What is up your ass?"
Every time Khloé posts a picture, the internet
explodes with body-shaming haters, making
it seem like she really can't do anything
right. People call her out for her weight
and then they also call her out for trying
to lose weight, like on her show Revenge Body,
which follows the arguably questionable premise
that after a breakup, the most important thing
to do is lose weight and tighten up your body.
Khloé is open about the topic of body image
and how it's evolved, telling W Magazine,
"I think Kate Moss is fabulous and I love
her, but that was never something that I could
have been. When I was younger, I was a lot
chubbier and a lot rounder than I am today.
I always thought, 'Who can I look up to?'...Then
J.Lo came along and I was like, 'Ah!'"
Khloé admitted to the magazine that growing
up, weight was always an issue for her. She
said,
"My family never made me feel less than. My
sisters and I all looked different...I didn't
know that I was bigger or different than them
until I started doing our TV show. I started
to be in the public eye and people were able
to pick me apart...I really commend my mom
and my sisters for never making me feel less
than."
From what she says, Khloé really doesn't
take fan comments about her new look into
consideration beyond leaving a snarky comment
or two on social media. In a June 1st, 2020
report, a source told Us Weekly that Khloé
thinks she looks "great." The insider explained,
"Khloe doesn't care about the backlash she's
been getting from fans saying she doesn't
look like herself in her recent photos."
The source reportedly added that as long as
Khloé is happy and in good spirits, she doesn't
care what people are saying about her. Still,
it's possible she cares at least a little
bit, considering she's checking fan comments
and even responding to them with sarcasm or
jokes. If Khloé truly didn't want to hear
anyone's opinions, she could always disable
the comments instead, especially considering
that she and her sisters know that people
will have something to say about anything
that they post. But then again, what fun is
posting a selfie if you're just going to disable
the comments?
