Kim Kardashian Accused of Blackface in New Magazine Shoot

Kim Kardashian has been in hot water more than once over the years for what fans have perceived as blackface. Though people have been furious about the issue in the past, just as many fans defended the reality star, saying that the accusations were a stretch. But now the water is boiling, and there is little-to-no wiggle room to get out of it.

Cosmopolitan reports that followers of the KKW Beauty founder erupted this week when she shared a holiday photoshoot that she did with 7 Hollywood, an L.A.-based fashion, celebrity, and art magazine. The shoot was meant to be Elizabeth Taylor-themed, but, in reality, it just straight up is not. Instead, what Kim and art director Thierry Mugler presented to the world is another example of the Kardashian-Jenners getting away with appropriation.

Naturally, Twitter has declared war on the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star, not only for doing blackface, but for doing it AGAIN. Users are fed up with the fact that the 39-year-old businesswoman plays ignorant each time this happens instead of being proactive in respecting other races.

One user posted, “The thing with Kim Kardashian and her family’s tireless history of cultural appropriation and Blackfishing is that she knows better. They know better. But they continue to do this because they know outrage sells. They’re able to keep their name relevant by doing things like THIS.”

Another wrote, “How come nobody is talking about @KimKardashian’s black face…being married to a black man and having mixed babies doesn’t make you a black woman. Putting yourself in the front line of prison reform doesn’t give you a pass either. Thanks for coming to my pep talk.”

Seriously, Kim, get it together.
