Kim Kardashian is receiving backlash after posting a series of videos which depicts Khloe Kardashian and Kendall Jenner praising the 37-year-old’s recent weight loss. The famous sisters have been criticised for using language which is “triggering” and for praising an unhealthy ideal of “thinness.”
“I don’t think you’re eating,” Jenner told her sis. “Like you look so skinny.” Kim replied, “Oh my god the compliments!” adding that she’s “down to 119 pounds (53kg).”

“I will say when I take out my hair extensions I am less,” she continued.
“Your hair extensions, your a–, your tits, everything, they’re heavy, cause she’s f—— voluptuous,” said Khloé. “But she’s anorexic here [gestures to waist], her arms are like pin thin, they’re like my pinky.”

Saw a video where Kendall Jenner tells Kim Kardashian that she looks like she never eats and that she’s concerned about how skinny she is. Kim K says “thank you” in the most delighted voice.
