Kim Kardashian West Slammed By Fans For This Strange 'Weight Loss Tip'

The internet is officially losing it at Kim Kardashian West today, over this somewhat ridiculous statement.

In a since-deleted tweet, Kim joked: “The flu can be an amazing diet. So happy it came in time for the Met lol #6lbsdown“

Despite deleting the original, Kim shared a second re-tweet of her outfit with the caption “flu got me like…”

The internet, ever a fan of dragging the Kardashian-Jenner clan, reacted quickly and with disdain. While some people found the humorous side to Kim’s strange tweet, other’s pointed out that the flu is not quite so glamorous for those who can’t afford healthcare.
