Kim Kardashian Facing Criticism for Inappropriate Photo with Tesla Robot: ‘Shameful’

Kim Kardashian is facing huge backlash online for posing in a sultry manner with a Tesla robot and a Cybertruck.

Fans slammed her for the photoshoot, with many accusing her of misreading the room amid the Elon Musk-owned company’s recent controversies.

The backlash comes after Kim Kardashian hinted that she’ll marry “a fourth” time after admitting that she’s “secretly” dating.

Musk’s Telsa products have become very popular among Hollywood stars, and SKIMS founder Kardashian is notably one of its biggest fans.

The reality TV star recently took to her Instagram page on Friday evening to share stunning images from a recent photoshoot for Perfect Magazine.

In the snaps, Kardashian posed in the back of a Tesla Cybertruck, while in others, she can be seen embracing a Tesla robot.

There is a specific photo causing a stir, showing the mother of four and the Tesla robot lying on a mattress by the ocean, embracing each other.

Kardashian placed her head on its chest region with one of her legs on top of it as she cozied up to the robot with her derierre on full display.

She captioned the photos with the news outlet’s name and tagged the photographer, Steven Klein.

On social media, fans came down heavy on Kardashian, with many questioning the reasoning behind the shoot.

One follower commented, “Strange. I thought you were passionate about civil rights, which is why you pursued a law degree. Seems like that wasn’t serious after all.”

Another said, “You can always find the money where Kim Kardashian is at,” while a third noted, “That’s so embarrassing for your life and your soul.”

On Elon Musk’s platform, X, a user expressed, “This billionaire is acting erratically right now. Even after all this time and having children, she continues to expose herself for attention and hint at a futuristic sexual dystopia. I wish this would stop, please, Jesus.”

Another person shaded Kardashian, commenting, “Damn, I really can’t believe it’s come down to this.. even Kim can’t find a good man to be with.”

“This reminds me of that post that says women will have sex with robots by 2025,” an X user penned.

“She pushing 50 [by the way]… embarrassing,” another fan added.

Kardashian has long been a fan of Tesla, often seen driving her custom vehicles, including the Cybertruck.

She once had a minor run-in with the law while driving her Cybertruck along the Pacific Coast Highway.

According to TMZ, the reality star was pulled over by police due to her front windshield tint being too dark, violating California’s vehicle regulations.

The mother of four was reportedly given a fix-it ticket due to the violation.

This was not Kardashian’s first time getting pulled over for having an overly dark windshield, as she had been warned by police in Calabasas back in 2013 for the same issue.

Meanwhile, Kardashian has hinted at her plans to walk down the aisle again after having been married thrice before.

In the latest episode of her show “The Kardashians,” the businesswoman shared that she’ll marry for “a fourth” time after admitting that she’s “secretly” dating.

Kardashian’s ex-husbands include Damon Thomas, Kris Humphries, and Kanye West.

The conversation surfaced as she and her sister Khloe attended the July 2024 wedding of Anant Ambani and Radhika Merchant in Mumbai, India, where she wondered what her engagement ring for her fourth and final marriage would be like.

“I wonder what my next ring shape will be?” Kardashian asked, per the Daily Mail. “For my last and final hurrah.”

It comes after she admitted in a January episode that she’s “secretly” dating someone. It remains unclear if she is planning on marrying again or if she is just hoping she will.

Elsewhere on the show, the “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” alum discussed her various engagement rings and revealed which one of her ex-husbands took back a ring after divorce.

“Number one was a cushion cut, 14-karat,” she said of the rock Thomas gave her. “I still have it.”

Her second ring was an 18-karat emerald cut from Lorraine Schwartz, reportedly worth about $2 million. However, she couldn’t keep it as Humphries demanded she return it before ending their 72-day marriage.

“I didn’t keep that [ring],” she said on her show. “I was pregnant with North, still married to him. And in order to divorce him, he said I had to give him the ring in my divorce — that I bought. He contributed a fifth.”

Kardashian’s third ring from West was a cushion cut. “That was the only piece of jewelry that I owned that I didn’t take to Paris,” she noted.

The reality TV star famously suffered a robbery attack at her hotel in Paris in 2016. Since then, she has stopped wearing her expensive jewelry piece in public.

Kardahisan also stated that she’s keeping the ring for her eldest daughter, North, because she was there for the engagement.
