On the “Angie Martinez IRL” podcast, Kim Kardashian addressed the furor over her failure to issue a statement about Balenciaga’s controversial campaign right away. She explained that she didn’t feel adequately prepared to speak out about the campaign at first because she didn’t have direct knowledge about it. “I’m like, ‘Wait. I’m not in this campaign,'” she said. “‘Let me take a minute to like research this.'” After she said her piece, Kardashian realized that many of her fans were disappointed that she didn’t take a harsher stance. “Because I didn’t say, ‘F**k you, Balenciaga. That’s it,’ people got mad at that,” she lamented.
Kardashian felt like people would find fault with her behavior no matter what she did — and her complaints were met with yet more criticism on Twitter. Some netizens called her out for being more concerned about how the scandal was impacting her than the actual issue at hand. “She’s mad people saw through her PR influenced statement lol. if she had any intention to cut ties w them she would’ve just done that,” one person tweeted. “She instead ‘denounced’ cp (what a hero..) and is now complaining that the mess hasn’t gone away.” Another critic’s assessment read, “That’s many words for ‘I don’t want to cut ties with whoever gives me my millions.'” And a third person opined, “There is no ‘making mistakes’ or second chances when it comes to such blatant child sexual exploitation.”
