Kim Kardashian tweeted her condolences to victims of the deadly Boston explosions on April 15. However, just 24 minutes later, she tweeted promoting her mom’s new QVC collection, and drew vehement attacks. Was she insensitive?
When Kim Kardashian tweeted to her 17 million followers to watch her mother Kris Jenner on QVC tonight April 15, tweeters immediately attacked her for insensitivity to victims of the terrible explosions during the Boston marathon that left two dead.
“Check out @krisjenner on @QVC’s PM Style Show at 7PM EST tonight!” Kim tweeted in the midst of the horrible explosions that occurred in Boston. Quickly thereafter, her followers responded — and they weren’t happy with the reality star.
One tweet read: “America is in the midst of a tragedy right now. F— you.”
Shortly after Kim’s tweet, her mom Kris Jenner sadly followed her insensitive lead.
“Dolls! Don’t miss me tonight at 8pm ET on @QVC! I’m debuting my gorg new scoopneck tunic on PM Style!! Join me!” Kris wrote on her Twitter, receiving a backlash just like Kim. However, then she removed it.
Just when we thought that she realized the bad timing, she tweeted again: ”So excited to be on @QVC for PM Style tonight! Take a peek at this new animal print dress from my Kollection!”
While those promotional tweets may have been timed, some still don’t find it acceptable.
One tweet read: “this isn’t the time for self promotion. Please unschedule your tweets.”
Does anyone really expect less? Lets take a look at a past Kimmy K kuote ""But I think that, with any decisions in life, like, I spoke to a girl today who had cancer and we were talking about how this is such a hard thing for her, but it taught her a big lesson on who her friends are and so much about life. She's 18. And I was like, that's how I feel."
