About two years ago, Khloe Kardashian was fighting desperately to get a photo of herself removed from the internet.
It was not naked. And it wasn’t a paparazzi snapshot. It was a normal, unfiltered picture of her in a bikini at a family party. Khloe’s body image issues have plagued her for many years.
This week, Khloe posted some drop-dead gorgeous Thirst Trap photos. His own sister took him away. Yes, she is in bikini.
But considering Khloe’s past behavior and the tremendous influence she has had on many of her followers… this is giving some people a serious misgiving.
No one is disputing that Khloe Kardashian looks drop-dead beautiful in her latest Instagram bikini photos.
That’s a knockout. This is not a new thing. Even when Chloe is pretty sure she’s not, she’s a total hottie. And, for many years, she’s also been a total MILF.
Kendall took these photos for her, which show a glimpse of Khloe’s legendary booty. There was a time when it looked like Khloe was padding her butt. But that was about a year ago. This photo appears unfiltered and as natural as Khloe can be.
Khloe’s body image issues are no secret. And they are not unrelated to his fame.
When keeping up with the Kardashians When it first began, more than a decade and a half ago, it was a period of intense visibility and mainstream body-shaming.
Remember: These days, when someone body-shams someone, it becomes a scandal. But it was sadly not long before the “scandal” would have a normal human body with alleged “flaws”.
Compared to Kourtney’s traditionally alluring body and the extreme hourglass proportions that Kim flaunts to date, Khloe’s normal human body made her a target.
It was the dawn of social media. For the first time, the scathing comments people “whisper” to friends in online spaces could easily make their way onto famous people’s screens.
Ever had an actor pick up on your thirsty-tweet or sarcastic livetweet? Sometimes it’s fun, sometimes it’s awkward. But Khloe witnessed despicable things that clearly left an indelible mark on her psyche.
But Khloe has lucky genetics, a desire to transform her body, and the biggest key to any body transformation: virtually unlimited financial resources. Thus, her famous “revenge body” took shape.
However, it is abundantly clear from her repeated Photoshop scandals and other editing incidents that Khloe has lingering issues. Maybe even trauma.
Body-image issues aren’t really about your body. They are internal. no matter how warm Khloe is (traditionally or otherwise), she seems to struggle to look that way at times.
Never has this been more apparent than in April of 2021, when Khloe tried to move heaven and earth to recreate a photo from across the internet. A photo in which she looks normal. Beautiful, even.
Her rep later confirmed, “A color edited photo of Khloe was taken during a private family gathering and mistakenly posted on social media without permission.”
“Khloe looks beautiful,” her rep admitted. “But it is within the copyright owner’s right not to want an image that is not intended to be published.”
Khloe’s body-image issues, just like her body, are her own. We hope she can work through them and find herself loved and appreciated.
But the impact this personal battle has had on fans is worth noting. Because, when you’re manipulating photos that are seen by thousands or even millions of people, it’s not really “private”. and no one can honestly question that a kardashian influencer Influences followers. It’s right there in the name.
With all of that in mind, we can enjoy Khloe’s unfiltered bikini pics. But… it’s perfectly reasonable for them to rub people the wrong way.
