LET’S ALL CAST our minds back on the moment earlier this month when Kim Kardashian West thought it appropriate to advertise appetite suppressants on her Instagram page.
Appetite suppressants which came in lollipop form, no less.
And now let’s consider the backlash she received on account of that decision.
Take Jameela Jamil’s stance on the matter for instance.
No. Fuck off. No. You terrible and toxic influence on young girls. I admire their mother’s branding capabilities, she is an exploitative but innovative genius, however this family makes me feel actual despair over what women are reduced to. ☹️ pic.twitter.com/zDPN1T8sBM

And given her young and impressionable fanbase, members of the public agreed with Jameela and were critical of her approach to matters of health and body image.
And now as far as they’re concerned, she’s gone and done it again.
Taking to Twitter yesterday, the mother-of-three shared a link to her app which purported to explain how the 38-year-old ‘maximises fat loss’.

And people just aren’t here for it.
In fact, they’re going for Kim with a vengenance, suggesting her figure has more to do with the surgeon’s knife than the trainer’s programme.
And here are some of the sarkiest of the responses.
