Recently, Kim Kardashian added yet another name to her enemy list. That's right, American model Tyson Beckford can most likely look forward to receiving a bottle of the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star's new perfume come Valentine's Day after the pair kicked off an explosive feud that ended up with Kim being named homophobic and Tyson being called a body shamer by fans.
So, how did it all go down? The drama started when a photo of Kim dressed up for her appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live hit the internet and sparked speculation about plastic surgery that she may or may not have had. Upon seeing the snap - in which Kim's right hip appeared to be a different size and shape to her left - Tyson commented saying: "She is not real, doctor f**ked up on her right hip... Sorry I don't care for it!"
But, of course, you don't shade a Kardashian and get away with it that easily. The mother-of-three soon clapped back writing "Sis we all know why you don't care for it" on the post, a bad move that immediately led to accusations of homophobia from followers, who believed she was using the suggestion that Tyson was gay as an insult.
Now, if you're a fan of the Kardashians, you'll know that, while they fight rather viciously among themselves, at the same time, they always - and I mean always - have each other's backs. So, it will come as little surprise that once Kardashian family matriarch Kris Jenner caught wind of the Tyson-Kim situation, she was more than happy to march onto the battlefield and throw some shade right back at the American actor.
Caught on camera by TMZ - Kris was leaving a restaurant in West Hollywood this week when a photographer asked her about her daughter's feud with Tyson. In response, she asked "Who's Tyson", before giggling to herself and shutting the car door. All in all, exactly the shady reply you'd expect Kris Jenner to give.
Unsurprisingly, Kris isn't the only member of the family to jump in and defend Kim on the allegations of homophobia. Her sister Khloé has also given her two cents on the situation, insisting that her sibling is not prejudiced against the gay community.
She told Extra: "I was with her when that was going on … what I hate is that people are saying that she's homophobic for that, but no one is saying that we shouldn’t also body shame women. I don’t know if people are saying that about him, but I just know people are attacking Kim about being homophobic, I'm like she's anything but, so that’s ridiculous... I was asked to not jump in, 'cause I think that would have made it worse."
As for Kim herself, she hasn't yet replied to the allegations yet, and it remains to be seen whether the pair will bury the hatchet and play nice, or continue fighting for years to come. Don't know about you, but our money is on the latter choice.
