Morphine Prince 100,212 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 The reality TV star, who boasts 111 million followers on the social media platform, deleted a sponsored advertisement for appetite suppressant lollipops on Wednesday after facing criticism from those who called her "irresponsible" and "vile," but a few hours later, the post was live again. A publicist for the "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star did not immediately respond to ABC News' request for comment, and Kardashian West herself has yet to speak out about the controversy. Kardashian West, 37, has been a spokeswoman for Flat Tummy Co. for months and has gushed online at least twice about the company's meal replacement program. However, when she posted an advertisement for Flat Tummy Co.'s appetite suppressant lollipops, calling them "literally unreal" and offering a discount, critics bashed her for promoting the product. "You terrible and toxic influence on young girls," "The Good Place" actress Jameela Jamil tweeted about the post. "MAYBE don’t take appetite suppressors and eat enough to fuel your BRAIN and work hard and be successful. And to play with your kids. And to have fun with your friends. And to have something to say about your life at the end, other than 'I had a flat stomach.'" She later went on to celebrate the ad's removal.

GypsyBabe 22,836 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 People like her need to understand the role of their voices in the world. She is promoting this lollipop that makes you “not hungry” to young girls who look up to her. It is unhealthy and irresponsible. ⚯͛ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

shame 25,360 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 good thing you get to choose who you look up to. if u think it's rational to do what a celebrity tells you to do, then there's probably something you should work out for yourself angels forever, forever angels Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it's still irresponsible of her. She has every right to promote what she want's, however I think that she could take a second to realize the repercussions of her actions instead of just taking the money. ⚯͛ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Knife 6,469 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 I bet you we won't catch her daughter with one of those things in her mouth. This woman would promote anything for a dollar. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Catnikko 13,111 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Idgi what's wrong with her promoting that? Isn't that helpful to someone who wants to lose weight? Is it Kim's fault parents let their teen kids follow anything she promotes even if it might not be directed at them? i just don't get it Dance in the shadow of the meow Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzi 2,800 Posted May 18, 2018 Share Posted May 18, 2018 Gahh I feel like everyone is overreacting. She didn't specifically say "omg buy this lollipop so you don't have to eat AT ALL throughout the day". It seems more like something to distract you in between meals from unnecessary cravings... a purpose covered by a lot of products that have been in the market and advertised for YEARS without any backlash included.
