Over the past few weeks, fashion lovers have seen Balenciaga come under fire for its latest ad featuring a photo of a child holding a sexually suggestive teddy bear backpack.
The scandal has also affected Kim Kardashian, who angered the public when she posted a picture of herself in a dress from a big name last week. After a few days, he released a statement to appease the offended parties and fans.

In her first conversation on the matter, Kardashian explained via a Twitter thread why it took her so long to publicly address Balenciaga’s controversial campaign:
“I have been silent for the past few days, not because I am not disgusted by the recent Balenciaga campaign, but because I wanted the opportunity to speak with their team to understand for myself how this could happen.”
The reality star, who has developed a close relationship with the fashion brand and walked in their fashion show in Paris in July, added, “As a mother of four, I was shocked by the disturbing images. The safety of children must be held in high regard and any attempt to normalize child abuse should have no place in our society – period.”
While the mother of four appreciates Balenciaga’s “removal of the campaign” and their apology, she believes that speaking with them has helped them “understand the seriousness of the issue and will take the necessary steps to prevent this from happening again.” he draw conclusions:
“Regarding my future with Balenciaga, I am reevaluating my relationship with the brand, based on their willingness to accept accountability for something that should not have happened in the first place — & the actions I expect them to take to protect children.”

Twitter users who read the statement immediately responded, concluding that the controversy would not stop Kardashian from wearing Balenciaga dresses and other fashion items. Someone asked, “Why do you still have to talk to them? You need to break up with them immediately & use your money to research deeply what is going on. There is more than just a campaign.”
“You say all this but refuse to cut ties with them [clown emojis]. Fuck you and pedo a** balenciagia [clown emoji],” a second user chimed in. A third critic who was supposedly mulling his plan, tweeted, “Instead of breaking up, he’s “reevaluating. Basically he’s waiting for people to calm down so he can go back to advertising for them.”
In case you missed it, The Blast reported that the drama happened after Kardashian posted a photo of herself in a Balenciaga x Adidas collaboration outfit on Instagram. The “Kardashians” star sat on a couch and posed in front of a mirror in what appeared to be a closet.
He wore a gray top with the fashion brand’s combined logo embroidered on it over spandex bike shorts and their signature thigh-high boots.
Although some commentators initially laughed at Kardashian lashing out at ex-husband Kanye West, who was fired by both fashion companies following his antisemitic comments. However, things went awry when news of Balenciaga’s unsavory campaign went viral.

Although Kim had good intentions when she decided to spend Thanksgiving with the young inmates at Camp Kilpatrick in Malibu, it was taken out of context when people saw who she went with.
The Blast shared that the up-and-coming attorney spent the day with her ex-brother-in-law Tristan Thompson — the NBA star who fathered her younger sister Khloe’s two children while cheating on her multiple times.
Kim’s caption for an image from the event began, “This year I want to thank the people I met in all the prisons around the country.” The businessman explained why he and Thompson were there, pointing out:
“My favorite part of our dinner is going to the table and hearing what their dreams and aspirations are. I can’t wait to see it all come to fruition.”
The SKIMS founder’s update started a conversation in the comments with one IG user asking, “why do you still meet him at times that don’t involve his daughter.” The post has received nearly two million likes.
