Why is Kim Kardashian West a controversial celebrity?

Kardashian West first became prominent in the early 2000s when she became associated with celebrities like Paris Hilton and Nick Lachey. Then, in 2007, a sex tape made with her then-boyfriend, singer Ray J, was released.

Kardashian West and her family soon exploded in popularity, especially after the premiere of their TV show, Keeping Up With the Kardashians. For years, they have been entertaining fans with their drama-filled and over-the-top lives.

While there is no doubt Kardashian West is someone who knows how to entertain the public, she has also attracted criticism for the ways she markets herself. Instead of being famous for having skills in singing or acting, she remains relevant by promoting her own sex appeal and making money off of significant events in her life.

What do fans find ‘inspiring’ about Kardashian West?

However, throughout the years, fans have come to admire something about Kardashian West. On a recent Reddit thread, one fan pointed out the fact that Kardashian West continues to uplift herself and work towards her dreams despite multiple humiliating setbacks is “genuinely inspiring.”

“If I was her, I would have given up and retreated back to my safe place,” the fan said. “Seriously, the amount of backlash and insults she has received in the past she really stood her ground and decided she wasn’t going anywhere and it paid off. Looking back to 10 years ago she was kind of a joke and it was cool to hate on her, I think it takes a really strong person to keep their head focused on their dream and refuse to give up.”

Other fans agree, with one user adding, “When I’m feeling inadequate I think to myself what would Kim Kardashian do? She would push on and not give up on her dream. God bless her. It’s still ‘cool’ to hate on Kim but what’s annoying is that those people have probably never taken a step back to see how much Kim has achieved and gone through.”
