35 Of The Most Savage Twitter Reactions To Kim Kardashian Telling Women To Get Off Their Butts And Work
The internet has it out for Kim Kardashian after her recent controversial and inflammatory comment in an interview with Variety: “I have the best advice for women in business: Get your [effing] ass up and work. It seems like nobody wants to work these days.”
The outrage was huge, dear Pandas. Some people were appalled by Kim’s comments, and found them delusional, condescending, insulting, and out of touch with reality. Meanwhile, others couldn’t believe that they were hearing advice from a woman who was born into riches. At the end of the day, women are working incredibly hard and they didn’t take too kindly to being looked down on by Kim. However, some folks share the opinion that Kim does in fact work hard, but that hard work doesn't always lead to success.
Scroll down to see how the internet reacted and share your own thoughts about Kim’s comment, as well as the Kardashians.
Entertainment, pop culture, and lifestyle expert Mike Sington, Hollywood's Ultimate Insider, was kind enough to share his thoughts about Kim's comment with Bored Panda.
"I thought Kim’s comments were way out of line. She came from a family of wealth and privilege, which gave her an advantage the vast majority of women don’t have. The Kardashian interview with Variety was fascinating, because it really got inside the business of being a Kardashian, and it didn’t seem like anything was being held back," he told us. Read on for Mike's full interview about the Kardashian brand with us, Pandas!

Women don't work hard enough?? This woman's a joke. Explain Kim who it is who cleans your mansion. And who's looking after your kids? And whose feet pray tell are on the sewing machines that fashion the outfits you drape yourself in for money? And who's running your errands?? Not Kim or her sneering family that's for sure. Says much that Kim has chosen now to throw muck and contempt at the demographic (women and girls) who have largely funded her lavish, comfortable, extravagant lifestyle. A lifestyle so rich she can hire party balloons that would pay someone's rent for a month. It also shows the total disrespect she harbours for women. Kim Kardashian has probably always been a woman-hater: we just never realised until now.
The Kardashian sisters, especially Kim, should shut the hell up about other people's lives. They were born rich and never really had to "work" a day in their lives. And I mean "work" as in , work to put food on the table and survive another day.
And this is why we’re waiting for an apocalypse to happen to the Kardashian-Jenners. They are eventually going to have to learn.
Load More Replies...So basically what she was supposed to say was "You have to work, get off your a** and get underpaid and undervalued so someone else (who I'm sure isn't as qualified as you) can make all the money"
Time to boycott all things Kardashian. Don't watch their mindless show or buy their junk products.
Celebrity expert Mike, from Los Angeles, told Bored Panda that the Kardashian brand is all about creating drama. "All of it is amplified for the media to create more interest in the family, which feeds the machine. It’s a never-ending cycle," he explained that it's a self-sustaining process where the more attention the Kardashians get, well, the more attention they end up with in the future.
Mike revealed to us that he's "honestly stunned" that interest in the Kardashian family has lasted as long as it has. "I give them a lot of credit for maintaining that interest over so many years and parlaying it into a massively successful business," he said that credit has to be given where it's due.
SO many people need to be on this reality show! And I KNOW the rest of us would watch!
Politicians and celebrities... it would be fantastic.
Load More Replies...Been done. Remember Paris Hilton and Nicole Richie? Working -- for show, of course -- like us peons didn't do a damned thing to awaken either of them. Now, if you made the K clan *permanently* "embarrassed"...!
I guess they got also paid like million dollars per episode, so not really the same..
Load More Replies...I'd kinda want to see this, but so would lots of people and she'd be making even more money of of that!
Kardashian haters would rejoice in the show. If the show became a reality I bet it would be filled with complaining.
F*** that, you need almost a 6 figure income to live by yourself. That b**** live with roommates.
Now THERE is a self-made, talent-blessed beauty.... Inside and out!
The state of Tennessee even has a license plate option with Dolly Parton on it.
"The audience definitely has a love/hate relationship with them. We love gawking over their wealthy and lavish lifestyles. But when we do, we see all the drama and seemingly how messed up they are, which makes us realize how good we actually have it."
Kim believes that she is being “factual” with her comments. “With all respect, and with love, I’m not, like, being a b****,” she told Variety.
Her response to the criticism that she and her family have gotten over the years that they’re ‘famous for being famous’ is, “Who gives a f***.”
“We focus on the positive. We work our asses off. If that’s what you think, then sorry. We just don’t have the energy for that. We don’t have to sing or dance or act; we get to live our lives—and hey, we made it. I don’t know what to tell you,” she said.
If I had lots of money to start a business and pay employees I might just do that
The whole K family is out of touch with reality. They have more money then God and they flaunt it. Yes they do work, but really how hard is it to sit in front of a Mirror putting your makeup on, or having someone else do it for you. How hard is it making a Video showing off your wealth, your beauty and your wardrobe, one piece of their wardrobe cost more then the average person makes in a week.They have never had to decide, “ should I make Mac&Cheese or Hamburger for dinner tonight?” They have never had to face real hardship because they have enough money to buy anything they want from huge Houses to very expensive Cars, which they flaunt continuously. As I said, that whole family is out of touch with reality, the reality we every day people face every day…
When rich people say "Nobody wants to work these days", they mean "I will fire any employee who stops working to eat or sleep".
I believe what they mean is : No one wants to work for less than slave wages anymore.
Load More Replies...I once heard there was a Russian saying ... " While they pretend to pay us , we pretend to work" . Now capitalism says "Nobody wants to work" .... leaving out the fact they don't want to pay . And vacuous kardashians are the epitome of selfishness , arrogance , hypocrisy and narcissism .
If I'd get 100 $/ hour I surely make overtime, but why stay overtime for minimum wage or compensatory time-off? My free time is much more valuable.
Jobs don't exploit people. You are offered a wage with terms and conditions. No one forces you to accept the offer.
Criticism of Kim came from all corners of the net. From your average social media users and well-known figures to businesswomen and even some insiders who used to work for the Kardashians. The general consensus was that the comment was tone-deaf or very limited in scope.
Some folks pointed out that Kim was suggesting that the type of wealth and success that she has can be reached if only you work hard enough. And even if you’re at your limit—exhausted—you might not be working hard enough if you’re not successful yet. But that kind of thinking is very limited in scope. It completely ignores the impact that being born into a wealthy family has on someone’s ventures.
Correction: Birth lottery is how they get rich. Exploitation is how they stay that way.
Again, someone getting rich doesn't mean someone is getting poor on the other end. That's a fallacy.
Exactly. And then they look down on you because you weren't smart enough to be born into the right family.
Yes, she used to be an assistant to Paris Hilton(?), it was a job that she could have quit. She didn't need the job to pay rent, to eat, take the bus or train. She was an assistant in organizing Paris's closet and petty errands. That's it. She got the job because she was already rich and well connected. She was better off being quiet and letting us believe she was vapid instead of removing all doubt. Just my two cents.
This! Let's see how long she lasts taking care of her own kids, cooking, cleaning AND working 🙄
She was an accessory. She didn't actually do anything really, and it elevated her standing in celebrity social circles so she could exploit it to grab more fame
Load More Replies...Sorry for your loss. This is unfortunately what 99%of us look at every day. Your mom gave her life so you could have more. Kim just wants more the rest of her life.
Stories like this opened my eyes to the sorry reality of US-style capitalism and radicalized me. Now I realize that Socialism is good! (Not Communism, though!)

That is the f$##^ truth. Everyone has a different 24hours. It peeves me to hear celebs talk about how they get up at 2am/4am and go to the gym, eat healthy etc etc. Like bro, I don't have a team doing things for me and work for millions during a few weeks of the year. If I got up at 2am I would have gotten 2hours sleep and I have to be on work at 7am to make mediocre wages.
Clutching onto her relevance like the pearl necklace around her neck that she originally earned while laying on her back. Her opinions and ideals are as worthless as a whole and shouldn't matter to anyone. Don't give them anymore publicity and they will all eventually shrivel up and dry out like all of these celebrities do.
She did do that Playboy spread once. I bet that was tiring too. Whew.
Load More Replies...look i hope you guys arent actaully watching sex tapes in your spare time because im 12 and thats a little over the top damn

100% agree with the last part about watching their shitty TV shows
I am proud to say I've never watched a single second of it or them - I don't even know.
Load More Replies...I can say that I've never seen a single second of that show, and I never will.
Exactly! It's the idiots who keep watching their shitty ass show that make them even more rich
That's why she and her family keep getting richer, the people she judges are her viewers.
Load More Replies...I can proudly say that I have never, not once, watched an episode of that show. Get bent, Kim.
I tried watching it one time to see what all the fuss was about. 5 minutes was all I could stand.
Load More Replies...If you want to solve the big problems in the US, you're an idiot if you think taxing 1% of the population more is going to move the needle at all. It isn't. It's not going to magically make UHC a thing, it's not going to pave the way for free university for all, it's not going to make a mark on the $10,000,000,000,000 needed to fix the crumbling infrastructure that has been ignored for years because Americans pay laughably low taxes across the board. The only way any of that starts to happen is by taxing EVERYONE a hell of a lot more than they currently are. While everyone is demanding free college, and that the rich foot the bill ($79 Billion/year) no one is acknowledging the fact that all we really need for that to happen is to raise taxes for Every single adult in the country, by $329 a year. That's Ninety cents a day, for you to prolong your adolescence another 4 years only to find that you're still not going to get hired because there's better options.
Wouldn't it be more logical to just set a boundary of how much one can make? Then put a flat rate tax level per section?
There is no freedom of stopping someone with earning potential
Load More Replies...What’s more, it’s demotivating to hear that nobody supposedly wants to work if you’re barely managing to make ends meet, working multiple jobs, and taking care of your family. All in all, it’s the type of comment that will likely go down in internet history as proof that some celebrities are completely out of touch. Not just with their fans, but with real-life as a whole.
Kim's business plan "Mommy, I want to be famous". "But Kim, you have no talent" "Mommy, want to be famous now!!!" "Ok Kimme. Let Mommy make some calls"
Wait,,, why on earth would you pay your own money to do anything for anyone that you weren't actively sleeping with, married to, or shared DNA
Connections. I'd bet my entire years wages that she made connections that have gotten her places.
Load More Replies...They probably told her they'd reimburse travel, but then she didn't have the "right receipt" or whatever, so they didn't
Load More Replies...Why didn't u just give her snot in one of those plastic bear bottles?
Is she an unpaid intern now or did those connections help lead to prosperity?
Also, while we're at it, stop making stupid people
Load More Replies...Yes! This drives me nuts. The real deal reads "STOP BEING DESPERATE." Also, it's from a fashion show for her sister's line so she wouldn't have even picked it out in the first place.
Load More Replies...Well I look like an idiot, I was here thinking I had to remain poor. Thanks Paris!
Just going to echo the others who have already stated this image is photoshopped. It actually said "STOP BEING DESPERATE."
Her politics seem to be mixed. She worked with Trump to pass a criminal justice bill, but my memory is she has also been critical of him. The comment here about "no one wanting to work" is depressingly right on the right-wing propaganda though, so who knows where she falls these days.
Load More Replies...And to think all it took to get her started was her mom releasing a sex tape of her. I wish my mom would have done the same for me! (Except I don't-complete and total sarcasm.)
Boredpanda should have a block or a mute button. I'm tired of the trolls, hob goblins, douchebags etc.
Working hard is only one piece of the puzzle. Financial expert Sam Dogen, the founder of Financial Samurai, explained to Bored Panda a while back that the people who tend to brag about their work hours and how difficult they have it usually want to be validated in some shape or form.
“Working long after your colleagues are gone means nobody will see your hard work. Hence, you need to tell people about it because the results often take time to manifest. The irony is, if you have great results, there’s no need to tell anybody how hard you work,” Sam said.
This reminds me of when there was the GoFundMe to have Kylie reach a billion dollars. Lets ignore the fact that people actually contributed but what in the actual living f#@#@! Then they called her self-made.
Compare that to Mila Kunis raising money right now for Ukraine. She is from Ukraine.
Load More Replies...I highly doubt any of the kardashians could pronounce pontificate or have any clue of what it means. They probably would think it has something to do with the pope
Not to mention her "International Woman's Day" post was more about herself....
The woman's a sociopath, it's just that she's always managed to hide it. We expect bizarre behaviour from reality tv celebs so her stunts began to seem 'normal'. If her show was just ironing a shirt and going to work, who would be interested? So this creature's mother must have seen something in her daughter -and in herself - that she exploited. Some cold appraisal of shame which utterly eliminated the need to feel it. Because Kim has no shame and writes the script of a life based on lies yet is a millionaire. How did that happen?! She was peed on yet became an A-lister. Pam & Tommy had their honeymoon tape nicked and were destroyed. Kim may be a 👹 hiding in plain sight - a frowsy old wizard's sleeve of a pervert who pretends to befriend while snaking through people's wallets by preying on their needs.
Eight (which should be #1} Go back to Grand Pa Kardashian who after immigrating to CA from Armenia built his own fortune from the ground up starting his own Trash Collecting buisness and ended wound up owning largest meat-packing business in southern California. Not too shabby for a man back in the day. R Kardashian was worth 30 M when he passed. But he wasn't lazy and living off fathers fortune (he had siblings also) he went to college got a degree, invested in/or started buisness. So this is the generation of Do Nothings who reaped how many millions as SEED MONEY!!!
Bill Gates had wealthy-ish parents (upper middle class, multiple homes, able to afford Harvard), introduced him to the right people, and supported him while he was starting Microsoft (possibly gave him seed money, too, but I'm not positive). Jeff Bezos's parents invested $250k in Amazon to help him out. And Elon Musk's dad owned an emerald mine in South Africa. Don't pretend like having wealthy parents isn't a major advantage.
Load More Replies...The expert told us that the world is a very tough and competitive place. Working hard is required to get ahead, but it isn't enough by itself.
“In your 20s and 30s you need to work BOTH smarter AND harder, especially if you are of average intelligence. The world is a brutally competitive place with some of the smartest people also working the hardest. So working long hours while you’re still young and learning is a matter of practicality,” he shared his thoughts with Bored Panda.
Or, Have a mum who hunts down the highest bidder for your sex tape, and in so doing, actually pimping you out. There. Fixed it.
By work you mean making sex tapes. The K clan do most if their so called work on their backs.
I'm a poor person and I don't feel like I would ever try to give advice to RICH people on how to be RICH - it dont make no sense
There are to many rags to riches stories to even mention. You really think every rich person just started that way?
I don't know many rags to riches people. You are one of them. K isn't. Respect to your mother
Load More Replies...“You can’t expect to go straight to the corner office without putting in your dues. At the same time, you can’t expect to outperform your peers simply through hard work. You have to be strategic by building a strong network of relationships internally and externally (clients) who will pull to get you promoted and help you get paid at your next job," Sam said.
I have more respect for a prostitute. At least they work FL their money
They work hard for that money. They should get benefits and be protected.
Load More Replies...THIS! They have the time and resources to do what they like...regular everyday 7-4 jobs don't. We don't have the time, the energy or the money.
Me too. I love school sometimes, learning new facts and stuff
Load More Replies...When you leave your dog with your grandma for a week😅
Load More Replies...yeah my mom is a single mom who has to work one job underpaid as a nurse we litteraly life in my grandmas house which my grandma spent 20 years trying to pay the depts for
Not everyone has a bunch of nannies, chefs, cleaners, trainers, etc, Kim, like you do so you can take photos of yourself and call it work.
I hate what Kim says & all but every timw i see this dog...😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
He added that taking time off is very important in order to fight back against feeling burned out. You have to be very strategic about resting up. “Take sick days and mentally recharge. Don’t just think being ill is just a physical thing. There are plenty of mental illnesses. They are just not as visible. There is no better time than right now to take sick days due to the pandemic and the greater awareness of mental health issues. There is simply not shame in healing the mind!” he said.
Or if you do, ask the first homeless person you see "Have you seen this lady at any of the shelters?"
Load More Replies...I say also take away the car, and still leave her in a city with poor public transportation.
Load More Replies...Yes, she needs to join us in playing that familiar game: "Can I afford food OR medication today? Pick only one!" and see how long she lasts.
Madonna went to New York with $200 slept on the streets did everything she could she hustled to be where she's at
She'd just add it to her reality show and get paid a million or more for sharing her videoed experience.
Two thousand is stil WAYYYY more than others have. People scarp change to get a $1-$5 item. She needs none. Take a $20 and go live in a poverty ridden place.
You know what makes me richer every day? Not watching their sh*t show. 👌
Maybe Russia, instead. The Ukrainian people have enough to deal with.
Load More Replies......making sure her butt looks like two Bernese Mountain puppies fighting under a blanket...
Just an FYI, internships that provide college credit do not need to be unpaid.
Unpaid internships are essentially slavery in a business suit.
Load More Replies...F**k them. I don't understand this unpaid internship b******t. Up here, we offer Coop placements to students and we pay them, give them additional pay in lieu of benefits, and relevant work experience to their field of study. I've never watched the KUWTK or anything to do with them in my small effort to render them irrelevant. I despise people like this, but mostly, I despise their Momager for literally pimping out her daughters for the sake of the almighty dollar. That Mum is purely disgusting.
And how, with unpaid internships, are people supposed to afford cars, gas, college and child care? Do we poop money?
I havent really ever seen unpaind internship bull here, maybe I havent worked in those fields. Only time I have myself been unpaid was when I was kid and we had kinda work learning instead of school (it was part of the school) and that was like one week.. later when we had longer required work experience things I got paid every time.
1) Inter - Talent Management is basically a babysitter/PA - unpaid.
This type of "internship" was supposed to be made illegal when Obama was prez. An unpaid internship is supposed to offer actual learning and work experience. I don't think checking the batteries in the kids' Hummer and running to In-N-Out counts.

I've said this to my friends over and over. I have no intention of being a "big business" owner if it means I have to exploit my workers to get there. I can't live with that on my conscience...but I guess they don't have any.
I've worked for Mom and Pop businesses where they treat their employees like slaves and constantly accuse them of stealing. And pay them as little as is legally allowed. The kind of people who are known in the community as wonderful people.

My first car was in 1976, AND it was a 1963 Plymouth Valiant that my grandmother had bought NEW in 1962 and then passed to my mom when my grandmother got sick, and then passed to my Dad when my grand mother died and mom bought a newer car with the $4000 inheritance she got, and THEN in 1976 when I turned 16, I got the car, AND THE PASSENGER DOOR WOULD NOT OPEN FROM THE INSIDE . . . . and the back floor boards were rusted out, so my dad wedged some wood in the back floor wells, and you could still see the road flying by underneath. --- I was grateful to HAVE that car. Most of my friend had NO CAR.

Load More Replies...Born rich but it wasn't a silver spoon in her mouth that made her famous. Remember that sex tape?
It's difficult to lift a ship out of the water when it's carrying a lot of ballast.
Same here. I don't understand why some of these people feel compelled to say they don't doubt she "works hard." What definition of "work" are these people using?
Load More Replies...Why do these people think she's "worked hard"? I work in a factory, THAT'S hard work.
God I can't stand this family. Please no one watch the new Hulu show. They're getting 9 frigging figures for it! Make Hulu regret it. I canceled my Hulu a month ago. It's as expensive as cable anyway for live tv and multiple people on the account. Keep making new email accounts and get the free month if you see something interesting you want to watch. Make them pull the plug after the first season. They need to go away. The after Covid world doesn't deserve anymore depressing dystopian nonsense from these horrible people. Their products are crappy too and just a knock off of better brands.
Do they... do they assault one another on camera often? I didn't know this was "work".
Imagine what she'd have done if she wasn't born to a rich family!
Load More Replies...I used to get upset over things like this, but then I realized it doesn't matter. That woman will never know what it's like to get up early, and work hard for 9-10 hours, go home, care for family and try to find time for herself. I don't need a vapid entitled woman to tell me how hard to work. I know how hard I work, and why I work so hard. And I do it all and still feel good about myself because I'm not degrading others or throwing them under the bus so I can succeed.
Dear Kim Kardashian people today don't want advice from a walking plastic Thank you
My usual advice to such people will be shared here. Trump, "Ye", KimK, et al.: Get a tube of lube, stand in front of a mirror and go f*ck yourself, you malignant narcissistic tw*t.
KK should be ashamed of herself. How dare she demean those who work harder in one hour than she works in a month? She has no idea what she's talking about.
Hard to ignore when they're technically being forced down our throats (ie they kept popping up in my feed even if I kept hiding posts about them).
