Yet another entitled celebrity who was born with a silver spoon in their mouth is offering work advice to regular folk.

Kim Kardashian is facing backlash after statements that echo the opinion many of society’s elite seem to have on working people.


As reported by Buzzfeed, in a short clip of an interview with Variety Kardashian offered this advice to women in business:

“I have the best advice for women in business: "
"Get your f*cking ass up and work."
"It seems like nobody wants to work these days.”

Kardashian was joined by her sisters Khloe, Kourtney and her mother Kris, who all nodded in agreement with her statement.

Her comments come at a time in history where the wealth gap is glaringly clear, and workers around the world have come to the collective realization they are being overworked, poorly treated, and underpaid.

For women specifically, Bloomberg Equality released results of a global study that found women spent an additional 173 hours working unpaid child care in 2021 compared to 59 additional hours by men. Those extra work hours only apply however to people who don't have full-time staffs of housekeepers, nannys, chefs, personal assistants, etc...

Kardashian went on to say:

"You have to surround yourself with people that want to work"
"Have a good work environment where everyone loves what they do, because you have one life. No toxic work environments."

People were not impressed by her "wisdom" and voiced their displeasure on Twitter.


They pointed out that Kardashian was born wealthier than most, and so had a leg up when it came to starting her business empire:


She never had to face the hardships and disadvantages that average working class woman does:

Some users felt that these comments were so out of touch and outrageous, that it must be another Kardashian publicity stunt:

The reality is it is nearly impossible for someone to simply work their way into great wealth.

People can work multiple jobs and still live paycheck to paycheck or be homeless.

Generational wealth is a major factor when it comes to most of the millionaires and billionaires who exist today.

Stephen Colbert Makes Somber Plea To Americans In Wake Of Charlie Kirk's Death

Late-night host Stephen Colbert had a somber message for Americans as he addressed the assassination of far-right activist Charlie Kirk, stressing that "political violence only leads to more political violence."

Kirk died after an unidentified gunman shot him in the neck as he—ironically enough—mocked victims of gun violence at an event in Utah Valley State University. Kirk's murder has galvanized the far-right, with President Donald Trump and his surrogates claiming without evidence that rhetoric from Democrats is responsible for Kirk's death.

TikToker Hilariously Calls Out Target After Champion Pants Feature Awkwardly-Placed Front Pleat

Sometimes you can just tell when something was designed *for* women, but was not actually designed *by* women.

Take, for instance, the new pleated pants available at Target from the Champion clothing line. While there's nothing wrong with pleated pants and they certainly have a suitable spot in the workplace, the latest rendition of Champion pleated pants are, shall we say, NSFW.

Woman Goes Viral After Revealing How Her Obsession With Matcha Landed Her In The Hospital

Let's be honest: Too much of anything isn't good for us. It's all about the balance!

But the media and social media trends have taught us that certain things are really good for us, encouraging us to be like the "very mindful and very demure" girls and take care of ourselves. One such example is drinking more matcha, especially if you really like coffee or think you have a caffeine addiction.
