Khloé Kardashian turns the heat up on her haters with steamy video footage
Calabasas, California – Known for being the most brazen of the Kardashian sisters, Khloé has posted new stripped-down videos to clap back at the flack she's received for trying to make a leaked photo disappear.
Khloé Kardashian responded to the mayhem caused by an unedited photo of her that was shared across the internet this week with some attention-grabbing videos.
The star said she would continue to post "unapologetically."
"This isn’t photoshopped," she wrote under the almost-naked videos posted to her Instagram late Wednesday night.
She accompanied the scantily clad shots with a long statement on her Instagram and Twitter about the controversial "Photo-gate."
"My body, my image and how I choose to look and what I want to share is my choice," Khloé said.
The circulated photo at the center of the scandal showed a natural-looking Khloé without much makeup or airbrushing. It was allegedly posted without the star's permission by an assistant on Monday.
The Kardashian family did damage control this week to wipe the photo from social media, saying it violated copyright issues. They even had some users' accounts blocked for sharing the image.
"The photo that was posted this week is beautiful. But as someone who has struggled with body image her whole life, when someone takes a photo of you that isn't flattering...you should have every right to ask for it not to be shared – regardless of who you are," Khloé said.
The 36-year-old explained that the constant pressure of being in the spotlight and compared to her sisters "has been too much to bear."
That's why, in addition to getting beauty treatments and wearing makeup, she said she loves photo enhancements that help her feel better about her image.
"I love a good filter, good lighting and an edit here and there," the reality star said.
"I'm of course not asking for sympathy but I am asking to be acknowledged for being human," she added.
The photo that sparked the controversy continued to be circulated
The Kardashians and famous friends show their support on social media
Khloé's statement was met with an outpouring of support. Many commenters wrote how much they loved the star.
"You’re so beautiful! And inspire me," one Twitter user said.
Famous friends chimed in as well.
"Love u and your heart," said Ariana Grande.
Of course, the Kardashian crew were also some of the first to respond. Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner both wrote a simple, "I love you."
"You beautiful, strong, HEALTHY queen," Kendall Jenner commented.
"Khloé you are the kindest most loving, most supportive, most beautiful heart I have ever known, and I adore you and am so proud of you," said family Momager Kris Jenner.
Whether wiping unwanted photos or showing their support for newly posted ones, the Kardashian family definitely has each other's backs.
