Khloe Kardashian, co-founder of a popular US clothing line Good American and reality TV show star of the long running Keeping up with the Kardashians, has landed in trouble after a photograph of hers with model Slick Woods went viral. The photograph shows Woods sitting at her feet, while she pats her head. Sounds a bit awkward already, doesn’t? The photograph went viral due to the imagery it seemed to be conjuring – that of racism. Social media predictably slammed Khloe Kardashian for being part of such a photo shoot.
Khloe posted the photograph on her Instagram with a caption “This chick right here is crazy, sexy, cool all rolled into one @slickwoods! Slick was so much fun to shoot with! She’s a force to be reckoned with! #GoodSquad #GoodAmerican,” as reported by Indian Express, but she seems to have removed the post after all the negative attention it garnered.
It was too late by then and the photograph had already appeared on various other platforms like Twitter and people were definitely not happy about it.
And the reactions followed:

Slick Woods is waaaaaaaaay too talented and all-around exceptional to resort to this. Whose creative director allowed this? https://t.co/n5v1xQ0kr2
