Kim Kardashian West was accused of cultural appropriation after she filmed herself with “Bo Derek braids.”
In fact, Kim went on to sport Fulani braids again on the red carpet at the MTV Movie & TV Awards in June.
After receiving more backlash, she explained that she likes to wear braids because her daughter North likes when they match hairstyles, but didn’t exactly apologize.

People had a lot of thoughts when Kim unveiled the bottle for her fragrance KKW Body in April, which was shaped from a mold of her naked body.
The promotional pictures — especially a full frontal nude photo — naturally divided the internet as some praised the mom-of-three for embracing her body while others shamed her.

In July, Forbes revealed that Kylie Jenner was on the cover of its yearly “America’s Women Billionaires” issue. The magazine estimates Jenner’s net worth to be roughly $900 million, making her the 27th-richest self-made woman in the US.
However, many took issue with Forbes classifying Jenner as a “self-made” near-billionaire, which sparked heated debates about privilege, luck, and the nature of leveraging unearned fame. Even Dictionary.com entered the fray with a surprisingly brutal subtweet.

On a later episode on Season 15 of “KUWTK,” Kim opened up to Kendall and Scott Disick about her days as a wild child. She even admitted that she did ecstasy and got married and then made her famous sex tape while she was on the drug.
“I did ecstasy once, I got married. I did it again and I made a sex tape,” Kim said. “Like, everything bad would happen.”
“You were high on ecstasy when you did that sex tape?” Disick asked. “Absolutely! Everybody knows it. My jaw was shaking the whole time,” Kim said.

Although all families fight, the explosive argument between Kim and Kourtney about the family’s annual Christmas card kicked the concept of sibling rivalry up a notch.
At one point, an angry Kim derided Kourtney for her work ethic and said that her older sister is “the least interesting to look at” — and the memorably savage moment quickly became a meme.
The argument culminated in Kourtney calling her sister “a very distraught, evil human being.”

The ridiculous feud captured fans’ attention for weeks, especially after Scott and Kylie reportedly moved their seats to avoid Minaj at MTV’s Video Musica Awards and Kylie seemed to purposefully avoid Minaj on the red carpet.
The next day, Minaj dragged the couple’s 6-month-old baby into the fray.
“I love Kylie, I love Kim, I actually love all of them. I know that you guys are saying me and baby Stormi have beef,” she said, followed by a laugh. “Yes we do. Now, this is what the f— is happening today. Me against baby Stormi. We have this rivalry now.”

In April, the rapper launched into a rant about Trump on Twitter, calling the president his “brother” and claiming they are both “dragon energy.” But at one point, he walked back his support — apparently because Kim called him in the midst of his tirade and ordered him to be “clear.”
“My wife just called me and she wanted me to make this clear to everyone. I don’t agree with everything Trump does. I don’t agree 100% with anyone but myself,” West wrote.
