Riverdale actress Lili Reinhart is not happy with Kim Kardashian, having taken to her Instagram Stories earlier this week to slam the reality star for glorifying the idea of starving yourself to fit into a dress, which was in reference to Kim saying she didn’t eat carbs for weeks in preparation for the Met Gala.
The mother-of-four looked stunning in a rhinestone dress previously worn by Marilyn Monroe when she sang Happy Birthday to former U.S. President John F Kennedy in 1962. During her brief chat with Vogue on the Met Gala red carpet, Kim stressed that she had completely cut out carbohydrates and sugar from her diet for three weeks to squeeze her vulouptous frame into the timeless outfit. “It was such a challenge,” she said. “It was like a [movie] role. I was determined to fit [into] it. I haven’t had carbs or sugar in about three weeks. We’re having pizza and donut party back at the hotel [after the Met Gala].”
Lili certainly wasn’t amused by Kim’s decision to share her unhealthy diet with the public. She took aim at the TV personality for giving the impression that starving to look good in a dress was not the message she should have sent to her impressionable fans. “To walk on a red carpet and do an interview where you say how starving you are … because you haven’t eaten carbs in the last month… all to fit in a f*****g dress?” she wrote on her IG Story. “So wrong. So f***** on 100s of levels.”

“To openly admit to starving yourself for the sake of the Met Gala. When you know very well that millions of young men and women are looking up to you and listening to your every word. The ignorance is other-worldly disgusting.”
Lili Asks Fans Not To Take Tips From Kim Kardashian
The 25-year-old then pleaded with her fans not to support “stupid, harmful celebrities” whose lives only revolve around their bodies as she expressed that her rather feisty choice of words was simply down to seeing Kim make light of refusing to eat certain meals so that she could wear her Marilyn Monroe dress.
“I am not generally an angry person but I swear to God, the toxicity of this industry sometimes really gets to me and I have to do my little Instagram-story rants to release my rage.”
Kim attended Monday’s Met Gala alongside her mother, Kris Jenner, and sisters Kourtney, Khloe, Kendall, and Kylie Jenner. Her boyfriend of six months, Pete Davidson, was also in attendance.
So far, Kim has not responded to Lili’s comments about the remark she was criticized for.
