Kim Kardashian is under fire again — this time for allegedly airbrushing her sister Khloé Kardashian on Instagram during their recent trip to Japan. Fans were quick to notice that Khloé’s face appeared unnaturally altered in photos shared by the Skims co-founder.
On Friday, Kim posted a carousel featuring herself, Khloé, and her three youngest kids — Saint, 10; Chicago, 8; and Psalm, 6 — in what looked like a Japanese arcade. The first shot shows the sisters in front of claw machines, Khloé clutching a giant stuffed animal. Caption: “JAPAN THINGS 🇯🇵🕹️👾🏁🥋⚔️.”
But online observers were not impressed. “Why does Khloé look photoshopped in? It looks like she’s been pasted in and resized to Kim’s height lol,” one Reddit user wrote. Others chimed in: “Ya’ll do not look like this in person. Kim, embrace your age and imperfections. Especially Khloé,” said another. Comments noted “facetuning” and odd proportions, with one fan bluntly stating: “We saw you at the Oscar party. We know you don’t look anywhere close to this. Nor does your sister.”
The trip also included rumored boyfriend Lewis Hamilton. Photos show Kim and the F1 driver strolling arm-in-arm in Tokyo alongside Khloé and friends. Hamilton was spotted interacting with Kim’s eldest son, Saint, inside a store selling sneakers and rare Pokémon cards. The couple’s romance first surfaced in February during a UK getaway.
For Kim, the Japan trip was a mix of family time and rumored romance — but for her followers, it sparked another round of criticism over reality versus Instagram optics. The message from fans was clear: the Kardashian glow on-screen doesn’t always match reality in person.
