Kim Kardashian Faces Backlash for Tesla Photo Shoot Amid Elon Musk Controversy

Kim Kardashian has faced criticism on Instagram after posting photos from a shoot with Perfect Magazine featuring her posing on a Tesla Cybertruck. The photos, which also show her embracing the company’s robot, have sparked debate over her apparent support for CEO Elon Musk amid protests against his leadership. Many fans have called out Kardashian for appearing to side with Musk, who has been involved in controversy surrounding Trump’s dismantling of the federal government.

Kardashian had initially avoided taking a stance on politics during the presidential election, but her past actions have raised questions about her allegiances. In January 2021, she appeared to show support for Melania Trump by sharing an inauguration photo from Donald Trump’s event. This move sparked backlash among fans who claimed she endorsed Republicans.

Kardashian has denied any intention of making a political statement in the recent photoshoot, stating that she feels like “so robotic” due to her work with Tesla. However, some critics argue that her involvement with the company is a tacit endorsement of Musk’s leadership and Trump’s presidency.

The controversy surrounding Tesla has led to plummeting shares and vandalism against owners’ vehicles. In an attempt to reverse this trend, President Trump recently announced plans to purchase a red Tesla Model S.
