Kim Kardashian has publicly expressed her support for electric vehicle manufacturer Tesla, sparking a mixed reaction from fans and protesters. The celebrity shared photos of herself with the company’s Cybertruck and Optimus robot in a recent photo shoot, which quickly went viral on social media.
The move comes as protests against Tesla have been ongoing across the United States due to Elon Musk’s role in the Donald Trump administration. Gunshots were fired at a Tesla dealership in Oregon last week, while four Cybertrucks were destroyed in a blaze in Seattle earlier this month. Police have arrested numerous individuals involved in the demonstrations.
Despite the controversy, Kim Kardashian’s post has garnered support from many fans, with some praising her for standing by her values and supporting a company they believe in. However, others have been critical of her stance, with some commenting that she is “controlled” by Republican ideology.
The incident highlights the complex nature of celebrity endorsements and their impact on public perception. As protests against Tesla continue, it remains to be seen how Kim Kardashian’s support for the company will affect her reputation and relationships with fans.
