The Kardashian Sisters Are Fighting on Twitter, and People Think Kris Staged It
Grab an oversize salad and one of those Sprites from Khloé’s refrigerator that she’ll never drink, because there is some maybe real, maybe staged Kardashian drama happening on Twitter right now—and it’s all I can think about.
Like most Kardashian fights, the root of this one is something very serious and life-changing: the family’s Christmas card photo. Last week E! shared two clips of Kim and Kourtney arguing because they couldn’t coordinate their schedules for the card’s photo shoot. Kourtney wanted to stop at 4:00 P.M., but Kim had a business meeting then, ergo conflict. It was A Whole Thing that ended with Kim saying Kourtney is the “least interesting” sister to look at. Yikes.
Please note that both Kourtney and mama Kris Jenner laugh during this argument, so…how real is it? I mean, Kim does raise her voice a few octaves, so there must be a smidgen of truth to it.
Regardless, it’s operatic. Watch the video for yourself, below.
Shortly after, E! shared part two of the fight, in which Kourtney calls Kim an “evil human being,” and Kim rebuffs by saying Kourtney is acting like a “lunatic.” At one point, Khloé and Kim are basically running around a backyard. It’s very important.
This all led to a stream of social media posts from Kourtney, Kim, and Khloé. First, Kim replied to a fan who took Kourtney’s side, saying the eldest sister is “sick and tired of being forced to stay relevant” by participating in a bunch of photo shoots. “Oh word, did Kourt tell you this? She sure wanna live that Kardashian life though, and BTW this photo shoot was our Christmas card,” Kim wrote.

When another fan chimed in, saying this fight was just your standard sibling drama that’ll be resolved in a day, Kim took the affirmative.

The tension escalated, though, when Kourtney offered a little insight to E! News about why she’s at such odds with her sisters. “I think it started at the end of season 14, a lot of tension building between us,” Kourtney said. “I felt like every day almost I was being picked on and criticized, and I just couldn’t take it anymore.”
She said the tension among herself, Kim, and Khloé is still “ongoing.” “I’ve been really working on myself a lot, and I think through my growth, I’m better at expressing myself,” Kourtney added. “I think in the past I’ve always been great at like not being emotional. I think that I’m better now at expressing my feelings. So I think this is ongoing. It’s a lot of communication instead of letting things go back into the way that they were. It’s definitely a process, and you’ll see it throughout the season.”
Then Kourtney posted this cryptic Snapchat about anger management, which fans took to be a diss at Kim.
Everything came to a head last night (August 5) on Twitter, conveniently during the Keeping Up With the Kardashians season-15 premiere. “You hear that??? If I don’t take my meeting as scheduled then I couldn’t launch my ULB KKW BEAUTY collection! AND I had this ONLY time slot to plan my baby shower, but Kourt wouldn’t budge to help a sis out,” Kim said, in reference to the aforementioned Christmas card schedule showdown.

Kourtney soon responded with a comment about how her main priority is being a mother.

Which Kim found insulting. “And mine is not? The shoot was with our kids!!!!! My #1 priority is being a mother as well and I can work too, so can you,” she wrote to Kourtney.

That’s when Kourtney conceded—slightly—saying Kim is an “amazing” mother, but they just have two separate outlooks on parenthood. She noted the sisters are always “ride or die,” in case any fans are worried #ChristmasCardGate is going to dissolve the Kardashian empire.

Kim echoed the love. “dont ever get it twisted, me, Kourtney and Khloe are GOOD! ALWAYS!!!! Never question that,” she wrote. Kourtney agreed, simply replying back, “Unconditional love.”

But wait! There’s more! Khloé chimed in on Kourtney and Kim’s tussle, claiming she just wanted “peace” between the sisters. Kourtney called bullshit on that, writing, “Khloé let’s be honest here.”
https://twitter.com/kourtneykardash/status/1026282247815483392
And that…didn’t sit well with Khloé. “What the fuck does that mean?? I didn’t want peace??” she wrote, to which Kourtney replied she did “eventually.”

Khloé then started chewing Kourtney out in a series of tweets. “Stop looping me into your drama with Kim! Don’t ever tweet me that shit again,” she wrote. She was sure to hashtag #KUWTK in all her tweets too, which is perfectly normal behavior in a spontaneous family fight.

The sisters were apparently supposed to have a conference call to settle their differences (LOL). That didn’t happen.

Oh, and Kourtney’s apparently pissed at Kris, as well.

Who, keep in mind, fans think staged this entire brawl for ratings. The devil works hard, but Kris Jenner works harder, etc., etc.

This really is the Shakespearean tragedy of our time.
