Khloé Kardashian has found herself in the middle of a lot of messes lately, and no, we're not talking about Tristan Thompson cheating.
Khloé is the cofounder of Good American, a clothing company that sells jeans somewhere in the $150 to $200 range. The high price tag is well worth it to one fan, who tweeted that she has to work for 20 hours just to afford one pair.
"And I'm in love with them," she wrote. "Catch me picking up extra shifts."
Ugh, budgets! Relatable. Khloé spotted the tweet, and she replied by calling the fan's situation "cute."
"Awwwwww this is so cute!!!! I’m so happy you enjoy them," Khloé tweeted.

Annnd a thousand Twitter users choked on their tea in unison. Khloé calling it "cute" that a fan has to work for days to buy just one pair of her jeans is tone-deaf, according to a ton of people on social media.
This is just one of severalcontroversial Khloé-isms.
Khloé Kardashian split with her ex Tristan Thompson in February, and ever since, she just keeps having major foot-in-mouth moments on social media. Coincidence? Maybe.
First, Khloé posted a photo of a T-shirt about "loving your neighbor" on her Instagram story. The shirt includes a line about loving your racist neighbor, which is Not A Good Look for a white woman with a black daughter.
And then! Khloé posted another meme, this time with a couple getting married. The groom is supposedly paralyzed, and his friends are holding him up.
Except that's not what's happening here at all. The embrace is actually a black fraternity tradition that Khloé apparently had no clue existed.
Khloé eventually defended herself with this one, pointing out that she didn't make the meme herself, and she just reposted it because she thought it was cute. OK, we hear you!
But then, there was this tweet from a fan. The woman wrote that she has to work for 20 hours just to afford one pair of jeans from Khloé's clothing brand, Good American.
Far from angry, the fan is actually very willing to pick up extra shifts to buy the jeans.
Some of us reacted to this tweet by trying to figure out just how much these dang jeans cost and/or how poorly this girl is paid.
Meanwhile, Khloé was just like: WOW so cute!
"I'm so happy you enjoy them," she wrote in response to the fan.
People thought it was very interesting that Khloé, a millionaire, thinks it's "cute" that a fan has to spend most of her paycheck to get a pair of her jeans.
The annoyed replies to the tweet were immediate, and they just kept on coming.
People thought Khloé's tweet was tone-deaf and oblivious.
"She really said damn that's crazy," one person wrote.
And one person had a point: If you're going to interact with the tweet at all, why not maybe do something generous for this fan who's obviously a huge fan of your company?
However, some fans defended Khloé. They say there are cheaper jeans on the market, so this girl is making a choice to work 20 hours for a pair of Khloé's. And the "cute" response was just to promote how worthwhile her jeans are.
While the backlash to this tweet is still simmering, Khloé is facing yet more drama! This time, it's for posting an advertisement for Flat Tummy Tea meal replacement shakes — something the Kardashians do on a regular basis.
Actress and activist Jameela Jamil commented on the photo.
"If you’re too irresponsible to: a) own up to the fact that you have a personal trainer, nutritionist, probable chef, and a surgeon to achieve your aesthetic, rather than this laxative product… And b) tell them the side effects of this NON-FDA approved product, that most doctors are saying aren’t healthy," Jameela began. "Then I guess I have to."
She went on to list the side effects, including cramping, stomach pains, diarrhea, and dehydration.
Jameela's comment has over 160,000 likes. Khloé has not responded.
