Lili Reinhart slams starving Kim Kardashian over Met Gala 2022

Lili Reinhart slams ‘starving’ Kim Kardashian over Met Gala 2022 diet

There’s nothing gilded or glamorous about starving yourself.

Lili Reinhart slammed Kim Kardashian for the extreme diet the reality star wore in Marilyn Monroe’s dress for the 2022 Met Gala.

“Walking a red carpet and doing an interview where you say how hungry you are…because you haven’t eaten carbs in the last month…anything to fit in a frigging dress?” Reinhart, 25, wrote on Tuesday in her Instagram story. “So wrong. So f–ked on 100 levels.”

The Riverdale star, who didn’t name Kardashian, added that it’s “disgusting” for celebrities to admit they’re “starving” themselves given how many people idolize them.

“To admit frankly that you starved yourself for the Met Gala. When you know full well that millions of young men and women look up to you and listen to your every word. The ignorance is otherworldly gross,” she wrote.

Reinhart’s statement came just a day after Kardashian, 41, told Vogue that she lost 16 pounds in less than a month to squeeze into the iconic dress Monroe wore to say “Happy Birthday” to John F. Kennedy in 1962 ” to sing.

“It was like preparing for a role,” said the Kardashians star.

After the big event, Kardashian shared a video of an endless buffet of donuts and pizza and admitted she was excited because she was “starving” and hadn’t eaten carbs or sugar in almost a month.

Ahead of the Met Gala, where the dress code was Gilded Glamour, the Skims founder also took to social media to share that she’s doing two workouts a day to lose weight.

Kardashian wore Monroe’s dress from Ripley’s Believe It or Not! Museum that acquired Jean Louis-designed “World’s Most Expensive Dress” in 2016 for $4.8 million. Therefore, Ripley’s did not allow Kardashian to change the dress, which caused her to change through extreme dieting and exercise.

Always taking fashion to the next level, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians graduate has practiced corset training and breathing classes to accentuate her tiny waist in her 2019 Met Gala dress by Thierry Mugler.

For her part, Reinhart has been open about suffering from body dysmorphia, saying in 2018, “I feel really discouraged by the fact that so many people are saying, ‘You’re skinny so shut up hugging you [sic] your body.

“Like my body dysmorphia is irrelevant to some people because of my looks. I’m either not curvy enough or not skinny enough to feel insecure.”

Coincidentally, Reinhart’s statement at the time came after a troll criticized her for being inspired by Monroe’s curvy figure because she felt like her body was accepted.

When a Twitter user suggested the ‘Hustlers’ star was skinny so he didn’t need to worry, Reinhart snapped back, “Telling someone they don’t deserve to feel insecure because their body is ‘fine’ or ‘just like’ the other person…is wrong.” That’s part of the problem. That’s part of body shaming.”
