You can either love or hate the Kardashian clan but you can’t possibly ignore them. After all, the dramatic Kardashian-Jenner sisters are literally everywhere. So, in yet another enticing episode of keeping up with the reality TV stars, Kim Kardashian is facing flak for wearing a Maang Tika. AGAIN!
Remember how last year she had worn a Maang Tika, a traditional Indian head accessory to church? Well, people had accused her of ‘cultural appropriation’ back then. However, Kim shared an image of herself wearing gold bangles and a gold Maang tika, reports News18.
Kim wore a colour-block grey outfit and paired it with the Indian accessories. Her mismatched outfit was not well received by several people from around the globe. Individuals accused her of ‘cultural appropriation’ once again and wondered why she doesn’t learn from her past mistakes.
Many people slammed Kim online:
Culture vulture appropriating everything she sees, how very cute of you 😍

I've never seen black fishing and appropriating an entire different culture in a same pic by same person…
A new low.
