Kim Kardashian’s look at the 2019 Met Gala received some backlash, it was not her dress that caught everyone’s attention but it was her tiny waist which looked extremely smaller.
Social media user didn’t leave a chance to criticize her body while some other people praised her.
“Omg, what is wrong her body.. so disproportionate… too much surgery,” one Instagram user commented on a photo Kardashian West posted from the event.
“I wish @KimKardashian would use her platform to speak on things like body positivity but she keeps making her waist unrealistically narrow and her ass unrealistically big. It’s disgusting and gross and why would you even?” another wrote on Twitter.
The online controversy provoked Kardashian West’s fitness coach, Melissa Alcantara, to say something evidently, that itty-bitty abdomen isn’t as fake as it appears. As indicated by Alcantara, the cosmetics investor buckled down for that hourglass shape.
“To make things clear 1.this dress is corseted BUT 2. Kim trains her ass off 6 days a f***** week, she wakes up early af and is dedicated,” Alcantara wrote in a since-deleted Instagram Story. “3. I paved the road for her but SHE did the work! I love the compliments either way.”
“MOST IMPORTANTLY,” she continued, “I don’t give a s*** about your opinions on her body if you think she is fake or not! I see her every morning, I see her train and I see her sweat and I see all the work that she does outside of the gym and THAT is commendable!”
Kim didn’t just hit the gym, either. According to her app, she began the “Sunfare Optimal Cleanse” two weeks before the red carpet.
“Right now, I’m on the third day of my 10-day Sunfare Optimal Cleanse! I’m SO excited to do this, you guys, but I definitely need to mentally prepare, lol.
I have the Met Gala coming up and I’ve worked so hard working out, but I started eating a lot of sweets and I wanted to just change my food patterns to eat healthier and cut sugar out of my life as much as I can.
We always have sweets around and it’s really hard when there are temptations everywhere.”
Kardashian West pursued a similar 10-day detox—devouring, for the most part, shakes and incidental supplement rich strong dinners, similar to salmon servings of mixed greens and romaine lettuce chicken containers—to shed pounds preceding a year ago’s Met Gala as well.
“Your stomach might get pushed up beyond the diaphragm, which could cause reflux,” says Dr Apovian. “If you’re wearing one and you experience those symptoms, that’s a definite sign that you need to loosen it or take it off.”
