Kim Kardashian, the 43-year-old reality TV star, recently made headlines as she was spotted courtside at a Lakers game with her eight-year-old son, Saint.
The mother-son duo attended the game on Tuesday night, coinciding with Saint's birthday, as he is known to be a passionate sports fan, donning a Lakers jersey with the iconic Number 23, paying homage to basketball superstar LeBron James.
Kim Kardashian takes son to Lakers game and fans criticize her behavior
Kim Kardashian, founder of the fashion brand Skims, made a statement with her all-black ensemble, featuring a tight, low-cut top that accentuated her cleavage. Adding a touch of glamour to her outfit, she carried a distinctive silver rhinestone bag shaped like a high heel, deviating from the conventional rectangular purse.
Why did fans react poorly?
However, the celebrity's presence at the game stirred a mixed reaction among fans, with some expressing frustration at her seemingly disinterested demeanor. Comments on X (formerly Twitter) ranged from annoyance at her apparent boredom to criticism for being engrossed in her phone rather than cheering for the Lakers.
"Kim Kardashian's stupid annoying a** being courtside looking bored as f**k is pissing me off," were the thoughts of one fan.
Despite the negative feedback, there were others who were star-struck by Kim Kardashian's attendance, sharing videos of her and Saint waving at the game. Some fans expressed their desire for her to attend more Lakers games throughout the season, while others offered to save her a seat.
The Lakers game coincided with Saint's birthday celebration on December 5, and Kim's surprise appearance at the event added to the festivities. Kris Jenner, the Kar-Jenner matriarch, took to Instagram Stories to extend birthday wishes to her grandson.
She shared a carousel of photos, showcasing moments from Saint's life, from his baby years to toddlerhood, expressing admiration for his growing smile, spirit, and heart.
Kim Kardashian, known for traveling the world with Saint to attend professional soccer games, continues to balance her high-profile lifestyle with family celebrations and public appearances, captivating the attention of fans and critics alike.
