Ads about fitness supplements are usually eye-rollingly unrealistic, but one particular ad for Protein World prompted a slew of complaints.

The poster showed reality star Khloe Kardashian wearing a leotard with the caption 'Can you keep up with a Kardashian? Take The Protein World 30 Day Challenge.'

The ad has been cleared for use after people complained that it was irresponsible and promoted competitive dieting. 

The Advertising Standards Authority received 14 complaints and the ad was heavily criticised across social media.

Others felt that Khloe has been unrealistically photoshopped.

'People taking the Tube should not have to be bombarded with adverts that imply their bodies aren’t good enough,' Green Assembly member Caroline Russell told The Evening Standard.

'Young people receive this negative message from enough social media channels and it’s appalling that this is being reinforced on Tube platforms, against the Mayor’s own policy, when people are taking trips to school, to work, or going out to socialise,' referring to another Protein World ad which was banned for asking commuters: 'Are you beach body ready?' 

'We considered that the ads promoted Khloe Kardashian's body image as desirable and aspirational; this was supported by her pose and the airbrushed style,' said the ASA. 

'However, we did not consider that she appeared to be out of proportion or unhealthy.'

In the past 24 hours, I've seen three celebrities being body-shamed online… and I just don't get it.

Why is this still happening? Why do people still feel the need to comment on a woman's weight?

Honestly, I don't have the answers.

In a recent article on Cosmo, alleged emails from Dr. Luke were leaked where he was complaining about Kesha's weight, and said he'd be better off if she was a machine and he could do whatever he wanted with her.

He wrote: "We were having a discussion on how she can be more disciplined with her diet. There have been many times we have all witnessed her breaking her diet plan. This particular time – it happened to be diet coke and turkey while on an all juice fast."

Kesha's manager, Monica Corina, replied that the singer is "a human not a machine," to which Dr. Luke responded, "if she were a machine that would be way cool and we could do whatever we want."

I get that Kesha is in an industry where a lot of emphasis is put on how she looks but, give her a break. If she wants to eat turkey, let her eat fecking turkey.

In case Dr. Luke hadn't noticed, the world is fighting against the idea of 'perfection' – women come in all shapes and sizes, and they're all beautiful.

Look at Ashley Graham, who just walked for Michael Kors at New York Fashion Week. 

Being the first plus-size model to grace the designer's runway; she was celebrated and applauded for staying true to herself and not succumbing to what people like Dr. Luke think is 'the perfect size'. And fair play to her – it's the way we should celebrate every woman.

However, on the flipside, former model, Tara Reid, was blasted online for looking "too skinny" yesterday.

The model shared an innocent photo on Instagram of her holding her dog, who sadly passed away, but instead of people offering support, they focused on Tara's weight.

"No one is naturally that skinny, it doesn't look great and it's very ageing," wrote one user, while another quipped, "if she was my friend, I'd insist on her getting help."

Why do people, who don't even know this woman, feel the need to comment on her weight?

Are they doctors? Nutritionists? NO. They're not even her friends.

 

A post shared by Tara Reid (@tarareid) on

We need to realise that some people are skinny and some people carry a few extra inches – and that's all OK. 

Another celebrity to be caught up in an online body-shaming torrent was controversially, Khloe Kardashian.

She was recently made an ambassador for Protein World, and her ad campaign suffered backlash, as people said it made women have "low self-esteem."

But, why? It seems like no matter what your body shape, people have a problem with it. Yes, it's air brushed (as all campaigns are) but, Khloe has curves, and she celebrates them. Yet, people say it's unrealistic.

Maybe it is, but if you exercise and eat well – is your goal not to be toned up? Just like it was Khloe's goal three years ago? She achieved it, and people are still condemning her for it.

 

A post shared by Protein World (@proteinworld) on

She's been extremely vocal about being healthy, but maintaining her shape, so why are people so offended?

Whether you're big, small, short, or tall – everyone has a different body type. EVERYONE.

Why can't we get our heads around that? Why is commenting on people's weight still a thing? Why was it ever a thing? And, really, why can't we just get past it?

We all need to build a body-shaming bridge and get over it.

Three years after they split, Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom were finally granted a divorce, which became official back in December.

The 32-year-old is officially no longer an Odom, and has had a name change to reflect this. 

To ring in her official return to singledom, Khloe's assistants went above and beyond with a sweet celebratory treat.

Khloe was presented with a huge cake, emblazoned with her new identification card, to celebrate dropping Odom from her surname.

"You guys, look what Khloé’s assistants got for her because she got a new passport without her old last name. It’s her new last name,” said sister Kim, who Snapchatted the entire thing (naturally). 

The cake came complete with the slogan "Happy Name Change," written in frosting. 

Some personal details on the cake have been changed to reflect her official separation, such as the address reading "13 Freedom Lane."

Khloe's weight loss journey is also mentioned, with the term "skinny b****" in the weight description.

While a name change may seem simple to most people, after Khloe's long, painful and dragged out divorce we'd probably want some cake too.

And in typical Kardashian style, the moment could not go by uncelebrated.

We hope Khloe finds happiness with current beau, NBA player Tristan Thompson.

Lamar Odom and Khloe Kardashian just finalised their divorce in December, but it seems that Lamar is regretting his choice.

Appearing on talk show The Doctors, Lamar was asked: "Going forward, when you look at your life ahead of you, what are you looking forward to?”

"“Umm, honestly, I want my wife back,” he responded after a pause. 

The former NBA player just completed a month long stint in a rehabilitation centre, which is why he was appearing on the show.

The 37-year-old is set to discuss his life after rehab, and clearly he wants Khloe to be part of it.

Looks like that whole Revenge Body thing is working, Koko.

The pair tied the knot in 2009, but split almost four years ago, amid rumours that the basketball player had cheated on his wife.

The divorce was delayed after Lamar fell into a coma after an alleged drug overdose in a Nevada brothel. 

The two have remained friends, with the two a attending Kanye West show together and Khloe seeing over Lamar's hospital recovery.

Of all the Kardashian sisters, Khloé is probably the most candid, so we've been waiting with bated breath for her to appear on James Corden's Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts,

But, surprisingly enough, it wasn't actually Khloé who dropped the biggest secrets this time around.

After being asked to reveal who he considered the rudest celebrity, James admitted that our very own Pierce Brosnan was far from gentlemanly after bumping into him at a U2 concert.

After explaining that Pierce left the venue, James revealed that he and the people he was with attempted to move into that space before being removed by the Irish star.

"And literally, I've never felt anything like it. This arm went on here and just pushed me out of the way," James admitted.

Oh, and when Khloé decided to defend him? James was having none of it…

According to insiders, even though Khloe is only a few months into the relationship, she wants to offer a helping hand in whatever way she can.

A source told Entertainment Tonight that even though she's "embarrassed," the blonde beauty is totally supportive.

"She's a little embarrassed that her boyfriend is having a baby with someone else, but it happened before she hooked up with Tristan.

"She wants him to be a responsible dad, but she wants to keep it all on the down low."

Khloe's divorce with Lamar Odom was only finalised last week, after three years of separation. Following the announcement of the finalisation, Lamar checked himself into rehab.

If anyone knows what it's like to have her body scrutinised, it's Khloé Kardashian.

The 32-year-old has spent much of her career fending off criticism about her appearance while her older sisters basked in praise heaped upon them by the public.

And while Khloé has no doubt shown her critics what she's made of by embarking upon (and maintaining) an admirably healthy lifestyle in recent years, she hasn't heard the end of the comparisons.

Speaking to Health magazine for its January issue, the reality star explained that even those employed to help guide her have made reference to the differences between herself and her siblings.

"The nutritionist was like, 'Kim has a body like a Ferrari, and you have a body like a Honda.' I was like, 'Yep, that sounds about right." Khloe told the publication.

"Kim can eat anything, and I'm like, 'I hate you,' Khloé added. "That's my life – you just summed it up right there.'"

And if that wasn't enough to contend with, Khloé revealed that her success on the health and fitness front wasn't enough for some people.

"Some people were like, 'It took you so long to lose weight,' Khloe explains. "And I'm like, 'I've been fat or out of shape my whole life. It's gonna take time to reprogram my body.'"

Damned if she does, damned if she doesn't.

Now a source has revealed that the NBA player is set to star in a reality TV show of his own next year.

The show is set to focus on his struggle with substance abouse and how he comes with recovering from these addiction issues. We're sure his relationship with Khloe will also make an appearence. 

“The show will be about his life, recovery — all about him,” a source told People.

The basketball player checked into rehab on Tuesday, exactly one year since he almost died of an overdose of pills, cocaine and alcohol in a Nevada brothel.

“Lamar checked into rehab a week ago. He plans to stay for 30 days. It’s a substance abuse program, but he was not abusing drugs when he went in. He is clean," said the insider.

The pair waived support, but are splitting their assets from ventures such as their production company, Khlomar.

Khloe and Lamar tied the knot in 2009, but in 2013, rumours emerged that Lamar cheated on his wife, and subsequently, Khloe split from him.

Later that year, she filed for divorce. However, the reality star withdrew her divorce petition in 2015, after the basketball player was found unconscious in a brothel in Nevada.

Lamar was in a coma for four days, and Khloe decided to stop the proceedings so she could care and make medical decisions for her estranged husband.

When Lamar recovered, Khloe re-filed for divorce in May of this year.

Khloe Kardashian has lashed out at a fan who commented on Good American factory. 

The reality TV star took her Snapchat followers on a virtual tour of the LA-based facility, showing the various methods used in the production of her new denim line.

The star was accompanied by a full camera crew, despite filming for Keeping up with the Kardashians being postponed until after the new year. 

One fan took to Twtter after watching the videos to say: "By the looks of @khloekardashian Snapchat, she's got a sweat shop working on her jeans."

Khloe quickly clapped back, saying "watch your mouth" after the accusation was made.

"It means a lot to me to fight to make my denim in the US and to be employing good wages to all of my hardworking employees!" she said in another tweet. 

The fan has since been bombarded with tweets from other users accusing her of jealously. She later apologised to the star via social media. 

Others were also quick to defend the reality TV star, saying: "This doesn't look like a sweatshop. It looks like a textile factory. That's what it looks like when people make your clothing. Stop being ignorant."

The reality star launched her Good American denim line last month, and just like little sister Kylie's lip kits, they've been flying off the shelves.

Kylie Jenner aside, the Kardashian sister which has undergone the biggest transformation in recent years is undoubtedly Khloé.

Having been branded the 'ugly, fat sister' countless times over the course of her life, our favourite Kardashian sister decided to channel other people's negativity into something positive for herself.

And hell, it worked.

And now, the 32-year-old is eager to help others who have endured the same physical and emotional struggles she went through while in the glare of the media spotlight.

In a spin-off from Keeping Up With the Kardashians, Khloé will be seen helping members of the public to overhaul their lifestyles, and she is pumped.

Taking to Twitter earlier today, Khloé could barely contain her excitement over her new show, tweeting: "I have worked soooo hard on Revenge Body!."

"I can't wait for you guys to meet these amazing people! Their journeys are incredible! Proud!" she added.

And here is the sneak peek we've all been waiting for.
