Kim K dropped the gloves on August 16, calling Katie a “fake media friend” after the talk show host sent her a baby present. But it didn’t take long for Katie to respond — so is she firing back or quivering in her boots?
Is Katie Couric trying to do damage control after Kim Kardashian threw down the gauntlet and put her on blast for saying she didn’t “understand” why the Kardashians are famous in a recent interview?Katie Couric: I Didn’t Mean To Hurt Kim Kardashian’s Feelings
It certainly sounds like it. On August 16, Kim went hard at Katie (like seriously, Kim’s never been this vicious) by posting a picture of a gift Katie had sent her on Instagram along with the caption, “#IHateFakeMediaFriends #MayIHumblySuggestYouNotSendGiftsThenTalkS**t.” Now Katie is picking up the pieces, and she seems a little scared doing it!“I’ve met before and I think she’s a really sweet person,” Katie said in a statement according to TMZ. “I was responding to a reporter’s question, and explaining how I’m intrigued by the public’s fascination with her family.”
“I didn’t mean to hurt her feelings,” Katie added. “The gift is genuine, and I’m happy for Kim and Kanye.” Something tells us Kim and Kanye West still won’t be inviting Katie to North West’s first birthday party.
The Kardashians Fight Back
They might have to change the name of Kim’s show from Keeping Up With The Kardashians to Don’t Mess With The Kardashians. Katie isn’t the first big star to get called out by the Kardashians — even President Barack Obama has felt the wrath!After Obama criticized Kim and Kanye as role models in a recent interview with Amazon Kindle Singles, Kris Jenner came right back with guns blazing. ”I bet the President has some friends with 10,000 square foot houses and that you wouldn’t mind going over there, Mr. President, while you were asking them to have a party for you when you were campaigning for dollars to run for president,” the momager said on her show, Kris, on August 12.
The Kardashians are on top of the world right now, and they won’t let anyone knock them down.
What do you think about Katie’s response, HollywoodLifers? Do you think Kim will accept the “apology”? Let us know!
