Kardashian fans slam Kim for ‘scripted’ apology about ‘tone deaf’ quote on ‘women not working hard’ during ABC special
FANS have slammed Kim Kardashian's apology for her controversial comments on work as "scripted".
The reality star previously told women to "get your f**king a** up and work" during an interview with Variety.
Following the lengthy backlash, the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum, 41, responded by trying to explain the comment.
During The Kardashians - An ABC News Special, she told host Robin Roberts: "It wasn't a blanket statement towards women or to feel like I don't respect the work or think that they don't work hard. I know that they do.
"It was taken out of context, but I'm really sorry if it was received that way."
However, fans weren't satisfied with the billionaire's apology.

On Twitter, one wrote: "Don't try to back peddle... you said what you said, now stand in it. Keep that wack scripted apology."
Another agreed: "I find it really hard to see Kim Kardashian's apology on The Kardashians as genuine. It’s very scripted."
A third added: "Kim you said what you said… stop pretending you didn’t."
THE CONTROVERSY
The backlash began when Kim and her sisters Khloe, 37, and Kourtney, 42, as well as their mom Kris Jenner, 66, spoke to about their new Hulu show and a number of other topics.
While on the set of the cover photo shoot, Kim shared advice for women that want to succeed in business.
The 41-year-old said: “I have the best advice for women in business. Get your f**king a** up and work.”
Kim continued: “It seems like nobody wants to work these days.”
