Kim Kardashian under fire for using R-Word

Kim Kardashian West faces negative reactions for making an offensive remark on Instagram.

Kardashian West, 37, criticized her other revelers for failing to recognize that she and her best friend Jonathan Cheban were dressed in Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee.

"Ok guys, we're Pam Anderson and Tommy Lee," she said in a video posted on her Instagram story. "Nobody knows who we are here! You are too young. It's so sad. "

In another video, Kardashian West filmed a friend (and former badistant), Stephanie Shepherd, complimenting the ceremony, noting that almost no one else had identified the costume.

"Nobody knows who I am. Yeah! Delayed, she said.

"It was a really useless use of the delayed word," added another tweet. "I think we should all know and do better now. It breaks my heart and makes me angry when I hear that word, knowing the pain it carries. "

Kardashian West deleted the video on Thursday morning and apologized.

"I try to learn from my mistakes and it's one of those moments. Know that my intention is always pure and that, in this case, it was a mistake. I'm sorry, "she said in a statement. WE.

She is not the first member of the famous family to be surprised by using this word obsolete and offensive. In July, sister Khloé Kardashian was criticized for using it during an Instagram livestream. She later apologized after a fan advised her to "pay more attention" to her use of the language.

"Ugh I hate that word! Why did I even say that? She tweeted. "You're right about a million dollars and I really do not like it much when people use that word! I will do better! I am sorry! a lot of love today. "
