Khlo\u00e9 Kardashian<\/strong> is taking heat for her nostalgic Halloween costume!<\/p>\n On Tuesday, The Kardashians<\/em> star showed off her look for this spooky season — and it turns out it really DID spook a ton of her fans! But not for why you might think!<\/p>\n This year, the reality star went as a Bratz<\/strong> doll, wearing a yellow patterned mini dress with a white shirt underneath and carrying a matching handbag featuring the brand’s logo. Unfortunately, it wasn’t her costume that had fans spooked! It was the apparent color of her skin!<\/p>\n Many fans are now calling her out for \u201cblackfishing\u201d–\u00a0 a term used to describe people who use makeup, excessive tanning, or other means to appear Black or mixed race — after noticing her skin color appeared \u201cten times darker\u201d than normal. Oof. Dozens of critics slid into her IG comments, complaining:<\/p>\n “Why is she three shades darker than usual?\u201d<\/p>\n “Black fishing periodddd”<\/p>\n “You were black for Halloween? ”<\/p>\n “y\u2019all love doing black face smh”<\/p>\n “Girl who the hell is this, you\u2019re not even recognizable.\u201d<\/p>\n “I don\u2019t recognize Khloe”<\/p>\n Meanwhile, there were some fans sticking up for the Good American<\/strong> founder, reminding folks it’s “literally a costume.\u201d But, um, is that really an excuse for “blackfishing”?!? We don’t think so!<\/p>\n See what all the hype is about and compare KoKo’s look to her everyday appearance (below):<\/p>\n https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CzEyZaePdT2\/<\/p>\n A post shared by Khloe\u0301 Kardashian (@khloekardashian)<\/p>\n A post shared by Khloe\u0301 Kardashian (@khloekardashian)<\/p>\n Hmm…<\/p>\n Interestingly, the 39-year-old was actually part of a group costume with Kim<\/strong> Kardashian<\/strong> and friends Olivia Pierson<\/strong> and Natalie Halcro<\/strong>, and none of them are receiving backlash. Still, it shouldn’t really be too surprising that some fans weren’t going to love the Bratz costumes since Kylie Jenner<\/strong> was totally roasted for \u201cblackfishing\u201d back in August when announcing her new limited-edition Bratz doll collection, with fans saying at the time:<\/p>\n “The fact that the Kylie Bratz dolls are brown are weird asf. That girl is white asf.\u201d<\/p>\n “Giving Kylie (a white woman who modeled her face\/body around Black women) her own Bratz doll (which is an arguably more Urban\/Black presenting doll) before an ACTUAL Black woman is\u2026 weird”<\/p>\n “Kylie Jenner is a sicko lmaooo sis literally skimmed off the top of the entire Black girl aesthetic and is getting a BRATZ collection that\u2019s not even based off her natural features”<\/p>\n Yeah, so, Khlo\u00e9 should’ve seen these critiques coming! But what do U think, Perezcious readers? Do you think she changed her skin tone for the costume?! Sound OFF (below)!<\/p>\n\n
