AceShowbiz - Khloe Kardashian has come under fire for her tone deaf response to a hard-working fan of her denim line on Twitter.
A user named Kaelynn Abner recently took to the social media site to share her excitement over the "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" personality's Good American denim line, in which garments can cost up to $189 (£143).
The potential customer gushed over the collection and suggested that she would have to work 20 extra hours in order to save up enough money to buy a piece from the brand.
"So I realised I have to work 20 hours in order to afford @khloekardashian jeans...and I'm in love with them," Kaelynn wrote, before adding: "Catch me picking up extra shifts."
Upon seeing the post, Khloe responded to the fan by calling her "cute".
"Awwwwww this is so cute!!!! I'm so happy you enjoy them," the 34-year-old tweeted.
Awwwwww this is so cute!!!! I’m so happy you enjoy them

The tweet soon garnered negative attention, as users flocked to the post to call out the businesswoman on her response to the message, calling the star "sick" and suggesting that she "needs a reality check."
"A millionaire thinks it's 'cute' that ppl (people) have to calculate & think how many hours they have to work to afford little things," wrote one user, while another remarked, "Not cute, Khloe. Not cute, at all. It's sad. Sad is the word you were looking for."
not to sound like a hater but this actually upsets me!! someone had to work a stupid amount of hours to afford ONE pair of jeans. A millionaire thinks it’s “cute” that ppl have to calculate & think how many hours they have to work to afford little things.

Elsewhere, a follower urged the fashion mogul to "give her a coupon code or a discount or something," and another chimed in that Khloe should "send her a whole box."

Good American was co-founded by Khloe and Emma Grede in October 2016, with the pair claiming to have achieved $1 million (£757,000) worth of sales on the first day of trading.
