The rapper is standing by the stunt as the fallout from Kanye West's Yeezy show, in which he and several models wore "White Lives Matter" shirts, fades. The message has been denounced by celebrities including Gigi Hadid, Jaden Smith, and Diddy, and now Khloé Kardashian has joined the conversation.
The reality star criticized her ex-brother-in-law for bringing up her well-known family in an apparent attempt to shift attention from the scandal. West lashed out at celebs, including Hadid, for not speaking out about the fact that he wasn't initially invited to his daughter Chicago's birthday in an Instagram post on Wednesday.

"So why did everyone feel so free to attack me about my t-shirt but Candace Owens was the only public figure to say that it was wrong for the Kardashians to keep me from seeing my daughter," he wrote. (Conservative pundit Owens was in attendance for Monday's presentation and also wore a "White Lives Matter" shirt.)
West continued, "Or we just chime in when we want to tear a Black man down for actually having a different political opinion. And for all audience so outraged about my t-shirt where were you when I couldn't see my kids ... I went public in hope of the public support at that time." Kardashian responded in the comments section when West publicly criticized her sister Kim's parenting.
"Ye, I love you. I don't want to do this on social media but YOU keep bringing it here. You are the father of my nieces and nephews and I'm trying to be respectful but please STOP tearing Kimberly down and using our family when you want to deflect," Khloé began, saying everyone knows the truth about "the birthday narrative."

"You know exactly where your children are at all times and YOU wanted separate birthdays. I have seen all of the texts to prove it. And when you changed your mind and wanted to attend, you came," she continued. "Like you have pointed out yourself, [Kim] is the one taking care of your kids 80% of the time. Please leave her and the family out of it so that the kids can be raised peacefully," the Good American co-founder wrote, adding she's "happy to continue this conversation privately if you wish.
"You are lying and are liars ..." West started off by asserting that the Kardashians had once again "basically kidnapped Chicago on her birthday." He insisted that the only reason he was able to get to the party was that Travis Scott, who has two kids with Kylie Jenner's youngest sister, gave him the address. "Also I should see my children 100% of the time but since there's a separation it should have been 50% of the time ..." the fashion designer added.
Kim filed for divorce in February 2021; she and West have four children together. The celebrities' journey to co-parenting has been rocky because the rapper frequently airs their dirty linen online.

In a Sept. 22 interview with Good Morning America, West apologised to Kim "for any stress that I have created, even in my frustration," and stated he had "new respect" for her. His most recent posts, however, go against what he said at the time. But he maintained by his claim that he always needs to "battle" to have a role in choices about their children.
Regarding West's posts or the "White Lives Matter" prank, Kim has not commented. A star's representative did not respond to a request for comment from Yahoo Entertainment.
But Kendall Jenner, her sister, responded deftly. West's Paris Fashion Week show had Jaden Smith in attendance, but he left early. He tweeted, "I had to dip. "I don't care who it is if I don't feel the message I'm out ... Black Lives Matter." Jenner liked the messages.
