Fans are not impressed after Khloe Kardashian asked where she could find a biracial doll.
Khloe Kardashian has had both an incredible and terrible year at the same time. She had a baby with Tristan Thompson but her experience was ruined when she found out that Tristan had been cheating on her with several women. To make matters worse, this all went down a week before she was due to give birth. The two appear to be working through their issues and building a family with Khloe rumored to want a second baby soon. She’s had to deal with some major backlash after she chose to stick with her basketball boyfriend and now, she’s getting dragged all over social media for a recent tweet.
After tweeting that she’s having trouble finding an appropriate baby doll for her daughter True, she asked her supporters if they knew where she could find a “sweet looking” biracial doll. Of course, some Twitter users were up in arms over the comment, asking her if she meant to say “light-skinned.” Some people are writing that Khloe was just too afraid to say that she’s looking for a “light-skinned doll with good hair” and others actually offered valid suggestions. A number of folks told her to just get a black doll, explaining that since her daughter is black, it would make sense.
Khloe has received backlash for similar remarks about her daughter and race. It’s one of those things where if she’s damned if she do or damned if she doesn’t. If Khloe Kardashian tweeted “where can I find a black doll?” everyone would be up in arms as well. Peep the tweet and responses below. What do you guys think?
Anyone know what brand makes a sweet looking biracial baby doll? Nothing too life like. Those silicone babies really freak me out! Some look so real and some look 🤦🏼♀️

What do ✌🏾biracial✌🏾 dolls look like? We have black dolls already. Is the description you’re looking for, ‘light skinned’? Because you could just say that.

Your daughter is black, honey. Black people come in all different shades. I'm sure you an find a doll for True without looking specifically for a "biracial" one. https://t.co/iAbbk3ddU3

Catch these undertones… "sweet looking biracial baby doll" Because the reg. black dolls look angry. And bc there are no dark complexioned biracial children. Whew the ignorance and micro aggressions. "light-skinned with curly hair" is what she meant. 🗣🚮 https://t.co/rEKN2JGlbe
