Both Beckford and Kardashian got called out by Twitter and Instagram users for their comments. Beckford was scrutinized for bodyshaming the socialite. Kardashian was called homophobic for insinuating that Beckford is gay in her attempt to insult him. Kim’s sister, Khloe Kardashian, defended her sister to Extra, “I was with her when that was going on… what I hate is that people are saying that she is homophobic for that, but no one is saying that we shouldn’t also body shame women.” Khloe added, “people are attacking Kim about being homophobic. She is anything but.”

He posted two photos of himself showing off his muscles and captioned it, “Train 5-6 days a wk,weights Martial Arts and Firearms and I defend those who can’t defend themselves! I support LGBTQ, even though I’m not Gay. It’s just the Human thing to do.”
