Kim Kardashian slammed as she hangs out with Ivanka Trump despite Donald Trump's 'most overrated celebrity' comment
SIN CITY, LAS VEGAS: Kim Kardashian recently spent a glam night with her friend Ivanka Trump in the Sin City. The duo attended the grand opening of Groot Hospitality venues Komodo, Papi Steak, and Liv Las Vegas at the new luxury resort Fontainebleau Las Vegas.
The former first daughter donned a stunning strapless Monique Lhuillier gown with a silver-paneled skirt. Meanwhile, 'The Kardashians' star opted for a form-fitting black knit dress.
The reality star elevated her glam with a diamond choker necklace. Ivanka took to her Instagram Stories and shared photos with Kim from the event.
Alongside the photo, she penned in the caption, "Ladies night at LV!" In another snap from their night, Ivanka wrote, "It's always a great time with you @KimKardashian."
Ivanka and Kim's latest outing comes after former US president Donald Trump called Kim the "most overrated celebrity".
Trump aimed ABC journalist Jonathan Karl's book 'Tired of Winning' as he alleged that the former president asked the reality TV star to use her celebrity status to get football players to come to the White House.
Trump debunked the claim and called the accusation 'fake'. He said that the episode recounted in the book was inaccurate, suggesting that he did not need Kim's help to get football players in the Oval Office.
However, social media users slammed Kim for hanging out with Ivanka amid Trump's rant. A Reddit user wrote, "Didn’t Donald say some slick s**t about Kim?"
Another person responded, "He said she was the ‘most overrated celebrity’ lolol. Who’d kidding who, Kim probably loved the mention." Another critic noted, "They’re both daddy’s girls."
Another person noted, "I wouldn’t expect anything different from Kimberly." Another internet user penned, "This friendship is NOT a surprise! Both women were born into privilege and have a tone of money! Both are terrible people too😂😂."

Donald Trump hangs up on Kim Kardashian over help in clemency case
'The Kardashian' star Kim Kardashian reportedly asked former president Donald Trump for his help in clemency case. However, Trump allegedly hung up on Kim.
ABC News journalist Jonathan Karl claimed in his memoir that Trump thought she voted for Joe Biden in the 2020 election and that's why he hung up on her.
Kim was hoping for Trump to publicly endorse a clemency plea but, according to Karl, Trump essentially told her, "Hell no" and "You voted for Biden and now you come asking me for a favor?" despite the reality star never publicly stating who she voted for.
