Celebrities face backlash for alleged water waste amid ongoing LA wildfires
Los Angeles: The wildfires are causing quite a stir, and not just because of the flames. Celebrities, including Kim Kardashian, are under fire for supposedly wasting water.
People are really upset, claiming these stars are acting entitled while the rest of us are trying to conserve. Kim, who has a massive property, has been accused of using way more water than allowed.
Back in 2022, LA set some strict rules about watering gardens. Residents could only water twice a week for eight minutes. But it seems some celebs didn’t get the memo and kept using water like it was going out of style.
With the wildfires raging, every drop counts. Neighbors are calling out these stars for ignoring the rules, saying they could afford the fines while others are struggling.
Kim’s had her share of fines before for overusing water. She was hit with a hefty bill for using 232,000 gallons more than she should have. Other celebs like Sylvester Stallone and Kevin Hart have also faced penalties.
Meanwhile, Kim’s sister, Khloe, is stirring the pot too. She’s been vocal about her frustrations with LA’s leadership during this crisis, calling out Mayor Bass on social media.
Khloe backed Fire Chief Kirstin Crowley, who criticized the city for not doing enough to help those affected by the fires. It’s a tough situation, and emotions are running high.
Sadly, the wildfires have taken a toll, with the death count now at 16. The situation is serious, and it’s clear that everyone needs to step up and do their part.
