‘Laughable irony’ Piers Morgan fumes at Kim Kardashian’s ‘get your a** up and work’ remark | Celebrity News | Showbiz & TV
Piers Morgan, 56, has taken to his column in The Sun to brand Kim Kardashian, 41, a hypocrite for her recent comments. He also blasted the bitter ongoing public drama between Kim’s ex-husband, Kanye West, 44, and current boyfriend Pete Davison, 28, as highly “insensitive” given the conflict in Ukraine.
The 56-year-old journalist and television presenter took offence after the American reality television star was asked by Variety to share her tips for businesswomen, to which she replied: “Get your a** up and work”.
She added: “It seems like nobody wants to work these days.”
Kim’s comments sparked a backlash, especially on Twitter.
The former Good Morning Britain presenter said: “Putting aside the laughable irony of a woman born to huge wealth and privilege, who literally made her name from a sex tape involving extensive footage of her naked a**, and who now rakes in millions by having TV cameras follow her and her dimwit family around 24/7 as they lead their vacuous lives, lecturing anyone about what it means to do a real job, my mind went to the extraordinary women of Ukraine.”

The Talk TV star has also said that the “self-absorbed” celebrity drama which has ensued following Kim and Kaye’s split in 2021 “makes me want to physically puke”.
He also labelled the trio as “three supremely rich, famous, entitled imbeciles.”
Piers Morgan’s thoughts are with Ukranians following the Russian invasion of the country last month and he has hit back at the ”selfish” and “insensitive” actions of Kim, Kanye and Pete.
He compared their “headline-grabbing manner” to the celebrity cover of Imagine; a video which went viral after it was released in March 2020.
Kim and Kanye share four children: North, Psalm, Chicago and Saint.
Kanye has also claimed that he hasn’t been ‘allowed’ to see his children.
Most recently, Pete sent Kanye a text message urging him to “calm down”.
However, this escalated when Kanye asked Pete where he was and Pete replied with a shirtless selfie and the message: “In bed with your wife.”
Kim hasn’t been involved much while Pete and Kanye continue the feud, but she commented on a post of Kanye’s when he said he wasn’t allowed to see his daughter.
She commented: “Please stop with this narrative, you were just here this morning picking up the kids for school.”
Last month, Piers admitted to booing Kanye West at the Super Bowl.
In his New York Post column, Piers branded Kanye a “d***head” and Pete a “loser”.
