Ashley Graham Slammed for Helping Models Lose Weight on Khloé Kardashian’s ‘Revenge Body’
Ashley Graham made a guest appearance on Sunday’s episode of Khloé Kardashian‘s weight-loss show, “Revenge Body,” but for many fans, the news wasn’t happy. The 30-year-old model and body-positivity activist is being slammed for encouraging contestants, including one aspiring model, to lose weight and participating in a show that suggests weight loss as the “ultimate revenge.”

After the episode aired, critics lashed out at Graham for contradicting her body-positive brand and appearing on a show that equates a “better body” to “happiness.” “Why would you support a show that promotes a better body equating happiness?” one user commented on her Instagram. “You’re supposed to be a role model for people that don’t fit the societal constructs of beauty, yet here you are promoting conforming to the standards as a way to seek revenge.”
Though Graham’s appearance also featured her spreading body confidence to Kelsey Rose, an aspiring model who stopped working after she gained weight following a car accident, critics still considered her complicit in the show’s body-shaming themes.
