Online trolls have always criticized Khloe Kardashian for photoshopping her legs and she has, most of the time, owned up to it. On Monday Khloe took to her website khloewithak.com to explain why she tends to Photoshop that one leg. She explained that she has to have reconstructive surgery done on that leg due to the car accident she had when she was only 16-years-old.
She titled the entry, ‘Why I Photoshopped This Picture. She wrote:
‘Whenever I post a picture of my legs on Instagram, everyone comments on how fu**ed up my knees look. ‘It’s because I’ve had reconstructive surgery, you a**holes!’ ‘My right leg is an inch and a half thinner than my left because my muscles deteriorated and never recovered.
‘It’s funny because everyone made a big stink about this Instagram photo because I Photoshopped it. Yes, I did Photoshop it, but I was trying to make my thinner leg look bigger to match my other leg!!! ‘All I want are big, thick thighs and I hate how skinny my legs are.’
‘The reason I’ve had so many of these surgeries and always wear a knee brace for my workouts is because I was in a car accident when I was 16.’
She continued:
‘To this day, I remember the exact streets (Ventura Blvd. and Coldwater Canyon). ‘I was speeding and the other car ran a stop sign. I was wearing my seatbelt but the strap was under my armpit. ‘I was in a small Mercedes and it compacted in the wreck. My head and upper body went through the windshield and my legs were stuck under the steering wheel.’
‘I still remember hitting the other car, feeling the car spinning, and hitting a pole. ‘I was on crutches for six months and had a leg brace that went from my ankle to my upper thigh. I had a neck brace, burns all over my body and had to take showers sitting in a chair.’
She said her best friends, twins- ‘Malika and Khadijah were there for her.
She added:
‘Malika and Khadijah would literally help me shower. They also did my hair so that I wouldn’t have to wash it as often. That’s how I first started wearing cornrows!’
‘I had knee surgery the day of my accident and a couple more after that. Lord, help me! So next time you see me in a knee brace, you know why!’
