Having practically sparked off a full-scale international crisis, Kim Kardashian has had to apologise to the people of India for saying she hates their cuisine.
The reality star made the comments on her TV show in the US last night, and took to her official site a short time later following a Twitter backlash to say sorry for offending anyone, and also to explain herself. In her statement she said her sentiments on Indian cuisine were in no way a reflection of her feelings about the country:
"I said that I thought Indian food was disgusting. In NO way was this intended as an insult to the Indian people or their culture” said Kim digging herself into a deeper hole.
She then added that food from her own Armenian background leaves her equally disgusted.
“This is just my own personal taste. There are definitely some Armenian foods that I personally find disgusting, but that doesn't reflect my opinions on other Armenian people or my culture."
So there you have it; Kim Kardashian is not a racist just unadventurous with her food.
