KIM Kardashian has been mocked for her “failed” business venture as fans think she has “overestimated” her success after suspected low sales.
The Hulu star recently became the newest spokesperson for Alani energy drinks and released the flavor collab, Kimade by Kim.

A grocery store snapshot of The Kardashians star’s Alani display, fully stocked with cases of energy drinks, and complete with a cardboard cutout of Kim, 42, was posted on a Kardashians-dedicated Reddit board.
The post was sarcastically titled: “It’s flying off the shelves.”
The cutout featured a photo of a one-piece wearing Kim holding a pair of dumbbells next to an enlarged, nearly human-sized can of her Kimade beverage.
In the comment thread, one person wrote: “I think she overestimated her ability to sell this s**t.”
“How embarrassing, honestly,’ added another.
A third critic commented: “Nobody focused on fitness would or should want this stuff. It is a lot of caffeine. The marketing appears to be targeting women, likely young women, who supposedly want to look like Kim.”

They continued: “But to look like Kim, you would need way more ‘assistance’ than that caffeinated water.”
A fourth person speculated: “This stuff will most definitely, without a doubt, end up at Big Lots, Dollar General, Dollar Tree, and all the other places that get leftover crap nobody wants.
“It will be there, right next to all the old KenDULL and Kylie junk that you sell see at those places.”
While a fifth commenter claimed: “It’s just so ironic and comical to see her with the weights and that this is promoted as a health product when her body is all fake/surgically engineered and it looks so damn ridiculous in that cardboard cutout.”
Other Redditors choose to focus on the display itself and especially on the cardboard cutout of the Skims founder.
One person confessed: “Omg lol this is the worst display I could have even possibly imagined.”
“That cutout is absolutely terrifying,” commented another while a third argued: “The cardboard cutout is HILARIOUS omg.”
“The big head and the minuscule 4’ feet body,” added a fourth.
A fifth Redditor stated: “The teeniest tiniest weights I’ve ever seen.”
While a sixth person agreed, writing: “Those tiny 0.5 lb dumbbells in her hands are hilarious every time I see them.”
EYE-CATCHING CAMPAIGN
Earlier this week, Kim nearly busted out of a skimpy pink bikini in a new social media post as the Los Angeles native reposted an ad for her latest collaboration with the wellness brand, Alani Nutrition.
In her post shared on her Instagram Story, Kim had on a full face of makeup and flaunted her toned oiled-up body while wearing a teeny pink stringed bikini as she held onto a pink, Kimade can.
Kim stood in front of a pink background with water droplets falling down the wall.
The reality TV star also held onto a pink towel while sporting a matching colored headband and goggles.
“Keep your Kool,” was printed next to Kim.
Last month, Kim again showed off her curves in the tiny pink bathing suit for a sizzling new campaign.
The SKKN by Kim founder poured her Kimdade energy drink down her cleavage while posing for a shoot with Alani Nutrition.
Kim posed in a revealing pink two-piece, which she teamed with a pink hat and pink goggles.
The TV personality laughed as she trickled her new energy drink, Kimade, down her body in the steamy ad.
She later changed into a plunging white swimsuit and posed with dumbbell weights.
The mother of four also donned a skintight yellow bodysuit while straddling a motorcycle.
FULLY STOCKED
Around the same time, the mother of four proudly exhibited her fridge stocked with cans of nutritional drinks on her Instagram Stories.
Kim packed her fridge with cans of energy drinks from the health and wellness brand Alani Nutrition.
The 42-year-old TV star partnered with Alani to launch their limited edition flavor, strawberry lemonade.
In the video, Kim zoomed up on the pink Alani product to show the written logo: “Kimade, Alani by Kim K.”
The mom of four explained that “today was the day” that her collaborative project with Alani was rolling out.
She also admitted that she drank her new beverage “every day before her workout.”
Kim’s new collaboration comes amid rumors that she’s dating NFL legend Tom Brady.
In May, The U.S. Sun exclusively revealed that Kim and Tom, 45, had dinner after she reached out to him for property advice.
The media mogul has been on the hunt for a vacation property in an area where the athlete has a home, sources claimed.
An insider close to the very famous Kardashian sister told The U.S. Sun that she’s been “getting [vacation property] advice” from Tom.
The source said: “He set her up with a few places to look at and she came over [and] they did dinner.”
“She’s known him for a few years, not close or anything much but through her previous ex Reggie [Bush], but this year they have started to chat.
First, they connected when Kanye had included Tom in a rant last year, saying Kim should go marry him – and Kim reached out to apologize.
Last year, Tom left a comment on one of Kanye’s Instagram posts that made the Flashing Lights singer go on a rant about Kim’s then-love, Pete Davidson.
Tom commented: “Andreessen Horowitz,” with “100” emojis.
In response, Kanye said: “Tom Brady in the comments it’s up He must hate Skete tooooo Leave him aloooooone.”
Skete is what Kanye called Pete.
The source continued: “The [Instagram] chats started from there – then they moved to phone chatting… she’s saying just friends but there is a spark,” the source told The U.S. Sun.
