Kim, 41, is facing backlash after posting a photo of what fans believe is her lush green grass amid a severe drought in Los Angeles.

The snap was reposted on Reddit, where the SKKN mogul was slammed repeatedly for being careless.

“That’s why her water bill is so high,” one user wrote.

Another wrote: “Damn as a Southern Californian surrounded by fires on all sides this pissed me off. That’s not what is there bc it’s dry af I can’t imagine how much it takes to keep alive.”

Someone else added: “All I can think of when I see this is the Cinderella Story opening scene: ‘Droughts are for poor people.'”

“Rich People Privilege having green gardens when California has been having an extreme heat wave in a severe drought,” a fourth fan commented.

Someone else wrote: “Im torn between my love of gardens and my hatred for celebrities wasting water specifically in California.”

Kim previously received notices from the board to cut back on her water usage which, according to the LA times, was around 232,000 gallons more than her allowed budget in June.

BUSTED!

The notice applies to her Hidden Hills home and the property she bought next door back in May.

Kim isn’t the only star facing fines, however.

Like Hollywood star Sylvestor Stallone, 76, and comedian Kevin Hart, 43, Kim is now facing having restrictive features put onto the sprinkler systems in her garden.

Kim’s main property spans more than 15,000 square feet and features a massive swimming pool and immaculate grounds.

Her sister Kourtney, 43, who lives nearby was also named in the report after it was alleged that she used 101,000 gallons more of water at her 12,000sft house during the same time period.

In June the areas underneath the districts, which includes the A-List hotspots of Calabasas, and Hidden Hills, were put into “stage 3” restrictions because of the drought.

The report claimed Sylvester’s property also used 230,000 more gallons in June and 195,000 over the allowance in May.

He moved into the sprawling property back in March.

The backlash against all of the stars was incredible, but the Kardashians – Kourtney in particular – took serious heat from fans.

FREE-FLOWING

The Poosh founder was one of the few celebrities singled out in a new report from CBS.

They wrote that in Kourtney’s “$8 million Calabasas home, water records from the Las Virgenes Water District show the home using 245% of its allotted water budget in May. 

“That was the fourth month it went over budget since severe drought restrictions were put in place in December.”

Fans fumed over the news that Kourtney appeared to be disregarding conservation measures for her 11,500-square-foot Tuscan-style home with kids, Mason Disick, 12, Penelope, nine, and Reign, seven.

‘DISGUSTING’

One Redditor shared the news story, writing, “She should be ashamed and she should be heavily fined

“Whoever buys her ‘I’m an ecological gal’ shtick needs to wake tf up.”

Another wrote, “Exactly! It’s f**king disgusting. These people should be shamed!”

A third wrote, “Then hop on a private jet to Italy lmao. Out of touch.”

A fourth wrote, “Citizens there are having to ration their water use to drink, shower and eat.

“This family are resource abusers and it’s of little to no consequence to them. 

Another user added, “When a seemingly inevitable wildfire threatens the region (again) they can just pay for private firefighters to protect their homes, while others will lose theirs.

But at least they drink from reusable water bottles.”

The mansion has a lush, uncharacteristically green backyard and pool – one of the months she went over the limit she was even out of town for her Portofino, Italy wedding to Travis Barker.
