Kim Kardashian called out the YouTube pranksters who staged a photo to make it look like Travis Scott was cheating on his girlfriend, Kylie Jenner.

A photo of someone who looked like Scott with a woman who was not Jenner surfaced last week. Scott responded saying it was him. “Only got love for my wife. No time to be wasting. Try again,” he wrote in a comment on Instagram.

On Wednesday, the YouTube channel ChristianAdamG posted a video called “We Fooled the Internet w/ Fake Travis Scott Cheating Photo.” The video shows the process of staging the photo and “tricking” the internet. In the description, there is a disclaimer that says: “This video was NOT made to intentionally hurt Travis Scott, Kylie Jenner or the entire Kardashian family in ANY way shape or form.”

Despite the disclaimer, Kim Kardashian didn’t find it funny and did find it hurtful. Shortly after the video was posted, she took to Twitter to call the pranksters out.

“I hate that I am bringing attention to this but this is absolutely disgusting that you would find this funny to mess with Travis & Kylie who just started a family together,” she wrote. “This is really damaging to relationships, families and is just so wrong!”

Her sister Khloe Kardashian also chimed in. “People are absolutely disgusting! The mind games this would do to somebody… That is so completely not OK! This person should be so ashamed of themselves! What filth,” she said.

Other people on Twitter agreed that this prank was taking it too far.

“It’s sad that people are willing to ruin a family just for clout and views. That’s honestly sad af,” one person said.

“Nothing was funny about this. I 100% support Travis and Kylie. I knew he would never cheat on her and adores his girls. Not here for breaking up a happy home,” another person wrote.
