Khloé Kardashian has outraged fans after appearing noticeably darker in a new video with Kylie Jenner, with some accusing her of blackface.

The 34-year-old appeared very dark during a Q&A led by her little sister and fans are hurling insults her way.

Appearing alongside Kylie, Khloé wears a sequined, rose gold dress with her platinum blonde hair, signature hoops and pink nails while promoting their upcoming collaboration for Kylie Cosmetics.

The comments are pretty rough, including one user who asks, "But why is Khloe in blackface?" Several fans responded back with coffin and crying emojis.

Other winning comments included: "Khloe look lk a cookie that stayed in the oven too long #crispy" and "Khloe looks so different and a good 10 shades darker."

This isn't the first time Khloé has been accused of culture appropriation.

Fans had mixed reactions when the "KUWTK" star dressed like Diana Ross for the singer's 75th birthday.

Going out with teased out hair and a plunging gold dress, several followers slammed her for the look accusing her of having a "mid-white crisis."

Khloé's famous sisters have also been accused of blackface throughout the years.

In 2015, controversy followed Kylie Jenner when she posted the above shot, but the reality star addressed it head on.

"This is a black light and neon lights people lets all calm down," Jenner told fans.

Kim Kardashian was also accused of appearing darker in her 2018 promotion pics for KKW Beauty.

The mogul was slammed when she shared the photos, with several fans saying she was “impersonating a black woman” and “offending black people.”

Just like Kylie, Kim addressed the controversy, telling New York Times, “I would obviously never want to offend anyone.”

“I was really tan when we shot the images, and it might be that the contrast was off."

She added, “Of course, I have the utmost respect for why people might feel the way they did. But we made the necessary changes to that photo and the rest of the photos."
