Television actress Yvette Nicole Brown has taken a sharp jab at reality TV star Khloé Kardashian following her recent criticism of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass during the ongoing wildfires in the city. The public feud began after Khloé Kardashian raised concerns about the city’s response to the natural disaster, accusing authorities of mismanagement. However, Brown quickly brought up a previous incident involving Kardashian that painted a more controversial picture of her environmental footprint.
On January 14, 2025, Brown shared a 2022 Rolling Stone article on her Instagram, highlighting Khloé Kardashian as one of the worst offenders of water wastage during California’s severe drought. The headline of the article, “Kardashians Among LA’s Worst Water Wasters,” drew attention to the reality star’s excessive water consumption during a critical period when residents were urged to conserve resources to combat the ongoing drought and its link to the devastating wildfires.
Brown captioned her post, saying, “This is from 2022 when Los Angeles was amid a drought. Every citizen was asked to conserve for the good of everyone else. Y’know, because of fires? This is how some citizens responded to the ask. Is THIS a joke, @khloekardashian?”

The post quickly gained traction, with many of Brown’s followers supporting her and criticizing Kardashian for not leading by example in the crisis. Some fans slammed Kardashian for her vocal criticisms of the city’s leadership, with one comment reading, “See what happens when you’re loud and wrong, @khloekardashian??? Smh.”
This clash follows Khloé Kardashian recent remarks, where she voiced frustration over Mayor Bass’s handling of the wildfires. As the wildfires wreak havoc across California, locals and celebrities are divided on how the city’s leadership should respond to the catastrophe.
Despite the backlash from Brown and her followers, Kardashian has yet to comment on the renewed criticism of her water usage. As the wildfires continue to affect Southern California, the debate surrounding celebrity accountability and environmental responsibility remains at the forefront of public discussion.
The controversy illuminates the ongoing issues surrounding California’s water conservation efforts and the responsibility of public figures to set a positive example, especially regarding pressing environmental issues like droughts and natural disasters.
