Reality TV star Kim Kardashian recently lost approximately 280,000 followers on Instagram following her guest appearance in the latest season of “American Horror Story.” Her cameo on the hit show garnered mixed reactions, with some praising her acting while others criticized it as “objectively terrible.”
Kim Kardashian’s role in “American Horror Story” saw her playing a high-flying publicist to a would-be Oscar nominee, a character not far from her own glamorous life. Given her experience in front of the camera and her background in reality television, it was expected that she would deliver a credible performance.
Although many viewers appreciated her appearance on the show, some labeled her acting as subpar. The negative feedback and criticism took a toll on her Instagram follower count, leading to a decrease of approximately 280,000 followers in just three weeks. On average, around 14,000 people per day unfollowed Kardashian on the platform.
While 280,000 followers might seem like a significant number, it’s worth noting that Kim Kardashian has a massive following of 364 million on Instagram at the time of this writing. In this context, the loss represents a relatively small portion of her followers.
“American Horror Story” has a history of featuring celebrity guest stars, and Kim Kardashian is not the first big name to make an appearance on the show. Previous seasons have included stars like Lady Gaga, and Kardashian’s participation adds her to the list of notable celebrities who have been part of the popular series.
In the latest season, “American Horror Story” is adapted from the book “Delicate Condition” by Danielle Valentine. The story centers around Anna Victoria Alcott, portrayed by Emma Roberts, who is a rising star trying to conceive a child. As the narrative unfolds, Anna becomes increasingly fearful that someone is attempting to sabotage her attempts at motherhood.
Despite the mixed reviews and the minor drop in Instagram followers, Kim Kardashian remains a social media powerhouse with a vast and dedicated following. Her cameo on “American Horror Story” adds to her extensive list of ventures and appearances in the entertainment industry.
