He continued, “We took a picture. And then I think we all reviewed them. We’re all, you know, communicating about what we’re going to post. We’re never the ones to post without permission. It’s not who we are.”
Khloé chimed in to add that the family is “very respectful” of asking others for their approval in their posts.

“We have the craziest, funniest photos from that night, you know? But we were posting like fun photos,” Kim shared, as Khloé noted that the pictures that were shared were “worthy.”
Kim agreed. “Totally. We were told it was totally cool to post,” he said. “And after they put it out, I think they realized it was Memorial Day and they didn’t want to be seen at a party, even though it had come, you know, and then they backed off. And then I think they realized, ‘Oh, that was so dumb.'”

You just have to laugh at the situation sometimes and, like, lighten it up. If everybody’s taking it the wrong way, bow out.”
She continued: “I said, ‘We should do a full Skims campaign. Take the photo. Even just us, like I’m gonna shoot you… Post it and then delete it, like, 30 minutes later. And then I say, ‘I’m sorry, I didn’t have permission to post those photos for the campaign.’ I said, ‘It would have been really funny if we made it light and funny.’
Kim went on to note that she “hated how this was received for everybody,” adding, “That’s bullshit.”
“It turned into something so crazy and ridiculous,” Kim concluded, “that it didn’t have to be.”
