The Kardashians are slave driving, sweatshop owning, children’s rights abusers… ok not really.

It has been revealed though that the Kardashian Brand has been most likely unknowingly endorsing and selling products made in foreign sweatshops.

“The Kardashians are in bed with some pretty bad people,” says Charles Kernaghan, the executive director of the Institute for Global Labour and Human Rights. “Not only are celebrities like the Kardashians taking advantage of these workers, they are holding hands with a government that spits on democracy and women’s rights.”

The Kardashians do endorse and sell many consumer products in the fashion, health and lifestyle industries that are not made through these sweatshops, but there are certain brands that are being investigated such as the K-Dash Label, the Kris Jenner Kollection and ShoeDazzle, which Kim cofounded and endorses.

Kris Jenner is a professional momager, she turns out more products than any Chinese sweatshop.

Li Qiang, the executive director of China Labor Watch, says. “People like the Kardashians are producing their products in China because they will get more profit, since the labor cost is so low compared to the United States and other countries.”

In response to the allegations a rep for the Kardashians released a statement saying, “This is the first we are hearing about it and take it very seriously as we would never condone this. We are presently investigating the situation.

To be fair, the Kardashians probably had no idea. There have been many stars in the past that have put their names on products made by abused and impoverished children.

Kathy Lee Gifford and Michael Jordan have also run into trouble in situations like this.
