Internet personality Tokyo Toni went on a rant calling out Khloe Kardashian after the latter's recent remarks about publicizing charitable acts. On Wednesday, December 4, 2024, Toni took to her Instagram Live to address Kardashian, stating:
"Out of the countless comments you could've chosen to engage with, Khloe. Someone in reference to me?. In a way that totally undermines my work."
Tokyo Toni, the mother of socialite and rapper Blac Chyna, Rob Kardashian's (Khloe's brother) former fiancée, made the remarks after Khloe responded to a fan's comments under her post. The user praised Tokyo for helping feed the homeless recently. This prompted the youngest Kardashian sister to suggest she doesn't believe in publicizing charitable acts.
Taking offense, Toni called her a hypocrite, noting that an episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians revolved around Khloe helping a homeless man. She stated:
"Was that a movement? But it sounds like you. You said you don’t do that. You put him on TV too," she stated. “B*tch you’re a homeless case."
As Toni Tokyo's rant went viral, internet users quickly noted that the online personality tirade was expected. One commented:
"I knew she coming, y'all knew she was coming, they knew she was coming."
Netizens rallied in support of Toni, claiming that she has always been helping people and that there is nothing wrong in inspiring others by "recoding" their philanthropic deeds. Here are some comments below @theneighborhoodtalk's post on Instagram:
However, some defended Khloe Kardashian, noting that people like to portray her as the "villain."
Tokyo Toni frequently posts videos of herself donating food, clothes, and other necessities to the homeless
Tokyo Toni, a.k.a. Shalana Jones-Hunter, is a vlogger whose daughter Blac Chyna shares a daughter, Dream Kardashian, with Rob Kardashian (Khloe's brother). She hails from the Dominican Republic.
It all began last week when Toni revealed in an Instagram post that she spent her Thanksgiving holiday cooking meals for the homeless. This garnered her much praise online.
Meanwhile, Khloe Kardashian shared online that she spent Thanksgiving with her children, Dream and Tatum, and her mother, Kris Jenner. The post prompted a user to comment:
"Y’all over here enjoying while dreams grandma is feeding the homeless."
In response, Khloe remarked:
"Watch out! Don't do your good deeds publicly, to be admired by others, for you will lose the reward from your Father in heaven"-Matthew 6:1-4. Just because we don't post about it, doesn't mean we aren't doing it my love. Sending you love and blessings."
In a separate comment, Khloe added that she didn't feel comfortable "highlighting people when they're at a low point in their lives." She explained that she doesn't want to "publicize that" for her "pat on the back," adding that she would rather "highlight a charity or an organization that needs awareness."
Shortly after, Toni hit back, referencing an episode from season one of Keeping Up with the Kardashians in which Khloe befriended and helped a homeless man. She said:
"Out of the countless comments you could've chosen to engage with, Khloe. Someone in reference to me?. In a way that totally undermines my work."
Tokyo Toni is known for being actively involved in various charitable works. She regularly documents herself on social media, handing out clothes, food, and other basic supplies to people in need. Last year, while recording a live video for her Instagram, she reportedly stopped a potential domestic violence, as per HotNewHipHop.
Nevertheless, Khloe Kardashian has not publicly reacted to Tokyo Toni's rant.
