Kris Jenner accuses 'cruel' trolls of causing mental health issues
Reality star Kris Jenner has fired back at "cruel" trolls for online abuse and the impact it has.
Kris Jenner has accused "cruel" trolls of causing mental health issues.
The 68-year-old star has hit out at the way some people choose to use social media to be "mean and critical".
Speaking to Los Angeles Magazine, she said: "I have a real problem with bullies and people who are mean and critical online.
"It’s unfortunate, but there are a lot of people who feel like they need to sound off about somebody else, and it’s cruel.
"It affects people’s mental health. I cannot imagine in a trillion years weighing in on somebody publicly and knowing that it would hurt someone’s feelings."
The Kardashians family matriarch and mom-ager - who suggested trolls do so because they're "very unhappy within their own life" - insisted she tries not to take notice of what other people say online.
She added: "I don’t know how or where that comes from; most times it’s somebody that’s very unhappy within their own life.
"It’s a shame that our society has come to this. The good news is, I don’t read comments. For the most part I don’t pay attention.
"I’m too busy. I have 12 jobs."
However, Kris pointed out she is still able to "laugh at herself", and she's a huge fan of social media star Yuri Lamasbella, who has made her name by spoofing the Kardashians.
She said: "She's hysterical. The Post-It note fingernails are my favorite part. I love it so much.
"And her impression of Kourtney — and just all of us ... you have to be able to laugh at yourself, and she makes me giggle.
"This is a girl who I hope somebody's paying. I wish I was her manager because I want her to make a lot of money for whatever she's doing. She's adorable."
And Kris also pointed that out that while "people occasionally talk about the haters", they make up a "tiny percentage" of those talking about her and her famous family.
She added: "You can’t focus on the negative; you have to really embrace the positive."
