A recently surfaced throwback photo of Kim and Kourtney Kardashian has ignited widespread discussion across social media platforms. The image, shared on X (formerly Twitter), is accompanied by the provocative caption: “before they was black, they was mexican.”
The photo captures the Kardashian sisters during their teenage years in the 1990s, a period when they often embraced the fashion and beauty trends of the era. Notably, this includes the then-popular pencil-thin eyebrows and sun-kissed hairstyles. Kim has previously shared similar throwback images, reflecting on her evolving style over the years.
The caption has sparked a range of reactions from social media users, with some critiquing the sisters’ transformations and others defending their natural appearances. One user commented, “Kim shoulda kept her OG face,” while another remarked, “I probably would’ve actually liked them had they stayed like this. Lol her original face is pretty she just needed some brows.” Conversely, some defended the sisters, attributing their looks to early 2000s fashion trends and their Armenian heritage. A commenter noted, “These women have Armenian genes and this is how average Armenians looked like circa 2000-2008.”
This isn’t the first time the Kardashians’ past appearances have been a topic of public interest. Both Kim and Kourtney have previously shared nostalgic photos from their younger years, offering fans glimpses into their pre-fame lives. For instance, Kourtney has posted images from her college days, reminiscing about her personal style during that time.
A picture of Kim and Kourtney recently gone viral has sparked debates about beauty standards, cultural identity, and the consequences of fame on physical appearance once again.
As public personas, the morphing faces of the Kardashians are perennial debates and conversations themselves in service of greater universal discussions of beauty and authenticity.
