During a lengthy conversation on the Not Skinny But Not Fat podcast, Khloé got candid about the online criticism she constantly faces — especially when it comes to her appearance.
The reality star, who says she’s “hesitant” to do interviews in fear of them becoming “this viral thing,” maintained her stance that she’s gotten very little work done.

And while all the rumors that she had gotten a “face transplant,” used to bother her, she’s gotten better about letting it roll off her shoulders.
“It did use to bother me when people were [saying] I’ve had 12 face transplants. I’m like, ‘Oh, my God, I have?’ I was like, ‘That’s crazy.’ It offended me,” Khloé said.
She added that she “couldn’t figure out why people thought that” especially because she’s only gotten “one nose job that I love.”

“Like, I want everyone to know…I don’t care to lie about it…But the transplant thing, I just want to understand why,” she shared.
Khloé even joked that while she’s good for now, a face transplant “sounds amazing later in life.”
She went on to say that she believes that all the talk about her online might stem from people’s desire to compare “‘the old me’ vs. what I look like now” or wanting to compare her to her siblings.

“It’s like, you guys, this is what we look like, so I feel like you should know by now, and enough,” she said, adding, “Oh, my God, I hear it all the time.”
And while she definitely knows she gets more online criticism than her other sisters, she says she’s willing to take the heat on their behalf.
“I’ll take it, and I do think I can take it, but I don’t know the rhyme or reason,” Khloé concluded.
