Jameela Jamil made headlines over the weekend for her impassioned commentary on Krishnan Guru-Murphy’s podcast. In the latest hour-long episode, the actress, former TV host and model, and current body-positive activist, discussed feminist issues including the #MeToo movement and, most controversially, the Kardashian sisters.

Jamil, who stars in The Good Place, has previously slammed the sisters, but Kim Kardashian West in particular, for sponsored posts about appetite suppressants and other 'weight-loss' products.

The 32 year-old expanded on her criticism in this podcast, calling the Calabasas-natives ‘double agents of feminism’, who are ‘still putting the patriarchal narrative out into the world'.

The British multi-hyphenate explained how, simply because someone is a woman, they are not exempt from feminist criticism, specifically condemning the social media moguls for their continued sponsored posts despite their apparent wealth.

The internet was quickly brimming with praise for Jamil, thanking her for speaking out, and celebrating her no-nonsense argument against a monolithic view of female physical beauty and the value placed upon it.

Jameela Jamil had it so right when she called out body image perfection 'recycling hatred'. Women's mags teach us to hate ourselves, teach men to hate and demand one type of body - often unachievable to the average women. — Dr Fern Riddell (@FernRiddell) September 3, 2018

However, as the days have gone on, others have come out to show their distaste in Jamil’s rhetoric.

I shan’t be joining in with the Jameela Jamil lovefest as I’ve often found her brand of feminism to be oppressive & limiting. She has, historically, very readily slut-shamed other women and seems to pile on the Kardashians at every opportunity for being hyper-sexual. — Martha Moore (@marthajosephine) August 31, 2018

Referencing a previous post from Jamil’s blog that has since been deleted, alongside apparently deleted Twitter posts, some have claimed that Jamil's feminism could well be seen to be as damaging as the Kardashians' own power.

Thinking abt that Jameela Jamil video that’s been everywhere- I don’t luv Kim K but I also hate accusations that a woman is an ~agent of the patriarchy. It’s only used at people who are perceived as hypersexualised or having ‘the wrong kind’ of sex + it’s a rly ugly feminist tool — Bethany (@bethanyrutter) September 2, 2018

In one blog post Daniella Dash concluded, 'If your feminism is exclusionary, start again and come correct.'

The Kardashians are yet to respond to Jamil's criticism.
