Kim Kardashian Apologizes for Using Slur During Halloween Party

Followers immediately picked up on her use of the word and on Thursday, Kardashian issued an apology

Kim Kardashian made headlines this Halloween--but it wasn't just for her costume.

The "Keeping Up With the Kardashians" star attended her sister Kendall Jenner's spooktacular bash on Wednesday with Jonathan Cheban. The pair dressed up as Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee; however, guests had a hard time identifying the duo.

"Nobody knew who we were," a frustrated Kim said via an Instagram Stories video, later adding that all of the attendees were "too f--king young" to figure it out and that it was "so sad."

While sister Kylie Jenner caught onto the costume right away, many of the guests continued to struggle with placing the costume.

"Nobody knows who I am," Kardashian told her fellow guest and former assistant Stephanie Shepherd. "Yeah! Retarded."

Followers immediately picked up on her use of the word. On Thursday, Kardashian issued an apology.

"I want to apologize for what I said in a recent video post that is inappropriate and insensitive to the special needs community," she said in a comment to E! News. "I try to learn from my mistakes, and this is one of those times. Please know that my intention is always pure, and in this case, it was a mistake. I'm sorry."

In July, sister Khloe Kardashian also came under fire after she used the word during an Instagram Livestream. The new mom apologized for her wrongdoing after a follower called her out on Twitter.

"Ugh I hate that word! Why did I even say that?" she wrote at the time. "You are a million percent right and I actually greatly dislike when people use that word! I will do better! I am sorry! Much love today."
