KOURTNEY Kardashian has been accused of "mocking poor people" with her photoshoot at a truck stop with Travis Barker.
The reality star, 43, and Blink-183 drummer, 46, posed in the snacks aisle of a convenience store in a series of snaps earlier this week.
The couple, who was dressed in baggy clothes, was seen eyeing up the chips, before trying on some of the high-vis vests that were on sale.
They then stood out in the parking lot together, which was filled with trucks.
Kourtney captioned the shoot: "Truck stop, huh?"
Critics accused her of making fun of "working class" people with the shoot.
One wrote on Reddit: "It's full mockery. 'Look babe, we’re just like poor people!'"
Another added: "We – the working class – are a sideshow to them. So tone-deaf."
A third posted: "Cosplaying as commoners has proven to be extremely effective PR!"
Kourtney faced similar backlash last week when she posted a picture to her Instagram Stories of a makeshift dinner table in an overgrown backyard.

"She wouldn’t last 5 seconds in that person’s 15x15ft. backyard sitting on dirty lawn chairs eating off of those cheap *** plastic plates," said another.

In the days leading up to the ceremony, Kourtney and Travis enjoyed the spoiled life onboard a luxurious superyacht, owned by their fashion designer pals Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana, and said to cost more than $14 million.
