AceShowbiz - Tyson Beckford has cleared up gay rumours after Kim Kardashian went after him for suggesting she had undergone plastic surgery.
The Keeping Up with the Kardashians star hit out at Beckford on Tuesday, July 31 after he criticised her body on social media under a picture of the reality star wearing a skimpy outfit.
"She is not real, doctor f**ked up on her right hip," he added alongside a vomiting emoji.
Kim spotted Tyson's remark and responded with a reply insinuating he is gay, writing: "Sis, we all know why you don't care for it", adding a nail polish emoji.
Tyson followed up Kardashian's response by reiterating his stance against plastic surgery: "My opinion on women who do plastic surgery stays the same, not for me! I personally don't care for it! Done end of story (sic)!" he added in an Instagram Story.
The feud whipped up a frenzy on Twitter as followers of both stars took aim at Kim for suggesting her celebrity critic was gay, with accusations launched against the reality star and beauty maven that her comment was homophobic.
"@KimKardashian is trash!!," one user tweeted. "I liked her until she used being gay as a drag on the shade room ig (Instagram) pg (page). honey you do not get to imply that someone is in the closet just because he didn't like your outfit/body you don't do that girl since you employ an array of gay makeup artist/stylist (sic)".
Tyson has now responded directly to Kim's comments on Instagram with a series of shots of himself working out.
"Train 5-6 days a wk, weights Martial Arts and Firearms and I defend those who can't defend themselves!" he wrote. "I support LGBTQ,even though I'm not Gay. It's just the Human thing to do".
