It’s the A-list feud no one saw coming.
Australian actress Nathalie Kelley, 40, has taken a public swipe at Kim Kardashian ahead of her brand Skims’ new activewear collaboration with Nike.
The NikeSkims collection launches on September 26 and will feature body-sculpting pieces created for sports performance, including sleek crop tops and leggings.
Nathalie, star of The Fast and Furious: Tokyo Drift and an outspoken climate change activist, took a stand against the collaboration Tuesday when she reposted an article condemning NikeSkims for its use of synthetic materials like nylon and spandex.
Making her thoughts crystal clear, Nathalie accompanied the post with a poop emoji.
‘NikeSkims is ‘disrupting the industry’ with more fossil fuel fashion’, the article, by media company EcoAge, reads.

‘NikeSkims is launching with seven collections mostly made from synthetic materials, such as nylon and polyester,’ the post continues, before slamming the brand for ‘producing more synthetic activewear at the expense of people and planet.’
Kardashian’s Skims empire has been at the centre of controversy before.
Remake, a global advocacy group, gave the clothing giant a zero score in its 2024 accountability report which assesses brands’ transparency, wages and wellbeing of employees, environmental impact and sustainability goals.
The zero placed SKIMS dead last, alongside fast fashion giant Temu that has been accused of forced labor and selling products deemed unsafe to human health.
The report blasted Kardashian’s company for its carbon emissions, use of materials harmful to health and environment and unfair working conditions at a supply factory in South East Asia.
Skims was launched in 2019 and is valued at around $4 billion.
Nathalie has never been afraid to advocate for the environment, having famously slammed Burning Man festival for encouraging guests to burn fuel and embrace a more eco-friendly means of celebration.
She also called for festival-goers to stop wearing feathers in their hair, as it is ‘pushing wild species in the Amazon to extinction.’
