THE Kardashians have been called out for their ‘hypocritical’ behaviour and ‘wasteful’ water use at their Los Angeles mansions, as the fires destroy the city.

The wind-fuelled LA flames haven't spared the homes of the rich and famous with Hollywood A-listers tragically seeing their houses turned to smouldering rubble.

And the Kardashian clan have been trying to show their support for the community, but faced a torrent of criticism on social media as a result.

It comes as Khloe Kardashian criticized LA Mayor Karen Bass, writing: “Major Bass you are a joke.”

Khloe’s comment came after the L.A. Fire Chief went on FOX 11 LA to claim the Major hadn’t supported their department by ordering budget cuts, and compromised the department's abilities to fight the massive blazes as a result.

But Khloe has now been accused of being a ‘water hog’ by angry fans, as one person wrote on X: “Instead of Khloe Kardashian talking bulls*** about Mayor Bass, people should be talking about how she and her sister used an excess of over 300,000 gallons of water in just one month during a drought."”

Another said: “Wonder where all of our water went? Kardashian Greed! No wonder our land is burning."

And a third person echoed: “Khloe Kardashian thinks she's better than anyone else that's why she wasted over 300,000 gallons of water. I'm not interested in anything that stupid--e-dope has to say. Boycott her vain and useless family."

Fans who dug into Khloe’s water usage discovered that she was way above the city’s guidelines, and allegedly used 101,000 gallons above the legal limit in 2022.

Kim Kardashian was accused of wasting water at her property at the time.

Kim’s Hidden Hills home and its adjacent lot exceeded their June budget by around 232,000 gallons – she was fined as a result.

Other celebrities including Sylvester Stallone and comedian Kevin Hart were also fined.

It has since been noted that Kim has since installed water-saving measures.

One neighbor of Ms Kardashin said: "Everyone was told to cut back on water precisely for this situation, to preserve it to fight fires.

"They carried on watering because they could afford the fines."

And Kourtney Kardashian’s 1.86-acre property in nearby Calabasas exceeded its budget that same month by about 101,000 gallons.

Fans of the famous family have also hit out at them over their alleged inaction on the issue.

One unapologetic fan wrote: “"Khloe deserves every ounce of backlash she is receiving. She has had nothing to say about other social justice issues until it directly impacted her and her family. She is ignorant and I hope she learned her lesson to keep her big lips shut.”

Another said: “They don’t donate because they have no money. They’re far less wealthy than they claim. Their proclamations of being billionaires was a bid to attract more sponsors etc but now it is biting them in their gigantic, fake a----."

This comes as the devastating fires continue to rip through Los Angeles, displacing thousands and resulting in unseen damage to the area.

Some 153,000 LA residents are now under mandatory evacuation orders as wind gusts as high as 80mph are set to hit in the next few days - making it even more difficult to contain the blazes.

The wildfires are thought to have killed at least 16 people so far.

The Palisades fire is the biggest of all and has so far burned down 22,660 acres of land destroying more than 5,316 structures.
