Khloé Kardashian hits back at ‘Bachelorette’ casting rumors

Khloé Kardashian may not be handing out roses anytime soon.

On Saturday, Khloé, 34, and older sister Kim Kardashian feuded with “Bachelor” creator Mike Fleiss on Twitter over claims Khloé would be joining “The Bachelorette,” after splitting from boyfriend Tristan Thompson amid a cheating scandal involving younger sister Kylie Jenner‘s pal, Jordyn Woods.

“Fake f–king news big time!!!!!” Kim, 38, tweeted in response to Pop Crave’s post that Fleiss, 54, claimed Khloé was in talks to be on the ABC dating show.

It didn’t take long for Fleiss, who tweeted Feb. 22 that he had “been in contact with my dear friend @KrisJenner about @khloekardashian as #TheBachelortte,” to respond.

“She’s out of the loop on this one … #TheBachelorette,” Fleiss wrote. “How would @KimKardashian know??? This is between me and @KrisJenner — and most importantly @khloekardashian!!!”

The online back-and-forth continued as Kim posted a screengrab of a text conversation between mom Kris Jenner and Khloé.

“Are you guys in talks with the bachekorettte [sic],” Kim messaged, to which Kris replied, “No lol.” Khloé then responded, “Ewwww I mean put some respeck [sic] on my name.”

As for Fleiss, he continued to tweet to his followers.

“As @KimKardashian is obviously aware, this is all about timing for @khloekardashian ! She’s been through a lot. Ts and Ps from all of #BachelorNation !” Fleiss penned, followed by, “FYI… We have strict confidentiality agreements with all #TheBachelorette candidates. @khloekardashian couldn’t tell @KimKardashian anyway…,” which caught Khloé’s attention.

“I’m not f–king clickbait right now,” she wrote. “Stop or you will be hearing from my lawyers. How insensitive!!”

Fleiss then tweeted several responses to Khloé’s message.

“This is about helping people find true love — nothing more!!! #TheBachelorette,” he wrote.

“One of the things we look for in choosing #TheBachelorette is a great sense of humor … Might be time to look elsewhere.”
