Earlier this week, Harper's Bazaar Arabia revealed their September cover star, and it's none other than Kim Kardashian West

In the latest spread, the American reality TV star pays homage to her fashion icon, Cher, and talks about "reconciling the soul of a feminist with the body of a bombshell."

Soon after it was announced, the cover stirred up controversy and saw fans of the magazine questioning why the reality star was selected.

Not everyone's happy about the magazine's latest spread

The Kardashian feature is already making the rounds online. 

While a few people loved the entire spread, others were pretty upset over it to say the least. 

Angry followers questioned why the magazine seldom features Arab models and stars on its covers, while others accused it of misrepresenting Arab women. 

A few were also angered over the fact that the reality star was portrayed as a "feminist" in her interview. 

Some were quite upset

"Seriously! Trash"

"The soul of a feminist? Really, Harpers Bazaar Arabia?!"

Some fans of the magazine just couldn't even ...

Many raised this point

"The magazine is Arab but has nothing to do with the Arab world. No Arab designers or photographers, no coverage of fashion events in the Arab world, they don't even use the Arabic language in their issues. This is extremely offensive to Arabs everywhere, especially because you call this the Arabian version of the international magazine." 

Not everyone was upset over the latest cover though

Some actually loved it

And thought it's beautiful

This isn't the first time an Arab version of an international magazine stirs up a similar debate

This is certainly not the first time an Arabic version of an international magazine sparks online debate over their choice of cover models. 

In recent months, Vogue Arabia, was criticized for featuring Gigi and Bella Hadid on covers of separate issues.

Gigi Hadid was >featured on the magazine's premiere cover in March, while her sister, Bella, was featured on the publication's >September cover.  

Even though the sisters are half Palestinian – their father Mohamad Hadid is a Palestinian who moved to Syria after leaving Palestine when he was just 18 months old – many still attacked the magazine for featuring them.
