Louis Tomlinson is under fire for making like Kim Kardashian . No, the actor didn’t film himself having sex with Ray J. Nor did he earn $15 million for marrying Kris Humphries and then divorce him 72 days later. Instead, the One Direction star sent the following Tweet to fan yesterday: “Had an amazing @BooteaUK smoothie from Bootea.com this morning #booteashake.” Because Bootea is geared toward “weight loss,” as advertised on its official website, many fans called out the artist for pushing a supplement on his 13.9 million followers. Was he paid for the endorsement? Is this really the kind of product he wants to push on teenage girls? Tomlinson ended up deleting the message, but not before it was re-Tweeted over 10,000 times and not before the company’s website said The Bootea Shake had been sold out. “Louis tweeted about the drink as he had one this morning and enjoyed it,” the singer’s rep said in a statement. “However, he did not realize they are associated with weight loss, and would never endorse weight loss products.” We’ll consider this a one-time mistake and move on, Louis. Just stay away from QuickTrim , okay?
