Entertainment Tonight reported that every person attending the party, including employees, had to have a rapid coronavirus test onsite with a negative result before being allowed to go upstairs to join the celebration.
But several people took to social media to question why none of the guests were wearing face masks or following social distancing guidelines.
One person shared a photo of a sign from the party asking attendees not to post any photos from the bash on social media, tweeting, “kendall jenner threw a big ass party with all those celebrities without masks in the middle of a pandemic with a ‘no social media’ rule so people wouldn’t find out about it….”
Another person called Kendall “so f—king irresponsible for hosting a Halloween party in the middle of a pandemic just bc her family and the attendees are rich celebrities who couldn’t care less about thousands of people dying everyday bc of covid and they’re out there partying.”
Kim was criticized at the end of October for flying two dozen of her friends and family to a private island for a weeklong celebration in honor of her milestone birthday.
While the KKW Beauty founder wrote on Instagram that all of the guests had quarantined and undergone “multiple health screens” prior to flying out, Kim was criticized for being tone deaf amid the global pandemic, which has killed 231,000 people in the U.S. and more than 1.2 million worldwide.
“Are you that insensitive you don’t realise this is not what the majority of people during the worst covid spike yet want to hear? People are going to food banks not private islands,” rock star Peter Frampton tweeted.
Khloé Kardashian defended the getaway on The Ellen DeGeneres Show on Thursday, October 29, saying, “I think there’s so many frustrations going on for everybody, but also, it’s her 40th. This is something she really wanted to do for us … it was such a nice thing.”

Kendall's cake had a throwback photo of her on it but one commenter on Twitter wrote that seeing her "blowing out candles as a masked waiter holds her cake and tries to move out of the way was actually the scariest thing I saw on Halloween."
