Patti LuPone was less than pleased with the news of Kim Kardashian's new acting career.
Kim, 42, announced on her Instagram account that she would be joining the cast of American Horror Story alongside the series veteran, Emma Roberts, for the 12th season of the horror show.
Patti worked on the FX series for two seasons, appearing first as Joan Ramsey in Coven and returning for the most recent instalment called NYC as Kathy Pizazz, a cabaret singer.
The 74-year-old actress passionately expressed her distaste for Kim's introduction on the show during a game of Do They Give A Damn? with Andy Cohen on Watch What Happens Live.
Andy asked: "Do you give a damn that Kim Kardashian is now acting in season 12 of American Horror Story?"
Patti angrily answered through gritted teeth: "Yes I do!"
"You don't like it do you?" Andy replied, to which Patti added: "No I don't."
"Why?" Andy asked again. "Because she's taking roles away-"
"From actors!" Patti answered. "You know, excuse me, excuse me, Kim… you know… what are you doing with your life?"
"Don’t get on the stage, Mrs Worthington," she insisted.
Fans online were just as annoyed by the news of Kim's upcoming appearance on the show, with one tweeting: "The announcement of Kim K being on the new season of ahs definitely ruined my day."
A second added: "This has been the worst year of my life and to top it off Kim K is a MAIN ROLE in AHS???? Just kill me now."
A third put: "What were you thinking casting Kim K? I have watched faithfully every year, but I will skip this year just because she is in it. She is not worthy of this show. I am so disappointed."
Although Kim is best known for her work in reality TV, including her family's Hulu show, and her modelling, Kim has tried acting a few times in the past.
She's starred in Disaster Movie and the romantic drama Temptation: Confessions Of A Marriage Counselor.
The American Horror Story co-creator Ryan Murphy told The Hollywood Reporter that Kim will be taking on an "ultimately terrifying role" in the new season.
"Kim is among the biggest and brightest television stars in the world and we are thrilled to welcome her to the AHS family.
"Emma [Roberts] and I are excited about collaborating with this true force in the culture. Halley Feiffer has written a fun, stylish and ultimately terrifying role, especially for Kim, and this season is ambitious and unlike anything we have ever done."
