Kourtney Kardashian calls Auckland 'Aukland' days after Blink-182 fires shots at Christchurch

Kourtney Kardashian has added to Blink-182's recent jab at Christchurch by accidentally misspelling Auckland in a social media post to her millions of followers.

The reality TV star was in Aotearoa with her husband Travis Barker for the band's final world tour date at Spark Arena on Saturday.

Kardashian wrote "Aukland, New Zealand" on an Instagram Story behind the scenes video of her walking up to the stage and showing the crowd.

Kardashian has 224 million followers.

In a follow up video, she showed off a grey, dreary Auckland skyline amid the bad weather hitting the motu on Sunday morning. It had the Etta James song 'Stormy Weather' playing as it panned from a hotel room to a cloud-filled backdrop and rain. 

Kardashian titled the video: "I love the rain."

An autumn storm hit the country on Sunday with heavy rain and thunderstorms signalling the end of the summer run of good weather.

The worst of the weather is forecast for Monday, with NIWA saying heavy rain, thunderstorms and strong wind are forecast to sweep across much of the country as a cold front moved northeast, due to an "active trough" of low pressure.

Kardashian's comments come just days after video of Blink-182 saying "F**k Christchurch" spread on social media after they had cancelled their show there.

In a clip uploaded to TikTok, the group's drummer Travis Barker accidentally addressed the Melbourne crowd as "Sydney", to much derision from his fellow band members. 

"He said 'Sydney', Travis said 'Sydney'," the band said to repeated boos from the Melbourne crowd. 

Then frontman Mark Hoppus took it a step further, telling the audience: "Look to be honest, Sydney sucks so f**king bad, we had to cancel Christchurch." 

Guitarist Tom deLonge added: "Yeah f**k Christchurch. That's a gnarly name for a town. Could you imagine naming your f**king city that?" 

Blink-182 bassist and vocalist Mark Hoppus was forced to address the viral footage over the weekend, saying on Discord: "We got a call saying it was cancelled. What else can I do?"

"Vent all you want in here but it's never like we want to cancel any shows. I love NZ. Wanted to play the show."
