Marilyn Monroe’s estate may be happy that Kim Kardashian wore the iconic “Birthday Dress” to the Met Gala, but the designer of the dress, Bob Mackie, is not.

Speaking with Entertainment Weekly, Mackie called wearing the dress “a big mistake.”

“[Marilyn] was a goddess. A crazy goddess, but a goddess. She was just fabulous. Nobody photographs like that. And it was done for her. It was designed for her,” Mackie stated. “Nobody else should be seen in that dress.”

Mackie drew the design for Jean Louis in 1962, who would fashion Monroe for the president of John F. Kennedy. Monroe would die three months later.

Kim Kardashian wore the dress as she strolled the red carpet with her bae, Pete Davidson. Leading up to the big event, the dress was displayed at Ripley’s Believe It or Not! museum in Orlando, Florida.

“Well, this is Marilyn Monroe’s dress and it is 60 years old and she wore this when she sang ‘Happy Birthday’ to President John F. Kennedy in 1962,” Kardashian confirmed to La La on the red carpet. “I had this idea to try it on and then they came with armed guards and gloves.”

According to PEOPLE, the dress was a bit too small and required an intense diet from Kim Kardashian to wear. “I tried it on, and it didn’t fit me. I said, ‘Give me three weeks.’ I had to lose 16 pounds down today,” Kardashian said.

Kardashian stated the challenge was like getting ready for a movie, and she abandoned carbs and sugars for three weeks. After the conclusion, Kardashian joked at a pizza and donut party at the hotel after the event’s conclusion.

The dress originally cost $12,000 and was created around Monroe, who was sewn into it as it was made. After Kardashian walked the red carpet, she changed into a replica dress for the actual event.

Kim Kardashian To Seek Restraining Order After Receiving Diamond Ring, Plan B In The Mail

There is no doubting Kanye West’s place in the fashion world. That could also be associated with his ex-wife Kim Kardashian unless you ask YE, who stated she dresses like Marge Simpson.

In the latest episode of The Kardashians, Kim spoke about beginning to pick out her clothes again after he split from YE. Kardashian would tell her sister Kourtney Kardashian that she would always ask for YE’s input on clothes and now has panic attacks about what she should wear. After opting for one of her faux leather pieces from the SKIMS x Fendi collection for the WSJ. Innovator Awards, Kim received a call from Ye.

“He told me my career’s over, and then he showed me a picture of Marge Simpson wearing something similar,” Kardashian said. She added later that YE expressed love through fashion. “That’s his love language is clothes,” she explained. “I always just trusted in him, but it’s not just about clothes. That was, like, the last thing we had really in common.”

You can see what Kim wore to the Innovator Awards below.

Kanye West has of course had a longstanding interest in fashion, which he has used to help define Kim Kardashian’s style. In fact, on a new episode of The Kardashians, Kardashian says in November 2021, she started dressing herself for the first time in a decade. She chose her own outfit for a 2021 event, which did not get positive feedback from Ye.

As Yahoo! reports, on the episode, Kardashian spoke about how she was “so nervous” to pick her look for WSJ Magazine‘s 2021 Innovator Awards but went with a faux leather look from her Skims x Fendi collection.

Kardashian said, “[Kanye] called me afterwards. He told me my career’s over and then he showed me a picture of Marge Simpson wearing something similar.”

While we don’t know what specific The Simpsons image West sent to Kardashian, one Twitter user shared what looks like a good candidate:

Kardashian also noted, “I got to a point where I would ask [Kanye] for advice for everything down to what I wear. Even now I’m having panic attacks, like, what do I wear?”

She also said elsewhere in the episode, “That’s his love language, is clothes. I always just trusted in him, but it’s not just about clothes. That was, like, the last thing we had really in common. I’m trying to figure out, like, who am I in the fashion world? Who am I by myself? I was always, like, The Kardashians with my sisters and then I was, like, Kimye. Like, who is Kim K? That is the jump. How do I get there without Kanye?”

Pete Davidson: John Mulaney Suggested I Start A Rumor That Kanye Has Polio

by

After Pete Davidson’s messy yet weirdly successful year, he has returned to the stage for a stand-up special as a part of Netflix’s comedy festival. Of course, he addressed the Kanye West-sized elephant in the room. “I’ve had a really weird year,” he stated at the start of his set. Davidson’s drama has been highly-publicized, so the audience pretty much knew where this was headed.

He then joked about Kanye starting the rumor that Davidson has AIDS, saying it was an outdated joke (though AIDS is still very much a thing). “You know what’s funny about that? That’s such a 90s thing to like [say]…John Mulaney called me and was like ‘AIDS? You should start a rumor that he has polio!”” Polio, of course, has been eradicated in the US due to vaccines. But that joke could have been pretty controversial if it was in the 1950s! His Mulaney impression was pretty solid, though.

Davidson then told some jokes about fellow friends who still work with West, like rapper and longtime friend Jack Harlow. The comedian didn’t mind that Harlow worked with West on his new album, though he joked he would mind if fellow comedian Bill Burr worked with West. “It would hurt my feelings if I saw like, Bill Burr at Sunday service. I’d be like ‘What the f*ck Bill?’ He’d be like ‘Find God, Petey!’”

Davidson didn’t mention girlfriend Kim Kardashian, though he did make a quick joke about West pulling a Mrs. Doubtfire and posing as a nanny in order to see his kids. Honestly, that’s not that far off from something he would do. Check out the clip above.

Kim Kardashian Reveals That Kanye West Walked Out During ‘SNL’ Monologue

Kanye West was not laughing when Kim Kardashian made a joke at his expense while hosting “SNL.”

During the latest episode of “The Kardashians,” the Skims mogul revealed that her ex walked out while she was delivering her monologue because he was not happy with her choice of words.

“He wished I said the word ‘filed’ for divorce,” Kim told her sister Khloé, according to E! Online. “And he was upset that I also said he was a rapper. He said, ‘I’m so much more than a rapper, I can’t believe you said rapper.’”

However, Kim said her intention was not to offend the father of her four kids. “It’s all fun and games,” she said during a confessional. “And, apparently, it wasn’t to him.”

Kim did express her frustration, noting that she stood by Ye during “speeches and things that have not been the most comfortable for me.” While Kim said Kanye is “so used to getting exactly what he wants,” this time she wasn’t willing to give in to his demands. “It’s not gonna happen here,” she said.

In a previous episode of her Hulu series, Kim revealed that she nixed a joke in the “People’s Kourt” skit because she was worried that it was insensitive to Ye.

“The divorce is so sensitive for him,” Kim said. “I’m already saying that part in the monologue, I don’t want to like… maybe I could talk to Chris [Redd] and think of something funny. I could just tell him, ‘Hey! This is super sensitive to him.’”

The “SNL” monologue wasn’t the only source of upset for Ye. He previously shared his distaste when Kim kissed Pete Davidson, who she started dating after “SNL,” during an Aladdin-themed skit.

“People intentionally do things to be mean and hurt you and to be playing games, and then culturally it’s OK,” Ye told Hollywood Unlocked. “How you gonna bring me to ‘SNL’ and kiss the dude you dating right in front of me? And everybody’s like, ‘Oh, that’s cool.’”
