Kim Kardashian's $220,000 bed is just the beginning
Kim Kardashian has changed a lot in recent years. Over time we have seen her with different looks.
Either because of her uncomfortable and extravagant looks or because of her controversial posts on social networks, the businesswoman has been under the spotlight on many occasions. Here are some of the most controversial moments that she has starred in.
Kim Kardashian wore Marilyn Monroe's dress to the 2022 Met Gala
On May 2, 2022, the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York reopened its doors to welcome celebrities, who exuded style and elegance. For the occasion, Kim decided to dress in a beautiful dress from the historical archive of designer Jean Louis.
Said dress belonged to the legendary Marilyn Monroe and she wore it on May 19, 1962, during a fundraiser at Madison Square Garden. The event went down in history because the actress sang 'Happy Birthday' to the then President of the United States, John F. Kennedy.
In this regard, the founder of Skims not only received criticism for wearing a garment with historical value but also because she underwent an intense diet to lose 16 pounds in three weeks and be able to wear the dress, according to what she declared.
In her Instagram stories, actress Lili Reinhart (star of the series 'Riverdale') criticized Kardashian's weight loss, but without mentioning the name of her socialite.
“Openly admitting that you are starving yourself for the sake of the Met Gala when you know full well that millions of young men and women look up to you and listen to your every word. Walking on a red carpet and doing an interview where you say how hungry you are…because you've been eating us carbs in the last month…all to fit into a dress? , was part of what the celebrity wrote back then.
On the other hand, artist and curator Chad Michael Christian Morisette, who has had access to Monroe's dress since 1999, said in an interview for Univision Famosos on June 14, 2022, that he "could not believe what he had seen."
“It has been protected and preserved (the dress) since 1962, with reverence and love for all who touch it, and the blatantly vulgar damage is so obvious to that delicate fabric and historical piece. It's a piece of American history that was ruined."
After this, Kim broke the silence to talk about her weight loss for the Met Gala. On June 1, 2022, in an interview for 'The New York Times', she responded to criticism and compared herself to Hollywood actors.
"For me, it was like, 'Okay, Christian Bale can do it for a movie role and that's fine.' Even Renée Zellweger gained weight for a role. It's the same, it's not like she's saying 'hey everyone, why don't you go and lose this weight in a short period,' ”she said.
