Still makes her an egotistical dumbass for deciding to destroy a dress she had no right trying to fit in.
Also "Find god?" The fuck do you think you are with that?
Oh you are a Kanye stan, guess that explains the idiocy
"Had no right trying to fit in" lmao it's a dress that I'm sure she paid to put on, so she had every right to try to fit in it. You're seething over a 60 yr old dress but I'm the one being an idiot? Have a good day.
I can't believe they actually let her wear such a iconic item at all let alone let her wear it to an event.
Such a horrible family.
Such a horrible family.
they honestly shouldn't been allowed to bid. oh well. should've been a donation. oh well. greed sucks.
Im going to venture to guess that the Smithsonian probably wouldn't have loaned it out to a celebrity for a photo op. Ripley's got exactly what they wanted out of this. A bunch of free publicity. And not they want to pretend that the dress was some priceless sacred artifact. Fuck outta here.
I'm not even mad about that, I just personally find the "find god" comment to be ignorant, disgusting and pathetic tbh which is no surprise if you picked it up from a piece of shit like Kanye. Maybe learn some better language.
They literally gave her the right. Do you think she stole the dress?
Some of you need to go outside and get some air.
She had NO RIGHT!
SHE HAD NO RIGHT! 😭😭😭
the people who own the dress have eyes and access to google they knew damn well she wasn't gonna fit.
I don't think anyone is to blame. Its just a thing that happened, not some tragedy. If the owners of the dress treated it as cavalierly as they did in the search for publicity and attention, why should anyone else give a shit about it?
Yah the replies calling her human garbage and all that…..I just don't know about this board anymore guys.
I feel like despite being billed as 'the progressive forum for video games' I see raging misogyny here every single day, unchecked.
Why give her the dress in the first place is all that should be considered. She can wear whatever. Doesn't mean she and the entire Kardashian/Jenner family still isn't absolutely awful, but this over a dress isn't part of that.
People don't dislike her because she is a woman. They dislike her because she is a terrible person who is apart of a terrible family.
Interesting.
Why is she so terrible?
I mean, if you want something to stay pristine you shouldn't let people wear it. Kim could have fit the dress perfectly and took every precaution and someone else could have spilled a drink on it or some shit. I don't even know why this is in the news or titled this way when I think it's the fools who lent it out that are at fault more than anyone. And I know famous people often get to do this with clothes or jewelry and my answer's the same, don't lend out things you aren't willing to lose.
User Warned: Thread Whining
On the list of things I couldn't give less of a fuck about this would probably be up there
So what was the damage exactly? Some stones fell off? They don't own bedazzler?
I'd argue spending millions of dollars on a dress is a waste.
You can't say no to a rich person. They get whatever they want.
Ah, yes. Marilyn Monroe, the epitome of class having an affair with a man who was married with children.
Attractiveness =/= Class
I'm kind of weirded out by the Monroe/Kennedy relationship being put on a pedestal tbh
Personally I don't think Monroe deserves the revrance that she gets. What in particular is so special about her or the dress?
same, she didn't really need to do this. this dress is a part of pop culture history...
I don't think anybody in here is putting it in a pedestal VS acknowledging that it was a thing.
She was an incredibly gifted actress that only worked for a little over a decade before she died. Especially adept at comedy with some of the best comedies of all time under her belt.
You can choose to limit her story to just that, but I like to remember the story about what she did for Ella Fitzgerald:
Marilyn Monroe's extraordinarily kind gesture that helped Ella Fitzgerald's career
CNN examined the life of iconic actress Marilyn Monroe during a three-hour special on Sunday
