We’ve already covered how Kim Kardashian West used her insane wealth to sweep friends and family away to a private island so she could celebrate her 40th birthday in the style of a totally tone-death multi-millionaire escaping worldwide pandemic. Now, we’ve learned how her husband, Kanye West, used their resources to celebrate his wife. It’s—I don’t know—very on-brand.
He had a hologram made of her dead father, Robert Kardashian Sr., so that the ghost-dad hologram could wish her a happy birthday.
Of course, she posted this on social media, because if she didn’t post it, did it even happen?
Take a look at her “special surprise from heaven.”
For my birthday, Kanye got me the most thoughtful gift of a lifetime. A special surprise from heaven. A hologram of my dad. ✨🤠It is so lifelike! We watched it over and over, filled with emotion. pic.twitter.com/jD6pHo17KC

The hologram recounted details from Kardashian’s childhood, like listening to “Who Put The Bop” together. The hologram then praised her for her entrepreneurship and her striving to follow in his footsteps as a lawyer. Memorably, the late Kardashian was on O.J. Simpson’s defense team. Then, the hologram talks about Kayne:
You married the most, most, most, most, most genius man in the whole world, Kanye West.
The hologram then goes onto say she is “the most, most, most, most, most amazing mother” to children who are “perfect.” The hologram then said he had built a “firewall around our family” before bursting into—what?—pixels? fire? stardust?
Twitter users had thoughts.
As much as I disrespect your decision to hold a birthday party when you could have donated some of that to medical workers PPE, I know how much this meant to you and I would move heaven and earth and pay anything to see just a hologram of my dad.

WHATEVER YOU DO, DO NOT WATCH KIM KARDASHIAN'S DAD HOLOGRAM VIDEO, WONDER WHAT A 'PEEFEE' IS (AFTER HE SAYS IT), THEN GOOGLE IT.

The Robert Kardashian hologram thing is objectively hilarious. Kanye made Kim Kardashian’s hologram dad say he was proud of her for marrying the greatest musical genius in the world. Absolutely amazing.

Kim Kardashian getting a hologram of her dead dad while millions of Americans didn’t even get to tell their parents goodbye or go to their funerals thanks to COVID is too on the nose.

I postponed my dad's funeral twice, and finally canceled it altogether.

Glad you had fun, humble girl.
it’s sad that we have to kick Kim Kardashian out of the Dead Dad Club, but pete davidson and I took a vote
