Kardashian fans think Kim stole Met Gala look from Kanye West’s ex- who attended event YEARS before star was invited
KIM Kardashian has been accused of stealing her Met Gala look from Kanye West’s ex Amber Rose.
Kardashian fans noticed that the 43-year-old’s blonde hair and gold dress were similar to Amber’s look years earlier in 2014.
Kim wowed at the Met Gala on Monday with slicked-back bleached-blond hair and a $5million nude gown worn by the late Marilyn Monroe.
Critics, however, claimed Amber wore a very similar look years earlier to the Grammys.
The model rocked a peroxide blonde buzzcut and wore a plunging cream and gold form-fitting gown to the awards show in 2014.
Amber dated Kanye from 2008 until 2010 and attended the Met Gala with the rapper in 2009 – years before Kim made her first appearance at the prestigious annual fashion event.

One critic pointed out the similarity between Kim’s Met Gala look and Kanye’s ex on Reddit.
They shared a close-up of Kim on the red carpet and sarcastically wrote: “Amber Rose attends the Met Gala.”
Others agreed with the resemblance, with one writing: “Omggggg she does look like Amber.”
Another posted: “Amber is prettier/younger/looks more ‘real’.”
Kim faced backlash for her Met Gala outfit, with critics claiming it didn’t match up to her long train of incredibly bold moments in previous years.
Critics claimed she looked like a “copycat Marilyn” and thought she seemed “uncomfortable” as she struggled to walk up the stairs.
KIM’S DIET
Speaking with at the Gala, Kim revealed the many hoops she had to jump through to fit into Marilyn’s iconic gown.
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum and Pete took a quick trip to Orlando, Florida, recently where the dress was being held at Ripley’s Believe It or Not!
Kim shared: “I had this idea to try it on and then they came with armed guards and gloves.”
At first, the dress didn’t fit the mom of four’s signature curves, but that didn’t stop her from wearing it.
‘SUCH A CHALLENGE’
She told the magazine: “I tried it on and it didn’t fit me. I said, ‘Give me three weeks.’ I had to lose 16 pounds today.
“It was such a challenge. It was like a [movie] role. I was determined to fit [into] it. I haven’t had carbs or sugar in about three weeks.
“We’re having pizza and doughnut party back at the hotel [after the Met Gala].”
Marilyn’s dress – which she wore to serenade John F. Kennedy in 1962 – was designed by Jean Louis and originally cost $12,000.
It wasn’t just tight on Kim – reported that the late actress allegedly had to be sewn into the dress prior to her iconic performance at Madison Square Garden.

Ripley’s purchased the gown from Julien’s Auction in November 2016, paying a shocking $4.81 million for it.
It is, to date, one of the most expensive dresses in the world.
