Kim Kardashian is under fire after wearing the outfit from Janet Jackson’s iconic “If” music video she previously won from an auction held in honor of the Queen of Pop.
Kardashian had previously scored the rare find during a 2021 auction held by Julien’s celebrity auction house. The black two-piece fringe ensemble outfit sold for a staggering $25,000.
After winning the iconic item, KK took to social media in 2021 to share her excitement about her win and received a response from the icon herself, sending her blessing to Kim.

On Monday, Kim found the perfect opportunity to wear the outfit as she attended the opening night of Janet’s ‘Together Again’ Tour as it debuted its 2024 run at the Acrisure Arena in Palm Desert, CA.
As we previously told you, Kim was in attendance at the sold-out show alongside her sister, Khloe Kardashian and mom, Kris Jenner.

As expected with Kim’s actions, the people were not happy with her and took to social media calling her everything from a “culture vulture” and more.
