After drawing flak for her private island birthday party, Kim Kardashian revealed the special gift she received from husband Kanye West.
The reality show star and business mogul was shown a hologram of her late father for her 40th birthday, as seen in her Twitter post on Friday, Oct. 30. Robert Kardashian died in 2003.

The hologram version of Robert tells Kim multiple times that he is proud of her and refers to West as “the most, most, most, most, most genius man in the whole world.”
“You are the most, most, most, most amazing mother to your four beautiful children, and they are perfect,” the hologram says.
“Keep doing what you’re doing, Kimberly. You are a beautiful soul. Know that I am very proud of you and I’m always with you. I have built a firewall around our family.”
Robert was known for being a friend and defense attorney to former football star OJ Simpson, who would be acquitted for the double murder of his wife.
“It is so lifelike! We watched it over and over, filled with emotion,” Kim, Robert’s second child, gushed.
While Kim was touched by the gesture, some described it as “creepy” and compared it to the dystopian sci-fi series “Black Mirror.” Others scored the rapper for being a “narcissist.”
“I see Kim has upped the relatability since the private island tweet,” quipped comedian David Baddiel.
However, others defended the gift, stating that it was “thoughtful” and “one of the best gifts ever.” JB
