Kim's iconic MET Gala look
For this year's MET Gala theme - 'Camp: Notes on Fashion', Kim went all out and left us in awe. The reality star managed to get famous French designer Thierry Mugler out of retirement and get him to create an iconic look, which we are sure will go down in history as one her most iconic looks. She looked like she had just stepped out of the pool, and by the pool, we mean one made of crystals. She looked dripping wet and smoking hot at the same time. The latex corseted dress took eight months to make and the craftsmanship and vision of Mugler is awe-inspiring.
Khloe and Tristan split

The audience burst into laughter after hearing their little speech leaving the sisters looking awkward on the stage.

The oldest Kardashian sibling, Kourtney, was always the subject of jokes about not having a passion or a job and was often called out for being "the least exciting to look at" by her sisters.
