Kanye West compared an outfit his ex-wife, Kim Kardashian, wore at the Wall Street Journal’s Innovator Awards to something cartoon character Marge Simpson would wear.
In the latest episode of Hulu’s “The Kardashians,” Kim tells sister Kourtney Kardashian that she got to a point within her marriage where she asked West’s opinion on her outfits regularly, often having anxiety if he didn’t approve.
“I got to a point where I would ask his advice for everything down to what I wear. Even now I’m having panic attacks, like what do I wear?” the Skims founder told her older sister.
She went on to say that he styled her for her October 2021 appearance on “Saturday Night Live,” but went on to pick her own outfit.
“Were you nervous?” Kourtney interjected to ask, with Kim responding, “So nervous. Oh and then he called me afterwards. He told me my career is over and then he showed me a picture of Marge Simpson wearing something similar.”
The look in question was from Kim’s own collaboration between her brand, Skims, and Fendi. Getty Images for WSJ.

He says he will and then he’s like, ‘Well, I don’t want a divorce, so I’m not going to sign them.'”
She added during the confessional, “I’m always super protective of Kanye and not sharing a lot of the negative things that have happened just because he’s not here doing the show. Also, if I do something on a reality show, then its how dare she talk about it and then he can do it in a song and thats so creative and expressive. It’s always, like, two different sides are being expressed two different ways and one is respected and one’s not.”
