Media and beauty mogul Kim Kardashian celebrated her 40th birthday some days ago and her superstar rapper husband Kanye West gave her an unforgettable gift, a hologram of her late father Robert Kardashian.
The reality TV star, who is ending Keeping Up With The Kardashians next year, enjoyed lavish celebrations for her birthday. On Thursday, she shared a video of a hologram of Robert, 59, who died of cancer in 2003.
Kim tweeted: “For my birthday, Kanye got me the most thoughtful gift of a lifetime. A special surprise from heaven. A hologram of my dad.”
“It is so lifelike! We watched it over and over, filled with emotion,” Kim said. “I can’t even describe what this meant to me and my sisters, my brother, my mom and closest friends to experience together. Thank you so much Kanye for this memory that will last a lifetime.”
In the video she shared on Twitter, ‘Robert’ said: ‘You’re 40 and all grown up, you look beautiful just like when you were a little girl. I watch over you and your sisters and brother and your kids every day.”
The father hologram congratulated Kim for her hard work and the business she launched over the years. Robert also praised her for “connecting to your roots and supporting Armenia”.
“Most impressive is your commitment to become a lawyer and carry on my legacy,” her dad went on; referring to Kim’s recent efforts towards prison reform.
Robert also called the rapper “the most most most most most genius man in the whole world”. The video ended with him telling Kim to tell her siblings – Khloe, Kourtney and Robert – that he loves them and ‘don’t forget to say your prayers’.
