    People On Twitter Are Roasting Kim Kardashian For Buying Princess Diana's Necklace, And I'm SCREAMING

    Kim rn: 🤑💰📿💅✨

    In case you missed it, last week, Kim Kardashian bought the Attallah Cross, which was famously worn by Princess Diana.

    The star has established a history of seeking out valuables once owned by other high-profile celebrities, and some people are worried about what that means for the preservation of the artifacts themselves.

    Last year, Kim received ample criticism for wearing Marilyn Monroe's "Happy Birthday Mr. President" dress to the Met Gala, and in 2019, she faced pushback for purchasing Michael Jackson's hat and jacket as a gift for her daughter North.

    Well, once word came out about the buying of Princess Diana's necklace, people took to social media to poke fun at the star and her costly purchases. It all started when Pop Base, a popular Twitter account that posts pop culture–related news, shared the tweet shown below:

    The post became a meme format, spawning dozens of tweets about some of Kim's other "purchases" — all fictional, of course. You'll see what I mean. So, without further ado, here are 21 of the best tweets I've seen so far, in no particular order:
