Kanye Gifts Kim A Cringe-Worthy Hologram Of Her Late Father
Kanye West really took gift-giving to a whole new level for his wife’s birthday. The rapper ditched the traditional flowers, car, or Birkin bag and opted to give Kim the one thing she probably never thought she could have — another moment with her late father, Robert Kardashian (in the form of a hologram).
In theory, the gift was the absolute sweetest gesture. However, in execution, it was a bit cringy … although, it doesn’t seem Mrs. West thought so. KK posted a video of the thoughtful present, thanking her husband for what she called “a special surprise from heaven.”

The 2 minute message from hologram Rob showered Kim with praise for following in his legal footsteps and for being an amazing mom. There was even a moment when the hologram doted on ‘Ye calling him “the most, most, most, most, most, genius in the whole world.”
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 ✨ Here’s a more close up view to see the incredible detail. pic.twitter.com/XpxmuHRNok

Clearly, Kanye put a lot of energy and effort into getting the most lifelike hologram money could buy. According to TMZ, “Kanye spent a lot of time in the studio pouring over old video and audio of Robert to bring the vision to life, and AI was used to finish off the project, which Kanye started in early September.”
A hologram, plus a million dollar private island getaway — Kim definitely had an unforgettable 40th birthday.
