Lucifer’s Homegirl celebrated 60 years on earth as Satan’s minion. For her birthday, Kris Jenner’s daughters threw her an absolutely enormous (and costly) party with a Great Gatsby-theme. Of course they did. Every attendee came in Roaring Twenties costume, and if you’ve been looking through some of the Kardashian-Jenner Instagrams, you’ve seen tons of photos from inside the bash. Apparently, all the girls had been planning this for their mom for “months.”
Several of the Kardashian-Jenner women wore wigs, but Kris Jenner’s wig was absolutely the worst. It is my strong belief that few women can pull off bangs, and even fewer women can pull off baby bangs and that kind of sleek bob haircut. Kris Jenner is not one of them. But she seems like she was having a good time and she probably loved that the evening was all about her. Kourtney Kardashian was the only lady not doing a flapper dress – Kourtney came as Jay Gatsby. And it sort of worked.
Tons of people came out for the party too. Guests ranged from Kanye West, Kathy Hilton, Chrissy Teigen, John Legend, Harry Hamlin, Will Smith, Jada Pinkett Smith, Ryan Seacrest, Tyga, Tommy Hillfiger, Kyle Richards, Boy George, Melanie Griffith, Olivier Rousteing, Lisa Rinna, Corey Gamble and Jonathan Cheban. The girls even put together a special video for their mom and Kris was even crying at the party because she was so happy. Caitlyn Jenner didn’t come, apparently? But Caitlyn did make a special video for Kris too, which was nice.

hey! Kim’s make up ain’t half bad! and flowy dresses suit her more. she doesn’t look half struggling to breathe.
and probably one of the prettiest in the lineup!
Agreed.
I’m going to be nice about them for once: the party itself looked very pretty and the girls looked good too. Love Kourtney in a tux, she stands out nicely.
is it worth $2 million? that’s insane
@Fee I dislike when others put their own standards on what money should be spent on, on others. $2M is a drop in the bucket for them.
@loulou
Its not a standard, its an opinion. MY opinion on having hundreds of moldy flowers n 2 mill is crazy to celebrate a party. It goes to show their inane need to look opulant, while ignoring the crap they leave behind,but hey, that’s jmo
Kim looks beautiful, and I love how all the other girls look, too!
Is this a sign of the Apocalypse??? LOL
They all look gorgeous, so pretty and sparkly. I love the retro theme, just stunning. Kris looks ecstatic. She will have great memories always of what her daughters did for her 60th birthday. I envy the photos they’ll have from this party.
I will bet Kris had a stylist working with a designer(s) to make all the KrapTrashian outfits. As a result it was not Kanye telling Kim what to wear. First time she has looked good in years!
I have to agree.
Yeap!
And you might want to kill me now… but I think Kanye looks decent. (PS. Oh, I see t.fanty thinks so too)
Ironically, birthday golden girl looks scary *shivers*
And Kim’s dress is Marchesa! What do you know… They made her look lovely.
It’s ironic that they all look so good for a theme party, yet on their daily lives they look like they’re trying to walk incognito on Skid row…they should dress like they’re going to a retro bash more often. As for Kenny…all i can think of is that scene on Titanic : “…it’s amazing! you could almost pass for a gentleman!…” …LOL…https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rNjQgZvaMT0
Even Cecil the Turtle got all dressed up! :O
The Kardashians doing a Gatsby party = the epitome of irony.
Much as it pains me to say anything about this massive insult to a beautiful book, Kanye actually looks really good in his velvet suit. (He also doesn’t look like he’s regretting every life decision that brought him to this point, which is a massive improvement on his usual sourpuss face.)
“Epitome of irony” yup. Sadly, they don’t get it.
Do people like this, the types to throw themselves a $2 million Gatsby themed party, and want everyone to know that they (E!) threw a possibly $2 million party, ever read the damn book? Do they understand it? Wha– Why would you– First, do those types realize that you can have a Jazz Age, Art Deco, Roaring Twenties, “dress like a flapper” party without calling it a Gatsby party? That these things were not invented in that book and existed independently of it? And oh the irony. I think people like a Gatsby theme because even if they’ve never read it they know it’s synonymous with wealth and decadence. It is. But not quite in the way that they think 😀 We’re talking about a novel that deals with the nouveau riche, decadence and excess, rampant infidelity, fatal car accidents, murder, the drawbacks of the American Dream, societal expectations and gender roles, (and a shallow, self-obsessed debutante and our protagonist’s inappropriate obsession with a her), etc., You could laugh if it didn’t fly so far over their heads.
As a massive fan of that book, I concur.
And the header pic of Kris is freaking me out!
I live about a mile and half from where F. Scott Fitzgerald grew up and I think he wrote that book based on his own experiences. E! should be ashamed of paying so much for this party and how they got the Smiths to show up is beyond me. Yuk.
In my top 5 favorite books of all time.
Education isn’t big with this Klan. If it’s true that Rebel refused to host with the two blank eyed youngest ones, then it’s the BEST THING that’s happened to pop culture in this decade. Why should a real thespian stand up with barely literate self-promoters? Ugh. Plus the family photo shoots haven’t come very far in terms of aesthetics since they all wore white oxford shirts and bleached mom jeans…blandastic and lacking soul as usual!
It’s an amazing book, and one that I love, but wow, I would never use it as a party theme. Talk about ignorance and irony! As you state, I doubt any one of them has actually read it, and my guess is if they have, they certainly missed the social commentary that Fitzgerald was making, and instead thought is was a how-to manual. To your point, Amber, make the theme the roaring 20’s, Jazz Age, Prohibition era bootleggers, whatever, but the Gatsby theme is unintentionally ironic and hilarious.
Now something nice, they all look good (except PMK’s wig), and Kim looks lovely, and much more comfortable for a change, and I really like Kourtney’s look.
As a retired English teacher, I know that many people have never read the book nor care to, and no one in this family seems hell bent on education.
But they are (unapologetically) nouveau riche, decadent, excessive, questionably faithful, shallow and self-obsessed, and an good argument could be made that the public is inappropriatly obsessed with them. I’d call it more fitting than ironic-maybe this is some meta joke on themselves? In any case they are laughing their way to the bank as we laugh at them … what would Fitzgerald make of the Kardashians?
@Birdix,
Fitzgerald would bring Zelda in a bob and sparkly dress, and they would drink up all the booze, pour the rest of it into the swimming pool, call the cops for a noise complaint, and then drive away, laughing.
Of course, they didn’t read the book. They based it on latest Gatsby movie! In many ways they are Jay Gatsby. Come from nowhere, fought their way up in life, all to “fit in”. Which, of course they will never do. Kendall might eventually if she marries out of the Koven circle.
I actually think the theme perfectly suits them. “decadence and excess”–say no more. We all know how Daisy and Tom behaved, tell me that doesn’t go perfectly with the Kardashians. How many broken lives have they left their wake? They just carelessly move on, because the only thing that matters to them is money. They have sold their souls for fame and fortune. I love a good 20’s theme and all things art deco, and while this party was aesthetically beautiful in my opinion, it also kind of turned my stomach because they’re just so ridiculous in their opulence nowadays; the 18-year-old with multiple $100,000 trucks and 15 Cartier bracelets that *start* at $6,000 a piece; there are so many other examples. Tim Gunn is in the news for referring to them as tasteless, and it really is fitting. The Kardashians might not be old money, but if there was ever a group of people who threw a Gatsby-themed party and completely fit the bill of the soul of that book and how money really corrupts, I would say it was this family.
Yay AMBER and everyone else who read the book! It’s funny how Gatsby goes right over their heads. The K’s do not / cannot read, but they saw the costumes in the Gatsby mooovie!
$2 million is an obscene amount of money to rip up for one evening. And they made sure everyone knew how much it kost! Personally I would find it easier to stomach this excess if some tiny shred of it benefited someone else.
Glad to know someone else caught that. Clearly none of them have read the book.
That’s the best Kim has looks her whole pregnancy!
Yep. She looks great and not so uncomfortable that it hurts me to look at her which is the usual deal.
Big Gatsby fan here, and I’d kill for this party. The dresses are fantastic. As sad as present-day Kylie Jenner makes me, THAT GOWN. Good lord. I’d wear it everywhere.
Yes that gown is everything. Who knew?
That does look super fun- sad that most of us will never get to go to a party like that.
Didn’t Kim wear that dress before? Looks familiar. For my 60th birthday, my daughters threw me a party but it consisted of bbq, homeafe sides and a small cake with a picture of me when I was about 2. Good friends, good food and good times.
That sounds like a lovely party. Much better than an over the top Kardashian gala.
It was WONDERFUL and not a lot of money had to be spent to make it that way.
This video they did for her is a mess… Can’t believe I wasted my time watching it 🙈😩
Kim looks good with that hairstyle. Jada looks fierce! Why are Kendall and Kylie posing like they are a couple? Finally a photo that shows Tyga can close his mouth!
Edit: Looked at the photo again and Tyga’s mouth is open
Another freaking wall of flowers!!!
They love their walls of roses.
Looks like a great party. I have to admit, Kris Jenner looks great for 60 and after 6 kids.
You understand that most of her looks are due to plastic surgery.
Yeah but many celebs look AWFUL after plastic surgery.Kris’ plastic surgeons do good work.
Many point is that it’s not natural and there are many women out there at 60 who look just as good without plastic surgery.
Agreed, say what you want about her but she looks amazing, who cares if she had surgery? Seriously, some people and their obsession with pointing that out.
Twink, I’m not obsessed with pointing it out – first time actually as she can do what she wants. But I will praise those who keep it natural (no plastic surgery and gobs of make up) over those who don’t. I’d rather age naturally than to have jacked up my face all in the name of beauty
I’ve always wondered why she had so many pregnancies, being as shallow and vain as she is. She couldn’t have predicted in the 80s the advances on technology and plastic surgery that would make them all famous. so was she more maternal back then? Did she actually love children and want as many as possible?
Wow, Bettyrose. My mind is blown. I feel like my face looks like that young picture of Keanu Reeves that’s always used to illustrate the feeling. I guess it’s a distinct possibility!
Awww, yeah, maybe. NOPE! Two words: Child support. It’s not like she was whacking out kids with just anyone, she had children with a world famous attorney and a millionaire Olympian (whose financial woes she didn’t know about until after they were married). She was investing in her future because she’d played into the whole expendable trophy wife lifestyle.
That’s not to say she doesn’t love kids. Say what you want about the woman but she legitimately seems to enjoy her grandkids and from the little I’ve seen of her she’s very concerned with making memories for her family. But I doubt she popped out six babies for the sake of it.
Miffy,
Robert Kardashian wasn’t a world famous attorney. He had a law degree and ran a recording promotion company. His parents were in the meat packing business. He was friends with OJ, however. He activated his law license in order to be helpful to OJ during the trial. Many people think that he disposed of crucial evidence.
Children were the glue she used to attach herself to rich men. She had four children with Robert Kardashian only because the first three were girls and she needed to provide a son. Likewise, she probably had two with Bruce in a try for a boy. She damaged all her children with abuse and neglect, so no maternal instincts there.
What, no JLaw?
But she is in the video
Sorry, I didn’t see the video. So JLaw is truly in the Klan.
But… Was Kris’s only son (Rob) there?
Enquiring minds wanna know!!!
Good question. Haven’t seen a photo of him or heard a mention of him being there. He’s had some issues so maybe after what happened to Lamar he checked himself into rehab?
DM says he was absent. Maybe he’s with Shelley.
I like the title of this post and think it should be applied to any and all Kardashian/Jenner coverage.
“A Kardashian/Jenner does/wears/says something: ugh.”
And takes a lot of selfies doing it.
Yeah, the Louise Brooks look isn’t for everyone.
Louise Brooks rocked the $h!t out of it.
And Louise B. was A LOT younger too!
…NONE of those desses are falpper dresses, though, save for Kendall.
OMG
I like the outfits. Seriously that has be the best everyone of them ever looked.
Jada Pinkett Smith´s outfit…no thanks. I first thought she is Kim. I´m shocked that Kim looks classier! Seriously Jada´s outfit looks like something pregnant Kim would wear for a red carpet
And Beyonce’s mom Tina Lawson was there! The Kardashians are really on the come up
Tina and Kris are friends.Kris attended Tina’s masquerade ball. That doesn’t mean Beyonce and Kim are friends though.
Absolutely. Beyonce is a quiet introverted personality and she keeps her circle tight. Kim & her klan couldnt weasle in, even after marrying the co-President of the Beyhive (Kendrick Lamar and Kanye are clearly sharing that post) so I doubt it will ever happen.
No the Katrashians are not on the come up – Tina is just showing her true colors, ask anyone in Houston.
If Kris’ cheekbone implants go any higher, her eyes will be in her forehead. She must have resented that Caitlyn got those new cheeks. This is not what 60 looks like unless your Kris Jenner or rip Joan Rivers. She doesn’t have the courage to age naturally.
Raquel Welch is 75 and still looks gorgeous. Whoever her plastic surgeon is has done a great job. She doesn’t look freakish or catlike, just beautiful as she always has been.
Raquel is beautiful.I am sorry Kris, not so much.It look’s like her nose is going to cave in.It look’s like it was a nice party for the most part.That is all I got.I can’t say too many nice things about this family.
Looks like Kris got new fillers for her birthday too. Yuck.
Kim does look pretty. There I said something nice.
Kourtney is awesome for wearing a suit.
Yes, she looks amazing!
Kourtney & Kendall look the best…non-plastic.
I think Kourtney looks really cute.
My favourite outfit of the klan tbh.
Love to hate these people but I must say I love the look of this party. The roaring 20’s Art Deco look is beautiful and the gowns are gorgeous. Kylie’s is my favorite, it’s stunning. The best photo I’ve seen is of PMK passed out in the backseat on the way home. Guess it was past the bewitching hour for Lucifer’s girl.
Lol.That is funny.Didn’t see those picture’s.
What a waste of money that could have been used for needy causes. I can’t stand the excess of these people. Since when did the A list Will Smith, John Legend, etc hang with the D list reality crew? Sorry, I don’t feel like being nice today. Same family, same PR crap, same filming for crap reality show.
Since Kris threatened them with demonic possession, judging by some of their facial expressions.
Will and Jada look like they just woke up, and desperately want out.
Well, that’s f-cking appropriate, isn’t it?
Horrid folks, all of ’em. They have no clue.
Yes, it is so appropriate for this family — they’re the modern version of terrible people doing terrible things that Gatsby is about. How do people that throw Gatsby-themed parties miss this irony? It’s a cynical book, folks, not aspirational.
A “pimps & hos” themed party would be appropriate for them, too. Right up their alley.
IMO Kris Jenner is a horrible, horrible person. The fact that she has pimped her way into phenomenal wealth is nothing I admire. It seems she has been a very destructive influence on her children, her husbands, her (ugh) lovers, her sons-in-law and anyone else unfortunate enough to fall within her orbit.
My favorite “birthday photo” of this evil person is the one of her passed out dead drunk in the backseat of the limo after the party.
Ugh, I loathe all of this crew; I don’t care if they looked nice for the party or not.
So much effort. So much money.
SO.MUCH. MAKE.UP.
I always cringe when celebrities throw away that amount of money on a private themed bday party.
I know they earned the cash but to see to what length they go to to show their wealthy status -guests included- I see it as an insult
Actually that video was a collaboration of all the sisters, not Caitlyn. On People’s website they explained that Kris made herself a music video for her 30th birthday while she was still married to Robert Kardashian (his name is featured in the credits). It’s basically an entire video about how much her friends love her because Kris was narcissistic even back then. OJ Simpson appears several times in that video along with I’m assuming Nicole Brown Simpson.
The daughters decided to remake that video again with the same song (based on a song called I Love LA) and that is why Caitlyn appears in the video.
Omg I love Kourtney! Did Rob’s invitation get lost or…?
The other guests probably had fun. The Ks, though, their time never looks fun. They just obsess over posing, taking photos and selfies…I wonder if they do any interacting besides that and air kissing?
The video… Oh my lord, worst thing I’ve ever seen!!!
There are some pictures that you see that remind you that Kim’s really pretty, but anyway, as has been said many times over, this family is a blight on the highest aspirations of humanity and singlehandedly launched the latest wave of the the idiocracy, which continues to gain a foothold over human reason, intelligence, and dignity in the era of social media. They’re so stupid (by choice) that they don’t get why they’re so embarrassing.
and Tina Knowles was there calling Kris a great mother and a smart woman! What?? Tina is really desperate to be invited to Hollyweird parties. Tina woke up in the morning , prayed and asked forgiveness for her lies! Go figure……pathetic people.
yes to those who rightly point up the irony in the whole affair. Fitzgerald’s Gatsby is a poser, a phony, a social climber. He’s also stuck in time and can’t let go of the past. He’s a wounded soul who’s imposed his dream onto the unattainable Daisy, who’s married to a sexist adulterer. Daisy and Gatsby are reckless people who get away with murder but end up broken and/or bereft if not destroyed. So I guess it kind of works.
She is only 60? She has accomplished a lot and she must have had her kids early-ish.
That woman is the most blatant example of a narcissistic personality disorder. Feel bad for all her kids. But dammit watching her stupidity makes me laugh like nothing else. You can totally tell how miserable and transparent this desperate woman is. Thirsty much?
Normally I’ll cosign Kardashian bashing on general principle.
But my integrity is going to win out on this one. I think Kris looks great, the party looks fun, Kourtney is rocking that suit, and I’m not going to throw shade on this woman’s 60th birthday party because let her have it as a wonderful pm and memory..
There Santa. Please don’t skip my house this Christmas.
Were the E cameras there to capture it all? No way did the kids pay for this supposedly $2 million party.
It was paid by the product placements they execute post-party, placements on social media. Expect lots of #blessed #60young hashtags with the #brand ones.
Kardashian version of “planning” a party:
Random K: (snapping insistently): “You, you there!”
Unfortunate Assistant: “Yes my liege?”
Random K: E! is insisting we throw my mother a party. Obviously I can’t plan it because that means I would have to stop taking selfies and being vapid for several hours, so you’re going to do it. What’s the most decadent, over-the top theme you can think of?”
Unfortunate Assistant (snickering to themselves): “How about ‘The Great Gatsby?’ That would be perfect!”
Random K: “You mean the movie with Leo? With lots of sparkly things, diamonds, and champagne? Perfect! Now get to work, her birthday is tomorrow.”
I laughed at the irony!
“They were careless people, Tom and Daisy. They smashed up things and people, and then retreated back into their money, or their vast carelessness, or whatever it was that kept them together, and left other people to clean up the mess they had made.”
Is Jada’s dress see-through?
They all look great in the old styles. Kim should stay in the 1920s fashionwise. Even Tyga looks good.
I’ve seen the two million dollar price tag for the party tossed around, with claims that her kids shared the cost. Doubt that. The party was certainly designed for the show, just like Kim’s second wedding and all their fancy vacations. The E! network paid for it, I’m sure. They very likely paid people (especially the famous ones) to appear as “guests”.
Kourtney dresses like that no matter what the event. Especially the white blouse with big bow.
Why are Kendall and Kylie grabbing each others’ butts?
Her obsession with acting like she is 30 years old is HILARIOUS!!!!! Wearing Kanye’s fashion line and other clothes that are WAY too young for her makes her look like what she is – AN OLD FOOL. She is utterly ridiculous.
