Kim K's Aaliyah Halloween costume gets backlash from fans

For Halloween this year, Kim Kardashian decided to pay homage to some musical legends by dressing up like them, but one particular look generated mixed reactions on Twitter.

The reality star channeled Cher, Madonna, and Aaliyah, but some fans of the late African-American singer felt it was offensive for Kim to dress up as Aaliyah. Some were concerned about the fact that Kim looked extra tan as she dressed up like Aaliyah, who was a black woman and they called her out for it.
But there were a number of people who felt Kim did nothing wrong and these people came to her defense. This generated a debate on Twitter about race, cultural appropriation, and double standards, with some people pointing out that black people dress up as white people for Halloween all the time.
One fan wrote: "Legend or not Aaliyah is a black woman and you’re not. It’s offensive and you shouldn’t push this limit, but ok,"
Another fan came to Kim's defense and wrote: "She dressed up as a musical artist, no blackface, nothing offensive. Y’all love to hate and reach for nothing stop it. It’s Halloween."
