Anthony Hopkins roasts Kim Kardashian over 'Hannibal Lecter' SKIMS mask
Kardashian's new 'Ultimate Face' product from her shapewear line left fans in hysterics as they likened the garment to the Silence of the Lambs' villain Lecter's bite restraint mask sported by Hopkins in the 1991 film.
Hopkins, who picked up an Oscar for his portrayal of the witty cannibal, donned a nude post-surgical mask and quipped: 'Hello Kim, I'm already feeling 10 years younger. Goodbye.'
Recreating the film's legendary 'fava beans and Chianti' scene, he chillingly slurped at the end of the clip - which was captioned: 'Thank you, Kim. Don't be afraid to come over for dinner.'
Fans erupted online with one writing: 'Are you having Kim for dinner???
'The hannibal reboot didn't think we needed.
'Anthony Hopkins dissing Kim wasn't on my bingo list
'Anthony Hopkins on Instagram is the best gift of my entire life on social media.
'This is probably the most important cultural event to happen this decade.'
'Tag me when she responds to this!'
Others declared it was 'the best publicity' Kardashian could hope for.
Social media users had been incredulous over the face wrap when SKIMS announced the product this week., leaping into the comments with reactions like: 'Is it April Fools?' and: 'What in the Hannibal is this.'
'State of the world in shambles, people dying …,' wrote one commenter. 'Kim: New Hannibal Lector Nylon face wrap just dropped!!!'
'Can't tell if trolling,' 'Peak f***ery,' 'Can we agree to disagree,' and: 'What am I looking at here?' were among the other flabbergasted replies.
Fans were left in hysterics over Hopkins' video
'There's a 16 year old girl out there thinking she needs to buy this crap :),' wrote one as another said: 'SKIMS : Making women feel bad about themselves since 2018.'
'How has it come to this?' wrote a third commenter while a fourth sniggered that the 'most insane morning sheds are about to begin.'
'Kim please people are dying!!!' joked one, in reference to a viral remark Kim's sister Kourtney Kardashian made to her while she panicked over a lost earring.
Although some observers were aghast at the product, many others were seized with excitement, to the point it sold out on the SKIMS website the day of its release.
One waggish Instagram commenter wrote, however: 'If this works so well, why didn't Kris Jenner use this instead of spending thousands of dollars on a face lift?'
Kris confirmed through a representative earlier this year that her newly smoothed-out complexion was the work of Dr. Steven M. Levine, known as the 'facelift maestro.'
Internet rumor-mongers claim his patients have included Lindsay Lohan, Demi Moore and Brad Pitt, none of whom has publicly commented on the speculation.
'State of the world in shambles, people dying …,' wrote one commenter: 'Kim: New Hannibal Lector Nylon face wrap just dropped!!!'
Kim's new product launch comes after she was roundly mocked for her awkward runway walk, with fans sniggering that she looked 'drunk' or 'like a tired toddler.'
Kris proudly posted a video of Kim on the catwalk for Balenciaga at Paris Fashion Week - the brand's final show under designer Demna Gvasalia.
But although her supermodel sister Kendall Jenner is an expert at working the runway, Kim's performance left viewers falling over themselves with laughter.
One fan leapt into the comments and tagged Kendall, asking: 'can you help your sister' as another giggled: 'Go kim give us nothing.'
'This is how I walk after having 2 margaritas and I'm trying to be inconspicuous when I'm actually intoxicated,' cracked one Instagram user of Kim.
'Walking discreetly to the bathroom after eating Taco Bell,' quipped another, as another compared her to 'Me sleepwalking from the potty back to my bed at 4am.'

Kylie Jenner spends 'half a million dollars' to make new mansion more private... after stalker scares
Kylie Jenner is investing a hefty sum to protect her privacy at her new Calabasas mansion. The 27-year-old billionaire dropped $500,000 on olive trees to surround her latest property, which is wrapping up construction, according to the US Sun. Aerial photos clearly show the line of trees intended to block views of her mansion as progress on it continued. The Kylie Cosmetics founder purchased the land from Miley Cyrus for $15 million in 2020. And after five years, the palatial residence is nearly complete. Kylie currently resides in another luxe abode nearby, her $36 million home that's tucked away in LA's Hidden Hills enclave — which is also part of Calabasas. Once it's done, Kylie's latest real estate investment will boast a 12-car underground garage and bunker. And per The Sun, the sprawling structure will have 15 bedrooms, a court for sports and a huge pool. The 30,000-sq-ft modern farm house was designed by top Canadian architect Richard Landry on a four-acre lot. The main house is expected to be around 18,000-square-feet, according to Architectural Digest, and one of the other structures will be a smaller guest house. Kylie — who has had to deal with stalkers in the past — will also have a building created to house her security team as they watch over her land. The mother-of-two will live at the home with daughter Stormi, seven, and son Aire, three, whom she shares with ex-boyfriend Travis Scott, 34. She is now dating actor Timothée Chalamet, 29, who will also likely spend a good amount of time premises. The reality television personality was active on Instagram Monday, posting photos as she prepared to do a photo shoot for her Khy clothing brand. For the work day she was casually dressed in a dark sports bra, black Nike track pants, and platform sandals from ERL. She wrote across a mirror selfie, featuring her raven locks in a messy ponytail, 'The energy I'm bringing to my shoot today.' The multi-hyphenate also teased new pieces from Khy, which she launched in nearly two years ago in November 2023. One outfit consisted of a black off-the-shoulder top and matching skintight leggings. Another look was a tiny, body-hugging, strapless heather gray mini dress, into which the Kardashians star snugly slipped her famous curves.

Johnny Carson's third wife Joanna warmly remembered as 'wonderful' following her death at 93
Joanna Carson, the third wife of late comedy legend Johnny Carson, is being fondly remembered by her friends after her death at 93 last month. Joanna's death was revealed to her friends in July, and she was laid to rest last week in a funeral service, Extra reported Monday. The Elizabeth Taylor AIDS Foundation honored the late model in a Facebook post on July 30, saying she and late philanthropist Wallis Annenberg embodied the 'spirit of love and support' the organization's famed founder had in mind. Joanna, who grew up in New York, was previously married to Tim Holland, a backgammon player, for six years. Following their split, she began modeling and eventually met the NBC late night king, who was 15 years her senior and had been twice wed before. Johnny Carson - who hosted The Tonight Show from 1962 until 1992, died January 23, 2005 at the age of 79. His name has been in the headlines as of late in connection with the cancellation of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert. Numerous media analysts have pointed out the tendency of Johnny Carson - who single-handedly dominated late night ratings for three decades - to not veer off too far politically so as not to alienate a large chunk of potential viewers. Joanna was well-remembered on the Facebook page, as a user named Trey Wilson described her and the late Wallis Annenberg as 'extraordinary women' who were 'born into different family systems faiths and traditions. They ultimately 'both used their gifts and talents to help people and animals that are discounted,' Wilson said, adding, 'They both helped me remember my moral compass.' .

'You mother******': Elvis's drug-fueled rage erupts in newly published private letters
To Elvis Presley's greatest fan, the King of Rock 'n' Roll was immortal. 'Elvis didn't die,' his manager Colonel Tom Parker insisted to a reporter in the days after Presley passed. 'The body did. I talked with him this morning, and he told me to carry on.' 'Colonel', as Elvis called him (and as Parker always referred to himself), refused to accept that music's biggest star was extinguished.
