Remember the time Kanye kidnapped Kenny G and had him perform in the middle of a room full of roses as a Valentine's gift to Kim Kardashian? Well, we didn't think it was possible, but he really one-upped himself with his latest stunt. At Kim's extravagant birthday getaway on some private island, Kanye arranged a simulated reunion with her dead dad. Yup. Kim and her sisters were led into a dark room to greet a holographic deepfake of Robert Kardashian doing a (totally human) little dance and delivering a bizarre monologue from heaven about how much he misses the family and what a genius Kanye West is.

Almost immediately after Kim tweeted a video of the hologram, Twitter predictably exploded with jokes and bewilderment. You'd think that by now we'd all be immune to bizarre and outrageous cultural events, but man, this demented year keeps delivering the weirdness at an impressive rate. We've put together some of the best Twitter reactions to the garish birthday gift.

Pop star Justin Bieber is swiftly approaching Kanye-levels of attention seeking. The 25 year old pop star sent a bizarre tweet last night challenging the 56 year old actor to a UFC match. 

"I wanna challenge Tom Cruise to fight in the octagon. Tom if you dont take this fight your scared and you will never live it down. Who is willing to put on the fight?" 

The strange tweet went viral very, very quickly - and has inspired a good old-fashioned roasting of the ballsy pop star. We're definitely Team Cruise, and would love to see the seasoned action star put Bieber in his place. If you need more background on this weird exchange, check out  the Know Your Meme entry!

Last week the governor of Georgia signed the "heartbeat bill" which would ban abortions after a fetal heartbeat is able to be detected by a doctor. The state of Alabama followed suit, proposing a total ban on abortions in nearly all cases. We won't get into the politics of that whole deal, but you probably understand why it's controversial to many.

On Friday, Alyssa Milano tweeted her call for a "sex strike," with the intention of withholding sex from men until women can get their bodily autonomy back, in her words. Liberals and conservatives alike are saying this movement is a little, um, misguided? 

At the end of the day, at least we can all come together regardless of our political affiliations to make fun of celebrities who say totally ridiculous sh*t!

Celebs: they're just like us! Or not. Sometimes, they're way nicer and funnier, as we can see from these tweets from a thread started (and then deleted) by Jaya Saxena. More than anything, the responses just made us want to meet Bill Murray. It's got to happen someday. 

Need some terrible parenting advice? Or some general dumb, witty humor? Our man Ryan Reynolds has you covered. Aside from being incredibly handsome, his Twitter account never fails to deliver the best of the best that will never disappoint. We hear that sometimes he even replies to fans, but shhh, you didn't hear it from us...

YouTube star Tana Mongeau held her first-ever fan convention, TanaCon, in Anaheim, California. The convention was created in retaliation against the famous annual YouTube convention VidCon. However, things went awry when a lot more people showed up than Mongeau expected - she stated that 15,000 fans began rushing the gates when she was only originally expecting 5,000. The event was eventually deemed a safety hazard and had to be shut down by the fire marshal.

Throughout all of the chaos, many fans were forced to wait outside for hours in the heat with no water or shade, and they were certainly not happy about it. Once fans did make it inside the venue, they weren't happy with the event itself either.
