Celebrity Kathy burke rita ora takedowns
Kathy Burke’s hilarious response to Rita Ora’s Met Gala outfit was our favourite takedown of the year
We’ve written about no end of red carpet events over the past 12 months but one of them generated more memes than all the others combined (well, that’s what it felt like at the time).
And that one was the Met Gala, which is already the one to beat ahead of next year’s awards season which will be on us before we know it.
And no Met Gala guest was responsible for more of those memes than Rita Ora (and her husband, Taika Waititi) after she turned up dressed like this.
Rita Ora says she is wearing beads that “age back to the first and second century BC.” She then notes that this means those beads are “older, I think, than anyone on this planet,” which does seem likely. pic.twitter.com/97QUWyvA0N

And while her outfit prompted lots of very funny comparisons and observations …
Me, turning on the Met Gala just as I finished filing a police report regarding my stolen sofa and curtains: oh my god https://t.co/01EwuU7DNr

7 billion people and not a single one from the first century BC? That feels hard to believe https://t.co/DtMNRkRx1t

Reminds me of when I slipped on the conditioner on holiday in Tenerife and brought the shower curtain down. pic.twitter.com/hO1P2COyQ0

Not just our favourite one of these of the month, but the whole year we reckon.
Oh Kathy Burke, you are awful! https://t.co/XrBDeV6MhV

I can’t believe she’d go out without underwear. You can quite clearly see her ‘nan’s curtains’.

It’s not just the humour in this comment, you then get hit by a form of nostalgia you never knew you had!
