Of Kim Kardashian West’s four icons-themed Halloween looks, fans have the most to say about her final costume as the late Latina pop singer Selena.
The socialite wore a purple jumpsuit and long, dark wig with bangs to a party hosted by John Legend and Chrissy Teigen Tuesday night. Selena wore the look while performing at the Houston Astrodome and the moment was made famous in a 1997 biopic, starring Jennifer Lopez.

Before the party, Kardashian West shared a few videos of herself getting into character by lip-syncing and practicing her dance moves.

A few compared her rhythm less to the pop star’s and more to Elaine’s famous dancing scene fromย Seinfeld.

Others honed in on Kardashian West’s attempt at lip syncing to a Selena hit, one she apparently didn’t know by heart.

Selenaย was a music and fashion icon referred to as the Queen of Tejano music for her hits in the early ’90s.
At 25 years old, the celebrity was shot and killed in 1995 by Yolanda Saldรญvar, her friend and former manager of her fashion boutique collection.ย
Selena reactions:
Selenaย superfansย blasted Kardashianย West’s post with reactions using photos or GIFsย of the late star.
The singer left an enduring legacy on the world ofย musicย and is set to receive a posthumous star on the Walk of Fame on Friday. She was also the subject of a recent Google Doodle chronicling her life. Late last year, MAC cosmetics company released a collection of makeup inspired by her style.

Other followers pointed out Kardashianย West’s ample assets in the video clips, which have been the topic of speculation for years.ย Selenaย was also known for having a curvy figure and round booty, but fans don’t see the connection between the her body and the reality star’s.ย

“Demi did it better”:
Though Kardashianย West’s elaborate costumesย โ which also included looks as Cher, Madonna and Aaliyahย โย suggest she planned them well in advance, followers couldn’t help but dig at her for “copying”ย Demiย Lovato, who wore a similar look a few days earlier.

Fans praised Lovatoย for her impersonation of the Mexican-American music icon, but slammed Kardashianย West for the same costume.
Their reasoning is thatย Lovato, who sang a track on aย Quintanilla tribute album, has found musical inspiration from the late singer who “bridged the gap for latinasย in pop music.” On the other hand, they asked Kardashianย West if she even knew anything about the icon.

Another ‘offensive’ look:
The middle Kardashianย sister’sย Selenaย look isn’t the only one that’s taken heat this Halloween.
Over the weekend, she dressed as another late musical icon,ย Aaliyah, and fans slammed the celebrity for cultural appropriation of the African-American R&B singer.
First she disrespected Aaliyah and now Selena? ??

Selena’s supporters found the costume and accompanying song and dance moves to be disrespectful of the murdered singer.
Seriously??? I don’t think she knows who Selena was!! ???????
