JAKARTA - Kim Kardashian responded to reports that she had ruined the vintage Marilyn Monroe dress she wore to the Met Gala last month. He spoke about the allegations when he was a guest on The Today Show.

Previously, the dress was reportedly damaged after being worn by Kim Kardashian. Some speculations claim this dress has some torn parts and some accents are missing from the dress.

"I walked the red carpet in a cape and sandals and then I put the dress right on the carpet before going up the stairs," Kim Kardashian said on Tuesday, June 21.

"I remember wearing it only three to four minutes later I replaced (after going down) on the stairs," he explained.

Pete Davidson's lover explained he respects Marilyn Monroe. There was no way she didn't understand how this dress made such an impression on American history.

"I respect (Monroe). I understand how much this dress means to American history. And for the Met Gala theme I thought, “what is more American than Marilyn Monroe singing to the President of the United States?” he explained.

Because of her desire, Kim Kardashian is willing to go on a strict diet so that her body can wear the iconic dress. He realized this statement caused controversy from the public.

“(The incident) taught me about lifestyle and health. Since then I have continued to eat healthily. Now I'm not trying to lose weight but I have energy because I cut back on sugar. I changed my lifestyle," he said.

The issue of damage to Marilyn Monroe's dress was first discussed by ChadMichael Morrisette, an artist who is known to be a fan of Monroe. He was sure the dress was damaged after seeing it at the Ripley's Believe It or Not! In Los Angeles.

"I know the dress. I've seen it many times. I often take pictures of it. I have proof of what's different about the dress now," Morrisette said.

But this statement was denied by Amanda Joiner, president of the Ripleys museum. They explained the dress came back in the same condition as it was when it was first displayed.
