It all begins so innocently – the fabulous Bette Midler tells a joke on Twitter:
Kim Kardashian tweeted a nude selfie today. If Kim wants us to see a part of her we’ve never seen,
she’s gonna have to swallow the camera.— Bette Midler (@BetteMidler) March 7, 2016
Miss Kardashian, thinking that she can drop a few cute bon mots responded to the Divine Miss M thusly:
hey @BetteMidler I know it’s past your bedtime but if you’re still up and reading this send nudes #justkidding— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) March 8, 2016
hey @BetteMidler I really didn’t want to bring up how you sent me a gift awhile back trying to be a fake friend then come at me #dejavu— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) March 8, 2016
The “gift” Kim refers to was a tree that Bette planted in Kim’s name as part of Bette’s New York Restoration Project, so, of course, Miss M wasn’t going to leave it there:
.@KimKardashian: I never tried to fake friend you. Looks like anyone can take a selfie but not everyone can take a joke…— Bette Midler (@BetteMidler) March 8, 2016
