Bollywood's resident fashionista recently had her own Rihanna moment online and it wasn't pretty!
And while the virtual audience was busy wiping off tears of mirth, her sister Rhea Kapoor who also happens to be her stylist was none too amused. In a recent interview, she fiercely took apart the haters by claiming, "Whenever you do anything out of the box, you get positivity and negativity for it. Initially, when Sonam started walking the red carpet, a lot of people didn't get it. So coming to the Elie Saab gown, we got fantastic press for it internationally, and about the internet trolls, WHO CARES?
"If you feel beautiful, you should wear it. I think, that no girl should give a shit about what other people think. You should wear what you like, be bold and fearless, if you feel good, that is all that matters. I loved the dress, it was bold and fresh, it was so Sonam. When she put the dress on she looked like a princess. It was couture and luxury and I absolutely loved the dress."
And while we are all for freedom of expression and creativity, here are seven Sonam Kapoor memes that are just begging to be shared:
1. Some thought that Sonam had decided to make a bold ethnic statement by revisiting her roots on the Cannes red carpet...
2. Others thought that she was just doing her bit to raise awareness about the environment
3. Then came others who thought that she just couldn't let go of her childhood love for Sesame Street... Let's face it, who can?
4. But then some other mammals came forward to claim credit for the inspiration behind this outfit
5. Some conspiracy theorists obviously begged to differ
6. Until this great feathered bird came into the picture and made us rethink our original hypothesis all over again
7. Because at the end of the day, Sonam Kapoor IS her daddy's little girl after all! Family love, ftw!
