Kim Kardashian Revisits Iconic Earring Mishap a Decade Later

Over a decade ago, in 2011, Kim Kardashian experienced a viral moment that has since become a pop culture reference. While vacationing in Bora Bora with her family and then-boyfriend Kris Humphries, Kim lost one of her diamond earrings in the ocean, which brought her to tears.

In the now-iconic scene, Kim's sister Kourtney Kardashian aimed to put things into perspective, famously telling Kim, "Kim, there's people that are dying." However, Kim explains that she was so upset because the earrings were one of her first major purchases and were not yet insured.
