It's a universally accepted fact that the best comedy of all time is Legally Blonde. Full. Stop.
So, we were understandably trepidatious when we heard that Kim Kardashian West fully recreated one of the film's most epic parts, to celebrate Halloween.
Kardashian, who has previously dressed up as Cher, Jasmine, a Victoria's Secret Angel and Selena for the spooky day, this time opted for fictional blonde 'bimbo' turned Harvard Law Valedictorian Elle Woods (played by Reese Witherspoon in the 2001 film adaptation).

The mother-of-four recreated the iconic Harvard 'essay' in the film, that sees Woods apply for the Law school with a video.
And you know what? The make-up mogul (who is not known for her acting chops) does an amazing job - not only nailing the looks, which include sparkly bikinis and tiny dogs - but also the dialogue and comedic timing.
Though, we wondered why we're so surprised, since Woods and Kardashian West actually have a lot in common, namely people underestimating their ability to become lawyers.
Earlier this year the Skims founder revealed that over the next four years, she is training to become a lawyer herself.
'I’ve seen some comments from people who are saying it’s my privilege or my money that got me here, but that’s not the case.' the reality star explained in an Instagram post after receiving backlash for her choice, 'One person actually said I should “stay in my lane.” I want people to understand that there is nothing that should limit your pursuit of your dreams, and the accomplishment of new goals. You can create your own lanes, just as I am.'
Woods would be so proud.
