Twitter-feud queen Bette Midler had a chicken named Kim Kardashian -- and she died of a yeast infection

Once upon a glorious Twitter feud, Kim Kardashian called Bette Midler a "fake friend" while simultaneously asking her for a nude selfie.

But that does not stop Twitter-feud queen Bette Midler. Besides being deliciously ruthless on social media, she has a pretty strong sense of humor IRL (let's never forget her Kim-tweet song). The Divine Miss M has a small coop of chickens all named after the Kardashian sisters, she told People at the New York Restoration Project's Spring Picnic Wednesday. But, sadly, all the Ks are no longer in the coop: Chicken Kim has died of a yeast infection.

Okay, so, losing any kind of pet isn't exactly funny. But the sentence "the chicken died of a yeast infection" does have an odd ring to it. Best wishes to the rest of the Kardashian fowl — may they enjoy long, lavish lives in the house of Midler.
