💥 “BRO… THAT’S FAKE SKIMS!” — Shohei Ohtani Causes a Stir After Accidentally Buying FAKE Kim Kardashian Lingerie, Goes Online Begging Fans: “Does Anyone Know Where to Get the REAL Ones?”

Los Angeles — In one of the most unexpected (and hilarious) celebrity mix-ups of the week, baseball superstar Shohei Ohtani has gone viral for something way outside the ballpark.

According to fans on X (formerly Twitter), the two-way phenom recently accidentally bought fake SKIMS lingerie — yes, the ones from Kim Kardashian’s billion-dollar fashion empire — and then took to social media in confusion, pleading for help.

The now-deleted post reportedly read:

“BRO… THAT’S FAKE SKIMS! 😭 Does anyone know where to get the REAL ones?? I thought I bought them from the official site…”

Screenshots of the post exploded online, showing Ohtani holding a small pink box labeled “SKIMZ” with a crooked logo — a clear knockoff of the real brand.

Within hours, fans flooded his mentions with reactions ranging from supportive to downright hysterical:

“Shohei just trying to be a good boyfriend and the internet scammed him 😭😭😭”
“Not Ohtani getting catfished by fake Kim K lingerie 💀💀💀”

Even SKIMS’ official account jumped into the chaos, replying with a playful wink emoji and a link to their verified store.

Industry insiders say the fake lingerie market has exploded online following Kim Kardashian’s viral “Ultimate Fit” campaign — with hundreds of imitation sellers popping up across Asia and the U.S.

Still, no one expected MLB’s most disciplined star — known for his focus and clean image — to get caught up in the frenzy.

A source close to Ohtani told Page Scoop:

“He just wanted to surprise his girlfriend. He saw a flash sale and didn’t realize it wasn’t official. Now he’s embarrassed but laughing it off.”

As the memes continue to flood social media — some showing Ohtani wearing a detective hat and magnifying glass with the caption “Searching for the Real SKIMS” — one thing’s clear:
Even baseball’s biggest superstar isn’t safe from online shopping fails.

And as one fan perfectly summed it up:

“He can hit 500-foot home runs… but can’t hit the right checkout button.” ⚾💋
