Kim’s unusual ability
Turns out Kim Kardashian West has a special secret talent – she can smell cavities. How cute. She claims her hidden talent lies in her ability to recognize the “special” smell of tooth decay. She said: “I can smell if someone has tooth decay. It’s a very specific odor – not a foul breath smell, but something very strong.”
Kylie earned a scar after playing hide and seek
In a 2011 interview with Celebuzz, Jenner explained that the scar resulted from a game of hide-and-seek with her sister. She hid behind a tall fence and climbed a sharp pole protruding from her hiding place. Then she slipped, and the pole cut through her leg.
The name Kendall has a strange origin
According to Glamour magazine, the family joked that when they were young, pumped-up former athlete Bruce looked exactly like Ken – Barbie’s boyfriend. So when Bruce and Kris Jenner had their first child together, they decided to choose a unique name that fit their “K” theme, which has already become the norm after Kris’ older daughters. So she and Bruce chose the name Kendall because it sounds like “Ken Doll” (Ken doll).
Kendall’s middle name is inspired by Nicole Simpson
The famous model also owes her middle name to a famous personality. Most fans know that Robert Kardashian (Kim, Khloe, Rob and Kourtney’s dad) was O.J. Simpson’s attorney at his murder trial.
Although Kris and Robert had already divorced by the time the trial began, their relationship became even more strained because Kris was a close friend of the victim. A year after Nicole Brown Simpson was murdered, Kendall was born, and Kris Jenner honored her dead friend by naming her after her daughter.
Kendall refused to attend her high school prom
Speaking about her decision, she said: “You know, I don’t know if you knew this about me, but I didn’t go to prom. I think that, well, it’s not such a big deal!” But what does she recommend doing instead? “Use it as an excuse to relax in comfy clothes with your favorite high school movies and homemade pizza.” Sounds like a great option for a non-boring evening.
“Just remember that embracing your ‘personal singularity’ is probably the most attractive trait a girl can have. However you spend this weekend, have fun!” – Kendall concluded. Her words make sense!
The facades of the Kardashians’ homes are not real
Although the Kardashians were filmed inside their real homes, the show used other homes unrelated to the family’s property for exterior shots. According to Kim, in an interview with ABC News, they used these exterior extras for “safety reasons.”
Kourtney took her parents’ divorce very hard
If you’ve watched The Kardashian Family, you probably think Kourtney is a very reserved lady – even a little too much so. She doesn’t usually cry or break down on camera, and she’s also known for her sense of humor and cheeky comments. However, in 1991, when she was just 12 years old, her parents’ divorce provoked her into a kind of mourning. Sources say that after the divorce, she wore black for five years to express her grief.
Kim went through a real meltdown on the show “Dancing with the Stars”
Among the many stars who shined on the show “Dancing with the Stars,” Kim was hardly the worst. She was the third contestant eliminated from the show’s seventh season in 2008. Kim’s dance partner Mark Ballas gently joked about her performance in a 2014 interview for the Orlando Sentinel. “She wasn’t the best dance partner,” he said. “I love her, she’s amazing, we became good friends. Dancing wasn’t her strong suit, but she’s a great girl.”
Khloe was homeschooled
Kim, Kourtney and Khloe attended Marymount High School, a Roman Catholic all-girls school in Los Angeles. But while her two older sisters finished their education there, Chloe decided to leave Marymount and be homeschooled.
It seems to have been the right decision, because Chloe graduated early and with honors. Following in her older sister’s footsteps, Kendall also chose to homeschool when she began her modeling career.
Divorcing Scott was a real ordeal for Courtney
Courtney told The Hollywood Reporter that the hardest episode for her was her break-up with Scott Disick. She said: “I had a lot of anxiety about it and finally said to myself, let’s just get it over with. I sat down and started crying. You get over something, then you move on. Then you do an interview and you remember all the anxiety again. Then you watch the episode and you see all these comments.”
Chloe had a serious brain injury
In 2001, long before the Kardashians were famous, Khloe was in a serious car accident. She flew through the windshield of a car and suffered a traumatic brain injury. Khloe claims to not remember long periods of her childhood and believes she suffers from long-term memory loss.
In an episode of The Kardashian Family, Khloe goes to several specialists to diagnose her problems and recover some of her lost memories.
Kim only wears a bikini on cloudy days
Kim isn’t used to being the center of attention, and as an expert at posing in front of cameras, she knows that sunlight doesn’t always suit her. Although she’s known for her shape, with a body like that… cellulite is inevitable. The star is clearly working hard to stay in shape, but as she herself stated, no one is perfect. In an interview with Elle magazine, she admitted that she would never go out in direct sunlight in a bikini.
Khloe Kardashian has been banned from giving a speech at her sister Kim’s wedding
We know the Kardashian sisters are close, but not always. In an interview with James Corden, Khloe revealed that Kim told her to skip the speech portion of the wedding reception because Khloe usually talks too long. However, Kanye was given full permission to speak as much as he wanted, and according to Khloe, he gave a speech that lasted about 45 minutes.
Kendall didn’t reveal her boyfriends until their relationship anniversary
The show’s producer Farnaz Farjam revealed that Kendall didn’t allow her boyfriends to be filmed until they celebrated their relationship anniversary. She explained, “Kendall always had a rule that she had to be with someone for at least a year before she would allow them on the show. It was so funny because her last boyfriend – not this one, but her previous boyfriend – they almost got to a year and I wanted to show him, but then they broke up.”
Kris wanted to make the show as honest as possible
When the show got the green light, Kris told her family – and now fellow cast members – that for it to succeed, she needed to put honesty first, even if that meant showing the world private moments of her life.
Producer Ryan Seacrest told The Hollywood Reporter that Kris said: “For it to work, yes, there’s glitz and glamor, but there has to be honesty and vulnerability.” Kris herself recalled telling her family, “If we’re going to do this, we have to be fully engaged. We have to really be ourselves.”
Kris Jenner’s church
Not many people know, but Kris Jenner started her own church. The Kardashian mom partnered with Pastor Brad Johnson in 2012 to create the California Community Church, where people can become members by donating $1,000 a month or 10% of their income.
Kim had no plans to reveal her wedding to Kanye West
In the season nine finale of “Kim’s Walk Down the Aisle,” Kim and Kanye got married at Forte di Belvedere in Italy in 2014. “We weren’t going to show our wedding on the show,” Kim told The Hollywood Reporter, adding that an assistant shot the video with a Handycam.
“She was literally standing on top of the castle and mtrz’ing because we knew we wanted to capture this gorgeous moment from above. People were yelling at her that “you can’t shoot from above!” Kim said she and Kanye “loved the footage so much” that they decided to show it on “The Kardashian Family.”
