In April 2015, Kim Kardashian spoke out on public television about her stepfather, Bruce Jenner, coming out to the world as transgender for the first time.
In her interview on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Kim Kardashian shared how Bruce Jenner is doing during his transition, saying, “Bruce is doing really well. He is so happy, and I think it’s the sense of relief from all of the amazing support that he’s felt.” She praised Bruce for his bravery in being truthful about his journey, adding that the support meant the world to him and their family.
Kim’s Playful Advice and Glam Team Banter
Kim jokingly mentioned giving Bruce fashion advice: “The only thing is, whatever you do, do not steal my glam team—they are mine! There are too many girls in this family.”
Despite the playful restriction, she assured Bruce of her support: “I said whatever help you need—style-wise, glam-wise—I’m here to help you.” Jimmy also humorously suggested adding the “sit test” to Bruce’s style preparation, to which Kim agreed to include it moving forward.
In her interview, Kim Kardashian also shared several amusing moments and anecdotes about her life.
The Sit Test Mishap
Kim playfully admitted to forgetting the “sit test” for her outfit, joking that it wasn’t working as planned while promoting her book, Selfish.
Living with Kris Jenner
Kim revealed that she and Kanye West lived with her mother, Kris Jenner, for over a year and a half. Kim humorously explained, “She got really crazy with us,” as she started redecorating Kris’s house, prompting her mom to encourage them to move out.
The Baboon in the Neighborhood
Kim described an unusual encounter with a baboon in her neighborhood, explaining that it belongs to a wildlife preservation expert who rents animals for parties. She took her daughter North outside to see the animal, though she remained cautious, saying, “I wouldn’t let my daughter get too close.”
