“That’s all I’ve got in me and then I’ll take some time off.”
Kim Kardashian is following in her daughter’s footsteps and getting serious about her acting career. In the latest episode of The Kardashians, her plotline revolves around her pitching and eventually selling a comedy vehicle to Netflix, written by Paula Pell and Janine Brito. Never in a million years did I think I’d hear Kim Kardashian say “Paula Pell” so many times in an episode of television, but life is a rich tapestry.

“I’m really nervous about it because I have to [fucking] deliver,” Kim told her posse. “It’s such a challenge for me and I want to welcome a challenge. Every year I was like, ‘I wanna do something that makes me so uncomfortable that I really have to challenge myself.’” While Kim claims to want to push herself, she’s only willing to go so far. Maybe she’ll take a Meisner class or hire a dialect coach, but she’s drawing the line at cutting out injectables.
“I also feel like you need less Botox for more emotion, and I don’t have it,” Kim joked. “How am I gonna cry? How am I gonna be scared out of my mind? I cannot move.” And the Oscar for Best Self-Aware Reality Star goes to …
