Kim Kardashian just revealed she once had a very sketchy side hustle—accidental drug mule—and honestly, it’s the kind of plot twist only a Kardashian could pull off.
In the latest episode of The Kardashians, Kim sat down with a group of incarcerated men during a prison visit in Sacramento, where she suddenly remembered that one time teen-Kim got peer-pressured into picking up ecstasy from some random apartment. Casual.
And now, as a fully reformed law enthusiast and prison reform advocate, she’s spiraling over the fact that she could’ve ended up in an orange jumpsuit instead of a SKIMS bodysuit. Imagine the alternate reality.
But, of course, Kim admitted that if she had been caught, she knew her dad, legendary attorney Robert Kardashian, would’ve had her out faster than Kris Jenner can negotiate a brand deal. Meanwhile, the men she was talking to? Yeah…they didn’t have that kind of Kardashian-level legal security blanket.
Kim’s travel companions for this inspiring jailhouse throwback included Scott Disick, Olivia Pierson, and her sister Kendall Jenner—who could barely keep it together. Kendall straight-up called Kim’s story a total Legally Blonde moment, while also pointing out that a nearby officer was visibly regretting all his life choices as he listened to her confession.
The visit wasn’t just about Kim’s wild past, though. She met with young incarcerated men who are part of a program that trains them as wildfire firefighters (because apparently, fighting literal fire is how you earn your way out of trouble). The initiative, set up by her pal Scott Budnick, gives them a second chance—kind of like Kim got, minus the Kardashian safety net.
Of course, Kim being Kim, she also made the moment sentimental, reflecting on her late dad’s passion for justice and helping others. She’s basically living out his legacy—minus the whole O.J. trial part.
Honestly? If Robert Kardashian were here, he’d probably be both horrified and weirdly proud of this full-circle moment. Classic Kim.
