Kim Kardashian is getting BLASTED after being picked for Variety‘s Actors on Actors series!
On Wednesday, the outlet announced its lineup for the next season of its popular interview series, which sees two actors sit down to interview each other. This season’s group includes pairings like Jodie Foster and Robert Downey Jr., Quinta Brunson and Jennifer Aniston, and Kristen Wiig and Jon Hamm, just to name a few. But most shocking of all was the fact Kimmy Kakes landed herself on the list alongside Chloë Sevigny!!
While the SKIMS founder’s been entertaining us for years on TV, she’s mostly known for reality TV. She only landed her first major acting gig on the latest season of American Horror Story — well, unless you count her Paw Patrol movie voice acting roles, too. LOLz!!

While fans weren’t too thrilled with Kim’s work on AHS, many critics were actually impressed — and her time on the show has inspired her to dive head-first into the entertainment world. She already has several more projects in the works! But regardless, haters still found it insulting to see her land such a prominent spot on the Actors on Actors lineup despite her few credits.

Taking to X (Twitter) after the announcement, fans clapped back at the casting, writing:
“Kim Kardashian? Can we be serious please.”
“Kim Kardashian is not an actor.”
“Real actors exist, did Kim K pay to be there???”
“So is Kim Kardashian an actor now? Did Chloë Sevigny draw the short straw?”
“One of these is not like the other…”
“Oh this is embarrassing guys”
“So Kim is trying to start an acting career, which I respect that drive, but to include someone with such a brief list of credits is wild.”
BTW, both Kim and Chloë were in Ryan Murphy shows, so that’s likely why they were paired up — and not everyone’s mad about it! Some supporters chimed in:
“Awesome !! Two strong powerful women. I actually love this pair”
“Idk, guys. She acted like Kanye [West]’s behavior was normal for years. That’s a skill.”
LMFAO!
What do YOU think?? Should Kim have gotten this interview? Let us know (below)!
