Kim Kardashian And Kanye West – Too Soon To Joke?

It’s safe to say that Kim Kardashian wants no part of any joke that’ll seem disrespectful to her estranged husband Kanye Ye West.

On the April 21 episode of “The Kardashians,” Kim revealed that she’s always afraid of hurting people’s feelings. This revelation came when she was getting ready for her first-ever hosting gig on Saturday Night Live.

Kim’s major concern was whether she should poke fun at her divorce from Kanye “Ye” West. In a confessional, the SKIMS founder conveyed that she’s “always afraid of hurting people’s feelings” and had no intention of making fun of the “father of my kids.” She added, “And it doesn’t mean that because we didn’t work out that we don’t have a great love and respect for each other.”

Kim Kardashian And Kanye West  – What Was The Joke About?

This joke about Kanye that caused Kim great discomfort, so much so that it was cut out completely from the show is worth knowing.

The joke would have happened on Oct. 9, 2021 episode—in which Chris Redd impersonates Kanye asking Kim to be his lawyer in their divorce. That had the SKIMS founder worried.

Kim told Saturday Night Live producer Lindsay Shookus, “The divorce is so sensitive for him, and so, I’m already saying that part in the monologue, I don’t want to like…maybe I could talk to Chris and think of something funny. I could just tell him, ‘Hey! This is super sensitive to him.'”

The sketch in question was “The People’s Kourt,” where Kim had to impersonate her sister Kourtney Kardashian and oversee their family’s issues. While Chris impersonated Kanye, there was no mention of the divorce in the bit. Instead, the SNL writers poked fun at some of Kanye’s more memorable tweets.

While Kim believed that Kanye would want to be a part of the joke “cause he’d love it,” she also didn’t want to cross over into a disrespectful place. Sensing Kim’s stress, Lindsay assured Kim that the scene could be changed or even cut.
