Amy Schumer got permission from Kim Kardashian to tell a joke about her late father, Robert Kardashian Sr., in her new movie, Kinda Pregnant.
During a scene in the Netflix film, Amy‘s character Lainy reads a bedtime story while babysitting, reading from a fake pop culture magazine titled Profile.
“There was once a family of beautiful, beautiful princesses called the Kardashians,” she reads. “And they lived in a palace that their dad bought them by defending a murderer.”

While on The Howard Stern Show, Amy revealed how it went down behind-the-scenes.
“I called Kim Kardashian. I said I want to make this joke … I asked if she would mind, and she didn’t mind. How cool is she? She’s like, ‘Yeah, do the one about my dad defending a murderer.’ She was that chill.”
The two have teamed up for comedy matters before: years ago, Amy helped Kim rehearse her Saturday Night Live monologue before her hosting debut in 2022.
Robert Sr. died in 2003, and was a close friend of O.J. Simpson and served as a defense attorney in the former football player’s trial for the murder of his then-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman.
Amy Schumer also explained the reason why she stopped using Ozempic recently.
