While the family may have moved on to a new show, “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” was an era we’ll never forget. It was filled with epic moments, from the dramatic and tense to the hilarious and awkward. Here are the most awkward KUWTK moments to know about.
1. Kylie and Kendall’s stripper pole antics
In one of the earlier KUWTK seasons, a very young Kendall and Kylie were filmed “dancing” on a stripper pole in Kris Jenner’s bedroom. Kris later looked back on this moment with regret, calling it extremely embarrassing. The girls agree!
2. Kim has a meltdown after losing an earring
During a family trip to Bora Bora, Kim experienced a breakdown after misplacing a $75,000 diamond earring in the ocean while swimming. The reaction was dramatic to say the least, and Kourtney’s response of “Kim, there’s people that are dying,” instantly became an iconic quote.
3. Kris Jenner gets a cheerleading injury
In Season 2, Episode 12, Kris tries out a cheerleading routine and sustains a knee injury in the process. She then attempts to join a cheerleading team, but her mobility isn’t quite what it used to be!
4. A healer says Kourtney and Scott are soulmates
In Season 16, Episode 4, Kourtney and Scott visit a spiritual healer when they’re on a trip to Bali. The healer affirms that the two were soulmates who shared a connection in a past life, prompting them to contemplate their relationship. We’d argue that’s far from the truth, especially considering their breakup.
5. Kris Jenner gets tipsy after a wine tasting
Kris takes her boyfriend, Corey Gamble, to Napa Valley to celebrate his birthday. She also brings along Khloe and Kourtney. Her daughters watch as Kris starts to get very tipsy and giggly, stumbling over her words—she had a total of 13 glasses!
6. Scott to Kourtney: “We Practiced Celibacy”
In one episode, Kourtney and Scott hang out without their kids for some quality couples’ time. When Kourtney told Scott she was working on an article about Celibacy for Poosh, Scott jokingly said, “Well, we practiced celibacy for a while.” In her response, Kourtney acknowledged that the two were still intimate during that time.
7. Kim hangs up on Blac Chyna
In an awkward (and tense) episode, Rob Kardashian tries to play mediator between Kim and Blac Chyna. He blindsides Kim by passing Blac Chyna the phone when he’s chatting with his sister. A surprised Kim immediately hung up, saying, “I’ll talk to her when I’m ready.”
8. Kim has an awkward dinner run-in with Tristan
After Tristan and Khloe’s very public cheating scandal, Kim had a tense run-in with her sister’s baby daddy at a restaurant. The incident showcases the family’s complicated dynamics after the betrayal.
9. Kim and Kourtney get into a physical fight
Sisters are bound to get into a catfight or two, right? During a heated argument, Kim and Kourtney physically fought on camera. We all remember that infamous moment when Kim hit Kourtney with her purse—their relationship was going through a tough time during that period.
