Kim Kardashian admits her ‘biggest fear in life’ is getting booed 3 months after brutal Tom Brady roast
Kim Kardashian was pleased to receive a warm welcome on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon” Wednesday, admitting that she is terrified of a crowd turning on her.
“It’s my biggest fear in life to get booed, so this welcome is, like, so so good!” the “Kardashians” star, 43, said on the late-night talk show in response to the audience cheering and clapping for her.
Host Jimmy Fallon then chimed in, “Never! They love you. Come on! We’re New York City, we love ya.”
In May, Kardashian had to face her biggest fear when she was booed in front of a room full of celebrities, sports stars and comedians at Tom Brady’s Netflix roast.
During the live-streamed “The Roast of Tom Brady,” the Skims founder — who was invited to roast Brady, 47, as a special guest — was mocked and jeered before she even said her first joke.
“I know a lot of people make fun of your height,” she began to tell the roast’s host Kevin Hart before she had to pause due to all the booing.
Hart, 45, then stepped in to try and calm down the crowd, saying, “Whoa, whoa, whoa.”
Netflix ended up editing out the boos from any future viewings of Brady’s special, but a source exclusively told Page Six at the time that Kardashian had “nothing to do” with that decision.
We were told the mom of four was “just as surprised” by Netflix’s cuts and the insider praised how Kardashian dealt with the entire situation, concluding that the reality star “handled it with such grace.”
Brady’s roast was a massive success but other aspects of the comedy special were received poorly.

The NFL star’s ex-wife, Gisele Bündchen, was hurt over jokes made about her and her new relationship with jiu-jitsu instructor Joaquim Valente.
Although some insiders thought the supermodel’s romance was “fair game,” Brady himself even later admitted that perhaps the roast went too far at points.
“I loved when the jokes were about me,” he said on “The Pivot” podcast in May.
“I thought they were so fun. I didn’t like the way that affected my kids.”
