‘The Kardashians’ star was previously booed by the crowd when she performed at Tom Brady’s Netflix Roast
While she may be used to the spotlight, Kim Kardashian is admittedly terrified of audience jeers.
During her appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon this week, The Kardashians star, 43, cracked a joke after the live studio audience gave her a warm reception upon her arrival onstage.
“It’s my biggest fear in life to get booed, so this welcome is, like, so, so good!” she laughed before host Jimmy Fallon reassured her, “Never! They love you. Come on! We’re New York City, we love ya.”

The television personality’s jest comes three months after she was heckled during Netflix’s live broadcast of The Greatest Roast of All Time: Tom Brady.
When Kardashian took the stage on Sunday, May 5, she was met with cheers that quickly turned into boos from the crowd. Shortly after, Netflix edited out a few seconds of the jeers and lowered the volume for part of her set on the version of the show that is currently available to stream.
During the live special, the SKIMS founder attempted to make a joke about Tom Brady’s height when the crowd’s heckling overpowered her bit.

“I know a lot of people make fun of your height,” she said before trying to push through the moment. As the negative grew louder, she took a pause and addressed the feedback.
“Alright, alright, alright,” she awkwardly laughed while someone off-camera could be heard saying, “Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.”
Despite the reaction, Kardashian maintained her composure as she made fun of the dating rumors involving the retired NFL quarterback.
“I wasn’t going to come tonight, but since I’m not here as Tom’s date, there’s still a good chance I might,” she quipped. “Speaking of Tom and I dating, I know there were some rumors that we were, and I’d never say if we did or not. I’d just release the tape.”
The American Horror Story: Delicate actress wrapped up her three-minute roast by saying, “I’m just here tonight to support you and celebrate you. I’ll give you the same advice I give all of my exes: good luck knowing the best is behind you.”
