Kim Kardashian reflects on OJ Simpson trial depiction amid law school journey

Kim Kardashian, who was a teenager during the OJ Simpson trial, vividly remembers it and is impressed by how producer Ryan Murphy depicted her family in the 2016 ‘American Crime Story’ series, ‘The People vs. OJ Simpson.’ 

Reflecting on the portrayal of her father, the late Robert Kardashian Sr., Kardashian expressed admiration for how Murphy captured the exact details. She recounted this anecdote during a conversation with Chloë Sevigny in an episode of Variety's ‘Actors on Actors,’ released on Wednesday, June 5.

“I loved it. Some people were over and they hadn’t seen it — I watched it years and years ago — and I wanted to see if my recollection was right on the portrayal of my dad,” Kim recalled.

“I thought it was just done so well. I remember asking Ryan, who were your sources? Because that was my dad’s exact bracelet. That was our home! They actually rented the home that we grew up in at that period of time. Little things were wrong, but minimal,” Kardashian continued. 

“But it was just fascinating to watch and see it from a different perspective, especially now, since I’m in law school,” she said. “Seeing it from a legal point of view is just fascinating.”

Despite her involvement in the trial, Kim Kardashian rarely discusses it publicly. She has expressed that she prefers to maintain a respectful silence out of consideration for the privacy of OJ and Nicole Brown Simpson's children, Sydney and Justin.
