Kris Jenner slammed for ‘rude’ comments about daughter Khloe Kardashian’s nose when the star was just 9 years old
KRIS Jenner has been slammed for saying her daughter Khloe Kardashian needed a nose job at the age of nine.
In a resurfaced interview, Khloe, 37, recalled being devastated when she overheard her mom talking about her face to a friend.
Khloe told British Cosmopolitan in 2013: “Words are the most powerful weapon, they can leave scars forever.
“She didn’t mean harm, but when I was around nine I overheard my mom telling her friend I needed a nose job.
“I was shocked, I hadn’t even thought about it. I’ve grown into my face but I’ve had makeup artists tell me, ‘You should get a nose job.'”
The reality star, who was 29 at the time, added: “I’m so happy that I never have.”
A snippet of Khloe’s interview resurfaced in a Kardashian Reddit thread, with critics slamming Kris for her “horrible” words.
One wrote: “Jesus Christ. What a horrible thing to say to your child. No wonder they are obsessed with their bodies and faces.
“Look where they learned it from… I just hope they don’t pass that onto their children.”
Another added: “This is heartbreaking. I really do feel for Khloe, there’s no wonder why she’s so insecure. I wish she could see how beautiful she actually was naturally.”

A third simply claimed: “Kris is a monster.”
While Khloe said she was proud of her natural features, she did end up getting a nose job several years after the interview.
The mother of one confirmed she’s had a nose job during the Keeping UP With the Kardashians reunion show last summer.
She told host Andy Cohen: “For me, everyone says, ‘Oh my gosh, she’s had her third face transplant!’
“I’ve had one nose job!”
KHLOE’S SURGERY
She continued: “Everyone gets so upset, like, why don’t I talk about it? No one’s ever asked me! You’re the first person that’s ever asked me in an interview about my nose.
“I’ve done, sure, injections. Not really Botox. I’ve responded horribly to Botox.”
Khloe has been sparking concern with her drastic weight loss in recent weeks amid her heartache with Tristan Thompson.
The NBA star, 30, recently revealed he secretly fathered a son with his mistress, fitness model Maralee Nichols, 31.
CHEATING SCANDAL
Following a month of speculation, Tristan confirmed he is son Theo’s father and issued a public apology to Khloe.
The athlete wrote on social media: “Today, paternity test results revealed that I fathered a child with Maralee Nichols.
“I take full responsibility for my actions. Now that paternity has been established, I looked forward to amicably raising our son.
“I sincerely apologize to everyone I’ve hurt or disappointed throughout this ordeal both publicly and privately.”
He then turned his attention directly to his ex, writing: “Khloe, you don’t deserve this. You don’t deserve the heartache and humiliation I have caused you.”
Tristan admitted he met up with Maralee for sex several times while he was exclusively dating Khloe.
The TV personality and athlete share 3-year-old daughter True together, while Tristan is also the father to son Prince, five, with ex Jordan Craig.
