Kim Kardashian Calls Out the ‘Kardashian Curse’—But Is She Just Jinxing Herself?

Added on October 16, 2025 inCelebrity News Cards

Isn’t it amusing how the stars might be throwing a cosmic curveball at the Kardashian clan? Kim Kardashian, herself, is downright fed up with the so-called “Kardashian curse” — yes, that delightful little myth suggesting every man who dates one of the Kardashian sisters is doomed to tumble from grace. But hold onto your horoscopes, because Kim’s calling foul on the idea that these men spiraled into disaster solely because of their romantic choices. She insists the men in her life, much like the planet Mercury when it goes direct, have actually experienced some pretty stellar victories — think NBA championships and Super Bowl victories sprinkled in amidst the tabloids. With the family under the gaze of the public eye and possibly Jupiter’s expansive influence stirring the pot, the Kardashian curse narrative is ripe for a celestial re-examination. Could it be that what we’re witnessing is less a curse and more a classic case of cosmic timing and human complexity? Wonder no more — dive into the glittering details behind the myth, the men, and the matriarchs in this fascinating family saga. LEARN MORE.

Kim Kardashian is tired of the negative reputation associated with her family name.

The “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” alum urged everyone to ditch the narrative that the men who seek romantic relationships with her and her sisters always end up at rock bottom.

Kim Kardashian is not the only one who has earned the ‘Kardashian curse’ tag; her sisters’ exes, Lamar Odom and Scott Disick, have also been alleged to have been plagued by the curse.

The billionaire trashed the demeaning reports about a magical power that sabotages her ex’s lives after a split, describing them as a discourse rooted in falsehood. In her words:

“I think it’s really unfair to say that women are the problem when it comes to issues that our exes might be dealing with and that they had those issues before.”

She then redirected the conversation’s course, focusing on the progress the men in their lives had made, starting with the family matriarch, Kris Jenner, who had married gold medalist Caitlyn Jenner.

Kardashian also referred to Odom clinching the NBA championships with the Lakers during his marriage to Khloé Kardashian. The actress added on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast that one of her exes also won the Super Bowl during their relationship:

“I was dating a football player and he won the Super Bowl—there were really positive, amazing things that happened.”

Kardashian was in a very public relationship with football player Reggie Bush when he won the Nick Lombardi cup with the New Orleans Saints in 2010.

Kardashian did not deny that it was fireworks when her relationship with Kanye “Ye” West initially began. The duo, who had been friends for nearly a decade before getting together, tied the knot in 2014, a year after they welcomed North West.

Kardashian revealed that she was attracted to Ye due to his intelligence and how much of a good time they had together. Unfortunately, things took a sad turn when Ye’s mental health issues overshadowed their marriage.

She recalled trying her hardest to be there for him and offer him help, but all her efforts were frustrated as Ye rejected virtually every solution offered. Kardashian added that sharing four children in the marriage also made it very hard for her to just get up and walk away.

Ultimately, she had to make a decision to help herself become a better person and be a much better mom for their babies. She expressed that they will probably understand her decision when they get older.

“I didn’t like the talkingbad about my kids’ grandmother, aunts—if someone feels that way, then we shouldn’t be together. You know, airing out a lot of stuff, a lot of personal stuff,” Kardashian added.

The ‘Kardashian Curse’ Followed Kim To Her Son’s Favorite Soccer Matches

In 2023, the “Kardashian Curse” bit resurfaced after the business owner flew her son out to Paris alongside his friends to catch a glimpse of his favorite football team. As noted by The Blast, Saint’s favorite team at the time, Paris Saint-Germain, played against Rennes in a 2-0 game.

Kardashian and her son created many memories during their visit, including a special meeting with Kylian Mbappe, a FaceTime session with Neymar, and exchanging pleasant waves with Lionel Messi by the pitch.

The aftermath of the match resulted in backlash from the fans, who blamed Kardashian for PSG’s loss, causing their first defeat in a record 715-day winning streak that spanned 35 consecutive matches.

A similar scenario occurred during Arsenal’s Europa League match against Sporting Lisbon, which ended in a 1-1 draw. While Kardashian and her crew enjoyed the game, the reaction on social media differed, as football enthusiasts blamed the “Kardashian curse” for the match’s outcome, which did not go in Arsenal’s favor.

Khloé also got a fair share of the allegation when she pulled up at Tristan Thompson’s game against the Boston Celtics. The star was there to support her baby daddy alongside their two kids, True and Tatum Thompson, as the Cleveland Cavaliers wrestled with the Boston team for the semi-finals of the Eastern Conference last year.

The Blast shared that fans immediately filled the social media space with permutations that Khloé’s presence at the game simply meant the Cleveland Cavaliers were about to face their toughest luck yet.

While the fans continued with their theories, Khloé kept the looks A1 with a black-on-black outfit paired with dark brown hair. True looked adorable in a pink outfit, while Tatum rooted for his dad in a Cavaliers T-shirt.

Inside The Kardashian Curse And Its Alleged Victims

Odom seemingly experienced a fall from glory following his divorce from Khloé after revelations of a series of infidelity and addiction on his part. Over the years, spectators have cited the Kardashian Curse as a reason for Odom’s misfortune.

The former NBA athlete has since come out to trash these claims, insisting that he played a primary role in his own downfall and that Khloé, alongside her family, actually saved his life.

Ye was also accused of becoming a shadow of himself as soon as he tied the knot with Kardashian, and things got worse for him after they finalized their divorce in 2022.

For the third bearer of the curse and Kourtney Kardashian’s ex, Scott Disick, his fall from grace began way before he parted ways with the eldest Kardashian. For years, Scott battled with drinking problems and breakdowns on the family’s reality TV shows.

Following his breakup, Disick has experienced significant difficulty in moving on romantically, with only a few attempts at love under his wings. These days, he is getting fewer and fewer public sightings, while Kourtney has found a home in the arms of Travis Barker and even welcomed a son.

The big question remains: Is the Kardashian Curse a real phenomenon?
