Kim Kardashian teases run on The Bachelorette as she grieves Kanye West marriage
Los Angeles, California - Kim Kardashian pulled the ultimate prank on her family on Thursday's episode of The Kardashians as she continues to come to terms with the dramatic end of her marriage to Kanye West.
Kim's feud with Kourtney Kardashian over Dolce & Gabbana seems to be a thing of the past, at least for now, as the SKIMs founder played a hilarious joke on her famous family.
In episode 8 of the reality TV series, amid the family's hilarious Thanksgiving preparations, Kim announced that she asked to join the hit dating show, The Bachelorette.
"I have some very important news," she teased to her befuddled family.
"An executive from Disney, Rob Mills, called me. They wanted to talk to me directly, and I was going to connect them with Kris once I decided if I was going to do it or not. I am going to do The Bachelorette."
Mills even played along with the joke, telling a visibly shocked Kris Jenner on the phone, "We are working on all the scheduling right now, and we are about 90 percent there."
The 67-year-old matriarch didn't hold back her feelings on the matter.
"I just need to wrap my head around something like this because this isn't exactly the space I saw Kim in," Kris said to the Disney exec on the call.

Eventually, Kim told everyone that the Bachelorette gig was just for giggles.
"I watch the show. I love the show! But did I want my daughter on it? Oh, hell no," she further explained in her confessional.
Meanwhile, in the teaser for next week's episode, Kim continued to mourn the Kanye West she "used to know" after finalizing the pair's tumultuous divorce.
"This is me holding onto the Kanye that I know. But when you know it can never get back there, that's what sucks, and that's what's hard," she admitted in the brief preview.
