“We’re a full comedy now,” the 46-year-old admits, adding: “The beauty in producing a show with writers that are really tuned in to pop culture is they can see what the response is and write accordingly to that.”
All’s Fair, which was created by American Horror Story and Glee showrunner Ryan Murphy, became the Hulu network’s most-watched scripted series debut of the last three years and was immediately renewed.
Following a group of divorce lawyers – played by Kardashian, Close, Paulson, Naomi Watts and Niecy Nash-Betts – the show was panned for bad acting, with Kardashian baring the brunt of criticism.
The Hollywood Reporter called her “wooden”, and the Times declared that the show “may be the worst TV drama ever”.
But the hallmark of Kardashian’s career has been her ability to back herself – whether that’s going from years of being snubbed by Met Gala organisers to becoming its most anticipated guest, or overcoming backlash to the launch of her shapewear company to turn it into a $5bn (£3.7bn) brand.
Kardashian says: “What is the alternative, right? What is the other choice that you have when you’re getting criticised?
“Do you just fall in and feel that, or keep your head down and try better, try harder and try a different path?”
Having been in the spotlight for more than 20 years, she’s “always had a really good sense of my mental health”, and says that comes from being able to “brush off” those who seek to bring her down.
“I always do things that are tough because I genuinely want to learn,” Kardashian says.
