The cast of Ryan Murphy’s All’s Fair was in Paris last night for the premiere and in all the group shots on their multiple red carpets thus far, it’s been Kim Kardashian who is centered…because she is the main character. And as I wrote on Substack at The Squawk a couple of weeks ago, if you had told me this in 2012, I would have stabbed myself. But here we are, Kim Kardashian playing the lead character in a Ryan Murphy production, a proper actress, I guess. Which might explain why she’s kinda changed her approach to her celebrity recently, and pulled back on the reality star energy because she’s now in her, “I’m a real actor” era. And… honestly? I might not be able to resist it. I’ve never watched a single minute of any Kardashian reality show. I’ve never watched any scripted show she’s been in. So this could be the first Kim K production I’ll be f-cking with, nearly 20 years into her celebrity. Don’t think I’ll be alone either. 

 

Earlier this month when the new trailer dropped, it was Hulu’s most-watched promo of all time. 

 

It’s pointless to pretend that Kim doesn’t have a lot to do with that. But also, of course, the energy that All’s Fair is giving. This show is trying very hard to c-nt, a blatant and thirsty attempt at c-ntery, and also an homage to Dynasty. Everything about it is absurd, in the most hilarious and irresistible way, right down to the names of the characters, unmistakably the spiritual children of Blake Carrington as Ryan Murphy has become, in many ways, the spiritual child of Aaron Spelling for this generation. Please note the character names: 

Kim Kardashian – Allura Grant

Sarah Paulson – Carrington Lane

Niecy Nash – Emerald Greene

Naomi Watts – Liberty Ronson

Glenn Close – Dina Standish

Teyana Taylor is simply… Milan. 

 

Sorry, but I am powerless to this kind of mess. And also powerless to the looks that we are seeing from all six of these women.

Glenn Close in the Balmain with the exposed bra with her short hair styled as big and high as it can be? Slay. Naomi Watts in Valentino and her nipples out over that f-cking gorgeous bumble tier pencil skirt? Standing ovation. And, of course, as always, Teyana. In Schiaparelli. Like liquid metal skin, give me Terminator Teyana or nothing!

I warned about this at the Squawk and I’ll do it again here on the heels of Sarah’s post on the Golden Globes’ latest f-cksh-t the other day. The Golden Globes are always good for some nonsense nominations and Emily in Paris is just one example. Plus, the Globes have been very kind of Ryan Murphy’s shows in the past. It is absolutely not out of the realm of possibility for them to nominate Kim – this is an unserious award show that attracts serious talent. The whole point of the Globes is starf-cking. And there’s no bigger target for their starf-cking than Kim Kardashian and getting her at their event. 

I’ll Gossip Genie this again: maybe they can find a way to get Taylor Swift to come too. Like nominating her Showgirl movie or something. Then they can both be there and we can keep fertilising these grudges and we can start 2026 with gossip chaos for the new year.
