Reality television star and business mogul Kim Kardashian is refocusing on her legal studies after a recent setback. The SKIMS founder did not pass the California bar exam, a crucial step in her years-long journey to become a lawyer.
Frustration Over False Prophecies
During a TikTok video from her mother Kris Jenner's 70th birthday celebrations, Kardashian expressed her frustration. While getting her hair and makeup done, she was filmed on the phone vehemently criticizing the psychics she had consulted.
"All of the fucking psychics that we have met with and that we're obsessed with are all fucking full of shit," she stated. Kardashian revealed that approximately four different psychics had collectively assured her she would pass the exam. She now labels them "pathological liars" and issued a stark warning to her followers: "Don't believe anything they say."
A Long-Standing Legal Ambition
This is not the first academic hurdle Kardashian has faced in her pursuit of a law career. She previously failed the first-year law students' examination, often called the "baby bar," three times before finally passing it in 2021.
Over the weekend, she confirmed the recent exam result on her Instagram Story, clarifying that she came "so close" but is "not a lawyer yet." Despite the disappointment, her determination appears stronger than ever. In a subsequent social media post, she reassured her fans of her commitment.
"Six years into this law journey, and I'm still all in until I pass the bar," Kardashian wrote. "No shortcuts, no giving up - just more studying and even more determination."
Legal Influence and On-Screen Role
Kardashian's interest in the law extends beyond personal ambition. She was notably influential in President Donald Trump's 2018 decision to commute the life sentence of Alice Marie Johnson, a woman incarcerated for a non-violent drug offense.
Coincidentally, she currently stars as a high-powered divorce lawyer in Ryan Murphy's new legal drama, "All's Fair." In a recent promotional segment for Vanity Fair, she even disclosed that her use of the AI program ChatGPT for studying had backfired, leading to failed tests.
While psychics may have predicted an easier path, Kim Kardashian is making it clear that her path to the bar will be earned through hard work and perseverance alone.
