The O. J. Simpson Trial: Drama of the Century (2015)
You can now add Keeping Up With The Kardashians to the long list of things OJ Simpson was wrong about.
Among the many revelations that have spilled out of the O.J.: Made In America documentary a five-part series that is being broadcast all week and has been critically acclaimed as one of ESPNs best works comes a small anecdote from the night Simpsonset to steal memorabilia that he claimed had been initially stolen from him.
Per the Huffington Post, OJ and Tom Riccio, the man who goaded Simpson into attempting the robbery, were watching TV on the night of Sept 13, 2007. An interview withKim Kardashianwas airing on The Tyra Banks Show that day. Kim was announcing that her family was set to star in a new reality show.
According to Riccios account, its safe to say OJ thought the show would be trash.
Riccio recalled OJ saying,
Thats my goddaughter, her name is Kim.That show aint going to last two weeks.
This anecdote is a reminder of one of the more interesting, trivia-like facts about OJ Simpsons life, particularly at a time when that life is being brilliant dissected and analyzed by ESPNs documentary.
OJ was, in fact, very close to the Kardashians, a fact which is not insignificant in the USC legends incredibly complex tale.He was Kims godfather, and Kris Jenner was a close friend of the former football star.
Nicole Brown Simpson and her life as a victim of domestic violence is also examined in this documentary.
OJ was represented by Jenners ex-husband, Robert Kardashian. Meanwhile, a different documentary raises the question of Khlo Kardashians relation to OJ Simpson.
So, yeah. Its safe to say that OJs connection to the Kardashians is pretty important. That connection didnt stop him from throwing shade at their show, though.
