Kim Kardashian revealed the joke she edited from Saturday Night Live about her sister Khloe Kardashian for tolerating serial cheat Tristan Thompson’s “sidelines”.
“Oh Khloe, you have the biggest heart. It’s so big it has room for Tristan and all of his side pieces,” Kim, 41, told Amy Schumer as she performed her jokes with the comedian, 40.
‘Oh shit!’ said Amy in response to the remark.
“It has room for… all of its side parts”: Kim Kardashian shared the joke she ended up excising from her Saturday Night Live monologue about Khloe Kardashian and Tristan Thompson
The joke ultimately didn’t make it into the Final Cut.
Kim revealed that she removed the comment in an interview with iD Magazine conducted after her appearance on the show.
“I had a really funny joke about Tristan Thompson and Khloe that I took out — I could have maybe gone further,” she said.
The Khloe joke wasn’t the only tear removed from her monologue.
‘Oh shit!’ The joke surprised Amy Schumer, who was helping Kim prepare for her monologue
Speaking to the experts: Kim sought help from her comedian friend Amy before her performance
One joke that didn’t make it into the final version was Kanye, played by Chris Redd, who asked Kim – who was studying for the bar – to be his attorney on their divorce.
Kanye’s cutline read, “Ok fine you can divorce me but I need a lawyer will you be my legal family?”
Kim would then have replied: ‘No Kanye!’ to which he would have replied, ‘Fine and you won’t get a dime, I have the prenup right here!’

Change of heart: The Khloe joke wasn’t the only crack that was removed — Kim had also cut certain jokes about her divorce from Kanye West
Editing: In the second episode of The Kardashians, the 41-year-old reality star was preparing for the show, which aired last October, where she read unheard lines from the script (Kim and Kanye pictured in 2020).
During rehearsals the day before the show, Kim spoke to producers about editing jokes, saying, “I’m always scared of hurting people’s feelings.
“I would never go in there and make fun of anyone, especially the father of my children. Just because we didn’t work out doesn’t mean we don’t have great love and respect for each other.
She added: “Divorce is so tricky for him and I say quite a bit in the monologue so I don’t want to put it down. Maybe I can talk to Chris (Redd) and make it more fun since it’s super touchy for him.
“I know he wants to be a part of it, but let’s be careful.”

SNL producer Lindsay Shookus then told Kim, “It’s not uncommon for us to make line changes so we can sort them out before night.”
It’s possible that the sketch in question was The People’s Kourt, in which Kim posed as sister Kourtney Kardashian and ran her family’s affairs.
While Chris impersonated Kanye, there was no mention of the divorce in this part.
Instead, the SNL writers poked fun at some of Kanye’s more memorable tweets.
Concern: Kim discussed cutting jokes with producers during rehearsals the day before the show, saying, “I’m always scared of hurting people’s feelings.”

However, in her opening monologue, Kim spoke about Kanye, saying, “I married the greatest rapper of all time. Not only that, he’s the richest black man in America.
“A talented true genius who gave me four incredible children. So when I divorced him, you had to know that one thing mattered: his personality.”
Kim shares children North, eight, Saint, six, Chicago, four, and Psalm, two, with Kanye, from whom she filed for divorce in February 2021.
Kim is now dating SNL star Pete Davidson while Kim was recently spotted with Kim lookalike Chaney Jones.
Concerns: She added, “Divorce is so tricky for him and I say a lot in the monologue so I don’t want to put it down.”
Meanwhile: Kim started Thursday bright and early with a 5:30 sauna suit sprint
Break a sweat! Kim was delighted to see that the run had so rarely made her sweat
