The third season of Hulu’s The Kardashians just premiered last week, and many fans on social media are expressing how “taken aback” they are by Kris Jenner’s “different-looking” appearance.
Last week, celebrity news and gossip outlet Page Six uploaded a screenshot of the 67-year-old ‘momager’ from the reality show’s most recent episode.
As seen in the comment section, some fans noted that “something looked off,” with many comparing her to Michael Jackson. “Kinda Michael Jacksonish,” one wrote as another added, “It’s giving Michael Jackson.”

Fans Compare Kris Jenner to Michael Jackson After Deeming Her ‘Unrecognizable’
One other fan commented, also comparing the reality star to the King of Pop: “Apparently Michael Jackson’s plastic surgeon is still in the game!” Someone else replied, “Is that Michael?”
One TikTok user joked, “they hired someone to play Kris” after seeing a scene with the mom of six speaking to her daughter Kim from the Kardashians premiere.
A Kardashian fanpage uploaded a clip from the episode that showed the mom of six consoling the 42-year-old SKIMS founder in an emotional moment. The SKKN mogul said to her mother, regarding her ex-husband Kanye West’s demands, “Just once! I just want to lose it once! I want to have a bad day!”

Kardashian added, “I can’t be overwhelmed and have a bad day! No one else has their s—t together!” Jenner then comforted her daughter in the scene, saying, “You’re under a lot of stress. I don’t think you realize the weight of the world is on your shoulders.”
The lawyer-in-training then said, “I don’t know what to do! I don’t want to be part of this narrative. It’s like when is this ever going to end? Like it never will! And I’m stuck with this for the rest of my life.”
Jenner replied, “First of all, you can’t control somebody else’s behavior. You have to look at the history of this. You were there for him for so many years. And then you decided you couldn’t take it anymore.”

Viewers then headed to the comment section of the viral post to share their thoughts. While many users usually center their comments around plastic surgery rumors regarding Jenner’s daughters, countless commenters pivoted towards Jenner’s appearance this time.
One critic assumed, “Kris got a facelift, and it looks like it was still fresh here.” Someone else asked, “What happened to Kris’ face?”

Others dubbed the jump to Jenner from the film crew to be a comedic “jump scare.” One wrote, “This was such a serious but the cut to Kris made me lose it,” another added, “I was not expecting that jump scare!” One other agreed, writing, “For real! Jump scare at its finest,” with crying emojis.
New episodes of The Kardashians can be streamed via Hulu and Disney Plus every Thursday.
