During her launch engagement for her NikeSKIMS partnership in New York, Kim Kardashian made an appearance on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon on September 24. While on the talk show, the reality star discussed her acting, the new SKIMS project, her mom setting her up on a blind date, and her tattoo.
Yep! You read that correctly! The Kim Kardashian has a tattoo, after stating several years ago on Keeping Up With The Kardashians that she'd never get one. It's like putting a bumper sticker on a Bentley. Do it and you'd ruin its beauty.
Kim Kardashian shares the secret of her tattoo while on Jimmy Fallon
We knew here at Kardashian Dish that she had some ink, but you won't see it on the exterior. She has a tiny tattoo of an infinity symbol on the inner part of her lower lip. It was to mark her era when she was on Saturday Night Live in 2021. Kim portrayed an assembly of characters, including a gorgeous reimaging of her favorite Disney Princess, Jasmine.
However, it was the tattoo talk that was the highlight on Fallon, and Kim spilled the details on why she got it, much to the shock of others, and defended her choice.
"Tattoos were against my ethos. I got it in my mouth so that no one would see it, but I got it with all my friends — an infinity symbol, and all of my girls came to support [me on SNL]."
When asked if getting the tat hurt, as it was on such a delicate part of her body, Kim replied with a simple explaination.
"It didn't hurt!," the mom of four says. "I have a really high pain tolerance."
She then shows the infinity smbol to Fallon, with the cameras panning in on its design. Kim even says that when shes brushing her teeth, she'd forget that her ink is there, have a moment of panic, and finally realizes that she has a tattoo. Since it's not visible, that's understandable, though one would remember getting body art.
For the visit, Kim wore a skintight black latex dress and matching platform heels. She pairs it with an ankle bracelet and choker. The look is giving late1990s vibes and it totally works for her. Kim's a major fan of archival pieces, so it wouldn't be surprising if her Fallon look was a blast from the past.
The last time Kim was on The Tonight Show, she promoted her SKIMS-inspired Beats headphones back in August 2024.
