Khloé Kardashian may be heading back to the small screen on “The Kardashians,” but she isn’t looking to make a return to acting any time soon!

Although her sister Kim Kardashian has a growing acting career, Khloé isn’t looking to get in front of the camera any time soon.

In 2010, she played a fictional character named Dannii Hillman in a short video production called “Psychotherapist.”

That being said, she has made several cameos and guest appearances as herself. In 2010, she guest-starred as herself alongside her sisters in the season 3 episode of “90210” titled “Senior Year, Baby.”

In 2013, she appeared as herself in Kevin Hart’s satirical comedy series “Real Husbands of Hollywood.” The following year, she made a brief cameo appearance as herself in “Royal Pains.” She has also appeared in several “MADtv” sketch comedy hits.

That being said, she is best known for appearing on screen as herself in “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” from 2007 to 2021 and “The Kardashians” from 2022 to the present.

She has appeared in the spin-offs “Kourtney and Khloé Take Miami,” “Kourtney and Khloé Take The Hamptons,” and “Khloé & Lamar.” She was also co-host of “The X Factor,” host of “Kocktails with Khloé,” Host and EP of “Revenge Body with Khloé Kardashian,” and executive producer of “The Girls.”

Why Khloé Is Not Interested In Acting

While speaking to The Hollywood Reporter about her new series, she was asked about the time in season three of “Keeping Up With The Kardashians” when she took an acting class. Khloé admitted that she was “literally traumatized” from that whole experience and blamed “season three for why I am so traumatized when it comes to acting.”

“But I get asked to act all the time and to do these roles. I’m never gonna say never, but currently it’s not something I feel like makes my heart happy,” she revealed. “It’s not like where my passion is with anything.”

However, she did express support for Kim and Kylie’s “acting era.”

Someone Wants To See Khloé In A Movie

When she was asked to name a specific project that she was approached for, Khloé said, “I don’t know anything specific, but I get asked all the time: ‘Would you ever do a movie?’”

“People will say someone wants you for a movie, and I’m like, no, no, no. I have taken meetings with people who wanted to do a scripted series with me, and I just don’t know if it’s my thing,” she continued, adding that she is so “honored” and “flattered” to be asked.

“But I also don’t want to do something that I don’t feel like I could give 100 percent with. I don’t think it’s fair to any production, any people that are working their butts off,” she continued. “It would have to be something I take classes in, really study and try to be the best I can be at it.”

She went on to say, “It’s not something I would ever do, like, OK, acting sounds cool today. That’s just not who I am. I would have to take it seriously, and right now, I don’t know if I have the bandwidth to do all that extra stuff to give another workplace what they deserve out of me.”

Khloé Loved How ‘Green’ She Was First Starting Out

Khloé has been doing reality TV for almost twenty years now. When asked about the experience, Khloé said she appreciated “how green” she was at the time. Before filming, she and her famous family were warned they might not get a second season, which gave her a sense of freedom while filming.

“Kourtney and I specifically did not think about it,” she recalled. “We just were like, ‘F-ck it, we’re gonna film whatever we want to do.’”

“We were just goofs. We weren’t overthinking. We never thought we were gonna be famous or be a star — nothing like that,” she continued. “And that’s what made everything work the way it did because you could smell that stuff. You know when someone’s putting on. You know when someone’s contrived.”

“We were just who we were. I was 22 years old,” she added. “And to be green, naive and not overthink anything. What a blessing.”

All six episodes of “The Girls” are currently available to stream on Disney+ and Hulu. THR was also the first to reveal that season 8 of “The Kardashians” will premiere on Hulu in October 2026.
