Did Kris Jenner Really Get Tristan Thompson His Job At ESPN?
Tristan Thompson works for ESPN now. His play on the court didn’t get him his job. It turns out that Kris Jenner is responsible for getting him the gig at ESPN. The Kardashians continue to rule the world, I guess.
Check out this clip from a recent episode of Keeping up with the Kardashians. If you weren’t aware, the show is back on TV as a Hulu exclusive.
“I appreciate you helping make this all happen,” Thompson told Jenner, who serves as the manager for her famous brood, Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian, as well as Kylie and Kendall Jenner.
“This is a dream,” Jenner, 68, said.
“I mean, the fact that we could have that call on a Friday and they said, ‘Can you start Monday?’ That never happens to anyone.”
Later in the episode, Jenner explained how she got the deal done for Thompson.
“I was able to reach out to ABC [and] Disney and really express how talented I thought Tristan was, and how they would really benefit from him being a part of the ESPN team, for example,” she recalled.
“It’s about the art of negotiating,” Thompson, 32, said. “It’s what you’ve mastered.”
“When it’s that easy, it’s a lot of fun,” Jenner added. “It’s so rewarding for me.”
Thompson, 32, dated Khloe Kardashian for a long time. They have two kids together (True, 5, and son Tatum, born in August 2022).
Free advice for people looking to get hired by ESPN. All you have to do is date one of the Kardashians! Kris is happy to oblige… as long as she gets her 10%, of course.
