Kourtney Kardashian has shared how she handled a comment made by her friend Jennifer Lawrence. The reality star revealed during the October 8 season eight premiere of The Kardashians that Lawrence had sent her an email after calling her 'more annoying than ever.'
Kourtney told her friend Simon Huck that the Oscar winner had said she felt like Kourtney was one of her sisters. The comments came during a Vanity Fair Lie Detector Test released on November 7 2025. Lawrence said Kourtney should wear whatever she wanted without making an announcement and should simply not watch TV if she did not want a TV in her room.
She explained that the week of the email was particularly sensitive for her.
Kourtney said she felt viewers were ganging up on her while The Kardashians was airing. She later said Lawrence's email was 'so nice' and admitted that the Vanity Fair clip did not seem as harsh when she watched it again. She had not yet replied and joked that Lawrence could come over so they could 'go at it' like Kourtney and Kim.
Kourtney is the mother of Mason, Penelope and Reign with Scott Disick and Rocky with her husband Travis Barker. Jennifer Lawrence is an Academy Award-winning actress who has been close to the Kardashian family for years.
People reported that Lawrence had already addressed the controversy in January and said her quotes sometimes carry more weight than she expects.
Jennifer Lawrence has been a longtime fan of the Kardashian family. Her friendship with Kris Jenner became public in 2015. She later spent time with the family at Jenner's home before interviewing Kim Kardashian on Jimmy Kimmel Live! in November 2017.
The exact date Jennifer first met Kourtney privately has not been publicly confirmed.
