April 29, 2026, 4:25 p.m. ET – Kris Jenner, the queen of reality TV and the ultimate "momager," is putting her foot down on the latest gossip swirling around her. During an episode of the "Khloé in Wonder Land" podcast, released on April 29, she dismissed the recent speculation about her cosmetic surgery with her signature sass and clarity.
In a candid chat with daughter Khloé Kardashian, Jenner revealed, "The first thing I have to do as a manager and somebody who's running these businesses … is make sure what's going on. Sometimes, waking up to some of the craziest stuff is jolting." It's not just business as usual for Jenner – it's a well-oiled machine of media mogul magic.
Jenner, who has been at the helm of a multimedia empire with her famous kids for over two decades, is no stranger to the spotlight. Yet, she was taken aback by the rumor mill claiming she was "furious" with her facelift surgeon, Dr. Steven M. Levine, due to dissatisfaction with the results.
“I love my facelift. I adore my doctor,” Jenner declared. “I’m obsessed with him – one of the most talented, amazing men I’ve ever met and somebody who really put his heart and soul into what he did for me.”
Jenner didn't originally plan on discussing her facelift, but after her appearance at Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sánchez's wedding last summer, the buzz around her new look became impossible to ignore. With rumors spiraling out of control, she felt it was time to clear the air, especially when it started affecting others.
"The only reason to even bring it up or say anything about it is because it's really hurting someone else," she explained. "I can take what people say. I have pretty thick skin, and I don't really need to talk about this issue at all, except for the fact that someone else is involved."
With her ever-expanding empire that includes successful ventures like Kylie Cosmetics, Skims, and Good American, Kris Jenner remains unfazed by the rumor mill. Her ability to manage her brand and her family with grace and determination is a testament to her enduring influence in the world of entertainment and beyond.
