O.J. Simpson movie parallels Kim Kardashian’s fake moon landing claim
Two years before Kim Kardashian was born, her “Uncle O.J.” starred in a film that oddly mirrors the discredited conspiracy theory she discussed on her reality show.
In the late 1970s, O.J. Simpson sought to reinvent himself from an NFL star into a Hollywood actor, sports analyst, and public personality. At the time, he worked with his close friend, attorney, and businessman Robert Kardashian, father of Kim Kardashian.
Now, in 2025, one of Simpson’s old movie projects draws unexpected parallels to Kim Kardashian’s remarks on her family’s series The Kardashians. During a Thursday episode, Kardashian reportedly shared her disbelief in the 1969 moon landing.
“I’ve seen a few videos of Buzz Aldrin talking about how it didn’t happen. He says it all the time now, in interviews,” Kardashian claims.
According to fact-checking site FullFact.org, Buzz Aldrin has never stated that the moon landing was faked.
Summary
Kim Kardashian’s recent moon landing skepticism echoes a 1970s O.J. Simpson film, drawing an odd media parallel decades after both became household names.
