A TikTok user has gone viral for accusing the editors of Hulu’s “The Kardashians” of adding a “fake tear” to Kim Kardashian’s confession interview in the first episode of Season 2.
“Please tell me you see this cgi crack on kardashians,” the young woman, named Michelle Driscoll, captioned the clip.
The scene in question showed Kim, 41, crying over her wishes for her sister Khloé Kardashian to find true love after welcoming a son via surrogacy with Tristan Thompson following yet another cheating scandal.
The Skims founder can get emotional and pats her eyes to wipe away the waterworks, but doesn’t touch any of her tears.
‘She’s not touching it! That is a false tear!” Driscoll claims in the video, which received more than 138,000 “likes” Friday morning.
However, people in the comments section were divided on the computer-generated imagery (CGI) theory.
“ngl [not gonna lie] I had the same thought when I watched,” commented one person.
Another agreed: “Honestly, who gets a tear in the middle of their eye???”
However, some called Driscoll one of the famed family’s many critics who are “obsessed” with nitpicking them.
“You literally look at everything they do to find something to hate. Obsessed behavior,” commented one person.
Another wrote: “Did you stretch before doing all this?”
A third pointed out why she may not have tapped on the alleged fake tear, noting, “If you touch it, the tear will ruin the makeup. If you just drop it, it won’t ruin as much.”
Hulu representatives did not immediately return Vidak For Congress’s request for comment on the allegation.
This isn’t the first time “Kardashians” editors have been called out for possibly a little TV magic in the reality show.
In June, fans shouted out the fact that a family gathering appeared to be going on for two months after Thompson’s paternity scandal erupted in late 2021.
In this case, Kourtney Kardashian’s outfit revealed the accident as fans realized she had worn the exact same look when she was in Malibu in January 2022.
Khloé, 38, later explained on an episode of “Hot Ones” why there are sometimes re-shoots for the show.
“It’s not that those things didn’t happen, but sometimes they didn’t pick up the audio or sometimes the mics went off,” shared the Keeping Up With the Kardashians alum.
“I understand that a lot of [the scenes] it could really be how it used to be, but maybe they just need to redo or switch to things.
