Is Ellen DeGeneres finally losing her mind, or is she just determined to give her bestie Kris Jenner a heart attack? Because honey, the former talk show queen just served up a TERROR SPECIAL that had the momager absolutely SCREAMING.
Listen, we all know Ellen loves a good jump scare—it’s literally her brand—but this comeback prank on 70-year-old Kris Jenner was UNHINGED in the best way possible. The video dropped on Instagram Saturday, and let us tell you, Kris’s reaction was absolutely PRICELESS. When that terrified shriek of “What the f*** is wrong with you?” pierced through our phones, we nearly dropped ours too. At 68 years old, Ellen clearly still has it, and by “it” we mean the power to absolutely WRECK her friends on camera.
The clip shows Ellen doing what she does best—hiding and waiting to traumatize someone she loves. The NSFW language flying out of Kris’s mouth tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about how effective this prank was. This wasn’t some gentle “boo”—this was a full-blown existential crisis caught on video. We’re talking genuine terror, unfiltered rage, and zero filter whatsoever. The momager of the Kardashian-Jenner empire got absolutely played, and honestly? We’re living for it.
What makes this even MORE delicious is that these two have been through EVERYTHING together. Ellen’s show gave the Kardashian family endless coverage, and Kris has been a loyal friend through Ellen’s career ups and downs. So when Ellen brings back her signature scary prank move just to mess with her bestie? That’s not malice, honey—that’s LOVE. That’s the kind of friendship where you can literally terrify someone and they still laugh about it later (after their heart rate returns to normal).
The internet is absolutely OBSESSED with this throwback energy. Fans are praising Ellen for keeping the chaos alive even after her talk show ended, and honestly, we’re here for it. In a world where celebrities are constantly curating their image, there’s something refreshingly authentic about watching two icons just torture each other for entertainment.
The question isn’t whether Ellen still has her scary prank magic—it’s whether Kris Jenner will EVER trust her again. And frankly, we’re betting she won’t fall for it next time, which means Ellen’s going to have to get even MORE creative. The competition is ON.
What do you think? A) Ellen’s pranks are legendary and hilarious B) Kris deserved better and Ellen needs to chill
