Kim Kardashian Tricked Into Moon Landing Hoax By The Most Unreliable Source Ever

Khloé Kardashian took the blame for igniting Kim Kardashian‘s belief that the 1969 moon landing was a hoax during a recent interview, admitting she helped fuel the conspiracy theory that has stirred headlines and online debate.

The confession followed Kim’s viral remarks during an October episode of The Kardashians, in which the SKIMS mogul claimed Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin never made it to the lunar surface.

In a confessional, Kim said, “I don’t think we did. I think it was fake. 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. Why does Buzz Aldrin say it didn’t happen?”

“I don’t believe in the moon landing (either),” Khloé told People. “That’s very controversial. And I feel bad because I think I riled Kim up about it, and I’ve gotten her into a lot of trouble!”

Khloé, 40, said she and her brother, Rob Kardashian, played a role in shaping Kim’s view. “I don’t think it happened. I think me and my brother (Rob Kardashian), we’ve fed her a lot of information. I don’t know, I feel bad about that, but I’m going to die on this hill!”

NASA didn’t let the claim slide. The agency responded on social media, writing, “Yes, @kimkardashian, we’ve been to the Moon before… 6 times!”

The Apollo program, which ran from 1961 to 1972, included six successful crewed landings. The first, Apollo 11, took place on July 20, 1969, when Armstrong and Aldrin famously walked on the moon while Michael Collins orbited above.

Despite overwhelming scientific evidence, moon landing denial has persisted for decades.

A 2019 YouGov poll found that 10% of Americans either didn’t believe or weren’t sure the moon landing happened. Common claims include suspicions over the waving flag, lack of stars in photos and alleged inconsistencies in shadows, arguments long debunked by experts and NASA.

Khloé added that she doesn’t expect any official acknowledgment from the government.

“Because then if they admit that didn’t happen… I mean, there’s a long list of things you can look into, and some are too scary to talk about publicly because you don’t want anyone getting mad at you,” she said.

In the episode, Kim attempted to convince All’s Fair co-star Sarah Paulson of her theory.

Buzz Aldrin, now 95, has occasionally made ambiguous remarks in interviews that conspiracy theorists have seized on, though he has consistently affirmed that the moon landing was real.

Aldrin’s comments have often been taken out of context or misinterpreted.

Drake Promises Epic Finale For “Iceman” Live Stream Series

Drake is scrapping traditional album rollouts for his “Iceman” live stream series.

The Grammy-winning rapper ditched the usual album cycle, no teasers, no cover art countdowns, no lead singles, instead opting for cinematic live streams on YouTube that blend unreleased tracks with surreal storytelling.

The first episode, which aired July 4 from an ice warehouse in Toronto, ran nearly an hour and featured Drake dancing through the facility and measuring ice blocks before premiering “What Did I Miss?”

Drake told Complex that the idea for the live-stream format came from his dissatisfaction with the repetitive nature of modern album releases.

“I was asked by a creative partner what I love and hate about rolling out an album,” he said. “I expressed that I love the opportunity for a clean slate of thoughts and excitement and messaging when it comes to the music. What I hate is the redundancy of this formulaic approach that’s engrained in our brains from early label days. Single, video, single, video, album cover post, etc.”

His desire to stretch his creative limits played a significant role in the decision.

“I have been dying to act and have been dying for a challenge,” he said. “The game is extremely calm seas right now. Nobody is rocking any boat on the water and so once we discussed a live stream rollout, it just sounded like the perfect mix of risk and reward for me.”

The streams are ambitious in both scope and production. According to Matte Babel, chief brand officer at DreamCrew and part of Drake’s management team, Episode 3 in Milan required “20 cameras, over 100 crew, over 10 locations.”

Babel also revealed that tight timelines and international travel made it difficult to secure permits, leading to issues mid-shoot.

“We lost a couple cameras mid-shoot because the police were like you can’t shoot here,” he said.

Each episode weaves together narrative threads, including mysterious characters like a Pinocchio-inspired figure, and features cameos from artists like Central Cee and Yeat. The format also allows for real-time audience feedback on unreleased songs.

“It wasn’t something we spoke about, but it’s inherently a byproduct of this idea,” Drake said. “Being outside and getting a chance to interact with fans, and initiate audience participation as well as feedback has been amazing.”

Drake confirmed more episodes are on the way and teased a major finale.

“The finale will be our best work,” he said.
