After years of gossipy guessing and plain-as-day photo evidence, Khloe Kardashian has admitted to, well, some work here or there.
As reported via Daily Mail, during the reunion special, “Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Final Curtain Part 2," Khloe Kardashian opened up about the constant media banter about her looks, and what scalpels or injections might have been involved.
Host Andy Cohen inched his way into the demi-confession by simply asking if the Good American founder ever felt sister Kim and Kourtney received better treatment because of the way they looked. To which Khloe responded, “Oh, 100 percent.”
“We did so many photoshoots,” Khloe explains, “where they would receive racks of clothes and I was told by so many different stylists — I was given about two or three pieces of clothing, that's it — 'not to worry' because I'd be in the background anyways.”
This insecurity diving board led to Khloe further opening up about her body and eventually her face, which lately has gotten the most scrutiny.
Fans have long speculated about nose jobs, fingernails, etc., but that’s par for the course in the Kardashian realm.
“Well, for me, everyone says, ‘Oh, my gosh, she's had her third face transplant.' 'I've had one nose job -- Dr. Raj Kanodia. And everybody’s so upset, like why don’t I talk about it? No one’s ever asked me.”
Journalism schools, you are slacking!
So Cohen asked, and Khloe answered… sort of.
After some awkward gab of Khloe having a different father and, according to Kim, more Armenian genetics in her, the chat moved into the more obvious to all questions of Khloe’s face - Botox, nose jobs, etc.
"I've done, sure, injections. Not really Botox. I've responded horribly to Botox," Khloe continued, as her family -- no strangers to constant rumors about their appearance -- sat there noticeably uncomfortable.
This seemed like a case of the Jan Brady of the family actually being right about her put-upon middle child status. Cohen could’ve swerved and asked the other Kardashians the same thing.
Instead, it was back to Khloe and that recent unretouched photo of her in a leopard-print bikini that blew up the internet with gossip and amateur Facetune detective work.

Khloe addressed the constant media and online scrutiny to live up to her Kardashian standards (which let’s face it, you don’t need Facetune to notice either).
She continued to say that her imperfections have been “micro-analyzed,” but maintained that she has every right to control what she wants to socially share. And that the pressure caused her to try some procedures. That was about the extent of the details uncovered.
When the whole family was posed with the question of whether, after 20 years on the air, their fame has involved creating unrealistic standards of beauty, Kim answered, “No, I don't because we do the work. We get up and we get out.”
Yeah, we don’t know what that means either. Her word salad continued.
“When the show first started, I was very secure. Very secure. And then, during the first couple seasons, I became insecure because of the public, um, opinions of myself. Then I had, I think, a good run of being secure, and then, I think recently, I've become now insecure again. So I guess it just goes... You know, up and down. There's, there's this crazy environment and culture on the Internet of this bullying that is just so bad.”
