During a comedy roast on Sunday (5 May), Kim Kardashian made a joke about her father's connection to OJ Simpson.
When the event was broadcasted live from the Kia Forum in Los Angeles, the reality star who is 43 years old, faced constant booing when she made her entrance on stage.
Making a reference to her well-known sex tape from 2007, she joked about the rumors of her past relationship with Tom Brady. In a humorous manner, she commented that although there were talks of them being together, she would never confirm or deny it. Instead, she would joke around and release a similar tape.
"I do understand that it could never happen. You have the appearance of an ex-athlete with sharp cheekbones and smooth hair which resembles my stepfather Caitlyn Jenner," she mentioned, implying the similarity in appearance.
I have mixed feelings about you wanting to take off my clothes just to wear them. It's understandable that transitioning from the NFL to everyday life can be challenging, however, I believe that my stepdad can serve as a positive role model for you.
This individual is amongst the top-ranking athletes globally, demonstrating the endless possibilities that await in the next phase of one's journey.
You have the ability to transform into a commentator, a conservative Republican, or a self-assured and empowered female.
She stated: "To be honest, it's difficult for me to witness people verbally attack you, however, I believe many of my relatives have already stood up for ex-football players."
Robert Kardashian, who was Kim's dad, gained fame for being a member of the legal team defending NFL player Simpson during his highly publicized trial for murder in 1995.
Last month, Simpson passed away and was acquitted of murdering his wife, Nicole Brown Simpson, and her friend, Ron Goldman in 1994 after a highly-publicized trial that is still remembered in the annals of US criminal justice history.

At the roast event, which was emceed by Kevin Hart and included a cameo from Ben Affleck, Kardashian expressed: "Stepping back from work can be challenging, similar to ending a relationship that didn't end well."
I will share a piece of advice that I usually give to all of my former partners - wishing you fortune in recognizing that your peak moments are already in the past.
Many people view Brady as one of the top NFL athletes ever and he was victorious in the Super Bowl on a staggering seven occasions.
He was once married to the famous Brazilian supermodel, Gisele Bundchen, but their marriage ended in a well-known divorce.
After the roast, many people have been giving negative feedback towards comedian Tony Hinchcliffe for the jokes he made about Kardashian.
Hinchcliffe, recognized for his humorous insults, was chatting about the renowned film Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy and its famous phrase "Whale's vagina" before he diverted his attention to Kardashian during his roast.
Hinchcliffe started his speech mentioning a whale's reproductive organ, and it made him remember Kim Kardashian's presence in the room. He commented on her dating history with black men and referred to it as a celebration in a sports game. He then addressed Kardashian directly.
"Kim, let me give you some advice, please cross your legs," he suggested. "The amount of public attention your groin region is getting is even more than that of Kendrick and Drake combined."
A few people who watched the show felt that the statement was too extreme, calling it "extremely sexist" and "disgusting". The Independent has reached out to Netflix for their response.
Further investigation carried out by the Press Association.
