Kris Jenner stepped out of her comfort zone a bit in this week’s episode of The Kardashians, starring in a music video for Meghan Trainor.
The 67-year-old Kardashian-Jenner patriarch – who recently returned from Paris Fashion Week – said in the Season 4 premiere she wanted to ‘get off the hamster wheel a bit and enjoy life,’ adding she would usually say ‘yes’ to too many things and become ‘spread thin.’
While admitting she would normally say no to a music video – despite appearing in Ariana Grande‘s thank u next in 2018 – she said yes to appear in Trainor’s video for Mother.
She admitted during the shoot that she didn’t even tell her kids about it, adding she had a fear her kids wouldn’t like it.
Even Kim Kardashian admitted she thought it would be, ‘So embarassing,’ though she was ultimately proud of her momager.

Kris then tells Corey at dinner that, ‘Meghan Trainor has written a new song and the name of the song is I Am Your Mother and she asked Shelly to ask me if I would be in her music video.’
Corey says, ‘Oh nice. Don’t wear see-through clothes, that’s my only thing. I don’t know what’s happening in these videos these days.’
‘I think that ordinarily I would pass but something is telling me this would be really fun,’ Kris says, as Corey adds, ‘If it makes you happy, do it.’
‘This is really the year of me only saying yes to things that I really want to do. I think I’m gonna tell Shelly that it’s a hard yes from me… and Corey,’ Kris says, as Corey jokes he will give her a ‘hard yes later on.’
Back in Los Angeles, Kris is on the set of Meghan Trainor’s music video, with Kris dressed in an elaborate white dress with a diamond necklace and earrings.
‘I said yes to this because this is fun and it’s glamorous and it’s Hollywood. I hope that I can live up to Meghan’s expectation of what we’re doing here today, because I don’t want to let her down but this is really a lot of work,’ Kris says in confession.
Kris is filming a video, seemingly for her social media, with Meghan Trainor herself, before they start production on the video.
Kris takes direction from the director and choreographer Charm La’Donna, adding in confession, ‘It’s such an amazing experience. It’s the music business. It’s exciting. It’s glamorous. It’s beautiful. But it’s hard. It’s not as easy as it looks.’

Kris does another take and nails it, as the director jumps up and down for joy.
‘I have this fear that if I tell my kids, they’re gonna ask me, “Why do you want to be in a music video, mom? Like, why would you do that?”’
They show footage from the finished video as Kris admits in confession, ‘As much as I would love to share this great experience with them, I think when it’s all said and done, I’ll just send them the tape.’
After Cici admits that she told Kim about the music video shoot, Kris video calls Kris from the set,’ as Kim says, ‘Oh my gosh.’
Kim admits in confession, ‘So at first I was like, “Oh my God this is going to be so embarrassing.” And I was just like afraid that she wouldn’t know what she was doing, but she killed it. You know, in life you just have to have fun and try new things, and why not.’
They cut back to the set where Kris gets a hug from Meghan and the director, thanking everyone.
After wrapping, a producer asks Kris how it was, and Kris says, ‘It was so fun. It was really great to be part of such a professional, fabulous production. To be my age and be doing music videos is a little unusual, but I’m really glad I did this because I had the time of my life.’
