The video then cut to a video of Jenner lip-syncing “Lady Marmalade” with the text “U just got #Krissed,” showing her fans she was merely joking about her alleged political move.
The Keeping up with the KardashiansAn alum joined the #Krissed viral trend. The clip features her dancing as a joke. The trend is essentially a TikTok version of YouTube’s “RickRolling,” which gives users a bait-and-switch by teasing them with something intriguing and then cutting to the Rick Astley song “Never Gonna Give You Up.” In this case, users are hit with a clip of Jenner from a 2012 music video the whole family shot of them lip-syncing “Lady Marmalade.”

The Chicago native, who is 45, spoke to podcaster Joe Rogan at the time that “it was something that God put in my heart back in 2015.
”He continued: “A few days before the MTV Awards it hit me in the shower. It was the first time I thought of it. I started laughing and joy flooded my body and soul. I felt that energy. I felt that spirit.”
The “Off the Grid” rapper admitted that some of his closest friends and colleagues were not on board with the idea, but he committed to the idea because he believed he would “definitely be a billionaire someday.”
He continued: “Not that that’s a reason why someone should become president, but it’s to say, you know, at that time I was around 50 million dollars in debt, and I knew I had the confidence that I would be able to turn that around.”
