Thankfully (for us, not them), the whole thing was caught on camera. 

The two sisters took to the stage to present the award for the most outstanding reality TV series, the audience that was filled with incredible actors, writers and directors couldn’t contain themselves when the girls talked about celebrating how much their family understands unfiltered and unscripted television.

Our family knows firsthand how truly compelling television comes from real people just being themselves,” Kim said, who seemed unbothered by the giggles coming from the crowd. Kendall, on the other hand, looked pretty mortified.

Now, according to Us Weekly, the girls weren’t briefed about the awkward line, as it was meant to be delivered as a joke.

But they’ve taken it well, with the publication admitting that yes, “it was definitely a bit awkward,” but “Kim and Kendall were really good sports about it.”

For Kendall, we’re wondering when she’s going to stop agreeing to present awards.

Twitter, of course, had a field day with the gaffe.

Kim and Kendall presenting the award came only a few short days after they were feuding over Kim’s son’s name, Psalm.

Last week, Kendall appeared on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon where she revealed she wasn’t a huge fan of the name her half-sister had picked out for their newborn baby boy, Psalm.

“Kim made me come to her house and help her pick a name,” the 23-year-old explained at the time. “And it was this whole thing. She would not let me leave the house until we figured out a name and then ended up going with a name that I didn’t even — like, that I didn’t care for as much. I think they were all really beautiful, but I was kind of rooting for another name.”

Naturally, the interview struck a nerve with the mum-of-four, later revealing what she really thought of her sister’s subtle diss.

“So I saw this interview that Kendall did on Fallon, and I was like, ‘Excuse me! First of all, say it to me first; don’t say it on TV,” the mum-of-four began. “No, but I, there’s like a grace period of when you have to name your child before you have to go into the government offices and do the paperwork. Ten days, you got 10 days before you have to name your child or they are named John Doe.

The makeup mogul continued: “We had like an hour. I woke up in the morning and Kanye was really busy working, but I knew our list. So I called my sisters and Kendall was available, so I said ‘Come over now, you’re not leaving the house until we’ve got the name.'” 

Her theory is not that Kendall didn’t like the name but that she’s salty Kim didn’t go with her suggestion. 

“Kylie and I were vibing on the same name,” Kim said. “I have this big hallway and we were screaming out every name, like: ‘Psalm! Get over here!’ Kylie and I were vibing on the name, but I think Kendall was more mad that her choice wasn’t first, and that’s why she was hating on Fallon.”
