Why This Oscar Nominee Refuses to Give Kim Kardashian Acting Advice

One Oscar-nominated actor is refusing to help Kim Kardashian in her new career path as an actor, and the reason may surprise you.

During an interview with Daily Mail, published Monday, Oscar-nominee Glenn Close shared the reasons she would not “give Kim Kardashian any advice” on the set of their new Ryan Murphy show “All’s Fair.” Close has been nominated for eight Academy Awards but has never won, making her the most-nominated actor (tied with Peter O’Toole) who’s never won an Oscar.

“I was curious,” Close said of working with Kardashian. “I couldn’t wait to meet her. I had never done a Ryan Murphy show before, which is a whole other universe, and I think she would be surprised at how I was. I had to find my feet.”

But despite Close’s veteran status in the business, she told the outlet, “I would not presume to give Kim Kardashian advice. I think she’s a very, very brilliant woman. I think she could choose to do anything she wants.”

Close continued: “Frankly, if she wants to be an actress, that’s one road. But she could be. She’s a great executive. She’s a great businesswoman. She’s a very, very involved mother. She’s getting her law degree. So, I think she has huge potential and that she’s fulfilled already as a woman. And frankly, I will be fascinated to see what she chooses to do.”

However, even though Close won’t be sharing any of her acting experience with Kardashian, the latter has bequeathed her Oscar-nominated co-star with some invaluable fashion inspiration. “I feel I can be myself, and I’m kind of experimenting now,” Close said. “I’m in a phase of life, especially after doing All’s Fair and kind of seeing Kim’s different hairstyles every day. I’m thinking I want to do that. So, I’m in a time where I want to find who else I am and work maybe with fashion a little bit more.”

All’s Fair is expected to premiere on Hulu later this year.
