Kim’s late father, Robert Kardashian Sr., was best friends with O.J. Simpson and represented him in his 1994 murder trial

Kim Kardashian is willing to lean on her connection to Orenthal James “O.J.” Simpson if it’ll help prevent her birthday festivities from getting derailed!

In a preview for next week’s episode of The Kardashians, Kim tells cameras, “It’s my birthday week and I’ve been called to do jury duty.”

Despite that, Kim, 43, still intends to celebrate properly and starts to think outside the box for how she can escape her governmental duties.

“I feel like there’s some kind of O.J. connection that could get me out of jury duty,” she says, before laughing and adding, “Ha! Just kidding!”
