Nikki Glaser Credits Kim Kardashian with Life-Changing Advice During Netflix Comedy Film

April 23, 2026

Nikki Glaser is reflecting on her collaborative experience with Kim Kardashian on a forthcoming Netflix project.

The 41-year-old comedian and 45-year-old reality television personality are set to star together in the comedy film The Fifth Wheel. Speaking at the 2026 TIME100 Gala on Thursday, April 23, Glaser discussed the impact of working alongside Kardashian.

"It was so much fun and she is incredible," Glaser shared with Us Weekly. "I have been a fan of her show for a while, so I felt like I knew her."

Glaser elaborated on her initial interest in connecting with Kardashian, noting that she had long admired the star from afar. "She was always someone I was like, 'I think I would like to get to know her,'" the comedian explained. "She just gives great advice."

Beyond the professional collaboration, Glaser emphasized the personal value she gained from their time together. "She gave me some, like, insane life advice that literally changed my life," Glaser revealed. "It was just a really hard life decision I was making, and she just had a perspective on it that really no one else could have offered me besides her. It helped me have the strength to do something that I was scared to do."

The comedian stressed the significance of Kardashian's guidance, stating that it "really did change my life."

The bond between the two appears to have extended beyond the film set. "She's a really good friend, and you know, you wrap these movies and you kind of go in separate directions, but me and that cast, we're still chatting all the time and keeping up with each other," Glaser noted. "I really love her a lot. I'm really happy to say she's as awesome as I wanted her to be."

The Fifth Wheel, directed by Eva Longoria, rounds out its ensemble cast with Brenda Song, Fortune Feimster, and Will Ferrell.
