Why Kim Kardashian’s casting in “American Horror Story: Delicate” makes sense.
-adjacent spectacle with some contemporary twists.
In the midst of all this, Kardashian is actually pretty good. As several users have noted on Twitter, she seems to be channelling, in the role of Siobhan, someone like her mother and manager, Kris Jenner, a master of promotion and spin who is often seen as the force behind her daughters’ success. As one familiar with the easy shifts from personal to professional practiced by confidantes on the payroll, Kardashian makes the part feel lived-in. “Your joy is my joy.
But, if casting Kardashian in a Kris-style role is at least partly a P.R. stunt, I also found that it aligned in deeper, interesting ways with the logic of “A.H.S.: Delicate.” In the show’s title sequence, as portentous music plays, we see a collage of colorful flickering images: surgical implements, needles, knives, pearls, blooming and burning flowers, lipstick tubes, a stud-embellished stiletto.
But Kardashian is also a prime example of a woman who has taken pain and alchemized it into worldly power. Since emerging as a public figure almost two decades ago, she has sculpted her own extreme, and extremely influential, version of femininity, seemingly nipping and tucking, exercising and starving her way to a new beauty ideal. Watching her in the role of Siobhan, I was struck anew by her cyborgian features, as nearly immovable as a gorgeous statue’s.
