After the first season of the show arrived on Disney+ and Hulu, it received a disastrous 6% rating on Rotten Tomatoes. Kardashian mentioned how the rating made her believe it was career suicide.
However, Kardashian later noted that despite the low rating, the show had become a success for the streaming platforms. So much so that it has been renewed for a second season.
“I just thought it was so funny that people came in and wanted to hate on it so much that the hate turned into viewers wanting to see how bad it was,” Kardashian shared during her interview.

She added, “So they tuned in and they made it like a number one show for weeks on end because they were tuning in to see how ridiculous we would be, and I think there’s something kind of funny about that and special and like important to show that the critics [don’t decide].”
She also admitted, “There was a second when I thought, ‘Oh my God, my career is over, and these girls are gonna hate me because I just brought in this whole wave of hate that they’ve probably never experienced before in their amazing acting lives.’”

“Sarah [Paulson] left me the nicest voicemail that gave me the most confidence and changed everything for me. And that is when I went for it and was like, ‘Okay, what do I do? We double down,'” she said.
Paulson later explained the reason behind her positive voicemail for Kardashian. She noted that the model is a “special person” and even praised her performance in the second season.
She shared, “I think what people are going to see this year is there were a couple of scenes in particular towards the end of the season where both Naomi and I were both like, ‘Jesus, woman’.”

“I’m not saying she wasn’t good before she was. It’s just there’s been a whole other kind of level of confidence and funny and all the things that you are as a person were coming through more as a character, which I thought was just so divine,” Paulson concluded.
