In a recent episode of her podcast “Khloé in Wonderland,” Khloé Kardashian revealed that she participated in a family screening of the much-anticipated biopic ‘Michael’, which chronicles the life of the legendary pop icon Michael Jackson. The intimate gathering took place at the home of their mother, Kris Jenner, and featured not only Khloé and her mother but also her siblings and a few significant others.

Khloé, 41, recounted the experience of watching the film together as a family. “I saw some of the Michael Jackson movie only because my mum had it at her house, and all the siblings went to watch it,” she said during the episode aired on May 20. The screening included various family members along with their partners, including Kourtney Kardashian, who is married to Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker, and Kylie Jenner, who has been dating Oscar-nominated actor Timothée Chalamet since 2023.

Although the evening did not conclude as Khloé had hoped—she revealed that she had to leave early to put her children to bed—she expressed her enjoyment of the time spent with her family. “I loved curling up with my mum while my sisters were with their partners,” she shared, highlighting the familial bonds that the Kardashian clan continues to cultivate during such film screenings, a tradition they are known for.
Among those present was Kim Kardashian, who brought along her boyfriend, Lewis Hamilton. The Formula 1 champion took to social media to express his admiration for the film, encouraging his followers to watch it. He shared a post on Instagram, stating, “I loved watching this movie with all my heart. I love Michael. Go see it.” Kim, 45, and Hamilton, 41, have been linked romantically since March and were first spotted together after sharing flirtatious exchanges on social media.
The connection between Kim and the Jackson family runs deep, as she revealed she dated T.J. Jackson, nephew of Michael Jackson and Janet Jackson, throughout her high school years. During an episode of ‘The Kardashians’ aired in February 2025, she reminisced about her personal relationship with the Jackson family, describing Janet Jackson as “my everything.” Kim recalled a memorable moment at a family gathering when she felt the pressure of playing Pictionary with the Jacksons, reinforcing the close ties she feels to the iconic musical family.
While it remains unclear if Kylie, 28, and her partner Timothée Chalamet attended the screening, their absence did not overshadow the event’s importance to Khloé and Kim. Khloé’s sister Kim was particularly enthusiastic about the star of the biopic, Jaafar Jackson, who portrayed Michael. At the recently-held Met Gala, she expressed her excitement about Jaafar’s performance, stating, “We just saw the Michael movie and his transformation was incredible.”
The movie ‘Michael’ has generated considerable buzz since its release, providing not only entertainment but also a chance for audiences to reflect on the legacy of one of music’s most celebrated figures. As the Kardashians shared this experience together, they contributed to the ongoing conversation surrounding Jackson’s impact on pop culture.
As family movie nights continue to be a cherished tradition for the Kardashian clan, this particular screening of ‘Michael’ served as not only a tribute to an icon but also as an opportunity for the family to bond over shared experiences and memories. The film is currently being screened in theatres, offering fans a glimpse into the life of a musical legend.
The Kardashians’ ability to connect their personal lives with broader cultural moments continues to resonate with their audience, making the family not just a source of entertainment but also a fascinating study in contemporary celebrity culture. As they navigate their own relationships and experiences, their shared moments—like attending a film screening—remind fans of the importance of family connections amid their high-profile lives.
