16 Years Later, Kim Kardashian and Khloé Still Joke About the Iconic ‘Purse Slam’ Moment

Kim Kardashian, the fashion icon and SKIMS founder, delighted fans by revisiting a legendary moment from the reality show “Keeping Up With the Kardashians” (KUWTK). On November 22, Kim, 44, revealed she was organizing her personal archives and stumbled upon an outfit tied to one of the series’ most shocking scenes – her infamous fight with Khloé Kardashian from season 2, episode 7.

Kim shared a photo of the multi-colored lace-trim babydoll sweater and black purse she wore during the iconic episode. “Organizing my archive. IYKYK,” Kim captioned the Instagram post.

Drama in the Purse Slam Incident

The moment in question occurred in 2008, when Kim and her sisters Khloé and Kourtney Kardashian Barker argued at a car dealership over Kim’s behavior. Later, Kim visited their brother Rob Kardashian’s apartment to reconcile. However, when Khloé tried to shut the door on her, Kim snapped and hit her with a purse, yelling: “Don’t be f—— rude! I swear to God, don’t be f—— rude. I’ll f—— hurt you. Don’t do that.”

During a confessional included in the episode, Kim admitted, “I was so angry.” The scene quickly became one of the most memorable moments in KUWTK history, sparking years of memes and online discussions.

From Drama to Comedy Gold

Though the sisters clashed in the past, they’ve since learned to laugh about their disagreements. Earlier this year, to celebrate the 16th anniversary of the incident, Khloé shared the clip on X (formerly Twitter), writing, “I wish she would try this now!”

Kim swiftly replied with a witty comeback: “Baby, be careful what you wish for… My bag is much bigger today than it was 16 years ago.”

Not to be outdone, Khloé fired back with a playful post: “Damn, I love it when you talk to me like this! Made me a little excited. But remember, ‘Khlomoney’ is still in this body. I just put her to sleep for a few years, but she can and will wake up. I’ll see you and your big-ass bag soon. Make it a Himalayan.”
