An A-Z Guide to the Most Iconic Phrases, Quotes, and Moments in KUWTK History
America has had plenty of prolific families, but very few have an influence as potent and enduring as the Kardashians. Since the debut of their hit E! series Keeping Up With the Kardashians in 2007, the Kar-Jenner family—Kris, Kim, Kourtney, Khloe, Rob, Kendall, Kylie, Caitlyn—have unofficially become the faces of pop culture, social media, controversy, etc. There’s a reason they say the devil works hard, but Kris Jenner works harder.
Over the last 14 years of sharing their lives with the public on E!, fans have watched Kim Kardashian evolve from Paris Hilton’s minion to mogul—along her fellow mogul sister, Kylie—Kendall take the modeling world by storm, Khloe and Kourtney delving into entrepreneurship, and Kris overseeing it all—all while feeding fans iconic phrases, one-liners, and memorable moments every episode. Surely you’ve uttered “Okurrr” at some point in recent years, but did you realize Khloe Kardashian popularized the term before Cardi took it to a new level? Or maybe you opted for Kourtney’s iconic quote, “Kim, there’s people that are dying,” when someone overreacted to something trivial. The Kardashian world is expansive, from famous sayings to restaurants to men. In honor of the family’s series finale of KUWTK, scroll down for an A-Z guide to all Kardashians’ most iconic moments.
Are you pregnant or just hungry?
quote
If you recall, Khloe and Kylie were pregnant around the same time in 2018. Khloe wanted to give Kylie the spotlight to announce her own pregnancy, but the youngest sister opted not to share the good news with the public. Still, Khloe wanted to keep her pregnancy under wraps until she was showing because she didn’t want tabloids to ask if she was “pregnant or just hungry.”

Kourtney used this savage line to end a phone conversation with a lying Scott Disick, her then-boyfriend and father of their three children, Mason, Penelope, and Reign Disick.
Dash Boutique
noun
Who could forget the Kardashian sisters’ fashion and accessories boutique Dash? Originally opened in Calabasas in 2006, the sisters subsequently opened locations in Miami (remember Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami?) and New York (remember Kourtney and Kim Take New York?). What’s more, E! even launched another spin-off, Dash Dolls, which followed the boutique’s employees as they navigate the city as young professionals.
