WATCH: Kim Kardashian believes major conspiracy theory is true
Is the Earth flat? Is the moon landing real? Was Princess Diana killed? Is anything even real!?
Reality TV star and business mogul Kim Kardashian revealed in an episode of The Kardashians that she doesn't believe the 1969 moon landing happened.
The topic came up while she was chatting to co-star Sarah Paulson on the set of the upcoming legal drama 'All's Fair,' premiering on Hulu next week.
"I'm sending you, so far, a million articles with both Buzz Aldrin and the other one," Kardashian said, referring to Armstrong as she tried to convince Paulson of her belief.

"Yes, do it," Paulson encouraged as Kim began reading excerpts from the alleged interviews.
"This girl says, 'What was the scariest moment?' And [Aldrin] goes, 'There was no scary moment 'cause it didn't happen. It could've been scary, but it wasn't 'cause it didn't happen.'"
Kardashian went on to claim that Aldrin's age might be causing him to accidentally let "the truth" slip.
"So I think it didn’t happen," she added.
Paulson seemed doubtful but promised to do a "massive deep dive" into the theory herself.
When a producer later pressed Kardashian to confirm her stance, she doubled down: "I don't think we did. I think it was fake."
"I've seen a few videos [of] Buzz Aldrin talking about how it didn't happen. He says it all the time now, in interviews. Why does Buzz Aldrin say it didn't happen? There's no gravity on the moon, so why is the flag blowing? The shoes that they have in the museum that they wore on the moon have a different footprint than the photos. Why are there no stars?"
Clips of Aldrin discussing the moon landing have long circulated online, with conspiracy theorists claiming his references to "animation" during old interviews are proof of fakery.

According to online reports, Aldrin was actually describing how broadcasters used animated segments alongside real footage during live coverage in 1969.
When asked how she'd respond to sceptics, Kardashian brushed it off. "They're gonna say I'm crazy no matter what. But like, go to TikTok. See for yourself," she said.
NASA reacts to Kim Kardashian's claims
After the Skims founder's comments aired on Thursday's episode, NASA couldn't resist weighing in.
"Yes, [Kim], we've been to the Moon before... six times!" wrote transportation secretary Sean Duffy on X.
He added that NASA's Artemis mission is preparing for another lunar return under Donald Trump's leadership.
"We won the last space race, and we will win this one too," Duffy concluded.
Kardashian's theory, which has been widely debunked, suggests that Apollo 11 astronauts Neil Armstrong and Buzz Aldrin never actually set foot on the Moon, instead orbiting the Earth while staged footage was broadcast worldwide.
Yes, @KimKardashian, we’ve been to the Moon before… 6 times!

And even better: @NASAArtemis is going back under the leadership of @POTUS.
We won the last space race and we will win this one too 🇺🇸🚀
