Kathy Bates revealed that Kim Kardashian once offered to feature her in an ad for the reality star’s shapewear line SKIMS.
However the collaboration never materialized, so Kathy is now reminding the reality star that she is still prepared to model for the brand.
She informed People magazine that Kim had sent her some SKIMS apparel two or three years ago, promising to feature her in an ad. “So Kim, I’m still waiting. I’m prepared,” she added. At 43, Kim debuted SKIMS in 2019 and has since recruited a diverse range of celebrity spokesmodels to promote the brand.
Stars who have promoted SKIMS including Kate Moss, Cardi B, Lana Del Rey, Usher, Brooke Shields, Kim Cattrall, Ice Spice, Patrick Mahomes and Snoop Dogg.

More recently Kim has appeared in a supporting role on the latest season of American Horror Story – a show Kathy has acted on multiple ᴛι̇ɱes in past seasons.
Kim has been widely derided online for her portrayal of publicist Siobhan Corbyn on the anthology series’ new season Delicate.
However Kathy said she heard Kim is ‘doing a great job’ on the show – though she has not ‘had a chance to see it’ as she has been ‘learning lines’ for her own new series.
In recent months, Kathy has been busily working on a gender-flipped reboot of the classic 1980s legal series Matlock for CBS.
The original show was a mystery drama starring Andy Griffith as a cranky and formidably effective defense lawyer called Ben Matlock.
Now Kathy, 75, is starring in a new spin-off as Madeline ‘Matty’ Matlock, and this ᴛι̇ɱe the storyline has been given a distinctly comic flavor.
Matty is a woɱaп in her 70s who goes back to work as a lawyer and is initially disdained by the younger colleagues at her firm.
However, she soon reveals that she is capable of using her harmless appearance and sweet-old-lady act to devastating effect in hoodwinking her professional adversaries.
