Kim Kardashian Gave Nikki Glaser Game-Changing Advice on Her New Movie

Nikki Glaser says Kim Kardashian didn't just show up for work on their new movie. She dropped some real-life wisdom that, by Glaser's account, flipped a big decision on its head. Not exactly the intel I expected to come out of the Time100 Gala, but here we are.The Fifth Wheel set turned into a life summitGlaser, 41, talked about working with Kardashian, 45, on Netflix 's upcoming project "The Fifth Wheel" while at the 2026 Time100 Gala on Thursday, April 23, at New York City's Frederick P. Rose Hall. She's watched Kim's show for years, so meeting her on set felt like meeting someone she already sort of knew. And yes, she says working together was genuinely fun and that Kim was, in her words, pretty incredible."She gave me some, like, insane life advice that literally changed my life."Glaser wouldn't spill what the advice was, only that she was staring down a tough call, Kim offered a perspective almost no one else could, and it gave her the nerve to do something she was scared to do. They didn't just bond for the cameras either — Glaser calls Kim a real friend, and says the cast is still actively chatting post-wrap. The verdict on Kardashian from the inside? Exactly as awesome as Glaser hoped she'd be."The Fifth Wheel" quick rundownPlatform: Netflix Producer/co-star: Kim Kardashian Director: Eva Longoria Cast: Nikki Glaser, Kim Kardashian, Fortune Feimster, Brenda Song Glaser also joked she'd love to pop up on Hulu 's "The Kardashians" at some point — consider her officially manifesting.Meanwhile, Glaser's comedy streak is still rollingHer latest stand-up special, "Good Girl," just hit Hulu on Friday, April 24 — landing nearly three months after she hosted the Golden Globes for the second time in January 2026. You probably remember the bit that went wide: she pulled a 1991 Teen Beat deep cut where Leonardo DiCaprio named his favorite food as "pasta, pasta, pasta." DiCaprio, 51, apparently enjoyed the callback. He sent Glaser tubs of pasta afterward. She initially thought it was a prank — the kind of thing that happens when you assume someone bought your number online — but once it checked out, she was all in on the gesture. In her telling, he went the extra mile, and for a lifelong Leo fan who was fully obsessed back in the day, it landed as: the guy actually has a heart.
