Selma Blair Gushes About Kris Jenner Ahead Of 'American Crime Story' Portrayal

Sounds like Selma Blair has found a friend in Kris Jenner.

The 43-year-old actress has recently spent quality time with Jenner to prepare for her upcoming role as the famous momager in the upcoming FX series “American Crime Story: The People vs. O.J Simpson.” She told UsWeekly on Friday that she “happens to love” Jenner.

“I found her to be endearing and extremely intelligent and warm and generous,” Blair told the magazine. “I don’t think I knew just how amazingly likeable she is and how giving.”

Jenner was a close friend of Nicole Brown Simpson and the ex-wife of O.J. Simpson’s lawyer Robert Kardashian.

In May, we got a first look of Blair as Jenner on the set of the series, which is slated to premiere in February 2016. Others in the star-studded cast include David Schwimmer as Kardashian, Cuba Gooding Jr. as O.J. Simpson, and John Travolta as Robert Shapiro, one of Simpson’s defense attorneys.
