Kendall Jenner Trolls Exes, Pokes Fun at Kardashian Curse in Super Bowl Ad
Kendall Jenner is calling in favors when it comes to her Super Bowl 2026 pick.
Ahead of the New England Patriots and Seattle Seahawks facing off in the big game Feb. 8, The Kardashians star—who will place an official bet benefitting charity for Fanatics Sportsbook—enlisted former NFL star and analyst Tom Brady to help her choose a potential winner.
“I am trying to figure out who I want to go for for the Super Bowl and I am an information person,” Kendall told Tom after she FaceTimed him on Jimmy Fallon’s The Tonight Show Jan. 28. “I feel like I need all the information I can get to make an educated decision. I was thinking you’re the perfect person to ask for that information.”
To which Tom—who took home six Super Bowl rings for the Patriots and one for the Tampa Bay Buccaneers throughout his legendary career—joked, “I hope I am.”
But despite his expertise in the matter, Tom couldn’t confidently wager either team.
“Wait a minute, we’ve got two weeks to prepare for this,” Tom said. “Who’s gonna win? I don’t know.”
Still, the 48-year-old—who shares son Jack, 18, with ex Bridget Moynahan, as well as Benjamin, 15, and Vivian, 12, with ex Gisele Bündchen—couldn’t help but flaunt his NFL knowledge.
“The Seattle defense, they’re like, all time,” Tom noted, but said of his former team, “In New England, what a story.”
As he put it, “They led the league with an 8.9 yards per attempt. I’ve always said it’s one of the most efficient ways to identify the league’s offensive scheme.”
As the analyst continued to spew out his sports knowledge, Kendall hilariously nodded along, indicating she had no idea what he was talking about without overtly showing it.

“Understood, understood,” Kendall said sarcastically. “I feel like this is really, really helpful. I’m going to process this information, but I really appreciate the phone call. Thank you for answering.”
And once she hung up and Jimmy asked her if she actually followed what Tom had said, she deadpanned, “No.”
However, if Kendall’s Super Bowl 2026 commercial is any indication, the 30-year-old has good odds. In the Fanatics Sportsbook ad, Kendall joked that the infamous Kardashian Curse—the internet rumor that Kendall and her sisters bring bad luck and performance to their athlete boyfriends—is real, and she uses it to her advantage.
“While the world has been talking about it, I’ve been betting on it,” Kendall quipped in the promotion, which showed off her lavish lifestyle. “How else do you think I could afford all of this? Modeling?”
