The reality TV mogul is set to add another feather to her cap with her upcoming role in Ryan Murphy’s All’s Fair. Given that the show, which is still in development, has already generated significant buzz, Kim Kardashian has given a sneak peek to fans as she revealed her role.
In a recent appearance on The Tonight Show starring Jimmy Fallon, she opened up about her character, giving an example of how her character is similar to an influential attorney in the real-world.
The lady in question is none other than Laura Wasser, a powerhouse attorney who has handled some of Hollywood’s most high-profile divorces, including those of Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie.

During her time on the show, Fallon asked her about her acting gig, which was when she got candid about her role, stating that her law firm in the show would be a woman-run establishment.
She continued,
I’m an attorney, and then I’m playing one on TV. It’s really cool. I’m like — I’m like your Laura Wasser, if you’ve had to deal with her.
Giving her a shoutout, she explained to the host about the attorney’s status, who couldn’t get the reference, initially.
That’s good. That means you haven’t been through a divorce.
Known as the “disso queen” for her expertise in handling divorce cases, Wasser is well known for handling some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry. She handled the former’s case during her divorce chapter with Kris Humphries, to whom she was married for 72 days.

Synonymous name with high-stakes celebrity divorces in Hollywood, Wasser has represented some of the A-listers in the entertainment world, navigating celebrity breakups proficiently.
Wasser is the daughter of prominent Hollywood divorce attorney Dennis Wasser (who has represented the likes of Steven Spielberg, and Clint Eastwood). The father-daughter duo works together at their law firm Wasser, Cooperman & Mandles.
Among her most notable clients are Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie, both of whom found themselves involved in some of the most publicized divorces in recent history.
Jolie’s divorce from Brad Pitt, often referred to as Brangelina, involved not just calling off their marriage but also handling the complex custody of their six children. Although they split up in the middle of the case, she was the one who represented her during her divorce from Billy Bob Thornton in 2003.
Depp’s divorce from his ex-wife, Amber Heard was another complex case, which was strategically handled, given the intense public and media attention that arrived with the case.
