Kim Kardashian West turned out in a hot-pink bodysuit to deliver a sly, mostly funny Saturday Night monologue. She heaped praise and dished dirt on her latest divorced husband, referred to her sex tape, and calmly passed off a jaw-dropping O.J. Simpson joke.

She also took a dig at SNL , saying her appearance before 10 million or so viewers was a chill, intimate night for her because shes used to being fawned over by some 360 million fans.

Kardashian segued into O.J. Simpson as she plugged her real passion getting wrongly accused people out of jail. I think Im following in my fathers footsteps, she added. Her late father, attorney Robert Kardashian , helped acquit O.J. Simpson of murder charges in the stabbing deaths of Simpsons ex-wife Nicole Brown Simpson and her friend Ronald Goldman.

Its because of her dad that she met my first Black person, Kardashian noted. Wanna take a stab in the dark at who it was? she asked a startled audience. O.J. does leave a mark or several, or none at all; I still dont know.

As for Kanye West , hes the best rapper of all times ... the richest Black man in America, a talented, legit genius who gave me four incredible kids, she said. (The couple was seen together in Manhattan before the program.)

When I divorced him, you know it came down to one thing: his personality, she zinged.

Im surprised to see me here, too, Kardashian told the audience as she first stepped onstage. I havent had a movie premiere in a really long time, she quipped, referring to her leaked sex tape. Actually I only had that one movie come out, and no one told me it was even premiering. It must have slipped my moms mind.

She emphasized: Im a Kim, not a Karen, but given all the K names in the family, that might have been a possibility. Somehow her mom just knew Karen wouldnt be a good pick. I dont know how she saw that coming and not Caitlyn Jenner, she said.

Id love America to come together, which is why Im here to announce that Im running ... Im just kidding! she added.

Im not running for president. We cant have three failed politicians in one family, she said, referring to Kanye Wests doomed bid for the presidency, and Caitlyn Jenners failed race for California governor.
