Kim Kardashian knows her influence — and how to use it.
The reality star, 44, revealed her “superpower” during The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon’s cold open skit on Wednesday, Sept. 24. The scene began in Kardashian’s dressing room, where host Jimmy Fallon popped in to let her know she’d be called to the stage soon.
“I’ll see you out there,” he said. “It should be another six, seven minutes.”
“Hmm, six seven,” Kardashian quipped, referring to a TikTok meme stemming from the song “Doot Doot (6 7)” by Skrilla, which features the recurring lyric, “six seven.”
When Fallon teased, “I don’t think kids are saying that anymore,” Kardashian took matters into her own hands.
“I know, it was totally over, but I just brought it back,” she declared. “That’s kind of one of my superpowers. I’m Kim Kardashian, and I can just bring anything back anytime I want.”
“Seriously?” Fallon asked, to which the SKIMS founder replied: “No cap! That’s back now too.”
“You know what else is back?” she continued before doing the “dab” dance move that became popular in 2015.
“No way,” the comedian said. “There’s no way that’s coming back. What? That happened so fast.”
“I’m not done,” Kardashian continued, proceeding to mention a series of viral phrases. “Wazzup! Don’t taze me, bro. NikeSKIMS. Groovy baby, yeah!”
Fallon joked that he didn’t know “Austin Powers impressions are back,” but the mogul said, “In my world, they never went away.”
As he exited the room, the host repeated old trends and “dabbed” through the hallways.
“Oh, behave,” Kardashian said directly into the cameras, quoting another iconic Austin Powers line.
Kardashian, who stopped by Fallon while in New York City to celebrate the launch of NikeSKIMS, is no stranger to the latest trends thanks to her young kids. In recent years, she has documented learning new slang and TikTok dances on her social media.
In October 2024, her daughter North West, 14, even gifted her a necklace with a viral phrase on it. At the time, the mom of four took to her Instagram Stories to share a video of the estimated $20,000 tennis chain that featured a gold name plate engraved with “Skibidi Toilet.” The term comes from the graphic web series.

Several of Kardashian’s followers commented on the piercing, with one user writing, “Not the belly piercing 😂 Kimmy taking it back to 2005.”
“the belly piercing 😭😭😭. ok baddie 🔥,” another wrote.
