NEED TO KNOW
Kris Jenner wants to keep her family close even in the afterlife.
During the season 7 episode of The Kardashians that aired Thursday, Nov. 13, the matriarch, 70, said “it’s time” for the family to decide what they want to do when they all die, so she and daughter Khloé Kardashian, 41, go on a visit to a cemetery to look for burial plots.
On a FaceTime with her daughters ahead of the trip, Kris said she thinks that the family should “build a mausoleum” for themselves.
“Because I am this person who suffers from a tad of OCD and having things buttoned up and organized, I feel like it’s my responsibility as the head of the family to get everybody on the same bandwagon to figure it out so that if something does happen, that we’re prepared and nobody really has to panic,” Kris said in a confessional.
Kris added that she knows she’s going to heaven but feels it’s a “big deal” where her “Earthly body” ends up.
“I’m just trying to make it easier on you,” Kris told Khloé. “This [cemetery] is right next to Costco. You could go to Costco, do your shopping, pop in, say hi to me.”

Khloé, meanwhile, said she wants to be cremated. Kris said that she can’t be cremated because her youngest daughter, Kylie Jenner, 28, doesn’t want her to be.
“You have to take into consideration everybody’s feelings,” Kris said.
Kris said if they got a “big enough” plot, they could move Robert Kardashian Sr. into it. “I don’t know if that’s normal,” Khloé said.
In a confessional, Khloé talked about losing her dad to cancer at 19 with not a lot “buttoned up and taken care of.” She said she wants to get things organized so her kids True, 7, and Tatum, 3 — with ex Tristan Thompson — don’t have to deal with the same things when she dies.
Khloé later added that she wants to be cremated because, “Wouldn’t you rather have me in a little jar in your house, than buried in dirt?”
Kourtney Kardashian, 46, meanwhile, said she wants to be “buried.” Kim Kardashian, 45, said she doesn’t “really care” about whether she’s buried or cremated.
“If someone wants my ashes for something, sure,” she said.
Kendall Jenner, 30, didn’t answer her preference, because, “I don’t like talking about death. I really can’t do it.”
Kris said she’ll be having a martini in heaven “watching the show” after she dies.
“We’re never going to get this done because there’s so much arguing,” Khloé said in a confessional. “Even in the afterlife, we’re still going to be arguing. I can promise you this isn’t the end of us.”
New episodes of The Kardashians drop Thursdays at 12 a.m. ET on Hulu.
