Kendall Jenner has once again shown she’s got a sense of humor about her love life.
The supermodel made her Super Bowl commercial debut in a cheeky ad for Fanatics Sportsbook, taking playful digs at her so-called “cursed” track record with NBA boyfriends.
Rocking a stunning black swimsuit, Jenner strutted through the ad with confidence, proving that self-awareness and style can go hand in hand.
Sipping Tea and Delivering Deadpan Jabs
The commercial opens on a sunlit balcony, where Jenner sits calmly, sipping tea with her signature poise.
Addressing the camera directly, she deadpans, “Haven’t you heard? The internet says I’m cursed,” as a rose in her teacup dramatically wilts before the camera.
From there, Jenner leans into her dating mythology, joking, “Any basketball player who dates me kind of hits a rough patch,” before tossing a match into a basket overflowing with NBA jerseys.
The ad cleverly uses humor to nod to her high-profile relationships.
A Mansion of Memories and Minimalist Swimwear
As the ad progresses, Jenner strolls through a lavish mansion adorned with portraits of herself alongside former NBA flames—with their faces conspicuously ripped out.
She teases, “While the world has been talking about it, I’ve been betting on it.”
One of the most eye-catching moments comes poolside, where Jenner slips into the water wearing a minimalist high-cut black swimsuit, highlighting her long legs and toned figure.
She quips, “This pool? Basketball boyfriend one missed the playoffs… I guess nobody was getting a ring in this house.”
Luxury Lifestyle, Courtesy of Exes
Jenner takes viewers on a tongue-in-cheek tour of luxury, from cruising in a sports car to boarding a private jet, each indulgence humorously credited to a different ex’s misfortune.
“Boyfriend number two flopped right out of the league,” she says coolly, before adding from the plane, “This cute jet? Thanks, boyfriend three!”
Seated on the plane, Jenner pivots to football, encouraging viewers to “bet on something new… football players,” as the flight attendant announces their destination: San Francisco for the Super Bowl between the Seattle Seahawks and New England Patriots.
Raising a glass of champagne, she delivers the ad’s final punchline: “The Kardashian curse—it’s not even my last name.”
From NBA Flings to Pop Culture Moments
Kendall Jenner’s dating history reads like a highlight reel of NBA stars: Devin Booker, Blake Griffin, Ben Simmons, Jordan Clarkson, Kyle Kuzma, D’Angelo Russell, and Chandler Parsons have all been linked to the model.
She also dated Booker on and off from 2020 to 2022, while her relationship with Simmons lasted nearly a year.
Most recently, Jenner has been romantically linked to Bad Bunny, who is set to headline the Super Bowl halftime show—tying real-life romance to the commercial’s football theme.
Family Inside Jokes and Kardashian Kurse
The ad also nods to a long-running family joke.
During season three of the Kardashians’ Hulu show, sister Kim roasted Jenner in a T-shirt reading “Kendall Starting Five,” featuring photos of several NBA players she’d dated.
Fanatics CMO Selena Kalvaria praised the campaign, saying it cleverly transformed the “Kardashian Kurse” into something playful, timely, and culturally resonant.
Jenner Opens Up About Dating, Identity, and Her “Me Era”
Beyond the laughs, Jenner has been candid about her love life.
She recently addressed speculation about her sexuality, noting that the internet can be unkind and insisting she doesn’t identify as gay—but wouldn’t hide it if she did.
Reflecting on her twenties, Jenner described a “me era” at 29, a period dedicated to herself after years of high-profile romances.
“I never really had my 20s to myself,” she said. “I was in a lot of relationships, and turning 29 was a wake-up call to focus on me.”
Despite past heartbreaks, Jenner insists she’s “definitely a lover” and remains hopeful about finding the right partner.
She aims for a future filled with love, understanding, and the chance to build a beautiful family.

While some relationships were brief or casual, others left lasting impressions.
She’s maintained a level of privacy around her love life, noting in interviews that keeping relationships out of the spotlight has always felt sacred and necessary.
A Confident, Playful Take on Love and Luck
