In the same clip, Kim called Khloe has 'favorite sister' (her other sisters are Kylie, Kendall and Kourtney) and added that she cut her hair short like Khloe's as a tribute.

The mother-of-four added 'every moment with you is a favorite.'

She also said she wanted Khloe's year to be 'drama free' as well as healthy and happy. The wife of Kanye West added there should be 'no more bull sh*t.' 

The Calabasas native was referring to the Tristan Thompson cheating scandal with Jordyn Woods which has clouded Khloe's 2019.

Kourtney was next as she wore a beige suit.

The 40-year-old called Khloe a 'soul mate' and said she was the Thelma to her Louise, the Suzanne to her Jane, the Ethel to her Lucy. Then she said Khloe could be Lucy.

Strangely, the POOSH founder said that she didn't remember Khloe before she turned 16 in what seemed to be a slight dig.
