Kendall Jenner Trolls Exes, Pokes Fun at Kardashian Curse in Super Bowl Ad

Fanatics Sportsbook's Super Bowl ad features Kendall Jenner joking about the 'Kardashian Curse' and invites fans to bet on her picks using their app.

  • On February 8, 2026, Kendall Jenner headlines a 30-second Fanatics Sportsbook Super Bowl ad during NBC's halftime, promoting the 'Bet on Kendall' campaign.
  • Fanatics expanded into betting in 2021 and uses Jenner to reach new bettors amid a U.S. wagering market where DraftKings and FanDuel control about 80%, with projections at $39 billion by 2030.
  • Inside the spot, Jenner performs several tongue-in-cheek gags, riffing on the so-called Kardashian 'curse' with a wilting rose, NBA jerseys, burned portraits, a private jet, vintage convertible and pool.
  • Fanatics will follow the TV spot with a 90-second ad and social edits, while Michael D. Ratner says the work aims to disrupt big-stage marketing and may feature more celebrities.
  • Fanatics frames the ad as part of a challenger strategy, aiming to bring something different to market and extending its presence to the Olympics and FIFA World Cup, Selena Kalvaria says.
