Selma Blair finds Kris Jenner 'endearing'

Los Angeles: Selma Blair will be playing Kris Jenner in the upcoming FX's series "American Crime Story: The People vs OJ Simpson" and the actress finds the reality TV star intelligent and charming.

The 43-year-old "Cruel Intentions" star says even though she does not know much about the 59-year-old matriarch, she happens to adore her, reported Us magazine. "I happen to love Kris Jenner. I found her to be endearing and extremely intelligent and warm and generous. I don't have enough good things to say about her. I thought she was wonderful. I don't think I knew just how amazingly likeable she is and how giving," Blair said.

"American Crime Story: The People vs. O.J. Simpson" tells the story of the 1995 murder trial of the former NFL star, and the "Legally Blonde" actress. Blair said she closely followed the proceedings, which had a not guilty verdict handed down 20 years ago last weekend.

At that time, Jenner was married to Robert Kardashian, who represented Simpson in the trial as his defence attorney.
