In a video shared on Instagram, DeGeneres ambushed the Kardashian family matriarch by hiding behind a wall, then suddenly jumping out as Jenner walked into the room. The surprise earned DeGeneres a string of colorful responses and reminded fans that some celebrity friendships never change.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">According to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/people.com\/ellen-degeneres-scares-kris-jenner-in-funny-prank-video-what-the-f-is-wrong-with-you-11992945\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:People;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;People&quot;}\" class=\"link \"><em>People<\/em><\/a>, the clip begins with DeGeneres lying in wait before startling Jenner as she passed by. Caught completely off guard, Jenner screamed before firing back, \u201cWhat the f*ck is wrong with you?!\u201d Still recovering from the scare moments later, she repeated her disbelief and jokingly referred to DeGeneres as a \u201cf*cking a**hole\u201d while the comedian laughed at the successful prank. By the end of the video, Jenner admitted the stunt had left her rattled, saying she had \u201cshivers\u201d throughout her body.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.complex.com\/shop?utm_source=yahoo&amp;utm_medium=syndication&amp;utm_campaign=shop2025\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere.

Long before leaving daytime television, the comedian built a reputation for elaborate celebrity pranks that became recurring fan-favorite segments on <em>The Ellen DeGeneres Show<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Jenner has arguably been one of her most reliable targets over the years. In the Instagram caption accompanying the latest prank, Jenner appeared to embrace the joke, writing that DeGeneres was \u201cstill at her shenanigans\u201d and adding that \u201cit never gets old.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Their long-running prank history includes everything from backstage scares and dark hallway surprises to DeGeneres sneaking into Jenner\u2019s bedroom for a televised gag.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The pair have also collaborated on several hidden-camera segments, including a memorable trip to a discount store where Jenner was instructed to say increasingly outrageous things to unsuspecting shoppers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Other celebrities have been caught in DeGeneres\u2019 prank universe as well. Early viral moments included a notorious scare involving Taylor Swift, while stars such as Justin Bieber, Halle Berry, Selena Gomez, Adele, and Steve Harvey have all been pulled into her practical-joke orbit at one point or another.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"mb-4 text-lg font-bold\">Related News<\/h3>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"ct:story;elm:img;itc:0;\" class=\"stretched-box\" href=\"https:\/\/www.complex.com\/pop-culture\/a\/bernadette-giacomazzo\/kim-kardashian-kris-jenner-sex-tape-denial\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"relative\"><\/div>\n<p><\/a><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p><span>Kim Kardashian And Kris Jenner Deny Sex Tape Plot Under Oath<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"ct:story;elm:img;itc:0;\" class=\"stretched-box\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/celebrity\/articles\/kris-jenner-shuts-down-corey-165254725.html\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Kris Jenner Shuts Down Corey Gamble Breakup Rumors With Boo'ed Up Joint Appearance\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/pDMwcpdK9XTB9YGyi_FcxA--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/complex_131\/d3764f903f008b1e3969fcc5815dc38b\"\/><\/div>\n<p><\/a><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p><span>Kris Jenner Shuts Down Corey Gamble Breakup Rumors With Boo&#8217;ed Up Joint Appearance<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"ct:story;elm:img;itc:0;\" class=\"stretched-box\" href=\"https:\/\/www.complex.com\/pop-culture\/a\/bernadette-giacomazzo\/kris-jenner-ray-j-kim-kardashian-drama\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" target=\"_blank\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"Kris Jenner Claims Ray J Has Been 'Publicly Terrorizing' Kim Kardashian for 20 Years\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/wR5EiORn_efRK_vDhdsUxw--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/complex_131\/3997fa68e58adf18a1d43effc63f7b86\"\/><\/div>\n<p><\/a><figcaption class=\"relative text-sm mt-1 pr-2.5\">\n<p><span>Kris Jenner Claims Ray J Has \u2018Publicly Terrorized\u2019 Kim Kardashian for 20 Years<\/span><\/p>\n<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"mb-4 text-xl font-bold md:text-2xl\"><b>Related News<\/b><\/h2>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><b><i><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/celebrity\/articles\/cara-delevingne-had-seizure-burning-222023975.html\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Cara Delevingne Says She Had a Seizure at Burning Man Right Before Viral 2022 Airport Photos;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Cara Delevingne Says She Had a Seizure at Burning Man Right Before Viral 2022 Airport Photos&quot;}\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">Cara Delevingne Says She Had a Seizure at Burning Man Right Before Viral 2022 Airport Photos<\/a><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><b><i><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.yahoo.com\/entertainment\/celebrity\/articles\/hugh-jackman-admits-having-internal-170502478.html\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:Hugh Jackman Admits to Having Internal 'Rage' That 'Rarely' Comes Out;itc:0;sec:content-canvas;outcm:mb_qualified_link;_E:mb_qualified_link;ct:story;\" data-yga=\"{&quot;yLinkElement&quot;:&quot;context_link&quot;,&quot;yModuleName&quot;:&quot;content-canvas&quot;,&quot;yLinkText&quot;:&quot;Hugh Jackman Admits to Having Internal 'Rage' That 'Rarely' Comes Out&quot;}\" class=\"link  yahoo-link\">Hugh Jackman Admits to Having Internal &#8216;Rage&#8217; That &#8216;Rarely&#8217; Comes Out<\/a><\/i><\/b><\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.complex.com\/shop?utm_source=yahoo&amp;utm_medium=syndication&amp;utm_campaign=shop2025\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"elm:link;elmt:article_link;slk:COMPLEX SHOP: Shop the brands you love, anytime and anywhere.
