“WHY are you starstruck with these people?” one TikTok user commented. “If you only understood the whole truth.”
“What is the big deal about her???” another asked.
The Kardashians and Jenners at Disneyland Resort
The Kardashian family is no stranger to Disneyland Resort, frequently appearing at Disneyland Park and Disney California Adventure Park. Their visits have garnered significant media attention, often revolving around their use of VIP Tour Guides, which allow them to skip the usual waiting times for attractions.

Guests have reported mixed feelings about the family’s escapades. While some welcome the chance to see celebrities in a more personal setting, others criticize the resulting chaos that often ensues. The Kardashians’ history of private ride shutdowns and personal crowds complicates the park’s usual ambiance, leading to concerns about the overall guest experience at Disneyland Resort.
Controversial Ride Shutdowns and Guest Reactions
A notable source of contention has been the Kardashian family’s tendency to shut down rides for their exclusive use, particularly the Mad Tea Party ride. In 2022, Kim Kardashian and her children were seen riding surrounded by empty teacups while other guests were left waiting outside in the sweltering sun.

Social media chatter exploded after these incidents, leading to severe outrage from those who felt disrespected and disregarded by the Southern California Disney park’s management, who typically allow such celebrity privileges. The broader conversation centers around whether it is appropriate for celebrities to exert their influence in a space intended for family enjoyment and leisure.
Safety Concerns During Celebrity Sightings
The celebrity phenomenon at Disneyland Resort has heightened safety concerns among park visitors. Reports have emerged detailing dangerous stampedes during Kardashian sightings at the Disney parks. Some guests recounted frightening experiences where they felt their safety was compromised as crowds surged towards the celebrities, eager for a close encounter.

In one harrowing instance, social media described a chaotic scene where individuals pushed against her stroller, narrowly missing her children. They recounted a moment of sheer panic where they feared for their children’s safety amid the confusion caused by a swarm of spectators chasing after Kris Jenner and Kourtney Kardashian.
The Kardashians’ repeated visits to Disneyland Resort, including Kylie Jenner’s latest appearance, have cast a long shadow over the experiences of regular guests. With increasing incidents prompting discussions about safety and fairness in the park, it remains to be seen how Disneyland Resort’s management will respond to ongoing concerns about celebrity influence and guest experience. Such high-profile visits show no signs of slowing down, leaving many guests wondering about the balance between celebrity allure and the joy of an ordinary park visit.
