At the premiere ofFeud: Capote vs. The Swanson Tuesday, the actress, 32, reminisced about working with Kardashian onAmerican Horror Story: Delicate.She toldExtrathat the SKIMS founder, 43, was an impressive costar.
“She’s amazing, she’s a pro,” Roberts said. “She’s one of the most prepared people I’ve ever worked with and she’s just chill. I love her so much.”
Roberts also opened up about her favorite parts of working withAHScreatorRyan Murphy— whom she was at the premiere to support — telling the outlet he is “the best.”
“Ryan has an idea of everything down to the detail of your shoes, so I love working with him because he doesn’t do just one thing,” she explained. “He creates entire worlds and takes concepts on paper that sound like one thing and ‘Ryan Murphafies’ them.”
Roberts added that her favorite character she has played on the show isMadison Montgomery. Originally, Roberts was only supposed to take the role for seasons 3 and 4, but she also ended up resurrecting Madison in season 8.
“That was really fun and unexpected,” she said. “I was only supposed to do a few episodes and that evolved into something else.”

Throughout the five episodes, Roberts’ character becomes “hysterical” as her dreams turn into a nightmare.
At the time of the announcement of Kardashian joining the cast, Murphy gushed over the reality star’s upcoming role. “Kim is among the biggest and brightest television stars in the world and we are thrilled to welcome her to the AHS family,” Murphy, 57, shared in a statement toThe Hollywood Reporter.
When the show premiered in September,many criticssaw Kardashian as fitting for the part.
“You feel like Kim is channeling her mom-anager Kris Jenner in an homage,” wroteDeadlineeditorial director and box office editor Anthony D’Alessandro. “She’s perfect for the part.”
USA Todayentertainment reporter Patrick Ryan asserted that Kardashian “cleverly leans into that Valley girl persona” in this new role.
“Kardashian’s acting skills may be more People’s Choice than Emmy-worthy,” he wrote. “But likeAmerican Horror Storyalums Jessica Lange and Lady Gaga before her, she’s the only one so far to deliver on the season’s high-camp potential.”
