Olivia Wilde‘s drama made a surprise cameo on American Horror Story: Delicate.
The hit series launched its new season earlier this month, introducing some new faces such as Kim Kardashian to the franchise.
In the show, Kim plays a publicist named Siobhan Corbyn who is working with Emma Roberts‘ character Anna. During the Wednesday night episode (September 27), Siobhan made what appeared to be a reference to the media storm surrounding Oliva in the leadup to her movie Don’t Worry Darling.

While providing advice to Anna, Siobhan said that they were “going to pull a Wilde card.”
“As in Olivia Wilde,” Kim‘s character clarified.
What exactly does that entail? “Don’t mention what happened and wait until everyone forgets slash low-key gaslight the people that do ask and make them think that they’re the problem. Because, you know, sexism.”
While it wasn’t implicitly stated, it appears that Kim was referencing the Don’t Worry Darling press tour, which was offset by rumors about drama between Olivia and Florence Pugh.
Olivia has previously alluded to the reports about infighting overshadowing the movie’s release. For what it’s worth, Chris Pine has also addressed all of the rumors about the experience on set.
At the time of publishing, Olivia does not appear to have publicly reacted to her Delicate reference.
This isn’t the first pop culture scandal that’s been brought up in the new season of AHS. Just last week, the series also referenced Tom Sandoval.
