Kim Kardashian applauded Olivia Munn for her courage and resilience amid her breast cancer battle.
Kim, 45, shared a video of Olivia Munn, 44, rocking her brand Skims as she spoke about her cancer battle – as well as writing a touching post about the actress.
‘Every scar tells a story of courage, a testament to a battle fought and a victory won. It’s a mark of resilience, a symbol of strength worn like a second skin,’ Kim wrote in the caption.
‘This October Skims is proud to spotlight @Olivia Munn’s breast cancer journey to empower women to get tested,’ the Kardashians star added.

Kim added: ‘From October 23, 2024 to October 31, 2024, SKIMS will donate to Susan G. Komen 10% of the retail sales price for each bra sold in SKIMS sold and on SKIMS.COM, excluding bralettes. U.S. Only.’
In the video Kim shared, Olivia wore a black bra with a slip skirt as she spoke to the cameras: ‘Someone said this phrase to me and it meant a lot and it really touched me when it comes to breast cancer, they say welcome to the worst club with the best members.
Olivia continued: ‘My name is Olivia Munn and I’m a breast cancer survivor. When I look at the scars or how my breast look difference or how my clothes fit on me differently, just feel a lot of gratitude the way my body looks is just a representation of how hard I fought.’
In the Skims ad, Olivia showed off her mastectomy scar while going topless – posing with a scar visible on her left breast.
The campaign comes during Breast Cancer Awareness Month.
Olivia wore a variety of Skims looks in the ad, including the nipple bra, which features faux nipples.
Olivia shared snaps from the campaign to her own ad, writing: ‘KINTSUGI 金継ぎ. In the middle of this latest @SKIMS bra campaign shoot, I decided I was done being insecure about my mastectomy scars.
‘Every mark life has left behind on my body is proof of how hard I fought. I hope other women who have been self-conscious about their scars see these photos and feel all the love I’m sending.
‘It’s really meaningful to be part of an initiative that supports research and helps countless individuals impacted by breast cancer.

In an interview with Today, Olivia revealed that the campaign initially wasn’t supposed to be about her scars – until she chose to embrace them.
‘When Skims approached me to do this campaign, it was just to do their shapewear and their new leggings, and it wasn’t about my scar at all,’ she said.
But while shooting the campaign, Olivia struggled to conceal the scars once she changed into an outfit where they became more visible.
‘But were in the middle of the shoot and we changed into an outfit that could see more of my scars so the makeup artist was touching up my scars and then we got to the double mastectomy scars and they were just really hard to cover up,’ she said.

‘Then I was looking in the mirror, and I just thought, “I’m done being insecure about my scars,”‘ she recalled. ‘So I went to the team of Skims and I said, “What do you guys think about showing my scars in this campaign?”
‘And they were so amazing and thoughtful and wonderful. And we talked it out and then we decided to do it.’
Olivia and her husband John Mulaney recently became parents of two – the couple welcomed their second child together, a daughter Méi June Mulaney who was born via surrogate last month.
The couple also share two-year-old son Malcolm together.
Olivia has undergone five surgeries since being diagnosed with luminal B breast cancer in both breasts last year – including the full hysterectomy and full double mastectomy.
‘You fought so hard for this second baby too… and you’ve had this major surgery where you took out your ovaries, your uterus, had an egg retrieval. And that is it’s own journey,’ Today correspondent Savannah Guthrie noted.
Olivia went on to describe how ‘scary’ it was receiving the breast cancer diagnosis while also actively trying to expand her family with John.
‘We were planning on trying to have another baby. So at that point, I said, “I need to freeze more eggs.” I’d already frozen eggs in my 30s but I just didn’t know if they were any good because I didn’t turn them into embryos.
‘So, I said to John, I need to freeze more eggs or get more eggs out. And that’s going to put me at risk because I’m going to put more hormones in my body and that’s what feeds my cancer.
‘I need you to be supportive of this and you know it’s scary but he said, “Of course. Whatever you want to do I’ll support you.” So we went down the journey of getting more eggs and I really wanted a little girl.

‘I really felt that I needed two embryos and two female embryos. And our doctor said “I’m going to get one more for you, it’s too much of a risk. And we’ll do one retrieval and try and get one girl and call it quits after that.” And then I remember saying to John, when we got to a place where our embryos were getting tested, we had two embryos getting tested.
‘I said, “Ah man, our odds of getting at least one to be a girl and healthy is really slim.” I said, “I need you to support me, because I want to go back and do it again if we don’t get two. I really want two.” And he said, “Whatever you want to do, I support you.” We got home that day and we got a call from my fertility doctor, Dr. Wong, and he said “We got the results back and it’s the dream.” Said it’s two healthy baby girl embryos.
‘And John and I just burst into tears and we just couldn’t believe how lucky we’ve been after a series of a lot of unlucky moments in our life recently. One of those embryos is little baby Mae. She wouldn’t be here if we didn’t go through all that.’
