Kris Jenner, star of Keeping Up With the Kardashians on E!, admitted on Sunday to friend Jonathan Cheban and her daughter Kim Kardashian that she loves the song "All That Jazz" and has been taking singing and dancing lessons in hopes of starring on Broadway in Chicago. Check out the clip below!

Reality star Kris Jenner has appeared on TV in Keeping Up with the Kardashians, Kourtney and Khloe Take Miami, Khloe & Lamar, Kourtney and Kim Take New York, Good Morning America, The Talk, America's Next Top Model and Kris.

With a legendary book by Fred Ebb and Bob Fosse, music by John Kander and lyrics by Fred Ebb, CHICAGO is now the No. 1 longest-running American musical in Broadway history. Produced by Barry and Fran Weissler, CHICAGO is the winner of six 1997 Tony Awards including Best Musical Revival and the Grammy Award for Best Musical Cast Recording.

Directed by Tony Award winner Walter Bobbie and choreographed by Tony Award winner Ann Reinking, CHICAGO features set design by John Lee Beatty, costume design by Tony Award winner William Ivey Long, lighting design by Tony Award winner Ken Billington and sound design by Scott Lehrer. The current stars of the show are Bianca Marroquin as Roxie Hart, Amra-Faye Wright as Velma Kelly, and Brent Barrett as Billy Flynn.

Set amidst the razzle-dazzle decadence of the 1920s, Chicago is the story of Roxie Hart, a housewife and nightclub dancer who murders her on-the-side lover after he threatens to walk out on her. Desperate to avoid conviction, she dupes the public, the media and her rival cellmate, Velma Kelly, by hiring Chicago's slickest criminal lawyer to transform her malicious crime into a barrage of sensational headlines, the likes of which might just as easily be ripped from today's tabloids.
