Why Millions Can’t Stop Watching Yuri Lamasbella’s Kardashian Parodies

TikTok sensation Yuri Lamasbella has carved out a unique lane in internet comedy, seamlessly blending pop-culture satire with everyday mom life. Known for her uncanny ability to impersonate the Kardashian sisters, the 32-year-old creator has built an audience of more than 7 million followers across TikTok, Instagram, and YouTube, a testament to her sharp comedic timing and genuine affection for the characters she portrays.

It all began in March 2021, at the height of the pandemic, when Yuri, who was four months pregnant with her first child, uploaded her first skit, “How Every Kardashian Episode Starts.” In it, Kourtney tries to tell Kim about a family trip while Kim, barely listening, scrolls through her phone. The clip struck a chord, racking up over 18 million views overnight.

Before going viral, Yuri had spent years working in HR before burnout led her to pursue content creation full-time. She already had a modest following as a beauty blogger, but after her Kardashian impressions took off, her TikTok shot from 400,000 to over a million followers in just one month.

Today, as a mother of two (and one on the way), Yuri’s content has evolved. While she still drops the occasional Kardashian moment, her focus has shifted to hilarious, deeply relatable mom humor, capturing the chaos and comedy of parenthood with the same wit that first made her famous.

Some of Yuri’s Best Videos

How Every Kardashian Episode Starts: The video that started it all. Kourtney tells Kim about her summer plans with Scott, while Kim, barely looking up from her phone, just says “yeah.” Classic.

How Cierra Left the Villa: A parody of Love Island’s Cierra Ortega and Nic Vansteenberghe breakup, complete with dramatic tears and emotional manipulation… except Nic just doesn’t care.

Maturity Level Leaving My Body When Arguing with My Toddler: Yuri at her comedic best, trading sass with her young son: “Not invited to your birthday party? Okay, good luck having one.” “Crazy hair? You don’t even know how to wipe your own butt.” Every parent felt seen.

Kardashians Celebrate Kendall’s Pony: Kourtney congratulates Kendall on her “baby pony”… “He has your legs”… and offers a “veggie, sugar-free, gluten-free, fun-free cake.” The awkward silence that follows? Perfection.

Mexican Mom with Their Grandkids: A fan favorite. Yuri plays both herself and her mom debating parenting styles: “He’s crying.” “I know, I’m letting him self-soothe.” “Pobrecito, déjame agarrarlo.” “No, Mom, I’m trying to teach him independence.” “I never did that with you.” “Pretty sure I got hit by a car once and you told me to walk it off.” The Latina mom accuracy is unmatched.

The Real Mom Life Ad (Fruit Syrup): A refreshingly honest parenting moment: burnt dinner, forgotten backpacks, and laundry disasters. But hey, at least the snack game is strong. “It’s the only thing I’m getting right these days.”

When You Have the Academy Museum Gala at 7, but Your Kid Needs Bananas at 6: A spot-on parody of Kim Kardashian’s full-face nude mask look. Yuri wears her own version while pushing a stroller through the grocery store. High fashion meets motherhood chaos.
