Kim Kardashian's recent brain scan has sparked a wild Elon Musk conspiracy theory among fans.
In a recent episode of The Kardashians, Kim visited Dr. Daniel Amen, a controversial brain health specialist who uses SPECT scans to diagnose emotional and neurological conditions.
During the appointment, Dr. Amen pointed out 'low activity' in Kim's frontal lobe, though he was quick to clarify this wasn't connected to Alzheimer's disease or serious mental health problems.
Still, Kim didn't take the news lightly and replied: "That just can’t be… Not accepting. I got to get on a plan to really figure this out because I have sh*t to do this summer.”

Dr. Amen, who's scanned several Kardashian family members in previous seasons, tried to reassure her saying she didn't appear 'terribly stressed, not anxious and not depressed.'
However, he did point to what he called 'holes' on the scan where he suggested there was low activity.
"The front part of your brain is less active than it should be," he explained, suggesting this could make handling stress more difficult, especially while she studies for the California bar exam.
But one fan thinks there's a much bigger plan unfolding behind the scenes. A user named Emery posted her theory on X, suggesting the entire storyline could be setting up a future partnership with Elon Musk's brain chip company, Neuralink.
"Ok hear me out," Emery wrote on X. "Showing this, combined with failing the bar, is all part of a plan. The Kardashians are masters at this. My money is on her using this to set the stage for getting a NeuroLink, telling everyone how much better she is, and then immediately passing the bar to “prove” it works."
The theory quickly gained traction, with other viewers agreeing it sounds exactly like something the Kardashian family would orchestrate.
"You’re cooking with napalm on this one because this theory fits the Kardashian playbook so perfectly it’s almost suspicious," one X user commented.
Someone else agreed: "Wait till everyone realizes this is just a soft launch for her to launch a partnership with Neuralink (or another AI brain chip company like that)."
A third user added: "The moment aired in the newest episode of “The Kardashians” this week, where Kardashian undergoes imaging with Dr. Daniel Amen, the controversial brain-health specialist known for using SPECT scans to diagnose emotional and neurological issues."
Others questioned the science and accuracy of the scan.
"Neuroscientist here. You literally cannot have 'low brain activity' in your frontal lobe without being lobotomized," a fourth user claimed.
