The event raised money for REFORM Alliance, who according to their website, "transform probation and parole by changing laws, systems and culture to create real pathways to work and wellbeing." Prison reform is a cause Kim has often championed in the past, as she studies law.

The friendly back-and-forth follows the unfounded dating rumors between Kim and Tom at another Rubin event, his July 4 white party in the Hamptons, which seemed to be just that: rumors.

Per People, the American Horror Story star and the football player "barely even spoke at the party and barely even said hello."

The star-studded REFORM event hosted by Rubin, Meek Mill, and Jay-Z also saw A-listers Travis Scott, who shares two kids with Kylie Jenner, Jack Harlow, Kevin Hart, and Quavo.
