“I think I’d be the only one in the world not watching it,” Cheban told Us at the Food Bank for New York City Can Do Awards Dinner at Cipriani Wall Street on Tuesday, April 21. “So of course I’m going to watch it! I’m anticipating it myself.”

The Keeping Up With the Kardashians frequent guest star said he has no idea what to expect from the interview. “I think Diane Sawyer has been keeping that under wraps from all of us,” he noted with a laugh. “But I am looking forward to watching it and finding out.”

As for the Calabasas, Calif. native’s plans while he’s in NYC? “Kim is in town,” Cheban told Us. “I’m going to see her tomorrow. I don’t know if North is with her or not.” (Indeed, Kardashian and her husband Kanye West hit the Time 100 Gala red carpet on Tuesday night, where they were photobombed hilariously by Amy Schumer.)

Cheban said it’s not his place to discuss how Kardashian and West feel about Jenner’s sit-down with Sawyer. “You would have to ask them,” he told reporters. “I can’t speak for them.”

ABC News has remained tight-lipped about the content of Jenner’s buzzed-about interview with Sawyer. The most recent promo from the former Olympian’s sit-down features him discussing his world-famous family.

“Those are the only ones I’m concerned with,” Jenner said of his kids. “I can’t let myself hurt them.” (Jenner is the biological father of six children; Brandon, Brody, Burt, Casey, Kendall, and Kylie Jenner, and stepdad to Kourtney, Kim, Khloe, and Rob Kardashian.)

“My whole life has been getting me ready for this,” Jenner told Sawyer. As previously reported by Us Weekly, Jenner is expected to discuss his transition from male to female during the chat.
