Kardashian Family Inks $150 Million Deal to Extend 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' on E! Network
The Kardashian-Jenner clan just re-signed with E! News to extend "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" for five more seasons.
TMZ reports the famed family has inked a new TV deal with the network, taking the reality program into 2019. The KarJenners will rake in $30 million per season, which means the most famous clan on reality TV will have a whopping $150 million for their new contract. This is a huge increase from their contract in 2015, in which they received $20 million each season for five installments — bagging $100 million in total.
"We recently celebrated the milestone 10th anniversary of 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' on E!. We have aired 13 wildly successful seasons of the franchise as well as 11 spin-offs, and season 14 is off to a strong start," said an E! spokesperson said in a press release. "We are incredibly proud of our partnership with the Kardashians and they remain an important part of the E! family. We look forward to continuing our collaboration for years to come."

"Not every episode is juicy to us; it's only juicy to the audience," the soon-to-be mom wrote in her essay for Glamour last month. The reality star admitted that her stepfather Caitlyn Jenner's transition in 2015 and sister Kim Kardashian-West's traumatic Paris heist in 2016 are two huge moments she wished had not been showed on the series.
