Kardashians sign record-breaking $100 million deal to dominate your TV screens for 4 more years
If you haven't been keeping up with every move of Kim, Kris, Kourtney, Khloe, Kendall, and Kylie, there's still plenty of time to get acquainted with the Kardashian clan: Page Six reports that the alliterative tabloid-staple family has signed a record-breaking $100 million deal with E! to stay on the air for four more years.
The deal greenlights at least four more seasons of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, plus more installations of spin-offs like Kourtney and Khloe Take the Hamptons. And since this is the Kardashians we're talking about, it's of course highly likely that the deal will see them popping up on your TVs and smartphones even more frequently: There are already rumblings of a Kris Jenner YouTube channel.
Kris' husband Bruce, however, isn't part of this mammoth deal — he's set to leave Keeping Up With the Kardashians after its upcoming 10th season to focus on his upcoming E! show, which will reportedly chronicle his sex transition.
