Keeping Up with the Kardashians S12-15
This is a lesson on how to make money doing nothing. They’re famous for being famous and it’s big business –E! Entertainment pays them over $20 million a season… to be themselves.
Fans will get a kick from seeing how far the ladies have come since 2016… and not just in terms of their plastic surgeries. Kylie is a mom, Kendall’s model status is through the roof, Kim and Kanye have more kids, Khloe is divorced, Kourtney is a man-eater… and momager Kris is richer, riding her daughters’ tailcoats.
But they’re still awesome to watch because they’re tight-knit… bordering on impenetrable. That’s the only life lesson you can take away from the show. Because the rest is self-indulgence at its finest, writes Ray Richmond from thewrap.com: “Let’s just say there is so much cheese that mama bear Kris and her darling daughters Kim, Khloe, Kourtney, Kendall and Kylie should be renamed Brie, Cheddar, Feta, Gruyere, Asiago and Comte.”
Also, Kris shouting out loud “little pink balls” while shopping for Xmas decorations is still everything you didn’t know you needed in life.
