“Kris knows at the end of the day she is going to get what she wants because they are the Kardashians and no one will come to take their place right now. The family is going to continue staying relevant and, if Kris has her way, they will be on TV for generations to come.”
The KarJenner clan possibly is more famous now than ever before, with ratings for the season 16 premiere on March 31 garnering views from 1.3 million viewers — a huge jump from the 851,000 who viewed the season 15 finale in December 2018.
The mogul last finalized a deal in October 2017 that renewed the hit reality show through the end of season 16 for $150 million, with Kim Kardashian West, Kourtney Kardashian, and Khloé Kardashian taking home the biggest bucks.
We suspect things would likely shift more cash into Kylie Jenner‘s bank account given her insane popularity and billionaire status , but only time will tell. After all, it’s very possible the 21-year-old quits the series!

Still, this isn’t the first we’ve heard rumors of a major contract going down. In the wake of the Tristan Thompson and Jordyn Woods cheating fiasco, a source spilled to Radar Online that the mother of six was “ecstatic” as it would bolster ratings:
“Kris has been trying to broker a new deal for $200 million with E! for the show and she is ecstatic over this cheating scandal. It is exactly what she’s been hoping for! Kris really has no feelings or attachment to this because she told Khloe that she should leave Tristan the first time that he cheated on her when she was giving birth to True. The fact that he did this to Khloe again is going to backfire on him because he just guaranteed that they will renew their contract. Ratings are going to be through the roof over this.”
She definitely wasn’t wrong given the massive spike in ratings this season!
