Kris Jenner will stop at nothing to keep her famous Keeping up with the Kardashians family on-air!
RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned that the 63-year-old momager is in “tight negotiations” with E! network to renew their current contracts past the current season, which is the 16th season of the clan’s hit TV show.
As fans know, Kris negotiated a massive $150 million deal in 2017 that would ensure that KUWTK remain on for five more seasons. Well, those contracts expire at the end of this current season and an insider told RadarOnline.com that she is trying to broker a “mega-million” dollar deal!
“Kris is trying to broker a deal that will keep their show on until the end of season 21,” the source said.
“She wants complete wraparound control over the entire production and she thinks that she will get it, given the show is still a success.”
And according to TV by the numbers, the ratings are up from last season. Season 16’s premiere episode of KUWTK was seen by 1.3 million viewers — a great spike in numbers from the end of season 15, which was seen by less than 900,000 viewers!

“The family is going to continue staying relevant and, if Kris has her way, they will be on TV for generations to come.”
