Hating For The Ratings! Kim & Khloe's Feud With Kourtney Faked

Kim Kardashian's flawless face isn't the only fake part of Keeping Up With the Kardashians' new season, as RadarOnline.com has exclusively learned that the reality TV queen's nasty fight with sisters Kourtney and Khloe is all for show ratings!

"Their fight this season is so overly dramatic, and they all know it," a Kardashian confidante told Radar.

"There is no doubt that the three of them aren't as close as they used to be, but they all knew they needed something big to start off the season."

Apparently, the twisted sisters' tactic worked, as show ratings are up, and KUWTK just nabbed the Teen Choice Award for best reality show!

It isn't all acting though, the source claimed.

"Kourtney doesn't want to be on the show anymore, and she doesn't like how Kim treats everyone. Khloe has been over the show for several seasons too," the source explained. "But, they exaggerated the nasty fighting."

"They are just all in it for the money. By now they are all good actresses, whether people want to believe it or not!"

And of course, momager Kris Jenner "is loving every minute of it," the source said.

As Radar previously reported, the first two episodes of KUWTK's new season covered Kim and Khloe's fight with Kourtney, and subsequent therapy session to air their grievances.

Kim trashed Kourtney's looks, while Kourtney claimed Kim was "selfish" for putting work over family.
