Keeping Up with the Kardashians
News

On a skank-filled evening of reality TV, here's a look at what went down on a trio of shows...

Rock of Love: We're treated to Kristy Joe Muller calling her second - and current - husband. Whom she may or may not have a restraining order against. She obliquely tells him that "a lot of stuff we went through has started surfacing." Because no one can comprehend Kristy Joe, he asks her what that is supposed to mean. -- Zap2It

Keeping Up with the Kardashians: We open up this week with the older sisters and mom gathered around, and Kim's got an announcement: she was the number one Google search last week! Hooray! -- TVgasm

That's Amore: While the other girls are at breakfast, Talor sneaks into Domenico Nesci's bed for some private cuddling. The girls get their pizza deliver and they are informed about yet another food-themed challenge, this one involving live chickens that Ashley McNeely is tending to. -- Buddy TV

And now, a few words from the KKK.

No, we aren't referred to the violent, repressive haters of Jews and African-Americans. We're talking about a group slightly less obnoxious than the Ku Klux Klan: Kim, Khloe and Kourtney Kardashian.

The three sisters recently spoke with OK! Magazine about the second season of their reality TV show, Keeping Up with the Kardashians. Here are excerpts from the interview:

Kim Kardashian:
Q: How are you dealing with the constant presence of cameras for your reality show?
It's kind of crazy, but it's fun and you totally forget that they're there. We kind of know what we're getting ourselves into. But at first we used to be kind of careful about what we said and we would try to keep everything [censored]. My sisters kind of get crazy, and we tried so hard not to be ourselves for the first few weeks. Then all of a sudden we just [got relaxed].

Q: What has changed for you since the show's debut?
It's changed a lot. It's so cool to see different people respond to different episodes and different episodes. I think that me and my sisters never would have gotten really great opportunities that come up because we have a show on the air. And I think that we're all just embracing all of it. We're all having a great time.

Khloe Kardashian:
Q: What are you hoping your reality show success will lead to?
I want to design. My sisters and I are starting designing clothes and stuff. But other than that, I really want to host. Everything to do with fashion, but still be in front of camera and hosting red carpets, and just doing stuff like that.

Kourtney Kardashian:
Q: You're launching your own fashion line, aren't you?
Yes. We're actually taking our first meeting about it today. And I think that when I woke up this morning and thought about our meeting, I just thought it was great. We buy everything for our store. We're the buyers. But we go and we see all the lines out there and I just can't wait to do something exciting.

The second season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians premieres tonight on E! We'll refrain from asking why anyone would care to watch the daily lives of this useless family, and instead just preview the episode:

In the second season opener, Kim Kardashian deals with the pressure of fame by adopting an attitude that does not sit well with the rest of the family. Meanwhile, Kourtney receives an unwelcome the surprise when she finds some scandalous text messages on her boyfriend's cell phone.

Overall, when asked at the premiere party about what's on tap for the upcoming season, Kim said:

"You'd be sur­prised. When the cameras are running, we might plan for certain things, but totally different stuff starts happening. So this time, we [didn't] plan anything."

E! has set a date for the return of the reality series that follows the everyday lives of the useless Kardashian family.

The second season of Keeping Up with the Kardashians will premiere on Sunday, March 9 at 10 p.m.

In a sad commentary on America, Keeping Up with the Kardashians regularly won its time slot among women 18-34 during its pilot season, which gave the network enough reason to renew the reality series for yet another run.

Fans can look forward to eight new episodes, kicking off with its premiere installment called "Kim Becomes a Diva." Are they claiming Kim Kardashian was not already a diva?!?

"The buzz surrounding the series is huge, and viewers have clearly fallen for the Kardashians," said Lisa Berger, E!'s executive vice president of programming and development.

Just imagine. Kim Kardashian, and her lovely extended family of nine other kids, living all together on TV. Is there any better formula for ratings success?

Besides releasing a sex tape of yourself and your ex-boyfriend?

In any case, that's the premise (the first part, not the sex tape) of an upcoming reality TV show that will focus on the life and times of Hollywood's infamous Kardashian clan.

Kim, seen here with sisters Kourtney and Klohe, is the former pal of The Simple Life star Paris Hilton. As such, she's never one to shy away from the spotlight.

Sources report that E! is in the running to produce a show about the Kardashians, parented by step-father Bruce Jenner (the father of reality show veteran Brody Jenner) and mother Kris Kardashian.

Both are former divorcees who merged into a mega-family (with kids ranging in age from 9 to 28) that wants to open up to cameras.

No doubt Spencer Pratt will find a way to weasel onto the show.

The network has no comment, but Brody, who starred on both The Princes of Malibu and The Hills, as well as in the love life of former Laguna Beach queen Kristin Cavallari, is surely pumped.

"It's the modern-day Brady Bunch," says an insider. "The show will reveal the crazy dynamics of all of them and their dramas."

So it's like The Real World: Kardashian. Or something.

Too bad the cameras weren't rolling when Kim found out her ex, Ray J, leaked a sex tape featuring the pair. Now that would've been some drama.
