    The Kardashians’ show has many viewers, but it doesn’t appeal to everybody.
  • KEEPING IT IN THE FAMILY
  • The Kardashians are currently one of the USA’s most well-known families. They are often in the news, and Americans follow their lives in the papers and celebrity magazines. 1) The Kardashians are reality TV starts, with their own family show called Keeping up with the Kardashians.
  • It all started in 2007 when the family was asked by an American channel to make a TV series about their lives. The show focused on mother Kris and her four children. 2) Their father was lawyer Robert Kardashian, who died a few years earlier. The show became a success in its first season, mainly because of the three sisters and their extrovert personalities.
  • Since then, there have been eight more seasons and the show is still running. 3) Two of the sisters got married on the show. Kim got married twice! And two of the sisters are now parents. Furthermore, the three sisters have used their fame to establish careers in the fashion industry. They have opened clothes shops and launched several clothing collections and perfumes. Kim has even launched a successful mobile phone game called Kim Kardashian: Hollywood.
  • Although the show has many fans, it also has many critics. 4) They are irritated by the sisters’ desire for fame and fortune, and think the show is meaningless. The Kardashians are only ‘famous for being famous’, but they don’t mind because it has made them rich.
