Cape Town - In the past decade momager extraordinaire Kris Jenner has catapulted her family to super stardom – and made some serious money doing it.
According ET Online Kris (62) recently helped broker a $150 million (R2.1 billion) deal to produce five more seasons of the popular reality show.
In a recent interview on The Ellen DeGeneres show, Kris revealed how she splits the eye-watering sum among the stars of the show – aka her many children and growing brood of grandkids.
Ellen asked executive producer Kris if she is the one who decides how the money should be split between her daughters and their various beaus.
“It’s kind of a group decision,” Kris replied.
“And I’m lucky if I even get paid, by the time the girls get finished with me,” she joked.
“Everybody gets paid pretty much equally because we all film a lot and we all work hard. And we’ve created this show and this brand for the last decade so everybody’s happy. They’re really happy.”
She added that all of her girls have other businesses outside of the reality show which makes them even more money.
“Because the show is in over 167 countries around the world and it really is a great foundation for all the other things we do, so one helps the other,” she said.
“When our deal came up and they said, ‘do you want to do it again?’ And we all took a vote and we all agreed that we’d really would miss it if we weren’t doing it,” she confirmed.
Ellen did not shy away from trying to get the mom-of-six to confirm that her three of her daughters are expecting – or to admit the rumours are just a clever ploy to drum up intrigue for the show.
Kris answered demurely, “Well, you know I get 10%.”
