The easy answer is that they sell every moment of their lives, but we do have the precise breakdown of where exactly all of those pesos are coming from…
In an interview with Hollywood Reporter, the Kardashians gave up all of their trade secrets. Here’s a taste of how they make their millions:
Kris commands anywhere from $100,000 to $250,000 for an appearance by Kim Kardashian at an event or party, and up to a million dollars for international bashes.
Rumor has it that Kim has a seven figure deal with a Vegas club for a set number of appearances throughout the year.
Kim gets a minimum of $25,000 to tweet about products.
The Kardashians get paid for every cover of People, US Weekly, OK! and any other weekly they appear on. Miraculous post-baby weight loss? New boyfriend? Wedding? Selling each of those “exclusives” adds up to major dinero.
Certain paparrazzi agencies have agreements with the family to stage photos, so that they can split the profits with the famiily once they are sold. Kourtney and Scott recently raked in $7,500 for photos of them laying poolside.
Kim has seven figure endorsement deals with Sketchers, Sears, Bebe, jewelry lines and Quick Trim diet pills, and Kim, Khloe and Lamar all have their own fragrances.
And then there’s “Keeping Up with the Kardashians” and all of the spinoff shows. Sick yet? Well, Mama Kris hopes they make it to a “season 26” but fears “overexposure.”
