Kris Jenner has a new pawn in her game — her daughter’s ex-boyfriend, Travis Scott. Although The Kardashians was renewed for a sixth season earlier this year, there are fears the Hulu show might not be on air for long. Networks are canceling shows left and right due to low ratings. However, Kris has a naughty trick up her sleeves to make sure her family’s reality show doesn’t suffer such a fate.
The famous momager is looking to recruit her daughter Kylie Jenner‘s ex to help boost ratings for their show. Kylie and the rapper share two children, Stormi and Aire. Scott has been in the news lately due to his numerous run-ins with the law. His name is on everyone’s lips, and Kris believes cashing in on the scandal will drive the show’s success. A source close to the situation told Life & Style Mag:
“With Travis making so many headlines, the obvious choice is to work it into the show. Kris justifies it by saying bringing him back into the fold will be helpful because he’s clearly struggling — but everyone knows she’s chasing ratings.”
An insider previously told the publication that Hulu executives are tired of paying exorbitant salaries to keep up the show. “Kris wants the show to go on forever, but the economic realities of the streaming world are creeping up on her,” the source explained. With the prospect of the show documenting the rapper’s troubles, fans are bound to tune in.
Kylie Jenner ‘Furious’ About Kris Jenner’s Decision
Although Kris thinks Scott’s troubles are TV gold, Kylie is reportedly unhappy about the decision. “Kylie’s furious her mom is pushing this — especially when she’s pressuring her to get Timothée on the show,” the source explained. However, the momager has no worries.
“Kris doesn’t seem to care it will stress out Kylie or cause drama in her relationship with Timothée.”
