What year did Keeping Up with the Kardashians begin?

Keeping Up with the Kardashians began in 2007!

The first series was 8 episodes long and introduced the world not only to Kim, Khloe, Kourtney Kardashian but also their brother Rob, their little sister Kylie and Kendall Jenner and their momager, Kris.

It was Kris’ idea to make the show as she knew there would be lots of ‘natural’ drama to keep viewers entertained.

She said at the time: “Everybody thinks that [my children] could create a bunch of drama in their lives, but it's something that I felt I didn't even have to think about. It would be natural."

You can say that again, Kris!
