Kardashians ink megabucks renewal deal

The Kardashians are staying put at E! for at least another three years, Variety has confirmed - and they don't come cheap.

The network has extended the famous family's contract for all-things-Kardashian, including the flagship series Keeping Up With the Kardashians.

An insider says the renewal deal will take the show through 2020 and amounts to "below $US100 million ($A129 million)," though E! declined to comment.

When contacted by Variety, an E! spokesperson confirmed the network had extended their deal with the Kardashian-Jenners, but would not elaborate on any terms of the deal.

"We recently celebrated the milestone 10th anniversary of 'Keeping Up With the Kardashians' on E! We have aired 13 wildly successful seasons of the franchise as well as 11 spinoffs, and Season 14 is off to a strong start," an E! spokesperson told Variety.

"We are incredibly proud of our partnership with the Kardashians and they remain an important part of the E! family. We look forward to continuing our collaboration for years to come."

The new extension was first reported by TMZ, though the site reports the Kardashians re-signed through 2019 for a whopping $US150 million ($A193 million) - our source says that number is far off, and says the family has actually renewed through 2020.
