Albert Michael/startraksphoto.comHow much more Kardashians can the world handle? Well, at least an extra half hour's worth a week!
E! announced today that everyone's favorite newlywed power couple, Lamar and Khloé Kardashian Odom, have spun off from the rest of the Kardashian clan and will soon begin filming their own reality show, Khloé & Lamar.
And you better believe Khloé has something to say about this development...
"Lamar and I are so blessed to have been given such an amazing opportunity to take this journey together as a couple," she told E! News exclusively. "I know that it will only strengthen the bond we have and the love we share for each other and we're so excited to share our lives with our fans."
The show, which will begin filming in early 2011, will focus on both the professional and not-so-private lives of the couple, who recently celebrated their one-year anniversary. In addition to the machinations of Khloé and Lamar, the series will also feature the couple's semipermanent houseguest and fellow Kardashian Robert, who himself is embarking on a career in the music industry.
But that could be nothing compared to the inevitable drama (and hilarity) that will take place when Khloé tends to the day-to-day obligations that keep her fabulous, when Lamar hits the road with the Lakers or when the duo (gulp) start talking babies.
Sure, we're a bit biased, but if that's not must-see TV, we're not sure what is. As always, the eight-episode season will be produced by Ryan Seacrest. You're welcome, world.
