#10: Keeping Up With the Kardashians

The Mediterranean-style mansion featured in Keeping Up With the Kardashians wasn’t Kris Jenner’s actual home—it served as a stand-in property, used for exterior shots until it sold in 2018. This detail highlights the show’s preference for image over authenticity.

Beyond the house, much of the show’s buzz-worthy drama—from explosive family arguments to surprise marriage proposals—was often carefully staged or exaggerated to boost ratings. While the Kardashians let cameras into their lives, the version shown on screen was frequently curated, scripted, and edited.
