Kylie Jenner Is Launching A Snapchat Show
She’s a social media force to be reckoned with
If there’s two things we know Kylie Jenner is an advocator of, its social media and reality TV. So it may come as no surprise that the 19-year old make-up mogul is marrying the two together and launching a new video series on Snapchat, which will coincide with her new spin-off show Life of Kylie.
Ask Kylie will launch on August 12 and, as the name suggests, will revolve around the youngest of the Kardashian-Jenner clan, who will be opening up about her relationship struggles, family drama, and what it’s really like to run a highly successful make-up company by answering questions from her real life fans. Members of her inner circle are also reportedly going to be making an appearance – expect cameos from sister Khloé Kardashian, grandmother MJ, and best friend Jordyn Woods.
“We are thrilled to launch E!’s second Snapchat show with one of the biggest stars on the planet,” E! Entertainment president Adam Stotsky said in a statement. “Kylie’s fans are ravenous for more of her stories and it’s an exciting opportunity to engage her fans in a unique way on a platform where we know they live and breathe.”
This isn’t Snapchat’s first foray into releasing its own show. Ask Kylie follows E!’s The Rundown, one of the first fully produced weekly Snapchat Shows, which earlier this year expanded to twice weekly and averages 8 million viewers. The app has also signed deals with major networks like NBCUniversal, A+E Networks, and BBC to host original programming on its Discover page.
Ask Kylie debuts on August 12 on Snapchat Discoverer, followed by five more episodes airing on Saturdays. Life of Kylie premieres a week earlier on August 6 at 9 p.m. EST/PST.
