“Keeping Up”, IG model Blac
Chyna is suing the Kardashian family for allegedly getting her reality show cancelled.

ob Kardashian and Blac Chyna dated briefly in 2016; They went IG official that summer, announcing a baby girl and a reality show both on the way within a few months. I can’t lie, it was pretty interesting to see Chyna wiggle right into the same circle that broke up her own little family. Some say messy, some say iconic. Tomato, tomahto. Anyway, the couple filmed season 1 of their reality show, “Rob and Chyna” that same year. Although they broke up just a month after their daughter Dream was born, filming for season 2 was already under way. In July 2017, E! issued a statement saying they were “planning to follow the Kardashian family lead on what to do next.” That right there is pretty telling in my book but, but what do I know? Chyna pursued legal action (as she should’ve) a few months later claiming that the Ka dashian family got her show cancelled. Ain’t that what it sounds like? Things seemed to be quietly going in her favor in 2020 when a judge ordered the production company Bunim/Murray to hand over unreleased footage of what was supposed to be season 2 of “Rob and Chyna.” Fast forward to April 2022 and Chyna took to social media to let us know that she was not letting up
on Kris Jenner or her kids. “I am so thankful that a jury will finally listen to what really happened behind closed doors — the lies that were told and the damage that was done,” Chyna posted on Twitter. Things seemed to be going in her favor once more at the start of the trial when she and her lawyer pulled up with the receipts! Texts and emails have surfaced of various members of the famous family saying things like, “Chyna can never be on our show”, and “We are even considering not moving forward with our show if theirs continues, that’s how strongly we feel.” A text from Kris even called the mother of her granddaughter “ghetto and stupid”. Now see… It’s just something about a white woman calling a black woman ghetto that doesn’t agree with my spirit. But this ain’t about me. There hasn’t been a real concrete answer as to exactly how much money Chyna is asking for. It’s certainly well over $100 million. Her demands include $44 million for “past economic damage” and $64 million for “future economic damage.” She claims her show’s
cancellation caused her to miss out on attaining several lucrative deals, including reality TV appearances, club appearances, and social media posts. Basically they stopped her bag and she wants that plus some. I know that’s right! Last week, the trial took a turn in a different direction. Alleged physical altercations between the two have seemed to become the forefront. Chyna got on the stand crying, doing too much and it just really didn’t give what it was supposed to. Girl you had one job! It’s hard to say how this will end. All I know is something in the milk ain’t clean.
