'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' Lead Star Makes Waves Onscreen, in Print and on the Dance Floor?

Socialite Kim Kardashian and her family are all set to take reality television by storm when their new reality show airs beginning October 14.

Keeping up with the Kardashians will follow the life and adventures of the 26-year old model, actress and entrepreneur along with sisters Kourtney and Khloe, half sisters Kendall and Kylie, mom Kris and stepfather Bruce. The show is produced by Ryan Seacrest Productions with six episodes constituting the initial season.

Meanwhile, Keeping Up with the Kardashians main star, Kim, continues to add to her growing list of credits by recently agreeing to appear on the adult magazine, Playboy. According to E! Online, Kim Kardashian will grace the December cover of the skin publication. Us Weekly mentions that during her photoshoot, Kardashian wound up showing much more than she may have intended. Apparently, she ended up displaying "one boob and her bare butt" despite the fact that she was draped in sheets and jewelry.

With her Playboy spread, Kardashian joins several other E! stars who have consented to appear in the magazine. Former Wild On presenter Brooke Burke had previously disrobed for Playboy along with Holly Madison, Bridget Marquardt and Kendra Wilkinson, who are Hugh Hefner's playmates on another E! reality show, The Girls Next Door.

Still on Kim Kardashian, the New York Post gossip column, Page Six, reported over the weekend that she was seen getting cozy with Academy Award-nominated actor Terence Howard at the Tenjune and Butter nightclubs last week. The report said "They were all over each other. She was sitting on his lap and he was rubbing her butt."

However, Kardashian told Us Weekly that those reports are mistaken.

"They must have me mixed up with his new girlfriend, [Miss USA Rachel Smith]!" Kardashian told Us Weekly. "I was never at the places they said... I've met [Howard] a few times but we're not even friends."

Keeping Up with the Kardashians debuts October 14, 10:30pm on E!



Of course I'll watch, but more reasons to hate Ryan Seacrest. I'm sure stepbro/fellow media whore Brody Jenner will make an appearance or two.
