We’re just two weeks away from the premiere of Kocktails With Khloe – a new FYI network tall show in which Khloe Kardashian chats with celebrity guests while mixing up boozy libations.
Haven’t heard of the show yet? Well, apparently you’re not alone, as execs are said to be freaking out about the lack of public interest surrounding what they thought would be a surefire hit.
“They are really concerned with how little hype the show is getting and are really concerned with the fact that the show’s trailer has gotten fewer than 10,000 hits on YouTube,” a source close to the situation tells Radar Online.
“It is just very alarming to them, and they have asked Khloe to step up her game in terms of promotion.”
Yes, with 10,000 hits from a woman who has nearly 40 million Instagram followers, it’s not hard to see why the folks at FYI are seeing a bit of a disparity.
At the same time, it’s hard to be sympathetic to their plight.
If the disaster that was Kris Jenner’s talk show taught us anything, it’s that no one is interested in helping members of the Kard clan make the leap into Oprah Land.
To make matters worse, Khloe is having trouble booking guests, as it appears A-list celebs aren’t lining up to be interviewed by a Kardashian on a basic cable network no one’s ever heard of. Go figure.
It’s a good thing the set will have plenty of booze on hand. Something tells us Khloe will need a kocktail when those ratings figures start coming in.
