Between legal battles with Kanye West and her ever-expanding business empire, Kim Kardashian has a full plate. However, amid her personal struggles, she’s diving into a new television project alongside her longtime friend, La La Anthony.
Hulu’s ‘Group Chat’ Brings Kim and La La Together
As reported by Yahoo! News, Hulu has officially greenlit “Group Chat”, a satirical comedy that stars and is executive produced by La La Anthony. The show is part of Kim’s first-look deal with 20th Television, with BET Studios and Kenya Barris backing the production.
Inspired by La La’s bestselling book, The Love Playbook: Rules for Love, Sex, and Happiness, “Group Chat” follows five powerful, stylish women in their 40s who appear to have mastered life in Los Angeles. But beneath their glamorous social media lives, their secret group chat exposes their raw, messy, and brutally honest truths.
A Well-Timed Escape from Custody Drama
For Kim, “Group Chat” might be the perfect escape from the legal storm brewing between her and Kanye West. Recent reports from TMZ suggest she’s considering revoking Kanye’s joint legal custody rights after he released a song featuring their daughter, North West, without her consent.
While West allegedly rarely sees their children, their divorce agreement states that major parenting decisions should be settled privately. However, his decision to go ahead with the song release has reportedly pushed Kim to reconsider their legal arrangement.
The Strong Bond Between Kim and La La
Beyond work, Kim and La La share a long-standing friendship, which extends to their children. In January, La La’s son, Kiyan Anthony, sent Kim a custom Syracuse bomber jacket in honor of his father, Carmelo Anthony’s legendary college basketball career. Kim was touched by the gift and shared it on social media with a heartfelt “Thank you @kiyananthony.”
With their deep personal connection, working on “Group Chat” together might provide Kim with a much-needed support system and distraction during this turbulent time.
