The internet world is abuzz as a Dubai-Kuwaiti blog site confirms that Kim Kardashian will be visiting the Middle East on October 11, 2012.

As per the reality TV star’s own admission earlier this year, her regional trip will extend to Dubai, Kuwait and Qatar, where she will partake in the expansion of retail outlet, Millions of Milkshakes.

The blog Moody‘N’Cheeky, run by two girls in Dubai and Kuwait, broke the news, stating: “Just got this news from the company behind the franchise of Millions of Milkshakes, Kim Kardashian will be coming to Kuwait on October 11.

“She will be at the opening of Millions of Milkshakes and there will be other private events that she will be attending while she’s here,” according to the blog.

Meanwhile, Expat and the City blog has added another nugget, saying: “Shadi [Ghanim, the Al Recardo CEO, which has in its portfolio Millions of Milkshakes, Golds Gym and Ninas Paris in Kuwait] informed me she [Kardashian] will visit the US Troops while in Kuwait and it was his idea.”

An email has been sent to Millions of Milkshakes founder Sheeraz Hasan, but no reply was forthcoming at the time.

In January of this year, Kardashian had mentioned her upcoming trip on her blog, stating:  “Had fun meeting Sheeraz. We’re planning our next trip to Kuwait, Qatar, Dubai and the Middle East.”

Kardashian, along with mom Jenner, had created a sensation across Dubai when they visited last October, with a media frenzy following in their wake.

Pictured in burqas, smoking sheesha and riding a camel, Kardashian was quoted at the time of her visit, saying: “I am obsessed with Dubai. I would love to return with my family soon.”

However, her Dubai visit was not without controversy when shortly after her trip she filed for divorce with Kris Humphries and is now embroiled in a bitter battle with the NBA star.

Her reality TV cameras of the show, “Kourtney and Kim Take New York”, also followed her around during her previous Dubai visit and created quite a sensation when those episodes were aired when pictorial evidence emerged, suggesting some of those scenes were faked later in a studio to cast Kardashian in favourable light with fans post her filing for divorce after 45-days of marriage.

While details of her Mideast trip are still emerging, fans are already wondering what further drama can be expected this time around.
