211Kviews
Kylie Jenner may have lost her best friend Jordan Woods amid the Tristan-Khloe scandal but don’t feel too sorry for her – as Forbes just named her as the youngest ‘self-made’ billionaire in history. The announcement that crowned her the queen of the Forbes list was hardly a shock as last year she was put on the cover of their “America’s Women Billionaires” issue. However, not everyone was excited to hear about this mogul mom breaking the glass ceiling, because well as a member of the uber-wealthy Kardashian-Jenner clan and its family businesses – becoming the youngest billionaire was more of a roll down convertible than a glass ceiling. Just like they did last year people are sharing their funny comments to the accomplishment and, unlike her lipsticks, they are priceless.
Forbes Magazine just named make-up and fashion mogul Kylie Jenner the youngest ‘self-made’ billionaire ever
At only 21-years-old she has built up her brand Kylie Cosmetics into an empire. There was lip-kit mania over her signature product that became a must-have for every make-up junkie out there. At first, the lip-kits were only available for sale online or at pop-up shops that people were willing to sleep outside for access to. Her money mile-stone came last November when she signed an exclusive distribution deal with make-up retailer Ulta for over 1,000 of their stores. Following the deal, Kylie Cosmetics jumped up a 9% revenue. Forbes estimates the company is worth at least $900 million. And that, kids, what makes her one of the incredibly rich people.

When you combine her cosmetics with her other business ventures the magazine reports that there is no question this famous person is worth an estimated $1 billion dollars – pushing Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg out of the spot of the youngest-ever self-made billionaire. Well a spade is a spade and a billionaire is a billionaire, but people everywhere feel uneasy with the term ‘self-made.’ If you have been keeping up with the Kardashian-Jenners or even give them a quick google you will know that this might not be an accurate term and it is actually more in the lines of being privileged right from the start.
Dictionary.com took it upon themselves to challenge the term ‘self-made’

Don't blame her… blame the sheeps who follow her. she used them. those are to blamed
Exactly. And they have a media empire that rode in on the coat tails of the writers strike and all the reality tv that washed into the void. Let's not pretend they have anything more than that.
You could apply that logic to Revlon, Kat Von D, Natasha Denona or anyone who makes makeup. Why would you blame someone for buying makeup?
Nope blame them both. The sheep for hanging on every word and her for using it for selfish greedy needs.
whats wrong with buying make up? I dont think her way of getting famous is nice, but hey, there're tons of people fully dressed that are a million times worse. For example, fake news and dissing bullshit, or those horrible people putting videos with shit contents to earn fame and clicks. Compare to that, I'd rather look at butts and boobs!
Time to ruin BP with this kartrashian crap
Agreed. Throw out this garbage, put on more art.
Or people saving shrews from puddles of water
I second that. Jesus, I was Seconding Grumble O'Pug's reply.
Exactly. Why do we worship her, anyway?!
Fuck the kardashians, more doggie piccies.....
One of the few times bullying is acceptable on BP. That’s the most trashy thing about this.
They are masters at a game that very few know how to play; making yourself indispensable to millions of sheeple who hang on your every word, for absolutely no logical reason except the highest level of shameless self promotion.
Oh, seriously. You forgot that they have had a tv show for years and that they have morphed their bodies through extensive surgery to create what didn't exist. They rode the wave of social media personifying fantasy for those who seem hollow enough inside to think that they have souls.

I think that perfectly sums it up. "Self-made" surely is incorrectly used here, but staying in the media and making massive profit out of, well, nothing is an achievement that needs to be acknowledged, having a priviled start nonewithstanding. I think most people who "hate" still follow celebrities on social media, Watch TV shows that discuss their affairs and ailments, and buy products not for their pure quality but for the brand. Only if you do neither are you genuinly qualified to rant.
