Kylie Jenner is now the world's youngest billionaire
MSN NBC ^ | March 5, 2019

At age 21, the reality TV star and makeup guru Kylie Jenner is the world's youngest billionaire, according to Forbes.

The magazine on Tuesday released its annual ranking of the planet's richest people for 2019, announcing that Jenner not only made the billionaires' list for the first time but is the world's youngest billionaire as well as the "youngest self-made billionaire of all time." The youngest of the famous Kardashian-Jenner family ranked at number 2,057 on the list of 2,153.

Forbes credited Jenner's billionaire status to the success of her makeup company, Kylie Cosmetics, which she founded in 2015 with the sale of the wildly popular lip kits — a set which included liquid lipsticks and matching lip liner.

Kylie is the spawn of Bruce and Kris, so I don’t think there’s any Armenian blood there.

I wish I had a deprived childhood for a billion dollars.

No you don't, you're happy with what you have.....I am.

No part Armenian. You’re thinking of her half-sisters, who are half Armenian. Both mom and dad are Brit and Dutch.

Huh ... the girl on the left has a pretty face. The robot on the right looks fake.

[They are monetizing their awful mother’s campaign to deprive them of normal childhoods and use them as IMAGES. They are famous for nothing whatsoever except a lot of plastic surgery.]

I could sacrifice a “normal childhood’ for a personal wealth of $1B...

I’m sure she thanks OJ every night.


LOL!

OJ, or sis? Robert Shapiro’s kids aren’t billionaires.

I favor the brunette girl on the left too. The blonde one on the right is too heavily made up - grotesque even.

Maybe I'm unique as a guy but I prefer women to have minimal makeup. Women in pancake makeup, thick false eyelashes and heavy lipstick make me want to gag.

Agreed.

The back story here is that she complained that boys would tell her she had thin lips and she got a complex about them. So she developed her "lip kit" that gave her the current lips.

Which have, obviously, been injected/inflated with collagen and are not the result of cosmetics.

Nothing more ugly than fish lips.

Except tattoos.

And piercings.

American women really are ugly.

Yes, there’s no appeal for me with regard to “fat lips” either. The fact that she developed a “lip kit” to have this done to herself is astonishing to me.

Not my understanding of “self-made” either.

I object to the self made title. She has a cosmetics line. Unless she has a lab in the basement where she came up with all that stuff, she was approached by some money people with connections to be the figure head of a company that would use her name and image as the current "it girl" to sell the product. In return she gets a major ownership stake. Same thing they did with Jessica Alba and her "Honest Company".

She may be a billionaire but she sure as heck didn't do the leg work to make it happen.
