Forbes's annual list of billionaires refers to the 21-year-old cosmetics mogul as 'self-made.'
Kylie Jenner arrives at the Grammy Awards on Feb. 10. By Sonia Rao Sonia Rao Pop culture reporter Email Bio Follow March 5 at 5:20 PM Just as last week’s cheating scandal begins to fade from our collective memory, another KarJenner bombshell hits: Kylie Jenner, the youngest of the clan, has become the youngest billionaire in the world.
For what it’s worth, Forbes noted that it uses “self-made” to describe anyone who didn’t inherit their business or fortune. “But the term is very broad,” the magazine acknowledged, “and does not adequately reflect how far some people have come and, relatively speaking, how much easier others have had it.”
“It’s the power of social media,” Jenner told Forbes, which notes that she boasts more than 175 million followers across Instagram, Snapchat, Facebook and Twitter. “I had such a strong reach before I was able to start anything.”
