Kylie Jenner has taken headlines, in less than a year of her turning 18 she has become the most famous Kardashian of 2015. She’s decided to carry on the Kardashian legacy of controversy and publicity, with her relationship to semi-accomplished rapper Tyga, who is 8 years older than her and has a three year old kid with his previous partner Blac Chyna. Since Kylie has reached the age of consent and is no longer a minor, we no longer have to cringe when liking her instagram photos, realizing she was underage. With Kylie reaching adulthood, she’s wanted to make a name of her own, and with her freshly injected lips, she’s set out to make her own fame and fortune.
Kylie & Tyga
Her relationship with the 26 year old rapper Tyga, was one of her steps to gaining exposure, as it was her first seriously publicized relationship. By deciding to date Tyga, Kylie put herself between her and Tyga’s baby mama, who is still trying to win Tyga back. Throughout 2015, Kylie and Tyga’s off and on relationship is looking more and more like that annoying high school couple that hate each other, but can’t do anything without each other. Kylie has called it quits after texts exposed Tyga, of trying to win Blac Chyna back. Faced with the decision of choosing between Kylie or Chyna, Tyga decided to cut all communication Blac Chyna, and to propose to Kylie, who has been photographed having a diamond engagement ring.
Kylie breaking the Internet
Kylie has also taken over the internet, becoming the most followed snapchatter as of 2015, snapping her day to day life, and romantic pics with Tyga. With 45 million followers, Kylie also has one of the top 10 most followed instagram accounts, and she has even surpassed her sisters Khloe and Kendall. Without having to release a sex-tape Kylie has amassed an army of fans, and has become the most talked about Kardashian in 2015. Kylie has also used her large following of admirers to launch her own subscription app, which gives subscribers the chance to delve deep into the personal world of Kylie Jenner. As of September 2015, this app goes for the low cost of $3 dollars a month and fans might or might not be able to access this glitch ridden app, to watch Kylie advertise expensive products from a number of companies she’s most likely sponsored by. However, it seems like this is the stuff Kylie fans enjoy, since Kylie’s app quickly outsold her sisters apps, having been bought by 1.5 million people in the first five days of its release. Kylie’s app is set to make her $15 million in 2015, which isn’t that bad for the youngest Kardashian.
Kylie’s revolution
Kylie has also sparked a revolution in the way we perceive beauty. Most of us have been taught that self-acceptance is the way to achieving self-confidence and inner beauty, but Kylie sees things differently, as she has changed her whole outward appearance to her perceived image of beauty. What Kylie really teaches us is that, why settle for our bad genes and humanly faults when we can build a new image of ourselves, just as Kylie has done with her fake lips, large assortment of colored wigs and the cheekbones she paints on her face every morning. Kylie Jenner has taught us a lot about fame and beauty, and she has taken centre stage on social media to express her thoughts and views, which is why she has earned the title of “Kardashian of the Year”.
