Kylie Jenner just got real and raw about the not-so-glamorous side of fame. In a sneak peek of the latest Kardashian saga, the 26-year-old queen of lip kits and Instagram selfies had a heart-to-heart with her older sister, Kendall, spilling the tea on what it’s like to live life under the magnifying glass of public scrutiny.
Picture this: Kylie, the billionaire beauty mogul, getting misty-eyed and clutching a tissue (probably Gucci). She looked at Kendall, her eyes welling up like a waterproof mascara test gone wrong, and confessed, “People have been talking about my looks since I was 13. It just gets exhausting.” I mean, can you even imagine? Puberty is rough enough without the entire world chiming in on your awkward phase.
Kylie, the epitome of candidness, went on to say, “Like, I’ve never cried about this before, but I guess it does affect me.” Translation: even the most unbothered Kardashian can have their perfectly contoured feathers ruffled.
And because one emotional moment isn’t enough, Kylie took it a step further in a confessional (cue the dramatic music and soft focus lighting). “I hear nasty things about myself all the time,” she lamented, giving us all a peek behind the velvet ropes of Kardashian-land.
So, next time you swipe through Instagram and see Kylie’s flawless face, remember: behind the filters and the fame, there’s a human being who cries real tears just like the rest of us. Even if her tears are probably more photogenic.
