Since childhood, Kylie Jenner has always been considered unattractive and talentless. The “ugly girl” has now become a world billionaire with a famous cosmetics company.
At the age of 9, Kylie first appeared in public on the family’s reality TV show Keeping Up With The Kardashians. The show revolves around the lives of the Kardashian – Jenner family, from shopping, beauty to conflicts between members.
The program quickly attracted the audience’s attention. At that time, Kylie was criticized for being pale and not having any talent compared to her sisters. Many years have passed, Kylie Jenner is now a self-made billionaire with the “biggest” finances of the Kardashian family.
“Ugly duck”
Since she was a child, Kylie Jenner was always considered the “ugly duckling” in the flashy “swan” family. At that time, Kylie was often compared to Kendall Jenner – her beautiful sister. This comparison once hurt Kylie.

Kylie always had to go through a childhood full of self-consciousness about her appearance. She does not have long, slim legs like her sister Kendall, nor does she use her private life to create a stepping stone to fame like Kim Kardashian. For many years, she was always ridiculed and teased for being ugly.
In an interview with the BBC , Kylie said she was bullied at school because she had a more pointed chin than other students. She also became the subject of bullying because of her different appearance, being famous since childhood and being born into a wealthy family.

In return, from a young age, Kylie Jenner had business acumen. In 2013, Travis Scott’s girlfriend was only 16 years old at that time, but she achieved certain success when she and her sister launched the Kendall & Kylie fashion product line for teenagers.
She knows how to take advantage of the existing reputation from her family’s reality show to help her two sisters’ brand become a global trend. The first step helps Kylie and Kendall pocket millions of dollars every year.
Kylie Jenner’s turning point was when she got lip injections in 2014. This decision caused the youngest Kardashian sister to be criticized by the public. “Does Kylie have lip augmentation or not” was the most searched keyword about her at that time. Whether she likes it or not, “thin lips” have accidentally created a new attraction for Kylie.

Not only did Kylie learn how to build a fiery image like her sister Kim Kardashian. She started the trend of taking selfies showing off her thick lips and sexy, lazy expression. Kylie’s photos on social networks attract thousands of likes. Currently, her number of followers is up to 171 million on Instagram. This helps the young billionaire get paid 1.26 million USD for each post.
The journey to overcome troubles to become a billionaire
The first steps reaped a lot of success. Besides the admiration for the young girl, many people attacked Kylie. Anti-fans use the words “brainless”, “silicon”, “fake”, “cheap”… to talk about her.
Instead of speaking out in response to public opinion, the businessman born in 1997 quietly created a cosmetic empire named after himself to prove what “no brain” can do.
In 2016, the youngest sister of the thi phi family launched the cosmetics brand Kylie Cosmetics, including lipstick models associated with her name and image along with eyeliner models and other cosmetics. Within the first 18 months, Kylie Cosmetics became the best-selling cosmetics brand in the world.

The growth rate of the Kylie Cosmetics brand even surpasses that of large and long-standing cosmetic brands. Because these cosmetic lines need 80 years to reach 1 billion USD in sales.
As of March 2019, she owns 100% of Kylie Cosmetics shares with a value of 900 million USD. In the next 7 months, the female billionaire agreed to sell 51% of her company’s shares to cosmetics manufacturer Coty for $600 million, thereby pushing the valuation of Kylie Cosmetics to $1.2 billion. Besides business, Kylie also has a rich source of income thanks to advertising contracts.
When Kylie’s income was announced, many people were surprised because she is the most successful person in the Kardashian family. In 2019, Kylie Jenner broke Mark Zuckerberg’s record and became the world’s youngest self-made billionaire. On April 8, Forbes magazine announced that she continued to lead the top 10 youngest billionaires on the planet with a fortune of more than 1 billion USD.
Not only that, she also owns a significant real estate investment portfolio at the age of 22. “Hollywood’s number one hot girl” owned her first villa when she was only 17 years old. Jenner’s first villa is located in Calabasas area, Los Angeles city (California state, USA), worth 2.7 million USD. After 2 years, she sold the house for 3.15 million USD. Kylie also bought many other properties in Hidden Hills, Beverly Hills… worth tens of millions of dollars. Recently, she also spent 36.5 million USD to buy a villa in Holmby Hills.

Noisy love affair with rapper boyfriend
In contrast to her business success, Kylie Jenner’s love life encountered many obstacles and noise.
The first time Kylie Jenner was spotted dating Travis Scott was in April 2017. The two also appeared at the Coachella Valley Music and Arts Festival. Many people also saw the duo locking lips during the ceremony. They do not speak out about their relationship, but the two often post photos of each other on their personal pages, implicitly asserting their “sovereignty” over the other.

Not long after knowing each other, the female billionaire and her sister Kendall Jenner celebrated her boyfriend’s birthday in New York, USA. After that time, the young couple often appeared together.
A few months later, a series of reputable news sites reported that Kylie was pregnant with the Highest In The Room singer’s daughter . In early 2018, the businessman gave birth to her first daughter, Stormi Webster. At that time, she was 21 years old and had been dating her boyfriend for less than a year.

But the two’s feelings were broken before any wedding took place. All efforts to reconcile failed, Jenner and Scott decided to go their separate ways after 2 years of being together.
