Kylie Jenner made it to TIME’s Most Influential Teens for the second year in a row. The magazine explained she got into the list owing to her “notoriety online and ability to catalyze trends in fashion and beauty.”
The Reality star granted the magazine an interview following the release of the list and talked about a lot of things. Read excerpts from the interview below
On the harsh criticisms that followed her first mention as TIME’s Most Influential…
I think people expect a lot out of [me and my family]. Whether we’re influential for one reason or another, it is what it is. I know how influential I am over my fans and followers. I feel like everything I do, my hair color, my makeup, I always start these huge trends, and I don’t even realize what I’m capable of. I didn’t care what people had to say; I didn’t even read any of that stuff. People might have been upset because we were next to, like, young girls who started schools and crazy things. But we’re just different people! We’re influential in different ways, and that’s okay.
On how her life has changed since she first appeared on the list…
It’s gotten much bigger. I never thought that that could happen. But it keeps growing, which is awesome. I’m figuring out exactly what I want to do and becoming the businesswoman that I want to be. My lip kit is launching soon, and I want to have a successful makeup line. There’s a lot of exciting things coming up that I’m excited about. I’m becoming a woman, I have my own house, and I’m really coming into my own now.
On if her social media influence is limiting…
Yeah, absolutely. Having a reality TV show, and an app and Snapchat, people think they know exactly who you are. People think they have a perfect idea of who you are from a four-second Snapchat video…and fake blogs, stories, magazine covers. In reality, that’s not the case. Nobody knows who I am except family and my close friends. But it is what it is. People have to be sensitive to—I hate using the word “celebrities”—people in the spotlight. Because there’s so much more than what you see on the cover of a magazine.
