It’s Veterans Day, and many celebs are paying tribute to the men and women of the US armed forces by posting heartfelt messages of gratitude on social media.
Kylie Jenner’s Instagram page is usually devoted to bikini photos and product endorsements, but even the Selfie Queen herself took a break from her schedule of self-promotion to give a patriotic salute and share an interesting tidbit of Jenner history.
Moments ago, Kylie posted the pic on the left with a caption reading:
“Thanking all the amazing men and women who served and sacrificed for our freedom. My grandfather is on my mind today who fought in World War II and received 2 Purple Hearts. We miss u.”
Yes, it seems a member of Kylie’s family once boarded a non-private plane to a foreign country and didn’t take a single poolside selfie the whole time.
All kidding aside, Kylie has 40 million Instagram followers and since teens don’t exactly have the greatest reputation when it comes to acknowledging their indebtedness to others and appreciating the contributions of their elders, it’s cool that she’ setting this example.
And don’t worry, we’re sure the usual schedule of Kylie bikini selfies will resume tomorrow. She’s probably already working on her poses.
