Kylie Jenner: I Don"t Need Family Anymore! I"m a Billionaire!
New mom Kylie Jenner has been stunning the world with her post-baby bikini body, but she’s more focused on her baby and her business these days.
In fact, she may be a little too busy to slum it with her siblings on the reality show that catapulted them all to stardom.
A new report says that Kylie wants to drop Keeping Up With The Kardashians because she’s a billionaire.
RadarOnline reports that Kylie may quit KUWTK. (Try saying that five times rapidly)
“Kris is desperate to keep Kylie on the show,” the insider warns.
The show is built on the power of their entire family. Unlike, say, Rob, viewers would miss seeing Kylie.
“And,” the source says, Kris “thinks that she is essential to renegotiating” how much they are paid and how much control the family maintains over production and editing.
That is, after all, something that Momager Kris will need to do “after the contracts end.”
But Kylie’s status as the world’s most powerful influencer may not be the leverage that Kris is seeking.
“But,” the insider notes. “She has a billion dollars already.”
Or close enough. Kylie Cosmetics is worth enough to make your eyes bleed, and the value keeps going up every year.
“She doesn’t need the show at all anymore,” the source reveals.
That could spell trouble for the family’s signature series.
Kylie hasn’t needed the show for a while. But now, she just has other priorities.
“Kylie wants to focus on her baby and her cosmetics line instead,” the insider explains.
Reality stardom has reportedly been getting old. Probably because she’s been at it for half of her life.
“She hasn’t been into the show in a while,” the source reports.
“And,” the insider continues. “It just has been really difficult for her to fit it into her already super busy schedule.”
If this report is true, it is understandable that Kylie feels this way.
Kim, Kourtney, Khloe, and Kris all signed up for Keeping Up With The Kardashians. They were grown adults. They had a choice.
Kylie was just a kid. This life path has been massively rewarding, but it’s not something that she chose for herself.
Kylie Cosmetics, however, is her baby. Stormi, in a much more literal sense, is also her baby.
It would make a lot of sense for her to focus on the things that she really wants in life instead of upon the things that were thrust upon her.
Especially if she doesn’t need that reality show paycheck to pay the bills.
But let’s look at this from another angle — and consider whether this report is true.
First of all, Kylie may feel some sense of familial obligation to help keep the show going. She’s certainly helped out her family before.
(Well, she helped out Rob before — he’s arguably the only adult in the family who really needs help with anything)
Second of all, we should remember that all of the Kardashian projects are inextricably tied to their respective brands.
That means that their bodies, their social media presence, their products, and their reality television appearances do not exist within a vacuum.
Kylie may fear that abandoning her family’s show could eventually cause her company to lose value.
There’s another huge factor.
Back in July, we learned that Life of Kylie was renewed.
If Kylie is really too fatigued to continue being on a show on which she is part of an ensemble cast, is she really going to keep doing a show on which she is the star?
We’re not suggesting that anyone place bets one way or the other, but while Kylie may feel conflicted, we wouldn’t be surprised if she sticks with KUWTK.
At least, we don’t expect her to jump ship until the show goes even further downhill.

Kylie Jenner: Caitlyn Is the Reason I"m a Billionaire!
As you may have heard, Kylie Jenner’s cosmetics line is quite popular.
So popular, in fact, that Kylie is almost a billionaire as a result of her wildly successful lip kits and other products.
Of course, there’s a reason that so many have taken issue with the phrase “self-made” being applied to Kylie.
After all, Kylie has had a lot of help from her many famous family members, most notably, of course, her mom and manager, Kris Jenner.
But Kris wasn’t the only parent to raise Kylie, and it seems the 20-year-old mogul wants to remind the world that there’s another important role model in her life.
Kylie has been extremely close to her father for her entire life, and she credits Caitlyn Jenner for helping her grow into the incredibly successful adult she’s become.
Now, she’s repaying the favor by getting Caitlyn involved in her several hundred million dollar makeup empire.
In a recent Instagram story, Kylie brought Caitlyn on camera to help her introduce a new filter that allows fans to see how they would look in various lipstick shades without actually having to buy the product.
“What is an Instagram filter?” asked a slightly confused Caitlyn.
“I saw, ‘Oh Kylie is using an Instagram filter.’ What the hell is that?”
Kylie patiently explained the concept to the 68-year-old former Olympian:
“Try on all my colors and it just makes you look flawless with a little lash,” she stated.
The father-daughter duo seemed to enjoy trying on different shades together, but more important than the new product launch was the obvious bond that they share.
Of course, this isn’t the first time that Kylie has shared her love for Caitlyn on social media.
Most recently, she paid tribute to Cait on Father’s Day by posting a collage of photos of the two of them together.
“So lucky to call you my dad,” she captioned the post.
And we’re sure Cait is equally happy to call Kylie her daughter.

Kylie Jenner: Low-Rated Reality Show Renewed Due to Billionaire Status?
There are perks to being a billionaire that go well beyond having more money than you could ever spend in three lifetimes.
For evidence of this, look no further than Elon Musk, who’s basically transforming into a cartoonish supervillain before our eyes, yet still has millions of fanboys hoping he’ll launch another car into space for fun.
Fortunately, as far as we can tell, Kylie Jenner doesn’t have anything so nefarious as global domination on her agenda.
But that might just be because she hasn’t officially joined the ultra-exclusive Billionaires Club … yet.
As you may have heard Kylie covers the new issue of Forbes, and the magazine reports that at the rate her cosmetics brand is currently growing, the youngest Jenner sister will be worth a cool billion next year at the ripe old age of 21.
That would make her the youngest “self-made” billionaire in history.
(A lot of folks have taken issue with Forbes failure to address the fact that Kylie had a lot of help reaching that milestone, but that’s a conversation for another time.)
Currently, Kylie’s makeup brand is worth about $ 800 billion and she’s raked in about $ 100 million from other ventures.
Needless to say, everything’s coming up Kylie these days, and her astonishing financial interests have revived interest in Kylie’s life and career.
Kylie disappeared from social media while she was pregnant with daughter Stormi but now she’s back and bigger than ever.
And for obvious reasons, everyone wants to be in the Kylie Jenner business nowadays.
You may have forgotten about the Keeping Up With the Kardashians spinoff entitled Life of Kylie that debuted on E! last year.
We say because pretty no one watched the thing.
The ratings for Kylie’s reality show were astonishingly low, and it was widely assumed that the series had been quietly canceled.
But in the wake of Kylie’s astonishing personal and professional success, E! has reportedly decided to give the series a second chance.
“The footage for the second season of Life of Kylie is all pretty much shot. It will follow her life after the birth of her daughter Stormi,” a source tells Radar Online.
“Fans are really interested in seeing Kylie as a mom to Stormi, and they are also really interested in seeing how she made such a massive fortune in such a short period of time.”
Yes, it seems that the public perception of Kylie has changed dramatically in recent weeks, and her reputation has enjoyed a major rebound.
“She is now a role model to so many women out there who think they cannot raise a baby and have a successful career,” says the insider.
The salary from starring and executive producing a second season might help Kylie to reach her new goal:
Apparently, she wants to reach the billion-dollar mark before her 21st birthday next month.
“Cameras will absolutely be filming for her celebration,” the source revealed.
“Right now, Kylie is just determined to hit the billion-dollar mark in one month and she isn’t letting anything stand in her way.”
Fans have jokingly set up GoFundMe pages in order to raise $ 100 million for Kylie, but we’re thinking hitting the mark in the next few weeks is a major long shot.
Even so, we can’t think of a more worthy cause, so you should absolutely go to one of those pages and donate your entire life’s savings to Kylie.

Kylie Jenner: Officially the World"s Youngest Billionaire?!
If the American business tycoon"s greatest talent is the ability to turn a negative into a positive and a want into a need, then Kylie Jenner is the living embodiment of the entrepreneurial spirit.
Kylie proved that she has a firm understanding of how the rich stay rich when she looked at the online commentary about her sizable lips (much of it mocking) and recognized a market niche.
These days Kylie"s cosmetics line is worth hundreds of millions of dollars.
The most valuable part of the business, of course, is not the makeup itself, but Kylie"s name.
Kylie covers the new issue of Forbes magazine as a symbol of the era of "extreme fame leverage."
Some might say her success is built on a shaky foundation, as young people and social media audiences are notoriously fickle.
But the thing about Kylie is, she"s in on the joke — and she"s laughing all the way to the bank:
1. Kylie Covers Forbes
Kylie covers the new issue of Forbes, a major honor for the young mogul. The magazine touts her cosmetics brand as being worth $ 900 million.
2. What’s She Worth?
According to Forbes, Kylie is a soon-to-be billionaire — but she’s not quite there yet. Fortunately, she’s not entirely dependent on the popularity of her lip kits to reach that goal. As her fans know, that’s just one of many revenue streams for Kylizzle.
3. Insta-bucks
An independent market research firm recently concluded that Kylie pulls in roughly a million dollars every time she posts sponsored content on her Instagram page. And if you follow her on the ‘Gram, you know that’s quite often.
4. The Family Business
And of course, there’s the reality show that started it all. Unlike her sisters, Kylie isn’t a producer on Keeping Up With the Kardashian, but she still rakes in a massive salary as one of the stars of the show.
5. Sibling Rivalry
It’s long been rumored that Kylie has eclipsed Kim as the family’s top earner, and Forbes confirms this fact in the magazine’s lengthy profile of the cosmetics mogul.
6. In the Driver’s Seat
“Like Kardashian West, [Kylie] has leveraged her assets to gain both fame and money,” Forbes writes. “But while her sister is best-known for the former, Jenner has proved adept at the latter. In historic fashion.”
Kylie Jenner Makes Forbes Cover as Billionaire Cosmetics Queen
Finally, Kylie Jenner did NOT land a magazine cover for her looks, instead it was her FAT assets as she’s set to become America’s youngest self-made BILLIONAIRE. Forbes put the 20-year-old on the cover of its issue ranking the 60 richest self-made…
