“It’s the power of social media,” Jenner told Forbes magazine. “I had such a strong reach before I was able to start anything.”
Critics slammed Forbes for calling Jenner "self-made" since she was on a reality TV show and famous from a young age but the younger sister of Kim Kardashian clapped back in an interview with Interview Germany, “There’s really no other word to use other than self-made because that is the truth."
“That is the category that I fall under. Although, I am a special case because before I started Kylie Cosmetics, I had a huge platform and lots of fans. I did not get money from my parents past the age of 15. I used 100 percent of my own money to start the company, not a dime in my bank account is inherited… and I am very proud of that," she added.
