Kylie Jenner needed duct tape to secure this outfit: too mature or fine?

Kylie Jenner

These are photos of Kylie Jenner celebrating the opening of a new Sugar Factory in Santa Barbara. She’s holding up Version 2.0 of the “Kylie” lollipop, but no one is thinking about the candy. Instead, people are wondering why a 17-year-old girl is wearing a sheer dress that shows off her girls. The answer to that question is complicated. Kylie’s been encouraged from a young age to capitalize on her looks. She’s been taught that aging into one’s early 20s is “scary,” and she’s been taught that cosmetic enhancement builds confidence. Besides money, self-esteem is the ultimate goal for the Kardashians.

This outfit is pretty outlandish for a teenager to wear. The plunging neckline caused people to wonder if Kylie had a boob job. In a now-deleted caption, Kylie wrote on Instagram, “There’s a lot of duct tape under this dress holding these suckers up.” She also deleted the photo of tape on her chest. At the Sugar Factory, Kylie spoke with Us Weekly:

Kylie’s impact on young people: “It’s been years, but I still feel like I’m just someone normal. It’s crazy. I don’t realize it until I dye my hair blue and go to a meet and greet the next week and half the girls have blue hair. I don’t realize the big impact I have, so it’s just crazy.”

Her favorite workout music: “Anything from Kanye West. He keeps me going.”

[From Us Weekly]

Kylie knows that she influences other young girls. The Kylie Jenner lip challenge wasn’t too long ago. I don’t know if she’s playing dumb with journos, or if she’s outright lying. Earlier this year, Kylie claimed to never work out because her “Jenner genes” kept her in good shape. I won’t jump on Kylie for fibbing because she comes from a family of liars. It’s all she knows.

    She is 17. 17. She should be in her junior year of high school and going to prom. She should not have bolt ons, be “smashed”, inject stuff into her lips and walk around showing off her wares and influencing other teens that this is ok. If it was anyone else I would ask where in the world her mother and father are, but we already know the answer. One is counting money and the other is in her “glam” room. Tragedy. Travesty. Abuse.

    • Wolf says:

      This.

    • Eleonor says:

      CO-SIGN.
      I feel sorry for her, seriously.

      • Susan1 says:

        I do too. She doesn’t stand a chance. Khloe, the one I had hope for, has gone to the dark side and become budget Kim. Kyle just wants to be Kim 2.0. There is a huge push to make them “acceptable” because they are able to generate so much money. As a society, we have sunk to a real low in elevating these people to the heights they now have gained. #Kyliedoesntstandachance #SaveKylie

    • Dawn says:

      You are absolutely right. This should be considered child neglect when we see a 17 year old dressed as if she is advertising her wares and looking like this at a candy shop opening no less. Shameful.

    • Dana m says:

      I agree. A tragedy in the making here.

      Shame on her parents.

    • RandomChatter says:

      Truth right there. I can’t for the life of me, understand why a 17 yr old wants to look 35. Trust me, 35 comes all too fast. That whole family is a screwed up mess.

      • BW says:

        No wonder they’ve been taught that turning 20 is “scary.” When you look 35 and you’re only 17, you’re going to look 40 by the time you turn 20.

        I’m 55 and yesterday two people thought I was 35. The benefits of being able to move my face.

    • loud.noises says:

      yeah except have you seen some of teenage girls at prom these days? many of them don’t look much different, except with less obvious boob jobs (tho some of them….). so let’s not be too unreal about what teenagers are doing these days.
      the rest of the whole situation on the other hand….

      • TeaAndSympathy says:

        It’s not just teenagers, loud.noises… As a teacher in a primary (elementary) school, I have the same conversation each December, as Year 6 is preparing to leave and move on to high school.

        Once upon a time, the girls and boys would go home after school, presumably shower and dress nicely and arrive at the set venue for the Year 6 Farewell. No more. Now, at my school at least, 50% of the girls do not even come to school on the day. Of the ones who do, half will go home early. The girls are 11 – 12 years old. They cannot be at school as they have appointments booked: Fake tanning session, waxing of legs, eyebrows, upper lip etc., manicure – with or without fake nails, pedicure, hair and make up – with or without fake eyelashes. They need to do these early, as the photographer/s and limousine/Hummer/vintage Rolls will arrive at 3:30pm. They have home photos done (in addition to the selfies and photos taken by mum and Aunty during the preparation). The dress, a designer copy made by a recommended dressmaker is put on, along with heels and jewellery to match. Mum breaks out her Chanel No 5 and spritzes her baby girl…

        The professional photos are glamour shots in lovely locations – the lake and bridge near their home, grandma’s award-winning garden, one of the many local historic buildings or the beautiful historic park nearby… At the appointed time, their vehicle of choice will slowly arrive at the venue, where friends and family can photograph or video the arrival. When the car stops at the entrance, the lucky girl will exit the vehicle and be met with a barrage of flashes from her friends (who arrived minutes before with similar fanfare) taking photos and oohing and aahing at how stunning and awesome Shanniyah is…

        All this has not taken place in the Lower North Shore, Eastern Suburbs or The Shire – posh areas – but an ordinary outer Sydney suburb.

        I’m pretty sure there’s no going back.

    • Duchess of Corolla says:

      +1

    • Caz says:

      Couldn’t have said it better. Such a bad role model. Her face looks dirty due to the amount of makeup on it. Looks like she’s playing dress ups in mummy’s closet.

    • G says:

      Boom. Yes. Yes and YES!

    • E.M. MAXX says:

      Wow that said it all !!! Perfectly put !!!!!!

  2. Christin says:

    I still can’t reconcile this is the same person as a year ago. And I have no idea what a ‘couture pop’ is. Is it truly candy, just plopped on top of some sparkly holder?

    Edit — I did a quick search and answered my own question (which is YES, at $30 a pop). And, I learned that the A. Brassiere business showing behind her is actually a RESTAURANT. ?????????????????

    • Sabrine says:

      “Brasserie” is “restaurant” in French which is probably what this is.

    • Arock says:

      Brassiere is an French term for a restaurant or cafe, not a woman’s undergarment.

    • Christin says:

      I guess the full name and type font used threw me. It sounds like a lingerie store.

    • Greek chic says:

      She looks like a playboy model.Her boobs look fake to me.

      Not American here and I was wandering if the thing that she’s holding is a real lollipop. Also I understand that the store needs promotion, but its a little weird to use celebrities and also give Kylie’s name to a lollipop. It’s just candy!

      • M.A.F. says:

        I know that Dylan Candy shop in NYC uses celebrities all the time but that is usually to promote the store not a lollipop.

      • Christin says:

        Based on the 2013 article I found, it really is candy at the top. There is some type of plastic cover that can be used so it can be placed in a purse.

        The way she dresses and her family behaves, candy and food were not what I thought she was promoting here.

  3. MelissaManifesto says:

    Neither mature nor fine, just plain stupid and desperate.

    • Petee says:

      The transformation is complete.She looks just like Kim.And yes those are fake breasts.On the Daily Mail they have pictures and from the side angle you can tell.Good boob job.Just very sad a 17 year old has had so much work done.And promoting Kanye West?This family makes me hurl.

      • swack says:

        Not sure if it’s a good boob job or not. They are either too large for her frame or they are sagging from the weight of them. The left one looks lower than the right one (maybe it’s just how she’s standing).

      • boredblond says:

        I think it’s a lot of encased saline holding her up (and out)..doubt she knows what duct tape is..sad that she’s just a few surgeries away from being Kim, shrug..

  4. LookyLoo says:

    I feel sorry for these people. Yes, they are making money hand over fist, but the vapidity of it all is overwhelming.

  5. Tate says:

    Kim doll 2.0

  6. Ainsley says:

    That’s some terrible contouring/blending. Her face is orange and white streaked.

  7. tifzlan says:

    Next to the article about Angelina and Shiloh… yeah, you see where i’m going with this.

    Something is very wrong when a 7 year old child has more awareness of what’s going on around the world and has a greater desire to contribute to society in an actually productive, beneficial way.

    • Bell says:

      What a difference good parenting makes!
      I feel sorry for Kylie. Shiloh is lucky to
      have Brad and Angelina as parents!

    • The Original Mia says:

      Preach!

    • bluhare says:

      Amen. Sad thing is this article has more comments. And I just contributed to it.

    • M.A.F. says:

      It always comes down to the parents. Now some, in spite of their parents, do turn out all right but in this case, we know that is not going to happen.

  8. Sullivan says:

    She looks 30 years old. There’s a cute teenager under all that stuff.

    • Tate says:

      Yes, there is a very cute teenager under all that plastic and makeup but sadly she is probably long gone.

    • Get off your high horse says:

      She’s probably wearing more makeup on this one day then I have worn in my entire life!!

    • Norman Bates' Mother says:

      She tries to look like Kim and she succeeds – they look about the same age and I actually assumed she must have some Armenian ancestry as well, because she (now) has similar coloring as her older sisters. I didn’t really know much about this family so I was surprised to read that 1) only R. Kardashian was Armenian, 2) PMK’s maiden name is Houghton and she is of mostly English descent, so is Caitlyn 3) Kylie used to be rather pale, brown-haired child. I hope she uses spray tan not the lamps – so much tanning from such a young age can’t be good for the skin. But all the plastic surgeries and fillers can’t be either.

    • littlemissnaughty says:

      I don’t think this family knows the concept of “less is more”. She’s a pretty girl but yeah, with all that sh*t caked on her face, the fake nail, the outfit … the girl looks at least 10 years older. For someone who’s so afraid to enter her 20s, she sure skipped them looks-wise.

      I wouldn’t even know how to get that much makeup to stick.

    • Greek chic says:

      I am almost 30 and i look much younger that Kylie. She looks so bad.
      I have never worn an outfit like this, never had so much make up in my face and never had nails like these. I prefer my jeans and converse sneakers.
      Jesus.She looks like a madame.

  9. LAK says:

    Normally I’d not rush to condemn because teens, me included, have acted older, dressed older and or inappropriately, dated older guys yadayadayada it’s a cliché, BUT in her case, she has no other options. She thinks this is normal and the solution to any problems she might have is to mutilate her body. She lies because that’s the values of her family.

    Actually, rather than condemn, I pity her.

    And she has awful role models in Kim and Khloe. Especially Khloe who has documented all the bad things that caused her mental anguish as a teen, but who isn’t looking out for a sister she’s mothering so that she doesn’t make those same mistakes.

    • Shambles says:

      Co-sign. I can feel nothing but a horrified sense of sadness when I look at her now. When I saw these photos, all I could think of was the word “temporary.” Everything about her is plastic– she is just a beautiful, plastic puppet. She’s a dummy. And in 20 years, when the world has found a new spectacle to gawk at, she will have absolutely nothing. No beauty– the plastic won’t age well from puberty to adulthood. No body– the fat injections will shift. No brains– flowers don’t grow when they’ve never been watered. It’s so damn sad.

      Her mother raised her as a product, and her father did nothing to stop it. Both of the parents in her life have absolutely failed her. I hope someday she has a moment of lucidity and seeks help.

    • Amber says:

      Just practically speaking, whenever I look at Kim I think, “What are you going to look like at 40” or “by the age of 40”, which are two separate things. “At 40” is more about how the plastic surgery will age, which we really don’t know. “By 40” is wondering what more may she do to herself by then. So it’s that and double for Kylie, who started barely out of puberty. And all of this low self-worth creating, vile, vain, shallow, materialistic, greedy garbage has been beaten into Kylie and took hold by the time she was in elementary school. Meanwhile, Kim’s (lumpy, saggy, constantly requiring maintenance) butt injections alone show the lack of forethought and self-awareness that we’ve observed with this family. I imagine the surgery, the hustling and/or the very public relationship with the criminal, if only exceedingly inappropriate, boyfriend are only the beginning with Kylie. She has already made herself into Kim, http://a.disquscdn.com/uploads/mediaembed/images/2180/9341/original.jpg?w=480&h when she didn’t look a thing like her and shouldn’t have been encouraged to follow in those footsteps at all, on any level. I mean the encouragement she got from Khloe and Kim is just sickening and so depressing. This is clearly their normal, THAT THEY’VE FOSTERED every step of the way.

      And on that same vapid note, forget something new coming along (which it or THEY will) and just how stunted, damaged, but well trained for self-loathing the Kardashian-Jenner siblings are. God help Kylie and Kim when the uncanny valley, plastic, orange-tan, mega-contoured, blow-up doll look is out, (or becomes an even bigger punchline). And it will be. Sooner than later. All these things go in cycles and there’s no going back, only starting a new series of trying to fix things, once you’ve done this to your face http://i2.mediatakeout.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/Kylie_Face_Ruined.jpg

      • Elisabetta says:

        @Amber – Kylie looks EXACTLY like Big Ang in the pic in the second link you posted. Kylie is pathetic and sad. There is no one looking out for her. They let her date a grown man, they let her get ass injections, breast implants, and blow her lips up to the point it looks like they’re about to turn inside out. They didn’t even make her wait until she was older bc they don’t care enough to consider that she might regret it someday. The whole family is really nauseating. This kid is basically a blow up doll.

  10. We Are All Made of Stars says:

    I now feel truly sad for this child. When I saw her in her Instagram pics, I frequently thought she was legitimately pretty if fake. But now seeing her in the light of day all trussed up with her boobs hanging out and taped into her dress, it just feels more like Traci Lords to me. Disconcerting.

  11. Deedee says:

    This is so sad. No childhood to speak off.

  12. Elfie says:

    I think the plastic surgery is very concerning. I don’t understand how surgeons are allowed to mutilate underage, healthy bodies for no reason. Don’t they have to take an oath to do no harm?

    She’s so vapid and ridiculous looking with the silly pouts, it’s bizarre. She’s only 17 and already on the road to crazyville.

    • swack says:

      There are doctors out there that will do anything for money. Ethics be d@mned.

    • Elisabetta says:

      I agree that the plastic surgery is concerning. What is most concerning to me is how much she has actually had done! She has butt injections and her butt is literally bigger with every public appearance she makes. Her breasts have doubled in size. She owned up to the lips, but her new body is supposed to be the result of “weight gain” because she thinks the whole world is stupid. No one goes through puberty at 17 overnight, nor do they only gain weight in their breasts and ass. A few months ago this girl’s butt was flat as a board and a quick Google search proves that.

      I watch the show and I saw on a recent episode Kim, Khloe, and Kendall gathered at a doctor’s office and Khloe was getting some laser treatment on her butt to remove stretch marks and cellulite. Khloe said to Kendall, “Are you getting anything done?” and Kendall said no. Then Kim showed up and it became the two of them asking each other, “What are you gonna get done?!” As if they were two people discussing what flavor ice cream they would be getting at an ice cream parlor. They spend their time in doctor’s offices getting all kinds of procedures in an attempt to be perfect and they want everyone to believe they’re all 100% natural and untampered with. When they walked in the door they were on a first name basis with the doctor and greeted him with a kiss on the cheek. It’s pretty pitiful that they can’t admit that they’re all fake. Another poster up above said they’re all going to the Baby Jane’s in the future, and it was such a spot on comment!

  13. hadlyB says:

    This girls get a free pass for lying because her family are liars? She doesn’t know right from wrong so its ok to lie? Are you kidding me??

    Also — I don’t understand these sympathy posts. I don’t feel sorry for her AT ALL. She knows exactly what she is doing. If she wanted to be a better person she could do it. She just doesn’t want to do it.

    Work and go to school? Nope too hard. Actually do real work? Nope. Not make easy money? Nope. She knows there are other jobs and careers out there come on.

  14. Felice. says:

    She’s already aging tbh. She looks older than 20 so her aging into her 20s being scary is just moot.

  15. Victoria1 says:

    I wonder if Kim is like oh that’s what my old face looked like 4.0 versions ago… Why doesn’t CPS/ACS (whatever California version) investigate this family for neglect? She’s still a minor, not in school or “homeschool” and dating a much older man. That outfit is terrible, she looks plastic and is well on her way to joining the daily porn business

  16. GPSB says:

    The skin tone is so radically different between her forehead, under eyes, cheekbones, chin, neck and boobs, it’s like her make-up artist was working from a Crayola box.

  17. alicegrey12 says:

    If you ask me the dress is to mature for a seventeen year old

  18. greenmonster says:

    I don’t think she is working out. Her legs don’t look trained at all. And besides that, when would she fit working out into her busy schedule off showering for hours and putting on make up for hours. She would have to start all over again IF she would be working out.

    • claire says:

      She just admitted in an interview last week that she absolutely never works out. She just pranced around in workout clothes and full makeup on Instagram for a few weeks so she’d have an excuse when people noticed she’d gotten butt surgery.

    • bluhare says:

      Apparently she thinks “drought” is just a silly word that doesn’t mean anything, and certainly doesn’t mean she needs to do anything about it.

  19. Amanda G says:

    She’s an absolutely beautiful girl, but a 17 year old should not be able to walk out of the house wearing an outfit like that. Obviously Kris is creating Kim 2.0 out of her so their empire can continue for another generation, but I’m sad for Kylie that she had to turn “sex pot” at 17. The plastic surgery is the most concerning, but that family is so narcissistic and vain that they probably pushed her to do it because she wasn’t good enough before. She had to have the big lips, fake ass, tiny waist, hair extensions, and bolt ons to carry on the family name… I know everyone is all about Bruce right now, but he and Kris are terrible parents.

    • minx says:

      Caitlyn Jenner may (hopefully) be a better parent going forward, because, you’re right, Bruce was a terrible one. I’m just finished the Vanity Fair article and was shocked at what a neglectful dad he was. His four older ones were fortunate to have good mothers, so they (mostly) turned out okay and are surprisingly forgiving of Bruce. But with Bruce and PMK as your parents, yikes….

      • DiamondGirl says:

        I don’t see how Caitlyn is suddenly going to become a better person than Bruce – I think there’s even more attention and self-absorption now.

        There are lots of people in that situation who are wonderful people, but Bruce never was and isn’t going to be as Caitlyn.

      • Amanda G says:

        Yes I remember Brody talking about his relationship with Bruce and it was never positive. I remember in one (of the few) Kardashian episodes I watched years ago, Bruce was trying to put his foot down in regards to Kylie or Kendall wearing makeup so young. Of course Kris and their shitty sisters rallied and the younger girls got their way. I imagine that was the beginning of the end for Bruce trying to protect those two from a life of pure vanity and narcissism.

      • minx says:

        I understand that Bruce was consumed with his gender issues; he probably could think of little else. But I don’t get why that made him such a bad parent, and then why he kept fathering children. Yes, he had split from his first wife, but he wasn’t present at Cassandra’a birth, and she was only his second child! We see the fruits of his self-absorption with Kylie.

    • jenn12 says:

      It’s great that people support Caitlyn, but she has always been a terrible parent, and so is Kris. This 17 year old has had multiple plastic surgeries, has no education, and is living the life of a 25 year old. Which isn’t surprising since the boyfriend who groomed her is 25 and has a kid. Bruce neglected his older kids, abandoned the younger ones out of deference to Kris, lack of caring, or both, and is now being applauded for her focus on herself. It’s not right. She chose to bring six kids into this world, and she needs to be a responsible parent.

  20. Jen43 says:

    She always reminds me of the Brooke Shield character in Pretty Baby whose virginity is sold to the highest bidder. I can’t shake that image.

  21. kibbles says:

    I’m in my 30s and she looks older than I. Kylie is scared of getting older but does not realize that she is in fact speeding up the ageing process by wearing many layers of makeup and going for injections and plastic surgery among whatever else she has been doing to her face and body. She just looks like a wannabe Kim rather than trying to find her own look and style. It would not surprise me at all if Kylie tries to follow in Kim’s footsteps by making a sex tape or posing nude in a few years.

    • Sassy says:

      She is too young now, but I see a future for her that includes appearing at Vegas hotel lounges for money or Vegas swimming pools for money, or the grand opening of a local car wash. She is not equipped to do much more. Yes, this is child abuse, people! The leader of the Koven, Kris does appearances at Vegas spots for money! Who would want to see this old bag while having a cocktail?

  22. AnnieC says:

    The absurdity of a teen dressed like Morticia Adams in the middle of the day to hawk $30 sexy lollipops is laughable. She’s already swirling down the drain — lost cause.

  23. dorothy says:

    Didnt you hear? She just changed her name to Kourtney Stodden 2.0

  24. dorothy says:

    Omg its a 2.0 celebration LOL I

  25. NewWester says:

    That first pic I honestly thought it was a wax mannequin of Kylie Jenner at Madame Tussaud’ s Wax Museum. She has a dead look in her eyes that is horrifying,almost as if her soul has died.

  26. Cc says:

    I always find it strange to look at Kim and Kylie, they look like plastic dolls, everything is flawless and in place, you can’t even see the skin of their faces, just the layers and layers of foundation, and the barbie doll lips, and the freakishly long fake lashes. Plus they always pose like statues and that duck face… I mean, yes, they are beautiful, and I understand that they need and want to look good, especially when there’s always someone taking their picture, selling their image and whatnot, but in my opinion it’s too much. Nothing about them looks natural. It’s disturbing to think this girl is only 17 and looks like this.

    • Vava says:

      They are not beautiful, that’s the problem. They have manipulated the press into thinking they are, and the rest of us need to ignore them. They are merely playing on publicity, that’s all this family is about.

  27. minx says:

    My daughter just turned 16. She and her friends laugh at Kylie; they think she’s a joke. I’ve seen lots of pictures my daughter has taken of her friends where they are posing and doing an exaggerated Kylie trout pout.

  28. Nicolette says:

    She looks like a hooker.

  29. The Eternal Side-Eye says:

    She’s well on her way to being totally plastic just like Kim, I wonder if she stands in the sun too long whether she starts to smell like burnt rubber.

    New photos of Rob surfaced recently, they were taken at night but even in the shadows he looks painfully obese. This family is all about dangerous extremes it’s amazing. I wonder if not for all the techniques they have now to freeze your fat and liposuction and etc. whether she’d have an eating disorder?

    • DiamondGirl says:

      Can you almost imagine that they keep Rob hidden and fattened up so they can use his fat cells? Ooh, I just scared myself a little.

      • Boxy Lady says:

        *That* is an interesting theory; it’s practically cinematic! It makes me think of fattening geese in order to get that high quality pate’.

  30. bunny love says:

    The only thing I knew about this family was Kris’s “star turn”at the trial for the murder of her “good friend” Nicole Simpson. It was a little confusing at the time beause PMK was playing musical husbands between Robert K and Bruce.When the K’s started suffocating the planet I could only speculate about how these kids a la Kimmy were raised because they were older. Now we get to see a PMK creation practically from start to finish in these younger girls and I still find it unimaginable that not only is PMK not sitting in jail like Heidi Fleis did but she is applauded and these girls are followed and admired but young women today. This is when I am grateful that my children are grown.

  31. The only thing real about this girl is the color of her scalp. Sad.

  32. lassie says:

    Does she have any age appropriate friends? All I see pictures of is her alone or with that creepy af rapist-‘boyfriend’.

  33. Moxie Remon says:

    I have mixed feelings about this. Yes, she’s too young to do all of this. Damn, i’m 20 and i don’t put all of that ‘hard work’ on my looks, but anyway, it just really upsets me that nobody in her family truly cares about her. Not even Caitlyn, who seemed like such a good parent. Actually, they all seem to take care more of their looks and money to actually care for the real and serious problems she’s going through. And Tyga? That’s the worst of this whole situation.

  34. Colette says:

    She will be in rehab before she makes it to 20.Little girl lost
    I just saw pics of Rob yesterday he is bad shape.

  35. Lisa says:

    She looks like a blow-up doll.

  36. Bess says:

    I have to wonder what this girl’s future will be like. At some point, the interest and attention surrounding the Kardashian/Jenner clan is going to die off. What is Kylie going to do with herself after that happens?

  37. DEB says:

    Horribly unflattering and inappropriate for a teenager. Her face is way beyond 17 in aging with what’s she’s already done to it. 🙁

  38. bluedog says:

    There’s something so tragic about this. What’s left for her going forward? You’re already living the life of a 25 year old… what’s it going to be like when you ARE 25? Is is still fun when you’ve been doing it for 8 years? Don’t parties and clubs get boring eventually?

    I don’t know. Maybe she’ll surprise us all. She’s still so incredibly young. Maybe she’ll wake up at 20 and decide to go to school or have a successful business venture. Although, I suppose, maybe by then she’ll have married rich?

    I kind of like the outfit itself, even though it does make her look older. While I can see why some people would have a problem with someone underage dressing like that, I personally don’t think there’s much point in making someone who will be 18 in two months suddenly start covering up NOW. If the Jenners were going to impose any sort of dress code for her, it should have started before she turned 17. It would be laughable to suddenly start now, 2 months before her 18th birthday. That’s an age where a lot of us take on this, “I’m almost grown, so I’ll do what I want whether my parents and teachers approve or not. FREEEDOM!!!” mentality. Plus, I feel like clothing is the least of Kylie’s- or her family’s- problems.

    Normally I feel that with someone who’s underage but in their late teens, whether or not a clothing/piercing/tatoo choice is deemed ‘appropriate’ should for the most part be left between the parent and the kid, so I don’t have a problem when parents let their older teens enjoy some freedom when it comes to that. But Kylie admits to having low self-esteem, she probably has a very limited education, she’s been allowed and probably encouraged to get all this plastic surgery at such a young age, she’s been taught to base so much on conforming to a beauty standard, and her parents have been allowing her to date a 24-25 year-old known predator since she was 16. None of that adds up to anything good.

      It doesn’t just make her look older, she looks like a hooker.
      Girls that age look young and fresh; she looks neither.

    Self-esteem is the ultimate goal for the Kardashians? That’s hard to fathom. Self-esteem is developed through a family or support system who loves you the way you are and encourages you to develop your natural talents (math, athletics, whatever). Teaching a young girl that she’s not good enough and must change everything about her is pretty much the opposite of building self-esteem

  41. Denise says:

    Pretty sure that’s a wig. She does not have Kim’s Armenian hair unless she’s doing a photo op.

  42. Sars says:

    I’d suggest stop covering this girl. She’s not a true celebrity – just a tabloid fixture at this point. Too young for that title, but there you have it. The more she morphs her body the more attention she gets. The less clothes she wears the more attention she gets. It also seems like she’s genuinely unhappy with her appearance what with her talks of bullying and considering all the work she’s had done…

    Just ignore it and it’ll go away.

    It is so ironic.. young girls/women work so hard to look older..than in the years to come when they get over 30 they start trying to recapture their youth and look younger.

    What is that magic age when you love yourself for who and what you are.

    1-3 is my guess

  44. rudy says:

    Kylie looks awful. At the tender young age of 17 she has already ruined her looks. Her family chunk full of body dysmorphia is obviously to blame, but yet. It is hard not to put some of this on Kylie.

    Not only is this dress unflattering, it is extremely inappropriate. And she goes even farther by placing her hand UP her thigh to raise the dress even more.

    I really really dislike this movement of dress less, look better. WE CAN TELL YOU HAVE A GOOD BODY. Stop the lingerie outfits. ALL of those Kardashes wear skintight clothes or barely there clothes. So unflattering and disrespectful.

  45. Learned One says:

    She reminds me of Cher in the 70s with the makeup, ridiculous fingernails and cut to the navel dresses….so, so sad. I feel for this kid.

  46. Lucy says:

    All of this is on no one else but the parents.

  47. ILuvQuiet says:

    Kylie Jenner is a throw away child. She’s the youngest in a long line of self absorbed, no talent having wastes of oxygen. Her parents are worthless and her older siblings (with the possible exception of Kendall…jury is still out on that one) are a hot mess; definitely not role model material.
    What we’re seeing with Kylie is what Kim would have been like had she started her ‘career’ at a younger age. By the time Kylie is Kim’s age, she will be a jaded, used up burn-out.
    It’s sad, really. Born into another family, another life, she could have become something amazing.
    What I find even more sad though is that an alarmingly huge segment of our society admire these people and strive to be like them.
    I can only hope that they somehow miraculously mature. Their ‘role models’ certainly aren’t showing any signs of doing so.
    Sad…

    I dressed like this but skankier in my teens. The difference was, when my folks caught wind, they threw out the trashy clothes. Your parents and siblings are supposed to be looking out for your best interests, not condoning all your teenage mistakes. I feel for this girl. Her family does not love her like they should.

  49. That look is very Kardashian. ‘Nuff said.

  50. I won’t go into how inappropriate her ‘morphing’ is, but write about her ‘Morticia’ look. This dress is meant for someone tall, with a long neck, it makes Kylie look thick and stumpy (no-neck) The leg pose is awkward, and shows her banged up shins. Try for the graceful look,, Kylie.

  51. Prunella says:

    My first thought is, “Whatever.” Her fate is sealed.

  52. blue banana says:

    well these are lovely sentiments about a girl! geez! who CARES!!! live and let live. If you don’t want her influencing you daughters, then make sure you talk to your daughters! End of story! Wow.

    And to those who said that Caitlyn seems like a good parent and you were surprised s/he would let kylie be like this — How so? Doesn’t it speak volumes that s/he married Kris to begin with? Plus, there are other ways to bring attention to the transgender issue than going on Vanity Fair- Caitlyn is as much of an attention hog as the rest of them, and thrives on it.

  53. Susan says:

    She has really unattractive legs. Can she get those fixed?

  54. Nikki L. says:

    Is *anything* these girls do ever age-appropriate?

  55. lulu1 says:

    Doesn’t look that those 30 dollar lollipops make you very happy…..if I was paying Kylie to sell those, I’l ask her to turn her eyes on and smile. Maybe someone forgot to change her batteries?

  56. Blythe says:

    She didn’t really have a choice but to enter this lifestyle. Poor Kylie. She’s around a bunch of enablers who keep telling her “yes”. She’s got those soulless eyes that Kim has.

  57. anon says:

    She’s trying to be Kim so hard. And I can’t even understand why

  58. krtmom says:

    If she was my daughter I’d break her legs before she walked out of the house looking like that! Sexualized and sensationalized and still a teenager. What can you expect from that family anyway?

  59. kitty-bye says:

    Very disturbing, did she get augmented ? the massive makeup caked on forehead & nose is distracting. Just makes me sad. Why would she want to morph into her sister with a baby face.
