Kendall and Kylie Jenner are Kris Jenner’s youngest at 16 and 14. (This interview incorrectly lists their ages as 16 and 15. Kylie was born in 1997 so that’s not correct.) The two youngest Jenners/Kardashians have been showing up on red carpets for events and premieres looking very much like their older sisters, down to the heavy makeup, long hair extensions, high heels and short skirts. Kendall, who works as a model, just got a $90,000 Range Rover for her 16th birthday.
In a new interview with Celebuzz, Kendall and Kylie talk about their media careers and how they enjoy going to school still because it keeps them grounded. It would be a nice sentiment if they didn’t make school seem like this foreign land that they enjoy visiting occasionally. Out of all of Kris Jenner’s children, only Rob Kardashian and Kourtney Kardashian have gone to college. Both of them graduated with bachelors degrees.
Here’s part of their new interview. Celebuzz talked to the sisters at the Style Awards, where they picked up an award for “Stylish Sisters.” I’m honestly wondering if they waived an appearance fee for that.
Have you been driving your new Range Rover all day?
Kendall: Yes! I did drive it a little bit with my dad today. It’s such a nice car, I can’t get over it. I still don’t even feel like it’s my car though! Like, I get in it and I feel like it’s my mom’s friend’s car.
Kylie: I don’t even feel like it’s her car!
Kendall: Today, [Kylie] is like where is my computer? I was like, I think it’s in my car — wait my car? That doesn’t even sound right.
Did you know you were getting a car?
Kendall: No, it was a total surprise!
Kylie: I was in on it! I knew for a while.
Did you just drop some hints to your parents? Or steer them in the direction of a Range Rover?
Kendall: I knew I wanted a Range Rover, but I seriously did not think I would get one! I had no idea that was going to happen. I went and looked at different cars as well, my dad took me to a bunch of places. I just never expected that, I thought there is no way that is going to happen. Then it did! I was so excited, I cried!
You girls are very grounded for being so famous. Is it hard to balance this red carpet life with being just normal 16 and 15 [sic] year old girls?
Kylie: We go to school, so that helps a lot.
Kendall: School definitely helps, it really does.
Kylie: If we didn’t go to school it would be hard, but school brings us back.
Kendall: And we love going to school! We really do. We love being able to have that aspect still in our lives. It’s like being Hannah Montana and living two lives! We love it, and we love being able to have our friends. It is a little weird sometimes, especially when they come up to us, like our friends at school don’t expect us to be like that.
Kylie: At all
Kendall: They just think of us as normal kids because we’ve known them since kindergarten.
Kylie: They don’t know this side of everything.
So what is next for you girls outside of school? Will we see you model together again anytime soon? Or are you going to keep going solo Kendall?
Kendall: I’ve been solo, so I’m staying solo. We’ve done some fun shoots together, but it’s never going to be a set thing [modeling together].

As for school they “love being able to have that aspect still in our lives.” I guess Kendall, at 16, sees other models who have dropped out or are homeschooled, and it sounds like she realizes her time at school is limited and just about up. I hope their mom honors their love of school and encourages them to continue with their educations, but you know Kris Jenner. If there’s money and headlines to be made that will take precedence. Plus now that the shelf life for Kim et al. is just about up, Kris is going to pull out these two as her trump card.
Here are Kylie and Kendall at the premiere of Breaking Dawn, Part 1 last night. We’ll be covering the other premiere photos shortly. I was going to say that you can see 14 year-old Kendall’s bra, but that’s just a bizarre bra-like detail of her shirt.

I love the guy who’s photobombing them!


And here they are at the Style Awards on Sunday night.
