Kylie candidly shared on the June 20 episode of ‘The Kardashians’ that public shaming continues to weigh on her
The conversation viewers got a sneak peek of during the June 13 episode of ‘The Kardashians’ where Kylie Jenner broke down in tears with sister Kendall Jenner played out in this week’s episode.
On the June 20 episode, Kylie, 26, said to her sister, “It’s a miracle I still have confidence and can still look in the mirror and still think I’m pretty.”
The Kylie Cosmetics creator shared that after Paris Fashion Week in September, she got a lot of negative comments about her looks. She said she wanted to do a more minimal makeup look, because people tell her she wears too much, but then she’s criticized for doing too little.
“I hear nasty things about myself all the time,” she said in a confessional. “I think it’s just after 10 years of hearing about it, it just gets exhausting.”
She said she’s “so numb” to people talking about her looks all the time and wonders why “the internet” thinks it’s okay.
“We’re dehumanized in our family,” Kendall, 28, told her. “There are no rules with us. They don’t think we have any feelings.”
“I went on a journey last year dissolving half of my lip filler,” Kylie continued. “I hate even having this conversation over and over and over again. It feels like it’s a waste of my breath because I think, with me, it is never going to change.”
Kendall wrapped her younger sister up in a hug, seeing how much the criticism weighed on her.
“Like, I’ve never cried about this before, but I guess it does affect me,” Kylie admitted. “People have been talking about my looks since I was 12 or 13, before I even got lip filler.”
“I think I’m a really strong and I was put in this position for a reason,” Kylie said in a confessional. “I do think of myself as a confident person… but I’m also human and there’s only so much someone can take.”
“Our family’s been in the industry for a long time,” Kendall said consolingly. “Sadly it’s something we need to grow tough skin on.”
“I cannot let the comments get me down,” Kylie said while pulling herself together. “I’ve got s— to do.”
