The title of Kylie Jenner as the world’s “youngest self-made billionaire” is being called into question. And the company that gave her the title in the first place, Forbes, is breaking the story.
According to a new report by Forbes, the 22 year old, “has been inflating the size and success of her business for years.”
But they claim it is not just Kylie Jenner who has inflated her net worth. Forbes compared her to Donald Trump, and alleged that the family has even presented tax returns that “were likely forged” to convince the publication (and others) of their wealth.
Kylie Jenner took to Twitter shortly after the story broke to refute Forbes’ claims.
“What am I even waking up to?” she began.
“I thought this was a reputable site.. all I see are a number of inaccurate statements and unproven assumptions lol,” she continued.
“I’ve never asked for any title or tried to lie my way there EVER. period,” Kylie claimed.
Kylie also addressed Forbes’ accusations of forged taxes, tweeting,
“That’s your proof? So you just THOUGHT they were forged?”
Kylie Jenner launched her business, Kylie Cosmetics, in 2015 with a line of 15,000 ‘Lip Kits’ that instantly sold out. In 2016, Jenner publicists allegedly tried to convince Forbes that Kylie Cosmetics had brought in over $400 million in the first 18 months, with Kylie earning $250 million.
