Kylie Jenner - Page. She's the wild one. She's the black sheep, the sassy one, the cool one, my favorite .. What does it say about Kylie Jenner that every single person I know has a different and deeply held idea about who she is? What does it say about us? If we talk a bit cheekily about the Kardashian- Jenners in toto as our royal family, part of what we mean is that we are endlessly absorbed with them, irrationally interested in the minute details of their lives, and frighteningly passionate in our adoration of and judgments about them. But even within that densely concentrated family matrix of superstar personal brands, Kylie shines a bit differently—maybe even a bit more brightly. To begin with, she is utterly inscrutable. In her Instagrams and Snapchats, she is almost sex- doll sanguine, whether posed in grail- level couture clothes, next to factory- fresh sports cars, or in bed with her boyfriend, the rapper Tyga. Are we to understand her life and her looks as covetable and consumable goods on par with the rest of the items in the Calabasas Barbie kit? Or could we even be forgiven for thinking that she is satirizing our entire celebrity- industrial complex with her droll presentation of such opulence? Such is the standing of her family, and of her newly ascendant place within it, that these discussions about Kylie not only happen, but kind of, like .. When, in October, Kylie and her older sister Kendall were once again named on Time magazine's list of the world's most influential teens, she said that she was just trying to figure herself out, experimenting with herself so that she might figure out who she is and who she wants to be. In other words, Kylie may be less sure of who she is than we are. At 1. 8, she has officially been on television for almost half of her lifetime. The formative moments of life, which we might well take for granted, and experience in some sort of privacy, Kylie has performed for cameras, or . In 2. 01. 5, she launched a lifestyle app called Kylie that was projected to earn $1. Her life is just different. Whether it is fulfilling or wonderful, magical, weird, ridiculous, or what, not even Kylie seems to know. CHRIS WALLACE: Hi there. What are you up to today? KYLIE JENNER: It's cool—we're doing this surprise video for my mom's birthday—me and all of my sisters. WALLACE: Oh, fun. So is this a pretty typical day in the life? Filming with the fam? JENNER: No, it's not typical. Right now, since I started my app, I'm constantly thinking of ideas and videos to shoot. So my days are mostly filled up with that, and then, I don't know, I'm obsessed with my hometown of Calabasas, so I try to stay there as much as I can. WALLACE: I'm curious about something you said recently, about experimenting with your looks as a way to figure out who you are, who you want to be. I certainly identify with that search for identity. When did your experimenting begin? JENNER: Honestly, what I think set everything off is when I cut my hair off when I was 1. After that, I just felt so free and wanted to experiment with my look. I thought I knew who I was and what I wanted to look like, but then once I did that, I was like, . I'm still so young, so I'm just having fun. WALLACE: And do the changes come with different personalities? Are they different characters, different Kylies with each look? JENNER: No, it's all physical. I'm always the same person. WALLACE: What other experiments have you tried that you liked? JENNER: I mean, the only thing I really like changing is my hair, my makeup. I don't really think I would do anything else. WALLACE: There's nothing you would change about yourself, like if you had some magic spell? JENNER: No, not right now. WALLACE: Is there anything you would wish for if you could use that magic the other way around? I mean, a lot of people might think of you as the girl who has everything. What would you wish for if you could have anything? JENNER: What I think is so amazing about having everything, and feeling like I have everything, is that I don't really find happiness within materialistic things. Like, it's cool if I can buy myself a new car, and I think it's amazing for a week, but then the thrill is over, and I'm like, . So if I were to wish for something else, it would just to be happy all the time, to have a superpower of not letting things affect me, and to be true to who I am, always. WALLACE: Do you have some sort of practice, some sort of philosophy that can help you get there? How can we always stay in touch with that happiness, or is it that it comes along and you have to appreciate it when it does, like a sunset? JENNER: I feel like it is exactly like that. It comes along and you just have to appreciate it. But I always just try to stay sane and not read comments. I'm young and I'm a girl, so, when I post something, I want to see what people are saying or what they think of my photos. I've found it better if you don't read anything and you just always stay off that track. I'm just trying to not lose myself through this process, because I feel like I've already lost parts of me, like, my youth. WALLACE: You do feel like you missed out on a lot of stuff? JENNER: I do. I feel like I'm going to look back and be like, . You can look at anything glass- half- full or whatever. Like, yesterday I realized that I'm 1. I'm a female, and I have accomplished so much. I live in a beautiful home and I work really hard, so I'm just grateful. Do you feel a big weight with those 4. Instagram followers and all that comes with it? Does that intimidate you at all? JENNER: It intimidates me but I've just realized, like .. You know who I'm obsessed with? I'm obsessed with Lady Gaga. I saw her at the Alexander Wang fashion show after- party, and I think she's the nicest person ever. She came up to me and was like, . And I feel like that really helped me, because there's a reason why I have so many followers and why people pay so much attention to me. So I just try not to change and stay authentic. I do feel pressure when I do sexy photo shoots and stuff, or if I want to post a picture .. Because I want to be a good role model, but I also want to be me. WALLACE: Well, here we are talking about how you're experimenting to try to find yourself—and I don't mean just you, I think we all are—and then here is this thing where you can't really color too far outside of the lines, right? It's like steering a really, really big ship. You can't just make quick turns; there's a whole process to what you're posting. Do you feel limited by that, or is the platform itself totally worth it? JENNER: I feel limited in some ways because I have such young fans. But I'm okay with that; I do everything I want to do. WALLACE: How did you come to your anti- bullying Instagram campaign, #IAm. More. Than? JENNER: I feel like if I came out and just told my story about bullying, people wouldn't have sympathy—and I'm totally okay with that, because people don't need to understand; they just think I'm not a normal person and live this magical life. But I wanted to give other people who have been bullied, and who overcame it to do something amazing, the opportunity to use my platform to bring awareness, to inspire people. WALLACE: Well, I want to hear your story. You were bullied? JENNER: Yeah, pretty much ever since I was 9, since the show started, there's been so much bullying towards me. Like, every single day I see something negative about me. And it's just completely torn me apart. I feel like I've lost so many amazing traits because I've listened to stupid people, ignorant people who are bullies. WALLACE: Was it in person or online? JENNER: It was in person, too. Just friends growing up. We were all young, and I always felt like people weren't friends with me for the right reasons, and they would be like, . I had a lot of friend issues throughout the years. That took a toll, and now I have two really great best friends that are the only people I hang out with. I keep a close circle. But it doesn't affect me anymore; I'm totally fine with it. It's just when you're young, like 9, 1. It's just confusing and you don't know why people are saying mean things about you. WALLACE: I imagine that your family was in a good position to be helpful, then and now. How has your relationship to your family changed recently, as you've come into your own?
