Kylie Jenner channels plastic doll vibes for Interview magazine
The Keeping Up With the Kardashians star, 18, poses with the gold wheelchair while wearing S&M-inspired clothing and accessories, as she stares off into space in the photos, which were released on Tuesday, Dec. 1.
Kris Jenner might be OK with Kim Kardashian getting her bum out for a magazine shoot, but it’s not the case for her youngest daughter Kylie. “I think she’s literally being objectified made to look like a sex doll, and this wheelchair is an added element of passivity they’re adding on”, Beitks said.
Jenner tells show host Ellen DeGeneres in the video below that she created “I Am More Than” as an Instagram anti-bullying campaign following her own experience of being bullied. “But it doesn’t affect me anymore; I’m totally fine with it”. “She came up to me and was like, “I think you’re so unbelievable, and whatever you’re doing, people are just obsessed with it”, and she basically told me to not change”. Ever” to the less favourable “No one wants to see this’.
“Having a non-disabled person in a wheelchair, as a provocative fashion prop, will offend many disabled people”. They are just part of her public persona. “I feel like I’ve lost so many wonderful traits because I’ve listened to stupid people, ignorant people who are bullies”.
Despite her first lipgloss range, Lip Kit by Kylie, selling out in mere minutes earlier this week, and rarely being seen without a full face of slap, she claims she prefers a low-key look and wouldn’t go to any effort if she wasn’t famous.
I feel like it’s much better to live life in the moment.
‘The sexy photos are just Kylie saying: “Hey, this was really creative, and this was how I was feeling this day and isn’t it cool”.
“I feel like I’m way too young to wear such heavy make-up all the time”.
“Oh I see! When I’m in my wheelchair noone can look me in the eye but when Kylie Jenner sits in a wheelchair it’s FASHION”.
Needless to say, she’s got people talking… and has gotten a lot of flack already for modelling in a wheelchair.
“I wake up every morning with the worst anxiety”, the 18-year-old admitted in the magazine’s December/January issue.
