Nothing to hide. Kylie Jenner was called out by social media users who thought she was trying too hard to be relatable — but she swiftly brushed off the criticism.
The Life of Kylie alum, 25, recently uploaded a TikTok of herself discussing one of her new Kylie Cosmetics lip blushes. In the clip, Jenner sits in the front seat of her car and lets out a small scream when she clumsily drops her phone. She goes on to apply the product while filming in the vehicle.
Viewers were quick to chime in with their opinions in the comments, with some simply expressing their excitement for the new makeup line. Others, however, claimed the reality star was attempting to film like an everyday content creator, many of whom share footage from their cars during lunch breaks or while running errands.
One user shared a more in-depth take on the “curated” social media upload. “Like, this is something Emma Chamberlain would post,” the fan, who goes by @plasticchandler on TikTok, said in a stitched reaction post. “And I just think it’s interesting because, it’s like, you’re a billionaire, girl — why are you reviewing lip kits in your car when you live in a multi-million dollar home?”
He continued: “You didn’t just go to the store and pick that up, you didn’t get home from somewhere and get it from your mailbox. That was very deliberate of going to your car to film that, and the phone drop was kind of cringey. … This is not something Kylie Jenner does on the normal, I promise she doesn’t just sit in her car.”
While some commenters agreed with Chandler’s argument, Jenner joined the conversation and defended her behavior. “It’s really not that deep or calculated,” she wrote. “This video took me 5 mins to make. And yes I still drive and do normal things
