Kylie Jenner, Kris Jenner and little Stormi Webster cover the latest issue (July/August) of Harper’s Bazaar Arabia. I knew that the Kardashian-Jenner clan is popular in a lot of Middle Eastern countries, but this photoshoot and cover interview really confirms it for me. The publication is SO nice to Kylie and Kris and they were so pleased that Kylie suddenly included Stormi in the shoot. It wasn’t supposed to be a three-generation cover, but that’s what it became. Stormi looks like “what are we doing again?” She’s a pretty baby though. Anyway, the interview is really ass-kissy, and you can read the full piece here. Some highlights:
Kylie on motherhood: “When I became a mother, my perspective on life completely changed, and so did how I look at my own mum and appreciate all the things that she’s done for me. Now I can understand the way that she feels about me, the way that she loves me, and how strong her love is for all her kids, because of how obsessed I am with Stormi.”
Kris on her relationship with Kylie: “We’ve always been very connected emotionally and spiritually and have this incredibly strong bond. But I think as we both get older, our relationship shifts a bit. And for me, I just want her to know that I’m always here to guide her and help her with whatever she needs, rather than it always being, you know, the way it used to be back in the day. Our relationship changes every few years.”
Kylie doesn’t do it for the money: “I don’t really do it to make money or think that far into the future if this is going to be super-successful. I just knew my talents and was passionate about make-up and lips and lipsticks. It’s been a real love of mine for as long as I can remember. I never even knew that you can really turn your passion into a business, you know. I just followed my heart and went with how I felt. Now I just feel so blessed every day to wake up, have fun doing what I love and make a career out of it. It’s amazing!”
Kylie on fame: “Honestly, I don’t remember a time when I did have privacy because we started our show when I was 9 years old. I feel like I just grew up in it and so I figured out a way of living that is comfortable for me. Of course, there are times when you feel like your privacy is invaded. But I feel like I’ve learned how to pull back when I need to. I love my fans and we have such a strong relationship. I do love sharing and inspiring and bringing people into my life. I feel like I was definitely made to do what I do.”
Kylie on empowerment: “I really believe in female empowerment, but I want to inspire all people – no matter what age or gender – that you can succeed. I love inspiring people to start working a lot harder at a young age. Follow your dreams, you’re never too young. Mentally, for me, I try not to focus so much on being a role model and still be myself. But I do understand how many young women look up to me and that I have to think about everything that I put on the internet, or what example I want to set for my daughter. Especially now that I’ve had her, I think about that a lot more.”
I remember, for years, believing that Kendall and Kylie would have been better off being raised by wolves. It just felt like Kris didn’t care much about them, especially not when Kris was too busy “managing” the Kardashian sisters. But Kendall and Kylie got older and that’s when they got “more interesting” to Kris, because she could manage them too, and help build their careers. I’d also like to say… even though I still think Kylie was way too young to become a mother, she’s SO much happier now. She seems to worry less, and have more self-confidence.

WAYYY too many Kardashian posts today BOO DISlIKE
I don’t think she was too young to be a mother. She was wealthy and wanted a baby and has time to raise her. I had my children when I was in my 30’s, but mostly because I wanted to be financially secure so I could stay at home. If I was rich I probably would have had them much earlier, so much easier on your body and fun to have the extra energy of youth raising them.
She seems so much happier with her baby. This family gets on my nerves, but I love to see moms loving having children.
“Worrying” LESS after having a child? That can’t be right.
When you can afford to hire an entire staff to look after your baby and your life had no purpose before, I can see worrying less. To us plebs it’s quite the opposite, obviously.
Yeah but any parent must surely still worry about their child even if that child is with a nanny. At least I would. Are you telling me you don’t think Kylie doesn’t worry when her child gets sick? Kylie doesn’t seem that cold hearted to me.
There really aren’t enough accurate descriptors that encapsulate this family. It takes a few because the bewilderment occurs on different levels which, believe it or not, is hard to do. It’s a kind of frightening depth which has nothing to do with gravity lmao.
Those covers are pretty bad ass.
I know, I kind of like how they look…click out of here right now! haha
I love the first cover minus Kris. 😉
I think they’re badass too. Best I’ve seen in a long time from that clan.
I’ll say something nice for a change: I’ve always found Kylie to be very photogenic and a much, much better model than Kendall. I actually wouldn’t mind Kylie as a nepo model, tbh.
I agree, she has a body language that is quite striking and unique, unlike her sister who simply is tall and thin.
I don’t think becoming a mother made Jenner happy. What made her more relaxed was having her own place in the Kardashian-Jenner narcissistic machine, with her own plastic surgeries, her business and her own man. Being a mother is part of the Kardashian-Jenner brand at this point, so they can become the next generation Pimp Mama Kris.
I have nothing against them, but there are other people in the world. not every cover or article should be about that family.
It’s hard for me to avoid clicking when it’s gonna be a pic of the babes. My aging self misses cuddling a baby. Stormi is gorgeous 💕
I don’t know. I have had two kids and will NOT have any more ever again. To pop out 6 or 7 kids like Kris has… and despite all the money she has… that takes a certain mind frame. I’m not making a statement on her mothering skills, I don’t know enough about the woman, but the physical toll of having that many kids alone makes it not for the faint of heart. I believe she very much wanted her kids and must love being a mother in some capacity beyond them being money makers.
These covers are so bizarre, is there a reason why Kylie is on the floor? Weird.
I think so too. All I can think is- money does not buy you class.
I cannot stand Pimp Mama Kris. She has done a terrible disservice to her children and she is so desperate to be famous *on her own* and always has been. If you’ve seen the music video Robert paid for “My Friends”, you’ll know what I’m talking about. If you see pictures of Kris’s sister you’ll know what Kris would look like without thousands and thousands of dollar of plastic surgery. Yeah, they have money – but what else?
Am I the only one who thinks Kris looks kind of cartoon-characterish with those glasses? I’m getting a Cruella de Vil vibe, but instead of dalmation puppies, it’s baby leopards All she needs is the cigarette holder and the evil laugh.
The K’s launder money for the Saudis, most likely. The sex image selling distracts everyone from noticing.
