When Kylie Jenner Revealed Feeling Scared Of Paparazzi & Media Harassment As A Teenager
During a November 2023 conversation with Jennifer Lawrence for Interview Magazine, Kylie shared the harassment she faced early on in her life as a teenager. She spoke about how fame changes things and stated, “It’s hard to find people who understand your life. It’s such a rare thing that we’re all going through in this business and with fame.”
She pointed out she was grateful to have her family and that having each other to lean on has been essential. She has been able to stay humble despite witnessing so much money, attention, popularity, and more due to her lifestyle and career. Kylie felt it was a challenge to break through the unwanted attention and harassment.
“With the paparazzi, it’s been tough. I’ve had some horror stories,” she told the actress. She disclosed how when she was 16 years old, she had these 50-year-old men calling her a “little slut” while clicking pictures. The 27-year-old elucidated her horrible experience with more such examples.
Kylie divulged, “Trying to shoot up my skirt and jumping out of the bushes, scaring me, blocking my car. It was worse when I was younger. But I don’t know what it would be like to grow up not in the spotlight, and that’s helped me because I have nothing to refer back to.” While the horrors were hard to face, she was also grateful for the positive side of fame.
