Former Keeping Up with the Kardashians star Kylie Jenner is worth $900m (\u00a3680m) at just 20 years of age, says Forbes.<\/p>\nFormer Keeping Up with the Kardashians star Kylie Jenner is worth $900m (\u00a3680m) at just 20 years of age, says Forbes.<\/p>\n
The business magazine said the social media star is on track to become “the youngest-ever self-made billionaire”.<\/p>\n
The fashion guru, the youngest of the Kardashian clan, launched a cosmetics firm two years ago.<\/p>\n
By comparison her half-sister, Kim Kardashian West, 37, has to scrape by on a measly net worth of $350m.<\/p>\n
Jenner, who is currently not old enough even to legally drink alcohol in the US, will turn 21 in August as her Forbes cover edition hits newsstands.<\/p>\n
“What her half-sister Kim Kardashian West did for booty, Jenner has done for full lips,” Forbes writes, describing her famous pout.<\/p>\n
Earlier this week Jenner, a mother of one daughter named Stormi, announced she would stop receiving lip injections, known as dermal fillers.<\/p>\n
Jenner admitted during an episode of Keeping Up With The Kardashians in 2015 that her natural lips had been “an insecurity” that she wanted to change with temporary lip fillers.<\/p>\n
She later launched her brand Kylie Cosmetics, which included a line of lip products designed to help customers make their lips look bigger through over-lining and filling.<\/p>\n
Her surgically enhanced style has spawned a trend, plastic surgeons say, with more women requesting fuller lips.<\/p>\n
Jenner's company, which she wholly owns, is worth $800m, according to Forbes.<\/p>\n
She is number 27 on Forbe's list of richest self-made women in America, leap-frogging Barbra Streisand ($400m), Beyonce Knowles ($335m) and Taylor Swift ($320m).<\/p>\n

Jenner is on track to become a billionaire earlier than Mark Zuckerberg, the founder of Facebook, who achieved that status at age 23.<\/p>\n
Evan Spiegel, the owner of Snapchat, also became a billionaire in his early 20s, but it is unclear exactly when he met that goal.<\/p>\n
“wow. i can't believe I'm posting my very own @forbes cover,” she wrote to her 110m Instagram followers on Wednesday.<\/p>\n
“thank you for this article and the recognition. I'm so blessed to do what i love everyday. i couldn't have dreamt this up!”<\/p>\n
Dictionary.com tweeted about the Forbes piece: “Self-made means having succeeded in life unaided.”<\/p>\n
Jenner first rose to fame at the age of 10 when she appeared with her family on their eponymous reality show.<\/p>\n
On social media, several users scoffed at Forbes' use of the term “self-made”, pointing out that Jenner's parents were already wealthy and famous.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
