Kylie Jenner just got her first topless magazine cover.

“I’m comfortable with my body, but not that comfortable. I’m not going to be walking around like that with a bunch of guys there.”

Jenner talked about the double edged sword fame is. On one hand, several doors have been opened to her on account of who she is – businesses she has tried her hands at have been incredibly successful but on the other hand she feels like she doesn’t really get to live her life and all her mistakes serve as news for the tabloids

“It’s definitely easier for me than for most people,” she says. “There are so many doors that I’ve walked through. I’m happy. But everything that comes with it—the paparazzi and not being able to do normal things? I’ve been famous for what feels like my whole life. I just want to know what it feels like not to be.”

Jenner talks about the motivation behind her lip injections – which she denied for a long time and why she chose to be secretive about altering her looks.

“It has been an insecurity of mine all my life. This guy I kissed was like, ‘Your lips are really small but you’re a really good kisser. I didn’t think you were gonna be good at kissing,’” she says to the magazine “It was so rude. From then on, I just felt like I saw guys staring at my lips. I felt like no one wanted to kiss me.”





“What if I came out and said, ‘Oh, yeah, I got my lips done’? What are all those moms going to think about me? These kids, my fans, they’re going to think I’m crazy. I didn’t want to be a bad influence. I didn’t want people to think you had to get your lips done to feel good about yourself. But they thought it was crazier that I was lying about it because it was so obvious. I wish I had just been honest and upfront.”

She went on to admit that she may have gone a little overboard with the injections “When you first get them done, you’re like, ‘Oh, it could be a little bit bigger on that side.’ I’d go back and be like, ‘They went down’ and think they could be bigger. But I went too far. It was very painful.”




She also talks about her relationship with Tyga whom she started seeing when she was 17 and how most people were not supportive of their relationship.
"The first year we started hanging out, everyone around him told him not to be with me. I still get comments like, ‘Don’t be with him.’ But we’re not doing it for the public—we love each other. We need to be together at all times. We never get mad at each other, we just figure things out.”
