When the KarJenners’ hit reality show, keeping up with the Kardashians, premiered on E! in 2007, Kylie Jenner, the youngest of the clan, was only 9 years old.
With little to say on the matter, Kylie inevitably found herself in the spotlight as the series took off, and ended up having some pretty ~memorable~ moments captured on camera.
In fact, the first seasons of KUWTK documented the trials and tribulations of Kylie’s pre-teen and teen years, from her first experiment with makeup to several awkward run-ins with her parents.
But as she got older, Kylie, perhaps unsurprisingly, began to seem increasingly uncomfortable with her family’s fame-filled lifestyle and, lo and behold, ended up claiming that she “wasn’t supposed to be famous” during a 2016 episode.
“I feel like I’ve had anxiety for too long. I feel too much, I worry too much, I read too much,” she told her older sister Kim. “Some people are born for this life and some are not. I just know I’m not supposed to be famous.”
A year later, Kylie opened up about the subject once again during a conversation with her then-best friend, Jordyn Woods, on her spin-off series, kylie life. “I don’t want my picture taken, I don’t want people to see what outfit I’m wearing,” she said. “Every time there are paparazzi I cover my face.”
And in more recent years, Kylie has continued to prove that she’s still not the biggest fan of the spotlight, as she kept the birth of her first daughter, Stormi, a secret from the world, unlike her sisters, who documented their pregnancies. and even gave birth to To keep up to date.
Now 25 and a mother of two, Kylie is a successful billionaire and business tycoon. But despite gaining newfound popularity with her appearance on TikTok, Kylie still seems uncomfortable with the spotlight.
Not only does the young star rarely attend red carpets alone, she is often accompanied by 4-year-old Stormi, but she practically never sits down for interviews without her mother, Kris Jenner, by her side.
And so, when an “awkward” clip of Kylie at Paris Fashion Week surfaced online Thursday, it wasn’t long before fans were reminded of her complicated relationship with the spotlight.
In the now viral video, which was shared by TikTok user @nettart, Kylie can be seen surrounded by a group of people, including photographers, backstage at the Balmain show.
After quickly hugging creative director Olivier Rousteing, with whom she is friends, fans said that Kylie, who was apparently only accompanied by her best friend Stassie Karanikolaou, looked “so shy” and “nervous” as she stood with her hands in front of her and looked around. .
And when the clip in question was later posted on a Reddit forum, more people agreed with the speech.
“Kylie looks so shy and introverted when she’s out of her bubble,” one person wrote, while others called the whole thing “awkward and awkward.”
But before long, fans were considering Kylie’s discomfort with the spotlight and expressing their empathy for the star.
“She has spoken about her anxiety. Totally evident in these videos,” one person wrote.
Another said: “She has been mentioned before that she doesn’t feel like she was meant to be famous. She really had no choice. Was she like 9 years old when she started the show?
“Dude, can we stop making this girl go places?” another person repeated. “Like, clearly she’s not comfortable. And she obviously has a huge effect on her mental health.”
Meanwhile, some fans said it was “refreshing” to see such a large public figure “act as awkward and awkward” as anyone else and suggested the video served as a strong reminder that Kylie is, after all, only human. .
“It’s kind of refreshing to see a famous person act as awkward and awkward as me,” one person wrote. “This makes me like it a little more, I don’t know why,” agreed another.
