Kendall Jenner, the illustrious model and reality TV star, recently opened up about various aspects of her life in a candid interview with Vogue. From navigating the challenges of the modeling industry to grappling with personal struggles, Kendall’s insights shed light on her journey and the complexities of fame.
Addressing skeptics of her modeling career, Kendall shared her experience of overcoming doubts. “I think they didn’t believe in me when I came into the industry,” she revealed. “But I always say, I like being a pleasant surprise. I like that motivation in a way.” Despite facing criticism, Kendall embraces the ever-shifting landscape of fashion, finding inspiration in defying expectations.
Reflecting on advice from her sister Khloe Kardashian, Kendall delved into the impact of negative comments on social media. “She said to me, ‘You’ll scroll through comments and you’ll see a kajillion I love you’s… But why do we fixate on these? Are they a projection of our own insecurities?'” Kendall pondered. Acknowledging the challenge of maintaining self-worth amidst online scrutiny, she emphasized the importance of therapy in navigating her journey.
When discussing her reality TV career, Kendall admitted to feeling uncomfortable in front of the cameras. “It’s not my biggest cup of tea,” she confessed. “And to be honest, I’ve never been very comfortable filming.” Despite her reservations, Kendall continues to navigate the demands of reality television, balancing her public persona with her private life.
Opening up about her mental health, Kendall revealed her struggles with negative thinking and anxiety. “I’m a negative thinker. That’s my problem,” she admitted. “I’m always worrying about something that may never happen.” Candidly discussing her current state of mind, Kendall acknowledged feeling emotionally drained and anxious in recent months. “I’m not going to sit here and act like everything’s perfect,” she affirmed. “That’s life.”
Exploring the reasons behind her current struggles, Kendall attributed her stress and anxiety to personal challenges and transitions. “Let’s just say it’s personal-life-journey stuff,” she shared. “I’m a stressor and a control freak by nature.” Embracing the process of self-discovery and growth, Kendall viewed her emotional turmoil as a necessary step towards maturity. “I’m so tired emotionally, but I think it’s good,” she reflected. “It’s almost like I’m purging something for my 30s.”
Despite the complexities of her personal journey, Kendall remains hopeful about the future, expressing her desire for meaningful relationships and a family of her own. “Relationships mean so much to me,” she confessed. “I do like being a little bit removed, but one day I’ll make my way, probably.” As she navigates the uncertainties of adulthood, Kendall finds solace in embracing the freedom of her youth while remaining open to the possibilities that lie ahead.
