Trivia

In an episode of their family program in 2015, Kylie Jenner, who had previously denied undergoing a lip augmentation, revealed to using “temporary lip fillers,” putting public speculation to rest.

She bought a $2.7 million five-bedroom property in Calabasas, California, soon before her 18th birthday in 2015. She moved in once she reached 18 years old.
