Reality star Kylie Jenner's TikTok highlights from her trip to Target are under fire by The Kardashians fans who think the video was damage control to ease backlash over her private jet post. Kylie has been at the center of criticism after posting a photo showing off her and Travis Scott's pair of private jets. With the post coming amid rising inflation rates, many onlookers took issue with Kylie flexing her wealth on social media. It's not the first time a KarJenner has been accused of a tone-deaf post.
The famous family often faces heat for showing off their lavish lifestyles during trying times. Kim Kardashian faced backlash when she flew her family and loved ones on a jumbo private jet during lockdown to celebrate her 40th birthday. Considering the current economic crisis, many took offense by Kylie posting a black and white photo showing her and Travis standing in front of two jumbo jets. She added a caption suggesting they have the option to take either one. But fans blasted Kylie for posting what they called a tone-deaf photo as the nation prepares for a possible recession.
After posting the photo, Celebrity Jets revealed that Kylie hopped on her jet for a short 17-minute flight. Amid news of the short trip, Kylie is being labeled a "climate criminal." But in a subtle response to her tone-deaf quips, Kylie shared a TikTok video showing her "surprise" visit to Target with her daughter Stormi Webster and nieces Chicago West and True Thompson. But fans were quick to accuse Kylie of trying to come off as a "middle class" amid criticism over her private jet post. "Playing normal life simulator," one user wrote in response to the video. "Did you take the private jet here too?" asked someone else.
Kylie still has the private jet post on her page. It's among the latest of a series of photos Kylie shared teasing how well things are going for her and Travis since welcoming their son in February. It's no secret how rich and successful Kylie is. As the youngest of the KarJenner clan, Kylie had the privilege of growing up wealthy and in the public eye. Despite having her Forbes title of "youngest self-made billionaire" snatched, Kylie still acquired a $600 million net worth through her fame and business success. A short private jet ride is like chump change to the 24-year-old mother of two.
Taking the photo down would only appease the nonstop critics of The Kardashians family. Kylie knows firsthand how vicious social media critics can be against her family. By leaving the post up, Kylie is seemingly sending the message that she's unbothered by the claims of being tone-deaf. Kylie can't help that she doesn't live in poverty and can take five-minute plane rides to the other side of town. It likely won't be the last private jet post fans see from the beauty mogul.
The Kardashians season 2 premieres September 22 on Hulu.
