Kylie Jenner attacked by cruel trolls over ‘aging’ look after breaking down about online criticism
Kylie Jenner was revealed as British Vogue's cover star yesterday (13 August) and while many fans are squealing over how good she looks, others have jumped at the chance to criticise her looks.
The reality TV star and Kylie Cosmetics founder has been open about how online criticism makes her feel in various episodes of The Kardashians.
In June, 27-year-old Jenner broke down in tears when talking to her sister, Kendall Jenner, about seeing comments online that say she looks 'old'
She said: "I went on a journey last year dissolving half my lip filler. Why do people think it's OK to talk about me? I've never cried about this before, but I guess it does affect me."

She also addressed comments that say she 'f***ed up' her face, saying: "Even if I did get so much surgery, I still don't think it's OK to talk about someone's looks.
"Before I even got lip filler, people talked about my looks. It's so hurtful."
It seems some people haven't learned their lesson, with some critiques of Jenner's looks going viral on social media.
One user posted a photo of her Vogue cover and wrote alongside it: "Sorry but she absolutely looks 60 years old. Like this is Susan Lucci as far as I’m concerned. This is a desperate housewife, she’s lived on Wisteria Lane since 1967."
He then followed it up with: "So insane that so many of these injectors are only JUST being honest about filler migration. It’s terrible for you and it looks BAD."
The post attracted a flurry of similar criticisms from social media users.
One person said: "Early 40s.. she did this to herself."
Another added: "Just does look old. It’s not hot or flattering even."
Jenner is the first member of the Kardashian-Jenner family to appear on the cover of British Vogue, and it's easy to imagine that these kind of comments will dull an otherwise incredible moment.
Jenner told Vogue upon learning that fact: "I cried. Because it’s been a dream of mine. It was amazing – the whole day was perfect.”
Other social media users leapt to the star's defence.
One person wrote: "First of all, I think if people stopped criticising her appearance so much she wouldn’t feel the need for all that filler, and second of all, wtf are you talking about she looks amazing?! How about we all give the girl a break?? What is it to you anyway???"
Another said: "Social media has yall thinking the people you see online are not actual human beings. Yall are cruel to people, then turn around and shame them for getting work done."
