Background

Kendall Jenner is an American model, media personality, and socialite who is famous worldwide. Jenner was born on November 3, 1995, and her birthplace is Los Angeles, California. She is the daughter of television personality and mogul Kris Jenner and Olympic decathlon gold medalist Caitlyn Jenner (previously known as Bruce Jenner). Jenner was born into a celebrity family and has nine siblings. She is of English, Scottish, Irish, Dutch and Welsh descent. She was raised in Calabasas and attended Sierra Canyon School before transitioning to homeschool. Jenner graduated high school in 2014.

Jenner declared interest in modeling on her family’s reality T.V. show. She began modeling at 13 and signed under Wilhelmina Models in July 2009. She made her modeling debut on a Forever 21 show in December of the same year. Jenner’s portfolio has since become extensive. As a model and influencer, Jenner has worked with countless fashion houses, photographers, magazines, and products. In 2010, she got featured in a “Teen Vogue” magazine snapshot. She walked the Sherri Hill runway for Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in September 2011. After a series of collaborations with magazines like “Teen Prom,” “GenLux,” “Harper’s Bazaar Arabia,” and several others, Jenner signed with The Society Management in November 2013. With this agency, she got booked for Marc Jacobs, Givenchy, D.V.F., Tommy Hilfiger, Bottega Veneta, Dolce and Gabbana, Balmain, Fendi, and Chanel. However, she only started walking the runway for these brands two years later. In 2015, she debuted at number 16 on “Forbes” magazine’s list of top-earning models.

From designer brands to drugstores, Jenner has done it all. She also has a long list of affiliate ventures. Jenner is highly versatile as proven by her collaboration with her sister’s Kylie Cosmetics brand and Glu Mobile for a mobile game. She launched her tequila company, 818, in May 2021. Although the supermodel grew up in the public eye, she shares snippets of her private life from time to time. Jenner is currently dating N.B.A. player Devin Booker, and the couple has been together since June 2020.
