Kylie Jenner campaign hopes to get young mogul to billionaire status
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}Kylie Jenner fans started a GoFundMe to ensure the cosmetics mogul becomes a billionaire.
Jenner is poised to become the youngest billionaire ever, Forbes reported Wednesday. The magazine estimated her current wealth at a whopping $900 million. For some, however, that’s not enough.
Comedian Josh Ostrovsky, more commonly known on the internet as The Fat Jewish, created the GoFundMe page to raise $100 million in order to help the 20-year-old reach billionaire status.

“Kylie Jenner was on the cover of Forbes Magazine today for having a net worth of 900 million dollars, which is heartbreaking,” he wrote on Instagram Thursday. “I don’t want to live in a world where Kylie Jenner doesn’t have a billion dollars. WE MUST RAISE 100 MILLION DOLLARS TO HELP HER GET TO A BILLION, PLEASE SPREAD THE WORD, THIS IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT.”
The Fat Jewish had raised a little more than $250 as of early Friday.

According to Forbes, Kylie Cosmetics sold more than $630 million in products since its 2016 launch. The company sold more than $330 million in products in 2017 alone. The company is estimated to be worth $800 million and Jenner has sole ownership of it.
The magazine received backlash after publishing the cover. Jenner was propped up to be a “self-made” billionaire, which many on social media gave Forbes backlash about.
