At just 21, Kylie Jenner has just been named the youngest self-made billionaire in the world.

Now, her self-made status has been debated heavily, as many argue that she would not be in the position she is today if it wasnt for her famous family.

However, her vast wealth comes from her various independent projects, but most notable her booming cosmetics behemoth Kylie Cosmetics.

Again, you could argue that her company would not have been as successful as it was had she not already been famous or had the start up capital for the business from her reality Tv endeavours, but clearly Forbes feels that self-made is a worth title. 

While most recognise the huge achievements she has made with Kylie Cosmetics, many are pointing out that by hailing from the Kardashian-Jenner clan, it's difficult to associate her with being 'self-made.'

With the dictionary defining self-made as 'having become successful or rich by one's own efforts,' and it conjures up a came-from-nothing image of a person who started at the bottom and rose through the ranks through hard work and innovation.

Having come from a collective family net worth of $400 million dollars without Kylie's fortune added, and with the astronomical fame, could Kylie be considered 'self-made?' 

Regardless, the 21-year-old mother-of-one is now a billionaire – the first in her family to achieve said accolade and be added to Forbes annual billionaire rich list.

Kim Kardashian is the second-richest person among the Kardashian-Jenner family.

What are your V-Day plans, gals? 

For many of us, it's pretty much the usual shebang of perusing ice-cream flavours in Tesco, and wallowing on the couch while feeling guilty as a feminist for wallowing on Valentine's Day. 

Ariana Grande is turning the single life into a trend, at least that's one comforting thing. Plus our pets give us more love than we even deserve.

Meanwhile, in Billionaire Boujee-land, Kylie Jenner is prepping for a new Kylie Cosmetics launch:

She appears to have gotten a red lady makeover, and we have to admit she's looking pure Poison Ivy-level glamour; serving Jessica Rabbit realness 24/7 just became her new niche.

We're assuming that this isn't Kylie's natural hair, seeing as the Kardashians can afford wigs, extensions, photoshop, stylists, fashion designers, celebrity hairdressers, etc.

Kylie's emanating Kim's Valentine's Day vibe form 2017, because the photographer responsible for this Kylie Cosmetics shoot also shot Kim's viral candy hearts campaign in 2018.

While Kim's hairdo is a lighter shade of pastel-coloured pink, Kylie has gone all-out pillarbox red.

Which do you prefer? We're feelin' Kylie's wavy, short hair because it's Moulin Rouge vibes to the max.

She'll be releasing the new collection on February 1, stay tuned.

Kylie Jenner took to Instagram to announce that she will be gracing the cover of Forbes Magazine, for their issue on female billionaires. 

Kylie's still hyaluronically amplified pout is further pronounced by a coating of one of her famous Kylie Lip Kits – the innovation which got her on the cover in the first place. 

Described as the youngest self-made billionaire in history, it's the cool $900 million she has made from her company Kylie Cosmetics that earned her the recognition of Forbes. 

 

A post shared by Kylie (@kyliejenner) on

'Wow. i can’t believe I’m posting my very own @forbes cover. thank you for this article and the recognition,' she wrote under the post. 

'I’m so blessed to do what i love everyday. I couldn’t have dreamt this up!'

However, not everyone agrees with Kylie being described as 'self-made'

Irish man, John Collison has been named as the world's youngest self-made billionaire by Forbes magazine – an we're seriously questioning our life choices right about now.

Hailing from Limerick, the 27-year-old has earned his place among the 2,043 wealthiest entrepreneurs around the world, and with a net worth of $1.1 billion, he makes up one of just four self-made billionaires under 30.

John began to build his fortune when he was just 17-years-old, after Auctomatic, an online auction-management system he co-founded, sold for a profitable $5 million.

He then went on to study physics at Harvard University (though he did not graduate), before he and older brother, Patrick, co-founded Stripe, an online payment platform, in 2010.

So, where how did the the brothers conjure up their billion dollar idea?

According to Forbes, the brother's light bulb moment came while they were travelling in South Africa – cause y'know, you come up with all your best idea when you're on holidays.

The tech company is today worth a whopping $9.2 billion – not bad for a college drop-out, eh?

When your grandfather is one of Russia's richest men – it's no surprise that your wedding is entirely, wonderfully OTT. 

Held at London's swish Landmark hotel in Marylebone, hundreds of friends and family were on hand last Saturday to celebrate the marriage of 19-year-old heiress Irene Kogan to Daniel Kevey.

Following a traditional Jewish ceremony, guests were served a stunning nine-course meal which included the likes of yellow fin tuna, seared sea bass, roasted fillet of dry-aged beef, and a pear and pistachio bake-well. 

Then there was the spectacular 3-metre tall, ten-tier wedding cake – as created by the talented London-based Elizabeth Solaru.

DailyMail.com reports that it cost £100,000 and featured five flavours, and more than 10,000 sugar flowers. It was baked using a batter that contained some 1,000 duck eggs.

Antonio Banderas was on hand for one of the speeches, but Irene's property developer grandfather, Valery Kogan, really went all out with the entertainment: Elton John and Mariah Carey sung live while afterward Mark Ronson performed a DJ set into the early morning.

The cost for those acts alone? Around $4.25m.

The bride herself, who at one stage was dancing alongside Mariah, wore two stunning dresses from Ralph & Russo over the course of the celebrations.

Meanwhile, the flower girls opted for pale blue tulle skirts to complement the overall colour scheme. 

A giant wall of flowers, much like the one Kim and Kanye used during their 2014 Paris nuptials, was adorned with the happy couple's initials – I & D – and was in place for photographs.

The wedding was held over the weekend and in the aftermath, glamorous guests have been taking to Instagram with what amounts to a stunning set of snaps.

Indeed, if you're looking for a spot of fashion stimulus in order to plan your attire for any forthcoming Russian billionaire Big Days, take a look at the below ten #styleinspo snaps…
