She has also expressed an interest in acting, but has explained that college is a greater priority. Jenner announced that she hopes to pursue an acting career, saying "Right now I love designing and I want to pursue that career once I turn 18, but acting is something I would regret not giving a chance when I'm older, so I would love to try it and see if I like it, I used to do plays in school and then in my community. I would participate in all of them 'til I was 13". In August 2014, the Jenner sisters appeared in singer PartyNextDoor's "Recognize" music video. In 2011, they were featured in Seventeen magazine's Style Stars of the Year, and selected them as "Style Ambassadors" for the magazine. In 2014, the Jenner sisters co-authored science fiction novel Rebels: City of Indra with ghostwriter Maya Sloan.

Jenner has been featured on the covers of various teen, beauty and fashion magazines, including Cosmopolitan (February 2015), Teen Vogue (March 2012, May 2015), Marie Claire Mexico (March 2014), Seventeen (September 2012), Remix (March 2015), Seventeen Prom (January 2014) and Girlfriend (September 2014).

Charity

Jenner set up an eBay account where she auctions old clothing to raise money for the Children's Hospital Los Angeles. The Kardashian and Jenner sisters used eBay in this way to raise $27,682.96 for their charities in 2013. Jenner joined her family in a charity yard sale on November 10, 2013. Proceeds from the sale were donation-matched and sent to Share Our Strength: No Kid Hungry and the Greater Los Angeles Fisher House Foundation.

At the first game, she competed on actor/singer Quincy Brown's Team; while Kendall played on Chris Brown's Team Breezy. Jenner donated to the Lesbian Gay Bisexual Transgender community.

Public image

In May 2015, an episode of Keeping Up with the Kardashians premiered in which Jenner admitted to getting a lip augmentation. Her enhanced lips from lip fillers created speculation and gained her publicity. Prior to the episode's debut, Jenner stated that she merely used lip liner and over lined her lips. As a result, the practice of suctioning one's lips into a small glass in order to induce greater blood flow to swell the lips was called the "Kylie Jenner Challenge" (though there was no indication that Jenner herself employed this method). Jenner responded to this by stating, "I'm not here to try & encourage people/young girls to look like me or to think this is the way they should look."

Kylie Jenner v. Kylie Minogue

In 2014, Jenner filed a U.S. trademark application for the term "Kylie,"? seeking protection for the term in connection with advertising services. KDB, an Australian-based business representing Kylie Minogue, filed a notice of opposition to Jenner"?s application in February 2016. In court documents obtained by the New York Post's Page Six, KDB claimed approval of Jenner"?s application will confuse audiences and dilute Minogue"?s brand. The company also pointed out the fact that the Australian pop star currently owns trademark registrations for the term "Kylie"? across entertainment services and music recordings: Minogue owns trademarks for "Kylie Minogue Darling,"? "Lucky - the Kylie Minogue musical"? and "Kylie Minogue,"? and has owned Kylie.com since 1996. The documents slammed Jenner, claiming her "photographic exhibitionism"? on social media and "controversial posts have drawn criticism from, e.g., the Disability Rights and African-American communities."?

KDB also referred to Jenner as a "secondary reality television personality"? who appears on Keeping Up with the Kardashians as "supporting character"? to the Kardashians: Kim, Khlo and Kourtney.

In February 2017, Minogue won the legal battle against Jenner for name trademark.

Personal life

In February 2015, Jenner purchased a $2.7 million five-bedroom, 5.5-bath mansion in an upscale gated community in Calabasas, California. Kylie also featured a symbolized promise ring given to her by her boyfriend Tyga, using social media app, Snapchat.

Jenner is a close friend of Canadian transgendered model Gigi Gorgeous.
