KYLIE JENNER
At age 21, the reality TV star and makeup guru Kylie Jenner is the world's youngest billionaire, accord- ing to Forbes.
The magazine on Tuesday released its annual ranking of the planet's richest people for 2019, announcing that Jenner not only made the billionaires' list for the first time but is the world's youngest billionaire as well as the "youngest self-made billionaire of all time."
The youngest of the fa- mous Kardashian-Jen- ner family ranked at number 2,057 on the list of 2,153.
Forbes credited Jenner's billionaire status to the suc- cess of her makeup com- pany, Kylie Cosmetics, which she founded in 2015 with the sale of the wildly popular lip kits — a set which included liquid lip- sticks and matching lip liner.
Jenner, whose net worth is $1 billion, expanded the line to include a range of cosmetics such as blush, highlighter, concealers, and eyeshadow palettes. She also launched makeup collabora- tions with her sisters Khloe Kardashian and Kim Kardashian West, whose net worth is $350 million, according to a 2018 ranking by Forbes.
Thanks to earnings made from being in the public eye for more than a decade and the creation of her own cos- metics company, KKW Beauty, Kim Kardashian West is the second-richest person among the Kar- dashian-Jenner clan.
In 2018, Kylie Cosmetics raked in an estimated $360 million, according to Forbes. The company is said to be worth at least $900 million, with Jenner owning 100 percent stake.

However, four years passed between the release of 2012’s Unapologetic and Ri- hanna’s latest, 2016’s Anti. There has been no official word yet about when her next album might drop, but over the weekend, some fans had reason to believe that the Anti follow-up had arrived: An illegitimate album titled

Rihanna songs, some of which were previously un- heard, found its way onto Apple Music. The album re- portedly debuted at No. 67 on the Worldwide iTunes Album chart, but it has since been taken down.
Now, Rihanna has of- fered a response to the news. A fan DM’d the singer with a screenshot of the album on Apple Music and wrote, “What’s with this mess Rih? Get their *ss to jail asap.” To that, Rihanna responded simply, “Sh*ts crazy.”
