Kim Kardashian has spent her entire adult life in the spotlight. But as a child, fame and attention wasn’t something a young Kim had to deal with.
The same can’t be said for Kim’s younger sisters – Kendall and Kylie Jenner – who have had their lives play out in front of the cameras since they were just kids.
As our Kim Kardashian exclusive continues, Billy Bush talked to Kim about whether she had any concerns for her sisters when it comes to knowing what “normal” life is like.

“You went to school. You went to gym class. You had some of those experiences. Does part of you have concern for the fact that the girls are kind of just born right into it?” Billy asked Kim.
“I think that is just their reality,” Kim told Billy. “But they know when things are normal. They know that all their friends aren’t going on private jets. They know that they are growing up with a life of privilege, but they are super grounded and responsible.”

For 17-year-old Kylie, Kim said often times people question the fun-filled life she portrays on social media.
“She talks about this all the time herself – she’s always with her friends and having fun and people would question, ‘Are you going to school?’ She goes to school. She’s home-schooled. She has a year left. She goes to school every single day,” Kim explained. “So perception can be reality and people assume maybe she’s not in school because she’s not posting about being in school all the time.”
Kylie also recently came under fire after confessing to using lip fillers – something Kim has defended.
“I saw how for so many years she was so insecure about it. I mean, at 10 years old, she would say to me, ‘How come my lips aren’t big like you guys’?’ And I would see this insecurity… For me, I gave her advice and I still stand by that advice. I think it changed her confidence so much.”

However, Kim admits there is such a thing as too much.
“I think there are limits and there are boundaries, for sure. I think that you have to know the difference. She did something that made her feel better about herself and that’s kind of where you have to draw the line, and she knows that,” Kim explained. “She doesn’t have a desire to do anything else.
“I’m totally okay with that because I know that’s where it stops for her,” she added.
