There's no doubting that Kendall Jenner is one of the shining stars in the world of celebrity.

So at this point, finding a justification for plopping her on cover of a magazine seems a tad superfluous, especially for a Vogue Australia.

She's beautiful, tall and is a Kardashian sibling. There isn't really much to explain. Yet the October issue of Vogue Australiatries to do just that, and it does so by rejecting the fact her family had any influence on her success.

"Four years ago we photographed Kendall when she was just starting out on her journey into the modeling world," Vogue Australiaeditor-in-chief, Edwina McCann said according to E! Online.

"She was a reserved and quiet teenager accompanied by her mum and manager Kris [Jenner] to the shoot here in Sydney.

"Forbes has just announced Kendall as the third highest earning model in the world and aside from the fact that she has risen to these ranks in only four years, what I most admire about Kendall is her determination and professionalism in getting there so quickly, so adamantly not using her family to get a leg up."

We'll repeat that again -- "not using her family to get a leg up." The Kardashians. The Jenners. Arguably the two most visible celebrity families in the world had zero involvement in her success whatsoever guys! Zero.

There's no problem with being in a rich and successful family, but to say that it had no influence on Kendall Jenner's ensuing success? Pretty farfetched.

To Jenner's credit, she seems pretty thankful for where she has got to in her modelling career. "I would never in a million years complain about what's been given to me. This is my dream … I'm incredibly blessed," she told Vogue Australia.
