Kylie Jenner insists 'people don't know the half of anything' as she responds to criticism about herself in candid new interview
She's one of the most famous people in the world, living her life through a camera lens on her family reality show, while 393 million fans follow her every move on Instagram.
But despite being in the spotlight 24/7, Kylie Jenner has insisted that 'people don't know the half of anything' as she responds to criticism about herself in a candid new interview.
As part of the famous Kardashian-Jenner clan, the make-up mogul, 27, attracts her fair share of comments and criticism from followers and naysayers alike, but instead of letting things get her down, Kylie brushes off the negatively.
Speaking to Dazed, the stunner remarked: 'Ninety per cent of the time, whether it's negative or positive, people just don't know the half of anything. So it's hard to take advice from people who don't know you.'
The star takes a similar approach when asked if she feels she's judged too harshly, noting: 'I honestly think I'm so used to it, and I just don't really care what people say. Also, you know, other people's opinions of me have never affected my personal life, how my friends view me, how my kids view me, how my family views me, or the success of my business.'

And while she claims she doesn't care about what others think of her, Kylie did admit that she sometimes could resist taking a peek at articles about herself, remarking that it's not something she can 'completely avoid'.
She added that she's 'not afraid' of the headlines and has instead found 'peace with it' amid her immense fame.
Indeed, while she can't help what is said about her, Kylie went on to note that she's managing to keep her private and public life 'balanced'.
The mother-of two who is in a high profile relationship with actor Timothée Chalamet shared: 'I think I've found a good balance with sharing the things that I want to share. Keeping parts of my personal life private. I'm just learning as I go, I think.'
Kylie's words about privacy comes after she made a surprising revelation about her and her boyfriend Timothée's sex life.
This followed their PDA-filled courtside date cheering on the New York Knicks at game five of the Eastern Conference Finals on Thursday night.
In an innocuous social media repost, she seemingly revealed an intimate detail about her and her beau's love life.
Shortly after the game, the reality TV personality reposted a TikTok clip from Sex and the City about 'getting laid' during basketball season.

The hilarious snippet showed Carrie asking: 'And when did we start caring about basketball?'
Then, an exasperated Samantha replies: 'Don is obsessed. I don't get laid unless the Knicks win.'
Fans flooded the comments section with laughing and crying emojis as they lauded Jenner for the 'funny' repost.
'The fact that Kylie reposted this,' one TikTok user commented. Another added: 'Kylie reposting this is GOLD, she's so funny!!!!'
'Timmy has my girl Kylie stressing with this Knicks game fr,' one person commented while another wrote, 'I am LIVING for Kylie reposting this.'

Jenner has been dating the A Complete Unknown actor, 29, for over two years.
They were first romantically linked in early 2023 and confirmed their relationship with a PDA-filled appearance at Beyoncé's Renaissance show in Los Angeles later that same year.
This past year, Jenner joined Chalamet on the awards circuit, supporting him at a number of ceremonies after his Oscar-nominated performance in his Bob Dylan biopic.
Despite their many public appearances, The Kardashians star — who shares daughter Stormi, seven, and son Aire, three, with ex Travis Scott — and her beau only recently made their red carpet debut together at the David Di Donatello ceremony in Rome, Italy.

Stakes are high for US democracy as conservative supreme court hears raft of cases
A year has proved to be a long time on the scales of US justice. Less than 12 months ago, the US supreme court was in serious disrepute among liberals following a series of ethics scandals and a spate of highly contentious, conservative-leaning rulings. It culminated in a ruling last July vastly expanding a president's immunity from prosecution, virtually guaranteeing that Donald Trump would escape criminal censure for the 6 January 2021 insurrection and retaining classified documents. So far had the court's stock with Democrats fallen, that Joe Biden called for radical reforms on how the court was run and a constitutional amendment asserting that no president was above the law or immune for crimes committed in office. Now, with a re-elected and vengeful Trump having run rampant over democratic norms by issuing a fusillade of often illegal and unconstitutional executive orders, the same court – with the same nine justices on the bench – is being cast in the unlikely role of potential saviour of American democracy. Critics who once derided the judicial consequences of the court's six-three conservative majority hope that the justices will show enough fealty to the US constitution to mitigate the effect of Trump's all-out assault on a range of rights, from birthright citizenship to basic due process appeals against deportation, and preserve the constitutional republic's defining contours. 'The court is certainly a very important institution at this moment since Congress is completely pliant and not asserting its own prerogatives and the executive branch doesn't seem to be guided by any internal legal constraint,' said Jamal Greene, a law professor at Columbia University and a former high-ranking justice department official in the Biden administration. The court has already adjudicated in several high-profile cases since Trump's return – notably ruling against the administration in ordering it to 'facilitate' the return of Kilmar Ábrego García, a Maryland resident wrongly deported to El Salvador. But it has ruled in Trump's favour, at least temporarily, in several others. The stakes are about to be raised further still as a spate of cases arising from rulings against the administration by lower judges awaits the supreme court's final say before its current term ends this month. These include: the rights of lower courts to issue injunctions against Trump's efforts to restrict birthright citizenship, which is guaranteed in the constitution; an attempt by Tennessee to ban or limit transgender care for minors; a complaint by parents in Maryland against allowing LGBTQ+ books in elementary schools; the need for insurers to cover preventive healthcare costs under the Affordable Care Act; and attempts to cut off public funding for Planned Parenthood. Added to that daunting schedule, the justices can expect additional unaccustomed summer workload in the shape of seemingly unending emergency cases wrought by Trump's no-holds-barred attempt to transform government. Most experts believe the court will ultimately rule against Trump's attempt to undermine birthright citizenship rights, given that they are so clearly defined in article 14 of the constitution. Yet the devil may be in the detail. Some analysts believe the court has already lent the administration's case unwarranted credibility by agreeing to consider its challenge against lower courts' powers to issue nationwide injunctions on the subject. Perhaps tellingly, the court has not called for a supplemental briefing on whether Trump's 20 January executive order was legal. Hopes that the current court can act as a brake on Trump seem forlorn given its conservative majority and the fact that three of its members – Neil Gorsuch, Brett Kavanaugh and Amy Coney Barrett – were appointed to the bench by Trump himself. In addition, justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito consistently take hardline positions that seem predisposed to favour Trump. Yet speculation that the chief justice, John Roberts, and Coney Barrett have become disenchanted by the brazenness of Trump's actions has fueled optimism. Some believe they could vote with the court's three liberal justices, Elena Kagan, Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson – who consistently issue dissenting opinions on rightwing rulings – frequently enough on key occasions to form an effective bulwark. But Leah Litman, a law professor at Michigan University and author of a book on the court entitled Lawless: How the Supreme Court Runs on Conservative Grievance, Fringe Theories, and Bad Vibes, is sceptical. A recent ruling upholding the president's firing of the head of the National Labor Relations Board, Gwynne Wilcox, and overturning a 1935 precedent known as Humphrey's Executor – which gave Congress the power to limit a president's ability to remove officials from independent agencies – shows the conservative justice's reverting to type, she said. 'Some people wondered: 'Was the court going to have second thoughts about, for example, their immunity decision giving Donald Trump such leading powers, including powers to act outside of the law and above it?'' Litman argued. 'I think the Wilcox ruling underscored that the answer is definitively no.' Underpinning the conservative justices' approach is the unitary executive theory, which posits that the president has sole authority over government's executive branch, allowing him to fire members of nominally independent agencies without cause. 'They have been pushing this theory for over three decades and now they have a chance to make a pretty muscular version of it the law,' Litman said. 'Chief Justice Roberts and Justice Barrett understand that the court can't let Donald Trump get away with everything, including usurping Congress's power or obviously depriving individuals of due process. But short of that, I don't think they are having any kind of second thoughts about their own views of executive power or about the law more generally.' The few cases of the court standing up to Trump, argues Litman, have been 'overplayed' and pale in importance compared with other rulings that have emboldened the president, including upholding the stripping of temporary protected status from about 300,000 Venezuelans. Greene defined the court's approach as 'formalist' and ill-suited to counter Trump's lawbreaking. He contrasted it with the much bolder ethos under Chief Justice Earl Warren's leadership in the 1950s and 1960s, when the court became renowned for creatively enforcing racial desegregation and civil rights orders in the south. 'Trump's modus operandi is to exploit what he perceives as weaknesses in the system of enforcement and accountability,' Greene said. 'If he thinks that courts are not going to be able to step in, he will try to exploit that as much as he can, unless and until he's stopped by some political actor or an actor with more power. 'The Trump administration is exploiting the formality and the lack of creativity of courts in general, but the supreme court in particular.' The court's writ has already been exposed as limited by Trump's failure to comply with its order to facilitate the return of Ábrego García to the US. According to Greene, the White House's failure to police its own actions to ensure they are in line with the law and the constitution already amounts to a constitutional crisis, because the courts lack the time and resources to counter unbridled violations. That puts added onus on the supreme court to fulfill its role as ultimate arbiter, argues Litman. 'We should continue to demand that they actually do uphold the law,' she said. 'I don't think we should just give up and give in to their inclination to not enforce the law and allow Donald Trump to get away with legal violations. If they don't, force them to expend the capital and pay a price in their public approval rating.'

Easy cakes and bakes for summer, including an elevated fondant fancy
My head is full of flowers and fruit. Every year they come in much the same order: blood oranges, rhubarb, blueberries, gooseberries and strawberries. The stone fruit arrives later, but I can wait (that's part of the pleasure, though I've seen the first apricots from France and Italy and I'm itching to put them in a tart – the edges of the slices becoming caramelised – or in an upside-down cake, the fruit softening to glowing circles that you can glaze with honey). Flowers have an order too. There are primroses – they were out a long time ago in my street – then daffodils, tulips, bluebells and freesias (that scent). It might be because we had a proper spring this year, one with mostly warm weather, that I'm using flowers in baking and desserts much more than usual, and I'm obsessed with colour. Using flowers in baking is not new to me – I've been cooking with rose and orange flower waters and lavender for years – and I don't see it as cloying or 'cute'; it's just a way of making dishes taste and look even more beautiful than they might. My walks right now take me past smells I love even though I rarely know what the plants are (except for the obvious ones). My garden is full of dandelions – it goes a bit meadow-like at this time of year – and tulips. I don't grow anything neatly. It's haphazard and I like it that way. The flower and fruit obsession means I have to restrict my time on Instagram or I can spend hours looking at what bakers and gardeners are creating. There are those who make tarts and cakes of almost mathematical precision – look at what is happening at Lannan Bakery in Edinburgh, with its rhubarb and custard tart of pure clean lines (the poached rhubarb is set in rhubarb jelly). Then look at From Lucie in the East Village in NYC. Lucie Franc de Ferriere, the baker and owner, has a totally different approach. There are few straight lines here; there is abundance, cascades. Discovering her work made me want to go wild. She doesn't, of course, throw flowers at her cakes, but it feels that way. She doesn't care whether the flowers used are edible or not, but I'm not sure, as long as you tell eaters, that this matters. I like delicate things too. The single viola on mauve icing. Every so often I buy fondant fancies. They're beautiful to look at but disappoint when you eat them. You think they'll feel and taste like velvet, but they just taste like sugar. There's no scent and no contrast. The floral iced squares here were my attempt to make fondant fancies, but better. These are lemon-scented and taste like a child's birthday cake, with a smooth buttercream between the sponge layers. Have a look too at the cakes made by Blushing Cook in London, decorated with pressed edible flowers. Going down an internet rabbit hole, I stumbled across a photographer who lives in Maine. Her name is Cig Harvey and she loves cake, flowers and colour. A documentary was made of her work – you can watch it online – called Eat Flowers. One of Harvey's closest friends had leukaemia and was required to isolate. Harvey created a series of photographs for her, using flowers and focusing on colour. Life looked saturated. It was, she said, about finding beauty in unexpected places. She then started photographing cakes and fruit too. There's a dark chocolate cake studded with blackberries, a cherry cake half hidden in a pewter tin, a whole table of fruit and cake, partly demolished and staining the white cloth on which they're spread. This could appear messy but in fact makes you yearn to have arrived in time for the party. She wants us to spend more time looking. Cakes, tarts and desserts aren't necessary. We don't have to eat them. At their best they make you look again, and taste again. They're about beauty and joy.
