Kendall Jenner Becomes THIRD KarJenner to Get Forbes Cover After Kim Kardashian and Kylie Jenner Do It First as She Talks About Tequila Brand 818 Matching Her ‘Vibe’

Kendall Jenner has landed on the cover Forbes magazine this month for the ‘Special Issue’ called 30 Under 30 for the ‘class of 2023.’

The 28-year-old Vogue model was recognized for her role as an ‘entrepreneur’ as she is the founder of 818 Tequila, a success story since its launch over two years ago.

So far, Kendall is the third member of the Kardashian/Jenner clan to land the prestigious Forbes cover.

Kim Kardashian graced the cover of Forbes in 2016 for being a ‘mobile mogul’ with her online games that made her a fortune.

Kylie Jenner did it in 2018 because she made $1 billion from Kylie Cosmetics, although there was an uproar over the fact that she wasn’t quite a billionaire yet, as the publication claimed at the time. The magazine later claimed they were tricked into believing she was a billionaire, but soon after, Kylie officially crossed the B mark and all was forgotten.

A star doesn’t have to be a billionaire to land on the cover of Forbes, just demonstrate business savvy.

Kendall – who is worth $60 million according to Celebrity Net Worth – fits into this picture because 818 has taken off internationally.

In her cover story, she talked about making sure the brand had superior quality that didn’t rely on her star power to sell.

“I wanted the liquid and the brand to stand alone and for people to love it without me even having to be a part of it because I just wanted it to be that good,” said the native Calabasas.

And she also shared that her mother Kris Jenner would manage her career, which can be difficult at times.

“My mom is obviously my mom, but she’s also my manager,” began the supermodel, who calls her best friends Gigi Hadid and Hailey Bieber.

Jenner then got more specific: “We have moments where we’re on the phone talking about business, maybe having a heated conversation about something, and then all of a sudden she’s like, ‘Okay, I like How are you feeling today?’ and I’m like, ‘Oh my god, yeah, you’re my mom too!’

Kris also manages her siblings Kourtney, Kim, Khloe, Rob and Kylie.

The TV star said she was careful about selecting the type of business she would launch in 2021.

“I find myself to be a very goal-oriented person,” Jenner said, meaning she didn’t rush into 818 blindly.

“I don’t want to do anything that doesn’t align with my feelings, or my morals, or my feelings and things that really make me feel good and make me feel excited to wake up in the morning,” she said.

“And I had to work to get to that place, which wasn’t always easy.”

And even though she’s not even in her 30s yet, Jenner had some advice for her younger self, which is to slow down and enjoy her life, which makes sense since she’s suffered from anxiety in recent years about the pressure of her busy life. .

That advice is: ‘Stop and smell the roses when you can, no matter how cheesy that sounds. But I would also say to her: enjoy the ride, it will be a beautiful ride.’

818 Tequila is sustainably produced from one hundred percent Weber Blue agaves and has three varieties: Blanco, Reposado and Anejo.

According to the Tequila Brand Family Ranking Report, 818 Tequila became the best-selling new tequila brand of 2021 in the United States in its first year.

On their launch day in California in May 2021, 818 sold out online in less than four hours, with retailers across California reporting that Blanco allotments sold out on the first day of sale.

From the 1% give back to the planet to partnering with local family-owned businesses in Jalisco, Mexico and sustainable suppliers, 818 Tequila embodies a consumer ethos.

The brand is produced using traditional methods in Jalisco, Mexico, at a family distillery and has won 16 blind tasting awards in six major industry competitions.
