Businesswoman Kylie Jenner has responded to Forbes revoking her youngest billionaire status today over accusation of inflating the company income.
Jenner addressed the report on Friday on Twitter, where she accused Forbes of “inaccurate statements and unproven assumptions”.
“What am I even waking up to. I thought this was a reputable site… All I see are a number of inaccurate statements and unproven assumptions lol. I’ve never asked for any title or tried to lie my way there EVER. Period,” the Keeping Up with the Kardashians star wrote.
In follow-up tweets, Jenner quoted the report and questioned the validity of Forbes’ proof, before telling her more than 33.7m followers that there are “things more important right now than fixating on how much money I have”.
She tweeted: “‘Even creating tax returns that were likely forged’ That’s your proof? So you just THOUGHT they were forged? Like actually what am I reading.
“But okay. I am blessed beyond my years, I have a beautiful daughter, and successful business and I’m doing perfectly fine.
“I can name a list of 100 things more important right now than fixating on how much money I have.”
In a statement, spokesperson for Forbe said its reporters spent “months uncovering the facts”.
“Today’s extensively-reported investigation was triggered by newly-filed documents that revealed glaring discrepancies between information privately supplied to journalists and information publicly supplied to shareholders,” the spokesperson said.
“Our reporters spotted the inaccuracies and spent months uncovering the facts.”
