My mother cut me off financially three years ago: Kylie Jenner

Los Angeles: Reality TV star Kylie Jenner has revealed that she has been paying her own bills for years.

"My mom cut me off financially three years ago. I pay for everything ? my car, my gas, and food, as well as my clothes," she said.

The 17-year-old model finds the money to pay for said expenses with her own growing empire, reported Us magazine.

In addition to her appearances on Keeping Up With the Kardashians and its accompanying spinoff shows, Jenner now serves as a brand ambassador for a skincare, has a collection at clothing website and a book called "Rebels: City of Indra" with sister Kendall Jenner, and various branded products including nail polishes, jewellery, and shoes.

Following in her famous sisters' footsteps, Jenner has become a bit of a fashion icon among her teen fans.

"I think my style is a little bit darker thanks to my mom. There are a lot of skulls around her house and the furniture is mostly black and white. She wears a lot of black too.

"I think that's definitely rubbed off on me... Feel like I dress like Khloe on my down days and Kim when I'm going out. If I'm just running out I'll throw on a cute T-shirt, a pair of leggings and my Timberland boots. If I'm dressing up I love Celine and Saint Laurent, or for accessories Alaia, Givenchy or Gianvito Rossi."
