“I’m always putting out fires all day every day”: Kris Jenner Calls Herself the Kardashian Fireman as She’s on 24/7 Damage Control Mode To Clean Up After Her Daughters Mess Up
The Kardashian-Jenner clan is no stranger to controversies. Yet they still manage to be relevant in today’s media. The sole reason and mastermind behind all of the sister’s lucrative careers without actual proper talents is Kris Jenner herself. Behind every success, and every failure the momager is truly there for her kids no matter what.
The only talent of the talentless kids is making clickable headlines that will capture people’s attention without fail. When it comes to marketing the lady is truly a legend. Let’s “get Krised” and learn about Kris Jenner’s way of containing the constant wildfire from getting out of control.
Kris Jenner’s contribution.
When you think of a fireman, Kris Jenner isn’t the one who pops up in your head but she truly is deserving of the title. The lady has been managing her children’s careers for years now and it is not at all easy. Her kids — son Rob Kardashian and daughters Kourtney, Kim, and Khloé Kardashian and Kendall and Kylie Jenner have their careers with a distinct set of problems and yet somehow Kris Jenner has managed to keep them all a household name.
“First of all I think when it’s your child you go over and above anything that would be required of you if you were just a proper person getting a typical paycheck,” says the momager.
“I’m kind of on call 24/7, which happens constantly,”
“I feel like a fireman because I’m always putting out fires all day every day, on some levels,” she added.
Some might think the Keeping Up With The Kardashians stars got lucky, but they will be quite wrong as Kris Jenner is living proof that all of it is the result of her hard work and not just mere luck. It is no joke, it gets very challenging at times.
The absolute PR genius
From managing Kim Kardashian and Kanye West’s wedding and filtering all the positive attention to the show to establishing a billion-dollar company for Kylie Jenner just based on a hobby. This wedding turned a B-list celebrity into an A-list one. She truly can pull off anything. The perfect way to capitalize on a scandal and then turn the audience to their side is an art people rarely master.
The goldmine of knowledge she holds is out of this world. Here are some that she shared with WSJ Magazine during her interview.
“I was always such a people pleaser and wanted everyone to be happy and that can take away from things you really want to do.” she advises not to be a people pleaser if one really wishes to stay in this industry for the long run.
Secondly, determination and the power to go after a particular goal. This job is certainly not for faint-hearted people. Also, Kris Jenner asks everyone to stop worrying about their age. No age is neither the right one to start nor the wrong one, there is no “perfect” age to figure one’s career out.
“In the mid to late 90s, I was having more kids and trying to establish what my career path would be. When you think about it, I started filming Keeping Up With The Kardashians when I was 52 years old,” says Kris Jenner.
Collaborating with influential people and brands not only helped her kids but also the “Kardashian-Jenner” brand to grow into the monster that it is today.
Kris Jenner is the jack of all trades, and master of it all too.
