WASHINGTON: Kylie Jenner, 21, has become the world’s youngest self-made billionaire, overtaking Mark Zuckerberg, according to Forbes billionaires’ list.

The 21-year-old founded and owns Kylie Cosmetics, she founded three years ago, that generated an estimated $360m in sales last year.

She reached the milestone earlier than Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg who became a billionaire aged 23.

“I didn’t expect anything. I did not foresee the future. But [the recognition] feels really good. That’s a nice pat on the back,” Ms Jenner told Forbes.
