If you thought it was just the general public had an issue with Kylie Jenner being named a ‘self-made’ billionaire by Forbes magazine, you were wrong.
It seems like someone else has major beef with KJ, and it’s the damn dictionary.
YUP!
You see, the world wasn’t here for Forbes labeling her ‘self-made’ as they believe her success is owed to the family she was born into.

We’re sure used to seeing people shade KJ online… but we never expected the dictionary to get involved.
The Twitter account for Dictionary.com made their voice heard after tweeting Kylie’s Forbes cover, writing, “Self-made means having succeeded in life unaided.
“Used in a sentence: Forbes says that Kylie Jenner is a self-made woman.”
DAMN.
