Kylie Jenner is on GQ's cover with Travis Scott, and it’s confusing the heck out of fans.

When GQ released their August issue featuring Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott on the cover, there was one glaring detail fans simply could not wrap their heads around.

While 26-year-old rapper Travis is pictured sitting on an office chair wearing a pinstripe suit, Kylie – the 20-year-old “self-made” multi-millionaire is sitting on his lap, wearing a tiny one-piece swimsuit.

Now it’s 2018 and we accept the notion of power dressing as extending beyond a pantsuit, and we embrace a woman owning her sexuality and body, but it still left fans feeling unsure.

It’s believed the shot was perhaps referencing an iconic 2007 Vanity Fair cover which featured Sopranos creator David Chase and James Gandolfini (who played Tony Soprano in the hit TV show), with an unidentified and barely clothed woman draped on Gandolfini.

 

However contextually, the two covers don’t line up.

Kylie was recently tipped by Forbes as being on track to becoming the world’s youngest billionaire – she’s no glorified human prop.

Styling issues aside, social media users were also annoyed that GQ dubbed Travis and Kylie “a powerhouse power couple.” Something else which got a lot of Twitter debate.

What about Kylie Jenner’s scar?

Also confusing fans was the origin of Kylie’s scar, which can be prominently seen on her leg.

According to People, this was from a childhood accident, which the beauty mogul once explained during a Q&A in 2011.

I love my scar

“When I was about 5 my sister and I were playing hide and seek and I hid inside this really tall-enclosed gate,” she said.

“After a while when my sister didn’t find me I had to climb up on this sharp pole sticking out from the gate. I slipped and the pole went into my leg. I tried pulling away to get the pole out but it just tore through my whole leg.”

“It’s smaller now though because I grew!”

Since then, Kylie has also posted on social media about how much she ‘loves’ her scar.
