Kylie Jenner is facing a backlash from social media users for bragging about her and boyfriend Travis Scott’s private jets and using his for short flights.
The @CelebJets Twitter account posted Jenner’s plane route after flying from Camarillo, Calif., to Van Nuys, Calif., last Tuesday, estimating the trip would take just three minutes instead of a 45-minute drive.
The page clarified later that the total flight time ended up being 17 minutes.
While the Twitter feed normally lists the pounds of jet fuel used, fuel cost and tons of CO2 emissions, it didn’t for Jenner’s ride.
Three days after the quick flight, the reality star, 24, posted a black and white photo of her and Scott, 31, posing in front of their private jets.
“Do you want to take mine or yours? she boldly captioned the Instagram post on Friday.
Social media users later slammed Jenner on Twitter and Instagram for to be a “full-time climate criminal”.
“I can’t wait to see Kylie Jenner post environmental awareness photos on her stories like she’s not single-handedly doing more damage to the environment than most of us with her 3-minute flights “, a A Twitter user wrote.
Another added“Every time a paper straw starts dissolving in my drink, I think of how Kylie Jenner uses a private jet for 3 minute flights and I get angry. »
On Instagram, a user took to Jenner’s comments section to ask, “Who[e] the plane should [use to] are we polluting the earth today?
Another wondered: “But what about the fight against climate change?
A third follower wrote, “Why do I have to limit my meat intake and use paper straws when the 1% manages to pump tons of carbon into the atmosphere for a day trip to Palm Springs? »
Jenner, who has previously been mocked for making average runs inspiring, has yet to address the controversy.
The ‘Kardashians’ star came under fire in 2019 when she picked up her sister Kendall Jenner for dinner on her jet.
When many Twitter users slammed the siblings for not taking first class flights instead, some stepped up to defend Kylie and the 26-year-old model.
“There is no way KYLIE JENNER AND KENDALL JENNER are taking first class flights,” one fan wrote. “These female dogs are BEYOND FAMOUS, they would get mobbed. If you could afford a private jet, you would too.
