That family backing reportedly helped Kylie feel comfortable stepping into a role usually associated with established Victoria’s Secret Angels.
But not everyone backstage was said to be celebrating.
Some veteran models were reportedly unhappy that Kylie became the center of attention
Kylie’s selection was reportedly kept under wraps for months. When some longtime models learned she had been chosen for the Fantasy Bra, sources claimed they were “speechless.”
One insider told the Daily Mail that certain veteran models weren’t pleased to see Kylie take the spotlight.
“Some of the old-school models were not thrilled that Kylie was the center of attention,” the source said.
The insider suggested that some established stars may have felt frustrated watching a younger celebrity receive such a prominent moment.
“Kylie is not a model; she’s a billionaire cosmetics mogul,” the source added, claiming some veterans may have wondered why she was chosen over experienced runway talent.
