Kylie Jenner accused of 'PR stunt' as she shops at Target after private jet backlash

Kylie Jenner has been accused of staging a trip to discount store Target as she tries to prove she lives a 'normal’ life following the backlash over her private jet.

The 24-year-old almost-billionaire posted a TikTok video pushing her daughter Stormi and nieces Chicago and True, all four, in a shopping trolley.

She is heard asking: “Where are we going girls?” to which the cousins reply in unison: “Target!”

As they walk through the homeware section, The Kardashians star says: “You guys don’t want to get any bowls?”

“No!” they all say together. “Whaaaat?” Kylie exclaims in the video.

Unsurprisingly, it seems the girls are way more interested in the toy section, which was where they headed to next.

Although some fans praised the “cute” clip, which has already been liked more than two million times, others suggested it was all a 'PR stunt'.

It comes after Kylie was branded a “climate criminal” for taking a 12 minute flight in her private jet instead of driving 45 minutes.

Kylie travelled on her luxury ‘Kylie Air’ jet twice on July 13, and then again on July 15.

Commenting on the TikTok video documenting her recent Target trip, one social user joked: “Is this where she flew to?”

“When you’re so rich it became exciting to go to Target,” said another, while a third wrote: “When Kylie enters it’s called Targé.”

Others questioned whether she had hired the store out for the ‘stunt’ in a bid to look relatable.

“Did u rent out target for this real question,” said one TikTok user.

“Did they close the store for y’all,” said another.

“In their middle class era,” a third person commented.

“Nothing but a PR MOVE!” said a fourth.

While a fifth added: “This is just to distract from the fact she takes private planes instead of a 45 minute drive.”

The Target store itself even commented, jokingly saying: “The year is 2042. Kardashians is on its 20th season with Hulu. On this episode Stormi, Chi and True go to Target to get the bowls.”

Kylie bought the plane, which has two link lines down either side and pink tips on the wings, in 2020.

The jet has since been kitted out with a double bed, full bar and every seat has a Hermès blanket on it.

Reacting to the news she had used it to take a 12 minute journey, one critic raged: “Kylie Jenner: full time climate criminal. These jets should never be allowed to take off."

A second added: "This should be illegal wtf" while a third said: "This is gross."
