First THAT wheelchair photo, now this? Kylie tells fans she’s ‘wasted’
It's been a solid 24 hours of controversy for Kylie Jenner, which kicked off with a very questionable photo shoot and finished with some seriously bizarre Snapchat videos.
The reality star appears in a new photo spread for Interview magazine, which sees her donning a solid metal bustier, a PVC cone bra and a black bobbed wig.
One photo in particular, part of a selection of cover images for the magazine's December/January issue, shows the 18-year-old sitting in a black and gold wheelchair.
Unsurprisingly, the photo has garnered some criticism online, with some readers slamming the use of a wheelchair as a "fashion statement."
Oh I see! When I'm in my wheelchair noone can look me in the eye but when Kylie Jenner sits in a wheelchair it's FASHION. silly me.

In its defence, Interview argued that the photoshoot was an artistic attempt at "placing Kylie in a variety of positions of power and control and exploring her image as an object of vast media scrutiny."
Later on, the teen courted more controversy when she posted a bizarre Snapchat video showing herself and her pal Jordyn Woods getting 'wasted'… though Kylie was quick to point out they were just drinking (non-alcoholic) sparkling cider.
Shortly afterwards, Kylie shared a series of sped-up videos in which she and Jordyn repeatedly shouted, "Don't do drugs!" while laughing.
Just yesterday, the KUWTK showed a more human side when she revealed for her Interview cover chat that she lived in constant fear of reading negative stories about herself.
"I have, like, a problem. I wake up every morning at, like, seven or eight because I think that there’s a bad story about me, and I have to check," she said.
"My worst fear is waking up and finding something bad about me on the Internet.
"I deleted everything off of my phone for the night, and it was nice, but I don’t want to, like, restrain myself."
