As seen in this episode, the Kardashian-Jenners are the type of people who hug their dermatologist like he’s a close personal friend, which, given that he holds their livelihood in his well-manicured hands, he is. In fact, the entire episode (besides a boring sub-plot where Kourtney and Scott argued about interior decorating) was devoted to the sisters, their various obsessions with their bodies and faces, and how a lot of their issues are because of all the scrutiny placed upon them. Not explicitly mentioned was how they’ve created their empire by literally shoving said bodies into the limelight as “looks” worth striving for.
“When you are photographed all the time, it’s natural to have insecurities and wanna change stuff about yourself,” Khloe said. The rest of the episode was hell-bent on representing the family like their plan of attack is to be open and honest about all things, when in fact their openness and honesty is always carefully curated.
The sisters all had different takes on plastic surgery and Kylie’s look in particular. “The lips changed her life,” Khloe said, acknowledging how the attention, even when it’s negative, improves and builds upon their family brand. At the same time, her other sisters did quick work to make it clear that it’s not all easy being a Kardashian. “Kylie has always been so insecure about her lips, since she was a little girl,” said Kim (perhaps because, as Kylie admitted later, she’s been photographed on a national scale since the that young age).
