When the KarJenners hit reality show Keeping Up With the Kardashians premiered on E in 2007 Kylie Jenner — the youngest of the clan — was just 9 years old

With little say in the matter Kylie was inevitably thrust into the spotlight as the series took off and she ended up having some pretty ~memorable~ moments captured on camera

In fact the early seasons of KUWTK documented the trials and tribulations of Kylie s preteen years and adolescence — from her first time experimenting with makeup to several awkward clashes with her parents

But as she grew older Kylie — perhaps unsurprisingly — began to appear more and more uncomfortable with her family s fame-filled lifestyle and lo and behold ended up claiming she wasn t supposed to be famous during a 2016 episode

I feel like I ve had anxiety for too long I feel too much I care too much I read too much she told elder sister Kim Some people are born for this life and some people aren t I just know I m not supposed to be famous

A year later Kylie got candid about the subject once more during a conversation with her then–best friend Jordyn Woods in her spinoff series Life of Kylie I don t want my picture taken I don t want people to see what outfit I m wearing she said Every time there s paparazzi I cover my face

And in more recent years Kylie has continued to prove that she s still not the biggest fan of the spotlight having famously kept the birth of her first daughter Stormi a secret from the entire world — much to the contrary of her sisters who documented their pregnancies and even gave birth on Keeping Up

Now 25 and a mom of two Kylie is a successful billionaire and business mogul But despite gaining fresh popularity with her emergence on TikTok Kylie has continued to appear uncomfortable with the limelight

Not only does the young star rarely attend red carpets alone instead often accompanied by 4-year-old Stormi but she virtually never sits down for interviews without her mom Kris Jenner by her side

And so when an awkward clip of Kylie at Paris Fashion Week surfaced online on Thursday it wasn t long before fans were reminded of her complicated relationship with the spotlight

After quickly embracing creative director Olivier Rousteing whom she s friends with fans said that Kylie — who was seemingly only accompanied by BFF Stassie Karanikolaou — looked so shy and nervous as she stood with her hands in front of her and peered around

And when the clip in question was later posted into a Reddit forum more people agreed with the discourse

Dude can we stop making this girl go places another person echoed Like clearly she doesn t feel comfortable And obviously it has a huge effect on her mental health

Meanwhile some fans said that it was refreshing to see such a huge public figure act just as awkward and uncomfortable as any other person while suggesting that the clip served as a strong reminder that Kylie is after all only human
