Kendall Jenner is getting candid about what her life was like growing up in the spotlight, as well as the challenges of being a teen model.
During a recent appearance on the Anything Goes podcast, the supermodel and media personality compared growing up in the public eye on Keeping Up With the Kardashians to the life of Hannah Montana, Miley Cyrus’ character on the hit Disney Channel show.
It’s a little Hannah Montana-y in a way,” Jenner told host Emma Chamberlain. “[But] I didn’t have a disguise, or I didn’t have a physical shift.”
Hannah Montana, which ran from 2006 to 2011 for four seasons, followed Miley Stewart’s (Cyrus) adventures as a typical teenager who also has a secret identity as a famous pop star, Hannah Montana.
We went to school. We went to school as long as we could,” she continued. “I started home school, 11th and 12th grade … so even though we had a TV show at home, we were going to regular school all day and had our friends that we had from before the show started.”
Jenner noted that while her life wasn’t “always easy,” being on camera from a young age, “it did feel kind of normal,” adding, “We lived as much of a normal life as, I think, was possible and I’m so grateful for that.”
