Is Kim Kardashian the reason why Kylie Jenner has been changing her appearance so much lately? That's what the reality television star herself is insisting, as Kim recently revealed that she encouraged her little sister to get lip injections to help boost her self confidence while being in the public eye.

In a new interview with People this past week, Kim made the revelation while promoting her new coffee table book, Selfish. She also said that the 17-year-old has been insecure about her lips since she was 10 years old.

Speaking about her sister Kylie, Kim said, "I saw how for so many years she was so insecure about [her lips]. I mean, at 10 years old, she would say to me, 'How come my lips aren't big like you guys?' And I would see this insecurity ... For me, I gave her advice and I still stand by that advice. I think it changed her confidence so much."

Just recently, Kylie herself has admitted to gaining weight recently.

According to Perez Hilton last Sunday, the Keeping Up With The Kardashians star made the revelation by sharing a behind-the-scenes photo of herself at a photo shoot. In the pic, Kylie is getting her hair and makeup done and is wearing a one-piece black suit. In the now deleted comment, she wrote, ""Behind the scenes. (yes I gained weight there I said it so u don't have too) :)."

Many of her Instagram followers commented with, "All of you guys are saying she looks fat ... so what if she gained a little weight she looks f---ing perfect to me our society is so messed up on what we're supposed to look like ! She's doing wayyy better than yall and looks great! So stop hating."

Another one wrote, "Cheesy fan moment but I think you are beautiful just the way you are! Haters are going to hate but they need to get over themselves and pay attention to their own life! Props to you for living in the lime light I couldn't do it!"
