Kendall Jenner, 16, Will Make Her Acting Debut On Hawaii Five-0
Kris Jenner is pushing Kendall Jenner into following the rest of the family’s business ventures.
The 16-year-old is a lower-paid co-star on Keeping Up With The Kardashians, the family’s tentpole, although she and 14-year-old Kylie Jenner apparently landed their own spin-off and jewelry line so their mother can better monetize the show’s young following (Kim Kardashian has teenage fans, but her next major birthday is 40 and she’s thinking about marriage and kids, and divorce, and other things that aren’t relatable to that age range).
Kendall Jenner nor her younger sister will attend college so they can instead pursue modeling careers based on their show rather than their proportions and their bone structures (it’s neither here nor there being thin and pretty if you don’t have the face to model). And the sisters will expand their young brand however is needed to pad the bottom line. Which, in this instance, means breaking into acting too. Life & Style Magazine has an exclusive that the 16-year-old landed her first acting job, on Hawaii Five-O. It sounds like a one-off cameo.
Kendall is set to make her acting debut in an episode of CBS’ Hawaii Five-0, a CBS rep confirms exclusively to Life & Style.
The 16-year-old will play a sales assistant in an episode due to air in October. Taping, which is happening in the next few weeks, will take place in Hawaii.
Because the budding actress is a minor, at least one of her parents, Bruce and Kris Jenner, will have to accompany her. At this stage, it is not known whether her role is for one episode or if it will be a recurring role. – via Life & Style Magazine.
