People Are “Sad” For Kendall Jenner’s “Lack Of Basic Life Skills” After Her Inability To Slice A Cucumber Sparked A Conversation About Privilege

As the daughter of Olympic gold medalist Caitlyn Jenner and super savvy businesswoman Kris Jenner, Kendall Jenner was always destined for a life of immense privilege.

And it’s safe to say that her career has been pretty successful, with Kendall now an established model as well as a regular face on her family’s new show, The Kardashians.

With the ever-increasing money and fame that came the Kar-Jenners’ way over the past 15 years, their lifestyles got more and more luxurious as the family added private jets, private chefs, and several assistants to their payrolls.

As Kendall awkwardly began to cut the cucumber, she repositioned it several times before telling the camera crew: “I’m definitely not a good cutter, so don’t zoom in on me. I’m not professional whatsoever.”

Visibly worried, Kris then called for her chef to come and cut the cucumber on Kendall’s behalf, but Kendall shut down the suggestion and maintained that she could do it herself.

Unsurprisingly, the bizarre moment quickly went viral as viewers shared their bemusement at the 26-year-old star’s battle with such a basic task.

Even Kendall poked fun at herself, retweeting a fan that had written, “Kendall Jenner trying to cut a fcking cucumber is the most tragic thing I’ve ever witnessed,” and adding: “Tragic!”

In fact, many commentators have called the entire situation “sad” as they admitted that Kendall’s lack of basic life skills made them grateful to have had a normal upbringing.

“The way Kendall Jenner cut a cucumber… the way they can’t do basic everyday things is so sad,” one person tweeted. Another reacted: “Holy hell. No basic skills. I’m glad I didn’t grow up with a platinum spoon in my mouth.”

“At this point, I’m a pretty good cook,” she added. “Kylie and I were super lucky to have guidance from our older sisters and a mom who really has her shit together. They all gave me solid advice on how to set up my kitchen and bath for maximum efficiency.”
