But there's nothing typical about the Kardashians: Matriarch "momager" Kris Jenner is drawing fire for allowing Kendall, 16, and Kylie, 14 — her daughters with second husband Bruce — to be photographed in precociously sexy attire.
Do a Google image search and you'll find pages of bare skin, such as in Kendall's erotically-charged swimwear spreads for the Australian brand White Sands, and Flavor, a Parisian magazine that, uh, has nothing to do with recipes.
"Kris totally encourages it," an insider tells OK!. "She's proud that Kendall and Kylie are so sexy."
Big sister Kim — who, after all, first earned fame in a sex video made with ex-beau Ray J — is proud, too.
