Her mother is said to have set up the affair to get her media exposure

The youngest member of the Kardashian clan has to battle recent rumors that her relationship with Jayden Smith was nothing than a publicity stunt set up by her mother, in hopes of getting media attention for her daughter.

The 16-year-old recently went on Twitter to slam the rumors that she and Jaden were a set-up. “The fact that some people actually believe I would waste my time dating someone as a publicity stunt,” an outraged Kylie tweeted.

Hollywood life reports that none of this is an accident, but part of “momager” Kris's plan to push her offspring into the eyes of the media. In order to date one of her girls, a boy needs “to be famous and in the current limelight,” a source tells the website.

Kylie can't just choose her boyfriends as she pleases, since all potential dates have to “meet up with Kris Jenner and she must give her 100 percent blessing. Anyone that is about to date them must provide something more than just compatibility emotionally,” the source elaborates.

The second part of this apparent run for fame is the fact that Kris chose to pair another of her daughter, Kendall, 18, with One Direction singer Harry Styles. The two are now in a relationship after a date was “set up” for media purposes.

All of these moves were done to keep the Kardashian's in the attention of the press. “It's all about the Kardashian brand and Kendall and Kylie have bought into it and use relationships as career builders more than anything else,” says another source.

If this turns out to be true, it's very disturbing and potentially very harming for the young girls who have just started the dating game. Apart from instilling some very unhealthy principles in her daughters, Kris is also literally “pimping out” her children for cash.
