Kylie Jenner Teaches Her Kids a Hilarious Fake-Crying Trick
Sip your coffee fast—I’m bouncing off the walls about Kylie Jenner’s newest mom moment that’s equal parts adorable and LOL-worthy! In a playful Instagram Reel shared June 12 (courtesy of People Magazine and Dotdash Meredith), Kylie recruits daughter Stormi, 7, and son Aire, almost 2, for a dramatic demonstration in “fake crying.” The clip opens on Kylie’s kitchen counter—yes, she filmed it in her glamorous household—and suddenly Stormi’s wailing like she lost her ice cream. Cue Kylie’s trademark smirk as she calmly instructs, “You have to really let the tears flow,” before dropping a masterclass in over-the-top sobbing. Stormi nails the pout, then Kylie pivots to little Aire, who tries his best impression—cue giggles all around.
It’s a wink at parenting reality: teaching your kids the art of melodrama so you can school them in real emotions later. Kylie peppers her narration with side notes (“Mom hack, right?”) and genuine laughs that show she’s not above clowning for her mini-me’s—and her followers. According to People.com, the makeup mogul even captioned the post, “Drama 101 with Mom,” which promptly racked up millions of views within hours. Dotdash Meredith’s feed-agency version confirms the reaction emojis practically exploded: hearts, tears, and countless LOL faces.
If you thought celebrity parenting was all serene pose-and-sip, think again. Kylie lets her guard down here, reminding everyone she’s a mom first, influencer second. Between flash frames of Stormi’s fierce face and Aire’s curious stare, the video doubles as a peek at Jenner home life—no red carpet, no bronzer (okay, maybe a touch) and pure sibling banter. Fans flooded the comments, amazed at Kylie’s patience-plus (“I need her chill level,” wrote one) and her ability to turn a potentially messy meltdown into pure entertainment gold.
This snippet also highlights Kylie’s social media genius: short-form content that feels intimate but still massive in reach. She’s clocking engagements like pros, proving parenting content can be playful, relatable, and brand-friendly all at once. So what’s next for the Jenner household? Will we get a sequel where Kylie directs a full-blown kid soap opera? Only time (and her Instagram Story) will tell. I swear, I could talk about this all day—my caffeine’s on fire now!
