Shining Star Kendall Jenner Deletes Her Instagram AccountSMU SMC

Kendall Jenner, otherwise known as the 2016 Coachella Social Media Queen, takes a break from social media and deletes her Instagram account.

The world mourns as Kendall Jenner deletes her Instagram account. Her social media absence immediately takes a toll on a great amount of individuals. Fans who enjoy checking her social media accounts on a daily basis do not know what to do. It does however seem mysterious that a 21-year-old supermodel with millions of Instagram followers would do such a thing.

Why Did She Do It?

Kendall Jenner, otherwise known as the Coachella Social Media Queen, deletes her Instagram account for a variety of reasons.

Jenner explains why in an interview with Ellen DeGeneres. She says, “I just wanted to detox and wanted a little bit of a break. I would wake up in the morning and I would look at it first thing, and I would go to bed and it was the last thing that I would look at. I felt a little too dependent on it, so I kinda wanted to take a minute. It’s a detox. I’ll be back.”

Hopefully some good can come out of Jenner deleting her Instagram account. Celebrities are human too. Unfortunately, people seem to forget that. Jenner’s fans need to realize that she has a life of her own and that she occasionally needs a break from things like Instagram.

Jenner says, “It’s really nice and I suggest it. I’m away from my phone so much more. You start to engage in real life and how you have to deal with real people right in front of you, so it’s kind of really nice to be away from it even if it’s just Instagram.”

So what is the lesson to be learned? As great as social media is, everyone deserves a break from it every once in a while. Even celebrities.
