As one of the most followed celebrities on Instagram, Kylie Jenner's social media posts often attract thousands of comments. However many of the reality TV star's fans used her photos as a platform to promote their own profiles - and Kylie has had enough.
The 18-year-old revealed on Wednesday that she has decided to block users from commenting on her photos in a bid to stop the trend for writing "LB" or like back on her pictures.
