From reality TV to global dominance, Kris Jenner’s reign shows no signs of slowing. What began as a family docuseries has evolved into one of the most lucrative and culturally influential empire in modern media; all engineered by her relentless vision.

When Kris Jenner turned 70, Hollywood didn’t just celebrate her birthday; it practically revolved around it. The self proclaimed “momager,” matriarch, and businesswoman of the Kardashian-Jenner empire threw a 0070 James Bond-themed soirée that looked less like a party and more like a summit of global influence.

The guest list alone could have broken the internet: Beyoncé and Jay-Z, Oprah Winfrey, Mariah Carey, Kim Kardashian, Kylie Jenner, Khloé Kardashian, Kendall Jenner, Kourtney Kardashian-Barker, Tyler Perry, Jeff Bezos, Lauren Sánchez, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, Toni Braxton, Justin Bieber and Hailey Bieber, Stevie Wonder, Alicia Keys, Ciara, Tina Knowles, Bill Gates, Chris Rock, the entire All’s Fair cast including Sarah Paulson, Glenn Close, Niecy Nash, Naomi Watts, Teyana Taylor and Ryan Murphey, Meghan Trainor, Mark Zuckerberg, Martha Stewart, Gayle King, Vaness Bryant, and of course Corey Gamble and more.

If power if measured by who shows up when you call, the Kris Jenner might just be the most powerful woman in Hollywood.

The party, hosted by Bezos and Sáchez’s 110 million dollar Beverly Hills mansion, was pure spectacle. Think chandeliera, tuxedos, martinis, and a performance by Bruno Mars. But beyond the glamour, there was a message. This was a gathering of people who move culture, capital, and conversation; and at the center was Kris Jenner. Her 70th birthday wasn’t just a milestone. It was a reminder of how far her influence reaches, from reality TV to fashion, beauty, tech, and entertainment.

Kris Jenner’s story is one of sheer strategy. She didn’t just stumble into fame; she manufactured it. Since Keeping Up With The Kardashians premiered in 2007, she has turned her family’s name into one of the most recognizable brands on the planet. She built an empire where each daughter represent a thriving business sector: Kim with SKIMS, Kylie with Kylie Cosmetics, Khloé with Good American, Kendall with modelling and fashion, and Kourtney in lifestyle. Jenner herself takes a 10% cut as their manager, but her real profit comes from what she’s built; an unstopptable machine that monetizes attention.

It’s easy to underestimate Kris Jenner’s power because she’s not a studio executive or a politician. She doesn’t run a media conglomerate. But what she controls might be even more valuable: narrative, networking, and opportunity. For nealy two decades, she’s managed to keep her family at the center of pop culture, no matter what the world was talking about. Scandal, heartbreak, divorce, rebranding; Jenner knows how to turn all of it into a storyline, and more importantly, into profit.

Her influence is no longer confined to reality TV. She and her family are now embedded in the very fabric of modern media. They shape beauty standards, dominate social media trends, and drive billions of dollars in consumer spending. The Kardashians don’t just participate in Hollywood; they set the tone for it. And Kris is the mastermind behind it all.

Her 70th birthday drove the point home.

This wasn’t just an evening of nostalgia and celebration; it was a flex of power. She is the Anna Winter of Hollywood. Imagine Beyoncé and Jay-Z mingling with Oprah, Bezos, and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex; all gathered to celebrate her. That’s not mere celebrity, it’s cultural command. The fact that the world’s most elite entertainers, entrepreneurs, and royals attended shows how seamlessly Jenner has blurred the lines between Hollywood, business, and high society.

Some might argue she’s not “the most powerful” woman in Hollywood in the traditional sense, After all, she doesn’t run a studio or own a streaming platform. But in a digital age where influence trumps infrastructure, Kris Jenner stands alone.

She built her empire without a network boss, without corporate backing, and without a busband in the driver’s seat. She built it herself; one deal, one storyline, one daughter at a time. Side note, I also want to give Kim the credit for establishing the Kardashian name in the first place giving Kris the start she needed to create an empire.

Turning 70 hasn’t slowed her down either. If anything, it’s solidified her legacy. Jenner has proven that she’s more than just the matriarch of the famous family; she’s a businesswoman who redefined fame as a brand, family as an enterprise, and influence as power.

So, is Kris Jenner the most powerful woman in Hollywood? Maybe not on paper. But when the biggest names in entertainment, business, and royalty all show up for you, it’s hard to argue otherwise. In an industry built on illusion, Kris Jenner has mastered reality; and that might just be the greatest power of all.
