Kendall Jenner may be one of the stars of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, but don't expect her to be the star of her own program anytime soon.

The 17-year-old, who appears in the May issue of Cosmopolitan, opens up about what she's focusing on right now.

"Not a reality-show spin-off," Jenner insists. "That's not happening. Modeling is my number one priority—one hundred percent."

And while she certainly appreciates the fact that her TV exposure has indeed opened doors for her, Jenner says being in the public eye can often come at a price.

"The show brought us everything we have, and I realize that, but sometimes I just want to be left alone and be a normal kid for like five minutes," she says. "That's tough when the paparazzi are chasing you."

Fortunately, Jenner has a great support system in the form of her family, even when it comes to dating.

"Lamar is really good at giving guy advice," Jenner says about sister Khloé's husband. "He always tells me to know my worth and never accept less than I deserve."
